    What do you use telmisartan for other than BP, aldosterone inhibition for water retention?

    Sorry for the repeat but could I have an answer?

    I would like to know more about that too, everybody goes on and on about different esters making the substance act like a different drug altogether but in my head all an ester does is affect the time of accumulation and withdrawal.

    Ok it seems there was all the reason to get blamed. I see I was wrong and won’t do it again, will respect the time and energy he takes to coach me too. Apparently there is a huge difference getting shredded and getting stage ready, which I will have to also respect. Thank you guys, I needed this “tough talk”

    He did explain that flexible dieting is okay when it comes to just getting a very lean physique, however right now that I am in prep for a bodybuilding show everything should be very consistent like having the same predetermined meals as the variables will stay consistent like that.

    March 19, 2026 at 10:18 pm in reply to: Usage of Steroids, T3 and Clen for a bb show in 12 weeks.

    Me either I would leave the npp and just run test and masteron personally if you have just previously ran 1g for the powerlifting meet. You have room to have your drugs a touch higher if bloods are good for 12 weeks. But I would just run test and masteron

    Test 50mg daily (350mg/wk)
    Masteron you could run up to 100mg daily (700mg/wk) for me.

    Clen I would start at a low dose

    T3 I would base of bloods around 6-8 weeks out if you stay experiencing any metabolic down regulation

    Thank you for the answer, it was pretty detailed. Ironically 350 test for me is quite high without an e2 reducing compound (I am one of those yes…). Last time I tried it around 300-350mg I was 8-10kg less muscles and 2-3% higher body fat though. That is the reason why I suggested 100npp instead of adding more test, as I have 0 sides and 0 prolactin or e2 increase, yet it’s a “wet” compound providing some joint protection for my heavy lifts now that I am reaching low body fat.

  • If blood work is all fine now then arguably you are fine to go on cycle so if 12 weeks is the only show you can do then so be it.

    I would want to start cycle soon as. What do you intend to do to control E2 or do you know these doses will be totally fine ?

    T3/ clen you start if and when you need to based off how much per week you need to drop from your calculations and how aggressive you need to be from the start

    Bloodwork just came back, everything is perfect, hdl is back in the 60s. Creatinine, sgot, sgpt however are high, respectively 2.0, 50,54.

    This is a mid cycle I know I can tolerate perfectly without any sides nor need for e2 control

    Can you not pick up generic GH that’s £1- £1.20 an iu ? Then you can take a proper dose and it’s going to cost you £6-7 a day

    Buying direct from china I’m paying 50-60p per iu[/quote]

    https://www.instagram.com/leventiskiriakos?igsh=YWNnM2hrNnE4b280 is my insta, could you dm me a legit source as I tried someone and got scammed?

    March 7, 2026 at 10:26 pm in reply to: Why is T4 usage necesary with HGH?

    T4 is responsible for other mechanisms and not just to convert to t3.

    However it’s in range and t3 is in a good spot then I see no direct need to add t4 in

    Even though my t4 was in the low low end?

    March 5, 2026 at 4:21 pm in reply to: Refeed/High carb day timing

    Re-feeds are most useful once you’ve been dieting long enough for energy levels to drop significantly enough to affect your training performance and mood. They’re essentially 1-2 days (depending on how lean you are, how long you’ve been dieting and how much stress your body is under) of extra calories, mainly from carbohydrates. This will top up glycogen stores, steady hunger hormones and restore performance, without affecting fat loss. Signs that you may need a re-feed would be strength or pumps dropping across multiple sessions, feeling unusually flat or depleted, persistent hunger, increased irritability, low mood and disrupted sleep. A weight loss stall that lasts over a week, despite consistent adherence could also be a reason to implement a re-feed.

    If you simply want to stay in a deficit, but organise your meals to be most beneficial to performance, then I would prioritise your higher carb meals pre, intra and post training. (Depending on digestion, what time you train and what suits you best in terms of performance, you may prefer a higher carb meal 1 and a lighter carb meal immediately before training). Having a higher carb meal pre bed on rest days can also help re-fuel glycogen stores for the following training day.

    That was a pretty detailed answer and I thank you for that! One final thing to ask, lets say I know I am having a fullbody session because it had to be crammed in a fullbody day because of schedule, do I carb load 1 or 2 days prior to it, or the same day? Hunger is no issue nor any of the other signs you mentioned, I am talking about pure session performance in this case.

    Be lean enough and in a place that it’s a few days and let the body rest a little movement wise and then keep going . They aren’t about timing around sessions you need to perform well in ( that also has nothing to do with bodybuilding )

    I didn’t really understand what you are trying to say. Atm I am around 10-12% max body fat with visible veins everywhere and would need the performance benefit along with their positive hormonal effects keeping TDEE higher.

    February 26, 2026 at 9:25 pm in reply to: T4 and HGH

    This was my bloodwork on 4iu for 5 months straight. Ft3 is high, wont adding more T4 cause T3 to go above range causing hyperthyroidism?

    February 1, 2026 at 12:05 am in reply to: Anadrol daily vs Pre Workout

    I’ve used it pre workout on training days ONLY and its worked wonders for strength and performance. The reason why I didn’t run it all the time is because it can drive my blood pressure a little high so just utilising it on days I trained helped to control that 🙂

    I am preparing for a powerlifting meet right on the 22nd of February and I would love every inch of advantage I could get. As for blood pressure, whether I am on 150mg test or 1500 mg of total gear, it remains at 110/60

    I prefer daily (training days only) pre workout, I see better fulness and strength gains compared missing days : )

    I don’t think I undertand, what you are saying contradicts each other unless you train 7/7?

    January 28, 2026 at 11:54 pm in reply to: HGH immense numbness ruining sleep.

    Maybe just a diff brand as well. Sometimes just switching that can help. You’ll know right away if it’s the brand or just GH in general if you switch.

    Thing is my previous brand didn’t do the numbness, did get the edema though. Why is that? If we compare them being legit or not, the second one is a much more reputable brand.
