2nd cycle log

What's good fellas, fairly new around here but experienced on other forums so I wanted to make a log just to keep myself active. This is my second cycle with test only. Running 500 mg of E a week pinning on Monday and Thursday. I rotate between delts and glutes because quads are awful, or maybe I'm just a bitch. Exmestane is 8-10 mg a day. Diet is 220 protein, 70 fat, 400 carb but if the scale doesn't start climbing faster will slowly bump those up. Training split is push, legs, pull, off, arms, legs, I can go into more detail if anyone cares or wants to know. I'm 6'1" 215 and will post pics when I get time. Any opinions or questions are more than welcome. We're all gonna make it brahhs.
 
I'm in
 
Bumped my macros to 220 protein 425 carb 75 fat. Legs coming later. Squatted 345 for a dub on Saturday so hopefully I can hit it hard.

385x1 pr..my belt was pinching my sides bad and this set wasn't the right one to adjust my placement.
The bar was pinching the tip of my dink at ******* so I just stuck it in my compression shorts facing the ceiling srs woulda been something to write home about if my ******* was 1" above my knee a la richard Hawthorne but as long as I can make her think 3" is really 6 that's all that matters rite

Was watching a 3dmj YouTube video and he advised using a pistol grip on all back exercises. It's just taking your pointer and thumb off the bar. I feel like it was easier to pull with my elbows this way. Poundage suffered but contractions and pump were better.
