I am lucky to be both Jordan so thats now the goal then, is it worth getting a year or so under my belt before finding a coach?[/quote]Similar situation here as well my
man. Got back into it when covid hit and was fortunate enough to build a gym in my basement. I recommend picking up a copy of JP’s Training Principles ebook
and hammer it.… Read more

I think it looks good. Very similar to how its laid out in his Training Principles ebook. I’ve been running the book version since January with very good results. Recovery was good so I started like yours 3x week and bumped it to every other day. So far so good.

Awesome thanks bud!

Hey Folks- question on phase 2 of the Training Principles Ebook. Pull 1 has tricep rope pushdowns listed. Is this tricep focused pushdowns or the lat pull-over rope movement? Wasn’t sure if its meant to have triceps hit two days back to back like that. Also, on push 2, what is a ‘narrow press up’? Says to add weight if possible. Thanks!

Looks pretty good bud. JP’s training principles book covers U/L splits as well as how to progress into the next phase of P/P/L types of setup.

Interested to hear from others on his topic. I am currently on test cyp every 4 days, thinking about switching to micro-dosing daily with insulin syringes IM shallow.

Sub’d. I love the idea of pausing the lifts in the stretch position. I’ve done that before with RDL’s and you get smoked pretty quick holding it mid-shinish for a sec. Gonna start incorporating that myself. How are your total cals looking on TD and NTD? Great physique man!

Hello Folks! A little about myself and why I wanted to start this journal. I just turned 42 last month and had been a member of this site previously last year. I have been ‘frequenting’ the gym for 10+ years, but never really logged anything nor took eating & recovery serious. Dabbled with cycles of test thinking that’s all I had to do in order…
