254 today same weight
Rest day. Chris has added 20 minutes cardio for tomorrow and treadmill. I’ll either walk the dog again or do it on the treadmill so I can do some work
Nothing exciting today. Editing my full day in the life video for my YouTube channel. Got a couple new coaching plans to write. And a Q & A on my Instagram. Then some family if I can.
Andrew won the Arnold. Rightfully so I believe but Nick looked crazy good. Hadi brought it for the finals too

If you’re not due a trt / off cycle phase and are ok to continue the diet on cycle, then you don’t need to change anything at this point. Nothing wrong with the cycle. Focus on getting lean and monitor how you look and feel.
Once body fat is low, If you wanted to achieve a harder , drier look then that’s when you might adjust the cycle

254 today . Up 2 lbs after the 800g carb day yesterday l. HIGH day meal plan below for reference
Didn’t “feel” the extra weight / carbs till I started training . Felt so good in the gym. Skin looked thinner , more vascularity, full, pumped and big
The eq at 600 and test at 1200 still at 6 weeks out is definitely helping stay / look bigger and rounder: making big difference this prep
Shoulder pain didn’t interfere too much today so I enjoy the session
Chris hasn’t replied yet today. So no changes as far as I know yet
Was arm day. Short rest periods, super set biceps straight into triceps. Definitely my fav type of arm day
High day menu
1 – 4 whole eggs, 250g oats, 125g honey, 14iu insulin
Train- 50g carb TBJP performance fuel
2- 80g whey iso , 200g oats, 75g honey
3- 225g chicken, 475g rice, 14iu insulin
4- 225g chicken, 425g rice
5- 80g whey is , 80g oats

What’s your goal buddy ? Are you on cycle make gains ? First cycle ? Etc …
A good place to start when introducing eq would 1/2 of where your test is dosed. So 120mg eq. And see how you feel / run some bloods to see the numbers etc
LH and FSH will generally stay suppressed with you’re on test / cycle

252.2 today. Another drop. Falling off fast right now.
High day today – 800g carbs And can tell my body does need a bump
Shoulder day went ok. Hate To sound like a broken record but shoulders are painful.
Not sure what exactly it is causes the current aches and pains, but if I had to guess I’d say a combination of being in prep – lower fats / calories , winny added in, proviron, getting leaner, alongside 27 years weight lifting , 15 of those years at quite an extreme level.
I’m gonna get a deep tissue massage booked soon see if it helps
I’ll keep the volume lower for now
No check in with Chris today. He’s got a lot of on the Arnold Classic Ohio . But I’m checking in tomorrow
Hope everyone has a had good week so far!

If you have a refeed / carb load , specifically for a season, it’s better to take the carbs in the day before at least to let the carbs take effect: depending on how depleted you are, you could need 2 days

Rest day today. Chris also put in 40 mins cardio. Easy walk outside or treadmill.
Went for a walk with our dog, sun is shining , podcast on , quite relaxing lol
Not much else to report
Leg day tomorrow
I’ve also decided to not take any of the metabolism boosting peptides on rest days. Just feel like I stay more sensitive to them if I take a couple days off then per week. So mot c , 5 amino, ss31, methylene blue all taken just on training days from now

Sas so
You still take all your anabolic shots in one day?
Yes [/quote]
Sorry have I got this completely wrong but you take every anabolic in your cycle in one day.
Eg 1000mg of test E
900mg of primo
[/quote]
Correct -
255 today down another lb. Feeling leaner.
First time today in the gym that I’ve felt a loss of performance.
food and anabolics are at a good high level where I shouldn’t lose performance.
And I also had a lot of pain in my shoulders today , front delt area. And it was chest day so it didn’t feel nice.
This leads me to think the issue is (as well as me being old of course haha) is I’ve been running mu volume too high
5+ years ago this type of volume was east. Clearly not any more.
So will lower volume a bit for a while till things start feeling better again
I am holding fulness really well. So I don mind posting some performance as long as it doesn’t hurt the look
Other than that no updates.
Rest day tomorrow

Hi Sas hope you’re well
What are the main benefits you see from high days in prep? For both yourself and from what I’ve seen you like to implement them with your clients too. Thank you sir! [/quote]
Hey buddy , hope you’re well tooHigh days were quite a few purposes. Physiologically they kind of “wake up” the process of burning fuel / food / body fat so give things a boost.
They fill up glycogen stores , fluid stores etc so this helps maintain a high level of performance in the gym (which is key to getting in shape and staying big)
It’s never good to just stay in a calories deficit every for week and week. That’s what bikini girls do : D
So these high days help off set the aggressive deficit , giving up fuel both physically and mentally to continue progressing
