    I would add extra 200g carbs Mon and tues, drop to 100g weds, no carbs Thursday to drop some water. Increase water from Monday and add 1000mg vit c 3 x per day, Thursday half water intake and you should be a little dryer and fuller for Friday.

    I like to work up band strengths focusing on mobility of the ankle by attaching the band to the foot and doing flexion and extensions.

    Current weight at 122kg so down a few kg since I started tidying up. Current makros below and steps around 8k. Midsection has Tightened up a fair bit. Will put some gh in now as I find I’m alot fuller on gh. Cycle is Currently 500mg pharma sust and 300mg EQ for the last 2 weeks. Will continue Tighting up as a prep to see what I look like at the end. I’m not sure if my body has what it takes to improve on the last time round but there’s only one way to find out.

    Has your wrist healed okay? Being in a deficit after surgery is not ideal for recovery.

    Eat lots of food, train like a maniac week after week pushing yourself to places that scare you and you will build muscle. The biggest issue I see today is no one taking their training where it needs to go for progress. Everything else is spot on, I have people timing rest periods, writing in diaries, eating perfectly, supplements perfect, sleep tracked with watches, BG monitored. BUT none of this matters of you can’t take your body to its absolute limit, no amount of data can help with this. You either have this inside of you or you don’t. I’d say 5% of people have this ability.

    I utilise shakes in the offseason when appetite is lower. On preps I would rather eat food so would use chicken, turkey or fish.

    People hold fat in different places. Water retention or bloating can come from kidney issues. If it’s fat then once you get lean enough you will see a jawline. Or just grow a big beard.

    Nothing changes unless you feel you need to pull back depending on your body composition. I find alot of people come off and stop eating and Training hard but when off diet should be just as meticulous and Training as intense as you can handle recovery wise

    Definitely get bloods 1st as it’s not something I would just start, although it can help training if your naturally low its best to know your low before considering life long hormone replacement.

    June 12, 2025 at 10:44 pm in reply to: How to know when to end a gaining phase

    I will monitor bloods, BP and bfat as main factors of what adjustments i make, if your in good condition and gaining but bloods are off you will need to pull back on anabolics and possibly food if blood pressure is also high. If your bloods are good but your gaining too much bfat you will need to lower food or increase movement but you wouldnt need to adjust your cycle.

    I would opt for more test then Mast or primo to avoid crashing your oestrogen. You could try 150mg test 100mg Mast or primo. Depends on how much you aromatise.

    Push up done, finished at 125kg. This week I’ve added 20mins of walking taking me to around 8k steps a day. As I increase movement and reduce food I will slowly add more anabolics. This week I’ve added 300mg Bold and switched to pharma sust at 500mg per week. I expect weight to stick a little as I drop bfat and anabolics go up. I will also be adding 2iu gh 5 days a week as of next week. Training is going well, Strength moving up and enjoying training relatively pain free.

    Utilise complex carbs and avoid too many sugars. Higher protein and fats will work well 1st thing. You can use carbs around training.

    How old are you, what are your goals training wise? I see alot of people running trt when they don’t need to. Your injecting a hormone so there will be sides and fluctuations no matter how perfect you do it. Obviously some have no choice because their natural production is non existent but many do have the chance to return their natural levels. Its not to say this is the issue with your mood as there could be other factors.
