On my first cycle, I was on steroids for 6 months.

I was being advised by different coaches so the dosage varied, and I think I made too many mistakes — it was my first cycle after all.

The doses varied between 200–300 mg of testosterone enanthate per week and 200 mg of masteron during the bulk.

During cutting, 200 mg of testosterone… Read more

When transitioning from a Wellness Natty to Peds, is it a good idea to use only Oxa in the off-season, in blocks of 6-8 weeks on and 6-8 weeks off? And at what dosage?

Done

Back pose — I’m planning to compete in August here in my country, Mexico. Any suggestions?
I’ll be bulking for the rest of May.
June, July, and August will be my cutting phase.

250mg Masteron
250mg Enanthate
Per week

Weight: 80kg
Height: 170cm

I’d appreciate any tips on posing or advice for my first prep. Thank you

I am going to do my first cycle at 200 mg test for 10 weeks. My question is if I can really exploit this dose or should I add some other compound? My goal is to start competing in my city (S.L.P, Mexico). Any advice?

What is your personal opinion on this cycles of dianabol only?

I currently consume l citrulline, arginine hcl, creatine, beta alanine (I know this doesn’t have much to do with the pump, but I’m talking in general about my entire pre-workout combo). What other supplement could I add?

I’ve recently progressed my leg lifts too much by getting into seated machine adduction and leg analytics before compound movement (Romanian deadlift/hack squat)

Currently my split is: push, pull, off, legs, off with two rotations.

My question is how to keep progressing? since I am getting stronger in all my lifts, and the first exercises start…

In your opinion/experience, Is a good option to order the excercises in the legs session with all isolation work befote the compund?, some like (in a quad focus session):

3. Lying leg Curl – 2 sets
4. Leg Extension – 2 sets

It is worth to have a 2 different training splits and repeat? Something Like:

Week 1 – Upper, lower, rest, upper, lower, rest, rest

Week 2 – Push A, Pull A, , Legs A, rest, Push B, Pull B, Legs B

Then Repeat

This for clients that love “variety” in programs. Or its better to explain them that only 1 split and keep it more simple maybe works better?

Thanks for all your answers🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Current split
Push A
Pull A Deadlift/Deadstop
Off
Legs A
Off
Push B
Pull B Deadlift/Deadstop
Off
Legs B RDL
Off

I’ve been deadlifting every 5 days but as I increase the load I start to get a little overloaded by the second session. Should I do better every 10 days? Would this make it less efficient by not giving it frequency? Should… Read more

Thanks Clare. I appreciate it

🙏🏻🙏🏻 Thanks Jordan

I would like to know your experience if you have done a flexible diet and if it is a style that you recommend if my goal is hypertrophy.

The second question is if it is convenient to have 2-3 diet rotations in a week hitting the same macros.

Cool

Thanks mate

It is good to program with RIR or RPE for novice clients who are not familiar with intense/to-failure workouts?

How can I determine my daily sodium intake?
Is it good to use salt during training?

Most of the hypertrophy literature says that the optimal rep range for hypertrophy are 5-30 reps and for strength 1-3 /1-5 reps.

Is it a waste of time to put in sets of 1-3 / 1-5 reps if what I’m looking for is hypertrophy? (This is the main question)

I am a fan of many bodybuilders, but occasionally I see them perform in these 1-3 /… Read more

Thanks all for the answers👏🏻🙌🏼

Hi Rich. Just try that bar for a while and do some progressive overload, see how my body feels to the hex bar set up.

I would like to know in which split to put it.

I’ve never done a hex bar deadlift and plan on doing it. I have noticed that the execution looks like a squat / deadlift hybrid by having a lot of knee flexion.

I would like to know your opinion.

Should I add it to my pull or leg days? Maybe add density day?

I currently do: Pull, Push, OFF, Legs, OFF

Pull 1: Deadlift
Pull 2: SLDL
Legs 2: RDL

Thanks guys 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼

I recently switched to a gym that doesn’t have the adductor machine. I don’t want to stop working my adductors because I have had enormous results in terms of aesthetics and stability.

Is there any alternative to work them?

I have seen recommendations in the field of nutrition between 1200 and 1500mg a day. Currently I do not consume dairy (good source) because it inflames me. However, I consume other sources of calcium such as sardines and broccoli, but even so, 1200-1500mg daily are not reached. My performance in training and recovery is good but I don’t know if… Read more
