Don’t fuck about trying to take controlled drugs on international flights (or domestic for that matter). If you need gear for your stay then buy it out there.

My Mrs is gona be working in Chester for a while, can anyone recommend any well equipped gyms nearby?

Test U may work a touch better but may not.

sust was invented for less frequent dosing exactly like every 14 days n works quite well imo.

I’m not a fan of test U at all tbh[/quote]

Would depend on how test U is used, it’s very slow to kick in obviously so it’s shit to transition to if you don’t give it a long ramp up time before dropping…

This is unrelated to your original question about GH, but I’d suggest cruising with a longer ester like test U if you want to only inject every 14 days. If you’re taking 250mg of sust every 14 days, you’ll experience very large peaks and troughs in the rate test is released into your system.

I go about 2 inches above my nipple, that rough area mate, basically where the most meat is (for me at least)

All I ever use is 29/30G ½”, if you’re not fat it’s fine. Rotate delts, chest, tris, lats, quads and calfs, should be plenty.

As the guy above says, low dead space syringes are great, if you’re ever in a pinch and you want to not waste any gear, pull maybe 0.5cc of extra air into the syringe and inject with the syringe vertical so that the air pocket pushes the last of the oil out.

People worry about venous air embolism, but it isn’t an issue for two reasons:

1) we…

Zojirushi is hands down the best brand for rice cookers. They’re expensive but if you eat a lot of rice like bodybuilders tend to do then they pay for themselves pretty quickly.

Can you predict when you will be able to visit each gym or can it change day to day?

I have 2 gyms thats I have to use because of my work shift pattern, so I am currently training full body every other day and have 3 different exercise rotations; 2 of them at gym A and 1 at gym B.

EQ is a very long ester form of boldenone, by the 12 week mark EQ will barely have even kicked in yet.

For a short 12 week cycle boldenone cypionate would be preferable, but then you’d have to deal with the legendary bold cyp post-injection pain.

Thanks a lot for the rundown Hilly, those doritos in the two rest day meals are actually a typo, I must have copy/pasted them in by accident… the only crisps on that day are the 35g crisp snack. I only really put them in because they fit the macros that I was aiming for and I find a little treat helps me adhere to the meal plan for longer…

Cheers Clare. Would cream of rice and some white fish be suitable instead of whey? Training days are already at something like 160g of whey, which I don’t want to rely on too heavily over whole foods.

Hi guys, just set up a diet plan and would appreciate your input on any improvements I could make. I currently weigh 108kg and train full body every other day, I’m currently bulking.

Training days: 349/589/114 (P/C/F) 4778kcals

Meal 1 (8am):

40g whey, 100g oats, 100g greek yoghurt, 30g almond butter, 400ml rice milk (blended into shake)

When I input my bodyweight (108kg), height (190cm) and the goal of gaining weight, the diet planner section of this site spits out the following macros for training days (see attachment).

Is it just me or does the intra-workout shake seem excessive? What would I even put in a shake like that? 4 scoops of cyclic dextrin and 3 scoops of whey?

Watch JP’s video on setting up a full body split in the education section, he goes through the layout in detail.

Do they have a pair of these at plat?

Cheers fellas, both good points there. Will just keep the ego in check and let the rep ranges creep up instead of piling more plates on too quick!

I often see the idea that lifters taking gear are more prone to injuries because their muscles can progress in strength that much faster than their tendons/ligaments repeated in various online communities.

To me this makes sense, so having said that what can we do to help avoid this risk? Right now I’m experiencing huge strength gains week to…

I posted a similar topic in the supplement forum when asking about the effectiveness of joint supps but I’m going to ask about my injury here again specifically just for more visibility…

Years ago I started noticing a sharp pain just under the patella of both knees during any quad focused movement. This has slowly gotten worse over time to…

Well I hope you get commission mate, cos I’m gona give it a punt!

Cheers Jessy.

Yeah I agree, I need a rehab plan but I need to find a decent physio who can guide me in the right direction first.

Otherwise my diet/recovery/sleep are all very good.

I’ve had pain in at the very front of my knees for years that stops me training legs how I would like. Sometimes I’m lucky and can have a totally pain free leg session, sometimes it feels like my knees are full of broken glass.

I’ve had MRI scans done which showed no obvious degeneration, I’ve been to a physiotherapist who suspects I may…

Just finished a trial session there and it’s pretty much as you said; the mechanical linkage in all the presses are wobbly and cheap feeling in the 4-5 plate range. A lot of the back stuff felt really good, though.

All in all I don’t think it’s worth moving for.

Cheers kuba, not buying any equipment myself was just gona check out a gym near my house that nearly exclusively uses panatta and see if it’s worth a membership swap. Will probably have a look anyway and see how it feels.

I just wish there was a gym in my area with prime stuff

What are you guys thoughts on panatta machines? A gym nearby has a lot of their gear, was thinking I’d go over there on a day pass unless the general consensus is that it’s all shit!

Cheers guys, I’ll go with the close grip I reckon 👍

My full body days are laid out as suggested by JP with a tricep compound movement after my chest and shoulder exercises.

What are your favourites? I have a plate loaded dip machine and weighted dips programmed but need a third. Would a 2-board bench press or reverse grip smith close grip bench (think Dante Trudel style) be better?

Cheers JP!

I’ve just joined a well equipped bodybuilding gym and am doing a full body split every other day as laid out in the education section.

I’ve already maxed out the adductor machine they have, being able to do 20+ reps on the full stack with very slow controlled negatives, problem is though that the owner won’t allow weight to be added to the…

Thanks Jessy

For the next 6 months I’ll be working a 14 day on / 7 day off shift pattern of 12 hour days starting at 0630am. Some days I may get off early by half hour, some maybe a half hour later. It’s a pretty fluid working environment as I work offshore so my work day is dictated by when I get back onshore each day which I don’t get a say in.

Ideally…
