So for a good weeks I’ve had a great run on chest training. Strength / pump / connection / fulness etc all been great.
Last arm day during close grip smith press for triceps I pulled my left pec tendon that attaches to the shoulder. So having to train light / easy today for chest training

Annoyingly happens quite often when things seem to be going too well right? Lol

Anyway decent session in the end, went for pump / volume

Calves- standing raises 8 x 8-20
Flat bench 6 x 8-12
Incline hammer 4 x 8-12
Decline machine 3 x 10-15
Pec dec 4 x 12-15
Cable fly 4 x 8-12

You’ll get many different takes on this. But in my opinion a deload is first and foremost to make sure your recovery catches up / CNS gets a rest etc.
So I would lower volume, intensity AND load AND I wouldn’t go to failure.
So basically less sets, no intensity techniques (rest pauses etc) and just get a nice pump, keep blood flowing to promote recovery.

Hi bud looks like you’ve found the kind of training that you enjoy as well as seeing results from.

You say you don’t progress on some lifts. If the goal is to continue growing and this is a progressive overload method you’re using, I’d suggest you adjust volume / food surplus to allow progress across the board

But ultimately if you’re happy then no need to change anything till you stop seeing progress or get bored

How come you want to know buddy ?

I’ve never focused on ester weight.

Not sure why you would

Hi Sas, only because I wanted to run testosterone at 3 mg’s per kg 🙂

Just being a nerd really, I even sent it to Janoshik for testing…

Ah ok bud. That makes sense 🙂 smart getting it tested too

“Winter bulk” going pretty well.

I’m waking up 265 right now. Not been this heavy since 2018, and I wasn’t this comfortable with it back then.

Food is quite high but not being forced much. And I feel relatively healthy.

Not lean by any means, but as I’ve said before this is where I grow best.

Hoping to see 270 by Xmas then I’ll try and hold / acclimatise there till I decide to diet.

Update diet below

Hope everyone is good!

[Sasan Heirati]

Glad to have you back updating, Sas! Are you planning on doing any more training/nutrition videos with the new ‘winter bulk’ phase?

Hey Stephen thanks bud!
I might do one towards the back end of December / January yes.
Would you like to see an update ?

[Sasan Heirati]

1-2iu before bed every day is plenty for recovery for your size and most injuries.

But gh alone won’t just heal the injury, it will help, you need to cover diet / sleep / rehab work etc etc

Thank you sasan . Yes i understand it . İ do every thing possible from diet rehab sleep aspect to recover as soon as possible . My back is good for almost 2-3 month but this thursday when i do hack after rep 5 i heard a sound from my back and that day i couldn’t even stand up straight but thanks god after a few day my back got better but still working on bending and doing other stuff.

Hi bud have you had your back aligned? With a Chiropractor I mean… it could be something nerve related and maybe just need to be twisted / cracked back into the right place. Hacks (with back support) shouldn’t really effect back unless an injury hasn’t healed or a nerve keeps getting pressed on

Cycle looks good to me.
100mg clomid seems a little high for 30 days straight so just monitor how you feel (moods / emotions etc )
Enanthate is great, the only one I use Regardless of injection frequency.
Start pct 1-2 weeks after your last injection

[Sasan Heirati]

If you’re super dry and ready, a nice hit if sodium / sugar / some fats within in an hour before stage should help in more cases but it depends on a lot of factors including how lean you are and how you’ve done peak week

[Sasan Heirati]

So yesterday (Monday) was back and abs training, and today was chest and calves. Sessions written below

Both have gone really well. If you’ve followed me for a while you’ll know I like fast paced sessions usually. Good amount of volume, minimal rest times etc

But for this “winter bulk” phase, if I feel strong and joints feel good on that given day, I’m allowing myself to slow down, lower reps (on compounds), increase rest time and try lift some heavier poundages. Yes for growth but also just because it’s Fun.

I’ll start my sessions with a big lift like flat bench / smith press for chest, some kind of bent over row for back, 6+ sets building up the weight to as heavy as I can go for 5 reps or more

Then I’ll speed things up as the session goes on and end on more pump work

With the high amount of food I’m eating and current dosages I’ll expect to see a decent amount of muscle gained by January

Back, abs
Rope crunches 4 x 15-30
Pull overs 4 x 15-20 reps
Chest support t bar 6 x 6-8 reps
Seated chest support row 4 x 8-12
Wide grip pull downs 4 x 8-12
Seated cable row 4 x 10-12
Rev Pec Dec 3 x 15-20

Chest, calves
Toe press 6 x 12-20
Flat smith press 6 x 6-8
Incline panatta 5 x 8-12
Cable flye 4 x 10-15
Machine dips 4 x 15-25

[Sasan Heirati]

I usually stay on 6-8 weeks bud, so I’ll run it till the end of November then stop

Thanks for the reply!

Sounds good! Are you staying on 50mg/day or do you raise the dosage ?

[/quote]
I’ll taper up to 100mg. I usually feel fine on 150mg too (digestion / appetite wise) but I won’t need it that high this run.

Welcome bud! Anytime anything just ask

[Sasan Heirati]

As mentioned it could be mind muscle connection issue, try slowing reps right down and really focusing on the muscle through the entire range of motion.
Maybe move them earlier in the workout ?

But like Clare said we’d need more info
