50mcg is quite a lot. 25mcg normally keeps you around normal levels. Which is really helpful when you’ve been in a deficit for a while and things slow down. 50mcg is normally a dose used if desperate at the end of prep if you’re behind a little. I’d drop to 25mcg, push carbs for a few days and then drop cals again, but keep to 25mcg. Should stop you flattening out as easy.

How does your diet look for you to think you’re not insulin sensitive bud? Post it up when you get time 🙂

You’ve probably flattened out more so that lost that much muscle. I’d do a few high carb days. You should fill out, put a few lbs back ok feel a lot better. Try to use one weight loss tool at a time.

What do you mean by a lean bulk? It’s a weird term. Some mean it as being in a surplus by eating clean foods. Some mean increasing weight and staying lean, which isn’t really possible for very long if you want to keep growing.
Either way, there’s quite a few videos where Jordan explains how to push up, and when to tidy up. -
Geek yogurt and sugar free jelly isn’t very calorie dense. If you’re looking at ways of adding food to push calories I’d be looking more at nut butters and easy digesting carbs like cereals and bagels. Adding oils to meals helps too. Low calorie snacks in off season will just fill you up and make it harder to fit your meals in.

Try to do the opposite of tricks people use when pushing cals. Instead of using calorie dense meals, go for nutrient dense meals. A couple bagels with jam goes down a treat, but convert that into the same grams of carbs from rice and you’ve got a hell of a lot of food! Normally the more bland the food, the more of it you can eat.

Pull cals into a deficit, shed some fat to a point you think you could happily push cals again for around 10-12 weeks and not expect to be a blob, then repeat 🙂

I’d say no need for cardio yet. Use it as a tool when you need it. What cals are you on now? Does that hold your weight or increase it? This normally gives you a good idea what amount of cals will put you in a deficit.
-
Ye, if things aren’t moving off, you need to drop more. And constantly assess. If anything stalls, look to drop again or increase cardio/NEAT.
I’d also add after the diet look to push food up as high as you can leaving you with more to take out on the next diet.
-
Ye I was gunna say how long have you been on the diet? Could you post a typical day of food so we can see if anything looks off?
-
You can probably answer that question yourself mate. Have you put on a tonne of weight quickly? It’s certainly a good way to increase cals easier with it having 9 cals per gram. Especially if you’re struggling to get food in.

That leg press routine sounds brutal. I’m giving that a try even though I’ll probably throw up.
I commented on your NY pro post you put on insta but I have to say on here too, what an unbelievable routine and physique mate. I’ve been into bodybuilding for 15 years and that still managed to blow me away. Remember thinking that at the time too. That rear double is up there with the best in the world. I really liked the front double, where you squeeze the abs at the end of it too. Can’t wait to see you on stage again bud.

Lol George. Loving the title of their thread.

Have you had to add some new injection sites with the added oil volume? Sounds like a pain in the ass….and delts……and bi’s…..and tris etc.
Managed to find someone to look at the injury? Fingers crossed you’re being a wimp and it heals quickly bud ????
-
Great to hear you’re a much leaner 275. Very exciting.
Would you say the strength increase and aggression from the tren is the main culprit for picking up injuries?
