Had a great leg day today 5 sets of 8 on the squats then on leg press , extensions and curls I tried something new, on every set I did 10 reps with both legs then slightly dropped the weight and hit 5 reps each leg , reps were slow with a good squeeze , gave me a great pump. Still feeling better daily only thing I will note side effects wise, is the amount of acne on my shoulders and back is ridiculous I guess that's from the hormone imbalance and because I'm prone but I'm doubling up on the proactive. Another thing is I guess the laxogen is helping me heal quickly too, not just feeling less sore but also my right wrist feels perfectly fine even thou my left one is fucced (this has been going on before the andros) but also my lower back hasn't been in as much "pain" as normal , my shoulders feel fine and at the end of the cycle my right one was giving me some problems, I know the joints might have just been dry but feel even better then before so I'll give it up to the super laxo. Energy throughout the day has been great better then ever , definitely haven't lost anything I gained (probably still making gains lol) maybe a little extra chunk right now but that's my fault you guys know how every bulk ends lol and me and my girl haven't been doing the best at eating at home while I get the clean options it's still eating out (I.e. Got a plate of chicken with arugula last night) and even though I meal prepped she drags me out lol but I'm not too worried right now. other then that not much else as I said earlier I'm more then satisfied with how everything is back to normal if not better then normal, still got 2 more weeks of pct and then a couple months of nothingness lol , need to order some new protein today if only @<u><a href="http://anabolicminds.com/forum/member.php?u=240038" target="_blank">smith_69</a></u> would drop that proSYNC id be good but now I gotta go out and actually choose something lol

He'll yeah I wanna do my bicep finisher (which from now on shall be known as Alpha curls lol) in them you know how awesome that would be. Give it a shot grab a 40 lb bar and the 20lb dbs and keep doing switching when you hit failure until you get to 90 seconds the pump I get is beyond ridiculous in bands it'd be crazy
Sparkss do that as a finisher tomorrow and let me know how it goes if you do bro!

I will give it a shot, although with lower weights. I am tentative on any bicep movements due to them having to re-attach the top of my bicep (to the back of my shoulder blade) as part of the reconstructive surgery. So I am kind of chicken about going too heavy. Those BB and DB weights are my regular workout weights LOL. Which is why I have been looking at the BFR bands, to try to make some progress even though I am stuck on the smaller end of the weights.

Plus, I work out at home w/ a set of powerblocks (only), although I do have the BB attachment, to switch from BB to DB on a super set would be a PITA :). Hmmmm, although I could make it work, now that I think of it. Empty the BB weighs in at 25 (had to go look :)) and I can go light on the DBs and super set them that way. Since I am on the lower end of weight capacity anyways, I could (will) use that as my finisher. I will report back tomorrow, although I suspect I am asking for trouble diving in with that finisher super set for my first time using BFR bands LOL. Sounds like fun!

It's still Kevin hart but he's more serious in this one it's like they change roles the Rock is the comedian and Kevin was the serious one in the 4 years I've been with my girl we've only gone to the movies about 4 times but this one was definitely worth it bro some good laughs and a crap ton of action lol

New PR alert ! New PR alert ladies and germs we have ourselves a brand new PR! 315x5 on the bench press! I went in and said you know I haven't been able to get it let me start doing a 5x5 structure program drop down to 285 and progress by 5-10 lbs weekly but when I walked in the gym I saw one of my boys I don't see in there too often and started getting the idea to go for it. So when I loaded 275 I looked at it and said FVCCK that ! And switched it for 315 told him to spot me with no lift off he yelled at me I smacked myself and before you know it I was on the 4th rep with both of us yelling out a bunch of curse words at me, he was calling me names I was going Super Saiyan and then that 5th rep went up smooth as a baby. Got confirmation from the audience of people watching that it was all clean reps and it was all good. It felt great, definitely proves I'm doing something right. After that though I might switch to focusing on incline and using flat as a secondary for a couple weeks with the goal of putting 315 up for one on incline. Great pump today great workout focused entirely on chest.

As far as pct goes today starts the 3rd week so I dropped nolva to .5ml = 10mgs so definitely looking forward to coming off it. Might get me some mass gainer powder to add some liquid calories to maybe get me up to 208-212 before I start to cut we will see. (Any recommendations on mass gainers are appreciated as I have mixed feelings about them)

Mass Gainers are usually over priced for small amounts of servings. But there are some BOGO deals on Muscle & Strength right now, ON has a good gainer but I don't know if that's in their sale and congrats on the PR, knew you could do it bro!

Lol kind of explains my mixed feelings , but thanks bro ill check it out going to look for something local but I know a couple places price match so I'll pull that up . And thanks man it felt freaking awesome kind of makes me want to think about competing but idk if my strengths at that level yet. I know my squat and deadlift aren't but at least a bench only comp to see what it's like

Congrats on the PR, even more impressive to have done it during your PCT! I have been chicken about PHs due to concerns over PCT (I turn 50 next year and for some reason that # is freaking me out a bit, things just don't work like they used to and it is progressive LOL). Your PCT experience is encouraging, to say that least!

Hah thank you bro !! I was worried at first too cuz I had bad experience with what must have been suppression from Sarms but I didn't know what it was I just knew I was unmotivated and kinda depressed then I found out it's cuz I didn't pct correctly. That's why I have so much stuff in my pct I was too worried about feeling that way again but it's been great so far , feeling better then when I was on lol that SA has been great for my mood

I didn't get to workout yesterday, but I did today. I included your Alpha Curls finisher :). They felt good, although as they were also my first attempt at BFR I am not sure I was doing either one correctly LOL. I will definitely keep them in my arsenal for future workout though, thank for sharing them!! :D

Haha for sure bro ! I trained with 2 people from work (1 Friday and 1 today) and both of them said the same thing after that finisher "damn it's been a long time since I've had such a good workout" had me cracking up they used the same exact phrase

Nothing really to report today , forced rest day , I ate way too much this weekend which I'm ok with I woke up at 206. Energy is good moods still good , libidos good and all getting better daily , decided on ordering another SA. Decided not to go with the mass gainer instead I'm Planning out my recomp after pct gunna be 6-8 weeks goal is to stay at 200 and get leaner probably going to be ECY and possibly Forskolin with calories at 100+/- maintenance with as clean as possible foods. Let me know what you guys think too not losing muscle will be the main focus

today's leg workout straight from Jims website , I know some of you guys aren't fans but this workout was killer unfortunately time wasn't on my side so had to cut out the walking lunges and my body said nope to those RDLs but will be going at this again on Sunday. The squats were amazing thou I had 285 on the bar for the first 3 sets and pushed the 8 reps then had to drop it down to 225 for the last two sets because when I went to unrack 285 on the 4th set my legs laughed at me, my damn quad almost popped off (@smith_69 lol). At the end of the workout I dropped my water on the ground . Choices had to be made . My water bottle did not make it out of the gym lol. The pump was literally out of this world and the intensity and focus were on point with the white flood.

Oh don't get me wrong. Stick with the program you're on now. When it's time to change you can look at the Arnie Blueprint.

Also, in regards to this, if your deficit is mild-moderate you won't risk losing too much muscle till you get close to single digit body fat. Just train your ass off 4-5 days a week on weights, keep protein high, and cardio moderate and you'll be fine.

Thanks brother, you know how it is always wanting to be bigger but always wanting to be leaner lol that's why I hate cutting but that's the plan right now train 5 days a week , and keep macros at 350p 275-325c and 75f with ECY and cardio minimum 4 times a week, hoping just to lean out without shrinking too much lol
