Thanks man! Strength just keeps going up its some fun stuff
From memory GW can generate a certain degree of muscle fibre type conversion, which could account for the effects on power output.
Crap. I just ordered Cardar1ne with my Legend. Not sure this is in line with my goals.

You train almost exclusively with lower reps, correct? You'll likely be fine (and I say 'likely' only because I detest speaking in absolutes). The fibre conversion would typically occur most noticeably if one were training almost exclusively with higher reps; as you probably know, this is a process that tends to occur regardless of ones supplementation. In this scenario, its possible that GW could accentuate the 'use-it-or-lose-it' principle.
What drew you to Cardar1ne in the first place?
I am finding it very, very hard to get lean and get strong concurrently. So I am enlisting chemical help. I am using the LGD-4033 and it seems to be helping. My bench has been stagnant for over a year and in the last month I've added 30 lbs to it. (I was literally unable to bench 225 for the last year because I'm not built to bench -- or lift -- and I'm getting old...now I can do rep 235).) I'm planning to use the GW toward the last couple weeks of my LGD cycle as I approach my first powerlifting meet in over five years. Hoping it will help me make weight while staying strong...and help me look better overall. There are revealing pics of me over in my log and you can see I need to cut from 20% bodyfat down to 10%.
I'm mainly using the GW for its endurance benefits , LGD seems to be lowering my body fat on its own![]()
I was going to say, if I were in your position, I would be hesitant about running GW prior to a meet. Personally, Id leave it for another time, simply because you havnt run it before, and there are too many confounds involved. Further, that you are wanting to reduce BF, I imagine this could have a significant impact on your particular situation, with strength loss due to kcal deficiency a potential consideration.
You may end up finding GW has no negative impact on strength, but again, I wouldnt risk the adverse by trialling it before a meet when you need to be at peak.
Your call obviously, though.

Looking good, Joe! Strong v-shape, my man! I think kicking up the LGD is a great idea, hopefully you'll see a bit more progress in the 10mg range, bro!

Looking good bro!
Thanks Volvo I'm liking the changes in the mirror, scale, and on the weights
