    260 today. Up again. Feel explosively haha

    Chris is happy. He said “stick with high food, you’ll be shredded in 3 weeks if we want “

    He’s not wrong. I’m happy with the look, and the training performance , just don’t like the high food. Getting to old for it haha

    Chest day today. 150kg flat barbel bench for 6… strength flying up on that. So I’m gonna run that movement on chest days for now , if I can get a good run of flat bench pressing , increasing my strength I know my chest delts and triceps will grow for sure

    I’ll probably go back to 140kg and try get to 15 easy reps before I go back to 150

    No changes otherwise

    Tomorrow is rest day

    Chest & calves

    Donkey calf raises 6 x 8-15

    Flat bench 3 x 6-10

    Incline machine 3 x 8-12

    John, I prefer eq for off season. I didn’t want anything that heavy during the few weeks between Spain and starting the O prep. And I wanted a break off tren so it made sense to go with masteron

    And I have to say, j really liked the tighter / drier feeling / look this time yes

    But tren goes in soon. Mast might go out

    260 today. Nice jump in weight.

    Chris added 300g cooked rice and 6iu insulin to meal 3 , so that’s bumping things up a bit

    I’m 8 weeks out but feel full blown off season haha

    Leg day Wednesday was better than last week (knee wise) but still not great. I was able to do some substantial work on the leg extension. Then some very light work on a season press. That was all I could do quad wise.


    Arm day yesterday, and lats + lats both went very well. No complaints there


    I’ll post my updates diet and cycle below

    July 28, 2026 at 4:39 pm in reply to: Maintaining Cycle Gains

    The truth is somewhere in the middle. You’ll almost always lose some of the size, fullness and strength gained on cycle because you’re no longer in a supraphysiological environment, but if your TRT dose is adequate, training stays hard, nutrition is bang on and you recover well, you can retain the majority of actual muscle tissue. Most of what people lose initially is glycogen, water and the “on-cycle look.” The key is not trying to train or eat exactly as you did on 500 mg—reduce fatigue, keep progressive overload where possible, and let your health markers recover. Long-term consistency beats trying to stay permanently in blast mode.

    256.3 today so down another 2 lbs. Not too sure why, nothing has changed so so if I had to explain it I’d say it’s a combination of my body acclimating to the food, new gh level and new body weight so metabolism has caught up and is cranking higher. As well as last week being somewhat of a delayed rebound because I stayed so lean since my last show in June

    And now it’s all levelling off

    Either way I feel quite good. Not has lean as I was at 250 but a boat load fuller and rounder

    Today chest session was a lot better then yesterdays back day. Been stretching my legs / glutes / lower back a lot so the back pain goes down and it is starting to work

    Felt very good during chest training, super pumped and very strong. Did barbell flat bench instead of smith and it was fun. I I’ve missed it. Nothing crazy load wise I worked up to 130kg for 8. Might keep this in and see if I can

    Improve this number , just for fun : )

    Waiting for Chris’s reply , he’s traveling so he’ll get back to my check in later

    Happy with how I look. Determined to maintain this extra fulness for the Olympia and any other shows I jump in to

    Chest , tricep pump , calves

    Standing calf raises 6 x 10-20

    Incline machine chest press 3 x 6-10

    Flat barbell press 3 x 6-10

    Decline machine press 3 x 8-12

    Seated pec dec 3 x 8-12

    Rope extensions 5 x 10-30

    Great fat burning stimulant for sure. No harm using it. Anytime I used it in the past I saved for the death end of a hard cut when energy and focus got super low. Has more effect then

    258.5 today. 8 weeks 4 days out from the Olympia

    Up 1 lb from yesterday’s rest day. Food stayed high (train day menu)

    Being close to 10 lbs up in the space of a week definitely has its downsides I’m very tired all the time – sleepy tired – and my lower back is in pain due to everything getting tight

    260 obvs isn’t heavy heavy but it’s the speed of got here. I’m sure it wont be long better we diet back down so it’s all good

    Back day today was a hit shit. The tightness in my glutes , hams , quads and lower back was making it really painful pulling on nerve anytime I did anything that involved my lower back so it didn’t feel like a productive session.

    More stretching for me !

    Chris has kept the diet the same for tomorrow

    257.5 today so down a couple lbs. Maybe the rebound effect is slowing lol

    I definitely feel softer , lower back skin is thicker , less serial, but damn I feel sooooo full and round all the time

    The 15iu gh has seriously boosted fulness. Along with food obviously. I feel like my upper body hasn’t ever been this round / big

    I really hope I can hold this fulness as I being weight back down

    Chris added t4 today. 50mcg. Reasoning is he says it’ll help (working alongside t3) Get me leaner without sacrificing as much fulness.


    Rest day today. But training day food so same menu I’ve been on all week

    July 25, 2026 at 5:09 pm in reply to: Soft erection

    I wouldn’t assume it’s low E2. An E2 of 55 isn’t particularly low, and soft erections/fatigue are non-specific symptoms. EQ can muddy the picture, some complain of low E2 symptoms even if the reading isn’t low.. and, because of its long half-life, symptoms may persist for several weeks after stopping it.

    Erectile quality is heavily dependent on vascular function. Checking blood pressure is far more important initially than rushing for an ECG if you have no cardiac symptoms. EQ can increase haematocrit over time, which may also affect circulation

    I’d repeat bloods in 4–6 weeks (CBC, total/free T, sensitive E2, prolactin, SHBG, lipids and CMP), check blood pressure and haematocrit, and avoid chasing E2 alone until you have the full picture.

    If everything comes back normal and the symptoms persist, then I’d be looking beyond hormones—sleep, stress, recovery, psychological factors, medications, and vascular health can all contribute to erectile dysfunction.

    259 today , since Tuesday 4 days ago I am up 9 lbs.

    I feel sooo full and round. Like it’s a 2nd round of rebounding lol.

    One change we’ve made is I upped the gh to 15. Just to see if it helped the fulness and I think it definitely has , upper body is very round so Chris said just keep it at 15 if I can, because I really do need more upper body fulness and width on stage

    Today was chest and delts pump day. 2nd time I hit these 2 groups on this split , lighter loads , shorter rest periods , pump up mainly

    One thing for certain is this combination of new training split + current cycle + current diet is working really really well, Chris is super happy with how much fuller I am in my upper body which was my goal after my last show

    Happy coach. Happy sas

    Tomorrow is rest and Chris wasn’t me to still eat training day foods

    So calories are staying up

    July 24, 2026 at 6:28 am in reply to: higher fat in off season

    There’s many ways to diet / grow mate. Getting softer / holding water isn’t always a bad thing especially if you’re growing , progressing in the gym

    and you’re hungry. Some just hold more fat when they grow. As long as it’s not excessive


    But if you’re unhappy , just try a lower carb , higher fat approach and see you look and feel. Both in and out of the gym.
