    So still holding 246-248 lbs at the moment

    Haven’t trained last couple days due to having family stay with us, planned outings etc etc

    Downtime December (as I like to call it) is in full flow 🙂 i have zero urge to train (yep I’m crazy, but it helps my joints / cns a lot)

    Food has been loosely followed, but still quite clean really, especially for me, protein and fats are kept strict, carbs are up and down. Usually down. I actually feel leaner so I must be under eating, but when I do keep protein and fats high during these times, I maintain size really well. So not worried

    I think from next week I’ll start getting training and PED’s going back up slowly, take Xmas days off, then hit it pretty hard over the New Years days and onwards

    Hope you guys are all well!!

    thank you for your response, I’m going to try a new approach to workout intensity, calories and dosage by being more progressive on all of these things.

    Awesome keep us posted 🙂

    I know it’s hard, but this is our own choice, the one we made when we decided to take steroids, it’s temporary buddy trust me!! You’ll be back for firing on all fun cylinders in no time after you conceive

    Hcg and hmd can help but that totally depends on what your body might need given what your sperm analysis comes out as

    Best thing for you to do before the sperm test is to come off everything and see where your body is at before deciding. I’m sure we will help moving forward from there

    But as always others will chime in here that maybe know better then me 🙂

    Hi bud. I think you’re going about this very wrong. I was in the same boat in 2019 but I seems our professional
    Advice from an actual doctor.
    Firstly.. You’re on test and mast… why? That’s shutting down your LH and FSH… telling your body it’s got enough test so it becomes flatlined fertility wise.. regardless of how much hcg and hmg you take… that’s you giving your body 2 totally opposite directions so your body has no idea what to do with this information…
    To get your testes producing sperm your body needs to start producing it’s one hormones naturally, or with the right medication of course.
    Some guys get lucky, but the rest of us need to COME OFF anabolics.
    I tried for over 6 months being totally off and it worked, it was slow but your body will do what it needs if you let it.
    Come off.
    Be patient.
    Get the sperm test and see what the professionals tell you….
    The doctors are here to help us regardless of what most in the industry think

    Hope this helps buddy, keep us posted

    Hi. Progressing doesn’t rely on just the drugs. Progressing depends on how you perform and progress during your training sessions, your food intake, rest and recovery, mindset, health, list can go on. THEN, Performance enhancement wise maybe start with lower dosages, and taper a very small amount every 2-3 weeks….

    December 16, 2021 at 6:03 pm in reply to: Should I add Tren?

    Kuba is right, no one NEEDS any PED’s to obtain a good physique. BUT, if you’re always using, then unless competing at a very very very high level I don’t think anyone “needs” tren. But as always it’s a personal choice so if you give context as to where you’re at in your bodybuilding career then maybe we can help.

    Wassup guys 🙂

    So last couple days I’ve had Leanne’s (my better half’s) parents staying with us, and with it being December I’ve decided to just take clear of the gym

    I know I’m repeating myself but this is what I like to do during December, just take extra time off to let myself totally reset before the next phase

    I know a lot of you might think this sounds silly, we all love training, we all love being on a set routine…. But after 23 years of training, I’ve come to learn some forced time off, has extremely good benefits long term. Not just physically but mentally to allow me to keep training hard with the motivation I need to continue progressing

    I’m holding 246-248 lbs very well, diet is so so, not much junk, and low calories I’d say compared to to what I’m used to

    I have had a lot of steak, eggs, salads, then a free meal at night (pizza / Persian / burgers etc)

    Tomorrow I’m hoping to get back in the gym so I’ll keep you posted

    December 15, 2021 at 6:00 pm in reply to: Split critique

    Hi buddy, I think your split looks like it could work if you’re very precise with how you direct your mind muscle connection (isolate the targeted muscle groups properly and not overlap too much)

    BUUUUT…. how is this split feeling / progressing your goals? If you’re improving, recovering well, and having great workouts then that’s the only feedback you need. So let us know

    Hi bud, what was wrong with push pull off legs off split? If you’re training to full intensity / failure, then this split, in my opinion, is more then enough to keep progressing and growing.

    I also think have pull and legs days next to eachother, like your new split suggests sometimes, is a bad idea recovery wise and also lower back health wise if you’re doing considerable volume

    Hi Gary congrats bud , same happened to me in 2019 so I know how demanding a new born period can be… enjoy everything moment!!

    Like Phoebe asked, Training wise , do you have 3 consecutive rest days due to a busy busy schedule? If that’s the case then it can definitely still work, a consistent calorie deficit will still get you lean with 3 training days, IF you can throw in some activity on those days even just a risk walk.

    But I also do agree with both Phoebe and Clare on the sort they’ve suggested

    PED wise Ive added 100mg primo to the already 300mg test I’ve been on

    So august September October i was on 200mg test, stepped up to 300 in November and now adding in the primo 100mg

    January I’ll be pushing primo up nice and high, never done this before as I’ve always preferred having test high (500-700mg) and all other compounds much lower so I’ll see how I feel with it

    That’ll be me pushing up a little whilst staying lean. Then diet down to a very lean guest posing condition for summer time… I don’t want to just heavy. Feeling good is goal as well as getting PRO ready 😉

    Another couple days again without training… this will be a trend through December as I do tend to try and relax / rest much as possible. Something I’ve done since I was in my early 20’s (36 right now), to break up the year and let my mind & body fully reset , recharge and get motivated for the next 10-11 months… suits me well as I’m hoping to really step things up come January

    Woke up 2 days ago with a totally seized neck, on one side could turn it, I’m sure many of you can relate, it was hurting a little through the week and I must have tipped it over the edge sleeping funny. So training would have been terrible anyway

    Had some lovely Persian food at my mums today, a usual Sunday tradition, and I’m quite ready to hit a solid few days of training and food from tomorrow

    Cable isolation work for sure as said above, also I think weighting lunges if controlled correctly is great for adductors and other supporting / stabilising muscles

    December 11, 2021 at 7:04 am in reply to: Fatty Liver at 22

    The liver is extremely good at healing itself if it’s given the right environment. So like above, losing some weight / body may help… also just giving your liver the best chance at detoxing, peridots of low food intake, even 12-16 hour fasting windows 1-2 times times weekly, low toxins, just not giving your liver any extra stress that may come from stuff like processed foods, high sugar foods, high day foods, sugary / alcoholic drinks, cigarettes, some medication/ drugs etc etc anything that’s generally deemed “unhealthy” will be stressing your liver. So just be super wise about what you choose to eat / drink, get leaner and fitter, liver will heal in time
