I’m probably the only person on here that will say I always feel and grow better on mast : ) just my opinion.

[Sasan Heirati]

So yesterday my back felt a touch better, I decided to go and train arms, lower volume then usual to see how it goes and today my back seems ok.

Rest day today, back day tomorrow so that’ll be the bigger test. Hopefully today rest and a cheat meal will help

Bodyweight is still holding steady around 262 and I’m happy with that. If I push up harder it’ll only be worse for my back

Yesterdays arms

Tricep tri set… rope push downs x 15, over head rope extensions x 15, hands together rope push downs 15 reps x 4 sets
Panatta dips close grip 4 x 12-20
Ez bar cable extensions 4 x 8-12
Db bicep curls 4 x 8-12
Rope hammer curls 4 x 6-12
Preacher curls 4 x 8-12

As mentioned above it depends on how you feel / look / how your responding to food and training. If you’re still growing, food is digesting well, food amount is manageable, then continue growing. Body fat level “limit” is based on yourself, wether you still grow when fatter or if you need to be leaner to grow well. Again, comes down to rate of progress

You can cut straight away but do it slowly and don’t crash diet.

Remember this though, fat takes weeks / months to take off, quality muscle takes years to put on

Impromptu rest day today. Lower back is more sore then usual and doesn’t seem to be going away. And it’s whey frustrating when trying to train hard

So I think over the next week I’ll try take a few extra rest days to see if I can help it recover faster

Other then that, felt considerably fuller today, drug’s definitely kicking in nicely already, extra calories helping along too.

Did have an off plan meal with my mrs and son, took them to Nando’s. Fairly clean I had a whole chicken, 5 chicken wings and a garlic bread. More like a snack meal haha

Anyway not much else to report, I’ll check back in tomorrow and see if I feel good enough to hit the gym

Same weight today. Leg day started off slow, one of those days where warms ups just felt heavy. But as I got deeper into my leg press sets things felt much better

I’ve upped volume today on my main lift: so today for example on leg press I picked a rep range, started light and kept within that range for as many sets as I felt / could. Today was 7 sets 8- 12 reps. Load wise for example first set was 200kg for 12, set 7 was 560kg for 8

I’ll replicate this volume now for one main compound for all workout days just to bring in some more volume and load since anabolics are creeping in

Legs

Laying ham curls 4 x 8-10
Leg press 7 x 8-12
Standing leg curl 3 x 6-8
Leg extensions 4 x 12-20
Adductors 3 x 12-15
Abductors 3 x 12-15

Personally I think if the LVH is enough to warrant bp meds and beta blockers then I really wouldn’t want to risk the stress of a contest prep. Doesn’t mean you have to stop bodybuilding buddy. Always a way. But a prep is another level

[Sasan Heirati]

Couple lbs gain today to 262. Feeling fuller for sure too.

Rest day today same menu. So keep calories the same even though not training. I feel I’ll benefit from this recovery wise this time

Libido and that “feel good” feelings have definitely picked up today so rest doing its thing.

I’ll expect ti feel fuller rounder and tighter over the next 7-10 days

All in all very happy.

Leg day tomorrow.

[Sasan Heirati]

cracking leg session, volume crept back up again as i feel alright. i dont feel gd, but i never do once im over 275 , i always feel slightly tired, but it is what it is .

278 this morn, could feel e2 up a little, immediately feel happy in my joints, and that jumps my strength straight away, before even androgens doing their thing, thats why im running 1:1 test primo

leg press x 7

pendulum x 10

leg ext x 8 x 7 x 9

lying ham x 8 x 8 x 8

adductor x 8

single leg hyper x 8

lying leg raise x 14 , x 6-2

donkey calf raise x 11 x 6

bicep curl x 7 x 6 x 6

20 bike

im very excited for androgens to kick back in and drive strength through the roof, but equally dreading 295 .

we are looking at new units this week, 10,000 sq ft public gym is on the cards 🙂

Lovely 😀

Tanned is usually better under the photo shoot lights. If you can get some instant / competition tan like protan or jan tana, or liquid Sunrays and apply the day before. Then spend all weekend washing it off like Michaela said that’ll work fine

[Sasan Heirati]

I would add in vitamin d supplement and omegas too. 150mg test should be plenty test wise unless estrogen / progesterone etc are out of whack. If you’re nutrient intake, sleep, fluid intake etc are all covered well then best thing to do is get bloods done and see what’s what. Otherwise we are all just guessing for you

260 again today regardless of cheat meal last month. Which is good. But of an off track day today as I had to get something fixed on my car so I ended up at my friends garage for 6 hours and only managed to have 2 protein shakes and 2 protein cookies. 2 regular rice and beef meals too. So underfed for sure

Training was decent though. I switch my usual training around to do chest instead of back as I woke up with a bad / locked up lower back. Happens every now and then, I take ibuprofen and let it ease off for 2 days then it’s usually fine

Tomorrow I’ll see how back is and decide on training

Incline hammer 5 x 6-8
Decline Atlantis 4 x 8-12

[Sasan Heirati]

Holding weight nicely now at 260

Rest day today and upping calorie a little via one cheat meal. Not having a full high food day because I feel quite full (muscle wise) so don’t see the need.

As of tomorrow I’ll push food up a little more. Aim is 265-270 depending on how much fat and water I add. So I’ll post my updated diet once I decide how much to add

Day of relaxing, visiting my parents and family time today. Dominos for cheat meal tonight : D hope everyone has had a great weekend
