Hi
Age-42
U.S- Yes
Years of training- 20+ - trained intially for sport specific training - mainly baseball at the time as I was a catcher and then transistioned to competive softball and continued to catch for many years. eventually changed the training program to be more strength and have started leaning towards bodybuilding, even at my age. Did have time on and off with training for a variety of reasons but have been "in to it" for a year or so.
How AS would benifit you? i.e cycle, pct, standalone?- the benifit would be in the hoped for relief of knee joint pain. Have had ACL replaced and 3 other knee surgerys, not to metion many, many injections of cort. in knees and shoulders along with Synn visc. Still have Knee joint pain in Left knee specifically, some days better then others.
Training split/program- 3 days on, one off, each body part 2 times per week except legs 1 time per week. Various reps and sets depending on feel and body part.
Diet-Could be better and is heading there, my excess baggage had dropped by 30lbs this year. Hi Protien(300 to 350 g), moderate carbs(250 - 275g) and fat is around 75grams.
What your looking for - knee and joint pain relief mainly, would like to prolong the need to have knee replacement surgery as I the preference is not to do this until I am 50, so I have 8 years to go and try to make it. Bottom line, is in 8 years, I will have a knee replaced, but if the pain is lessened until then, that would be great.
Past Logs, Please post links- Sorry, really do not have any, but I am particular at tracking both progress and routine. I use a spread sheet to track all and results. I spend a fair amount of time reviewing and tracking, and time on AM.
Any other bonus items you guys want to throw in to spice these ap's up- I have used and tried many other OTC type joint support, some help a bit some do nothing. joint support(Con/Gluc) and A cortisol control are current ones, but of you have to load up and if you stop, the issues return and you are back at it. I do expect this to be the same way. Not that I would stop using it if it worked, but, with the others, if you stop for a few days, the issues return fast and besides, they never completely go away with the current supps.
