Feeling great today and deload will move thru Wednesday for bloodwork Saturday morning before returning to normal training intensity for Back later that day.

How often do you usually do a deload? Just kinda listen to your body?

 

[Hyde]

How often do you usually do a deload? Just kinda listen to your body?

Yeah depends on training, diet, PEDs in play. 5/3/1 recommends after every or every other 3-wk wave based on feel, so I did 6 weeks the first time then 3 now. Being in a deficit my risk for injury & fatigue are greater, and with the androgens supercharging my strength I need to be even more careful to control my output - tendons don’t strengthen as fast as the muscles. Plus it works out well timing wise to be able to draw late cycle bloods (your creatinine & eGFR will be useless if you don’t take ~72 hours off training prior), and be fresh for the last 3 weeks on blast. Think I’m going to try those 15mg Sdrol caps the last 2 weeks to see if they’re legit.

That makes sense, I always say I’m going to but it’s definitely been a while. I’m interested to see how that SD treats you. I think you’re speaking of the sd/halo mix.

Yeah there’s only 52 caps in that unopened bottle it turns out & so there’s no way I can be confident it’s legit. Just going to add a cap in and see if it doesn’t help keep nitrogen retention high.

Can’t really call it a deload - continuing to widen the base on the squats & deads. Trapbar is replacing Legpress now that I’m back in the garage full time. It’s harder mentally to get myself in the garage solo for these evening sessions after work (vs just going to the gym first thing early), but once there it really feels like my training is more focused: no distractions from a singular purpose.

Bodyweight continuing to fall back to 240 - about 9-10lbs lost in 10 weeks!

Is your trap bar rackable? Not that I need anymore specialty bars right now but I keep thinking if that’s even something I’d take advantage of when I buy one again.

239.2 this morning - down over 10lbs

Finishing an hour of fasted cardio now.

Sam’s had sashimi-grade wild caught Norwegian salmon for only $8/lb! Had a couple 10oz meals already the last 2 days and looking forward to pan frying some more for breakfast with some green beans.

Nope - it’s a little old one I scored for $40 that I can only load to like 500 and it ONLY has the 2 inch high handles. Not sure why it was built that way, but a great tool for basically free!

Easy speedy deload. Last lift before bloods Saturday morning hopefully. Enjoyed the 2 board and think it will be a good builder while giving the pecs a break; I feel like I’ve pushed incline as far as I can on this day for now.

Got a body scan today. Not as lean as I want to be yet, but I already knew that. However, I think it’s cool to see that over the last 8 months/2 cycles I have managed to net over 6.5lbs of muscle while dropping 5% bodyfat! Looking to follow this up in 3 weeks to see what the final composition shows:

238.0 today (-11.5lbs)

Yesterday was 2 hours of LISS (75 min fasted and 45 min after meal 2) bringing cardio to 4 hours this week - one more 45 min fasted session coming up shortly today. Calories were 2,000 yesterday with extremely low fat.

Dienelone’s last shot was Wednesday the 30th. Used 150mg Masteron E/shot in lieu of the 250mg Dien E for this past weeks 2 shots, and that killed the vial of test e (been using 105mg twice a week). Final shot this Sunday will be exclusively 300mg Mast E.

Bloodwork tomorrow morning first thing, then it will be time to start the finishing orals for the last 16 days. 30mg S23 split into 3 doses daily (on top of the 15mg preWO only I’ve been using) & I have some alleged 15mg Superdrol/25mg Halodrol caps I will be adding once a day. Going to do 90mg Trenavar for a week starting Sunday (burning up an open bottle and taking up some androgenic/fat burning slack as the Dien clears), then 10mg Dbol the last 8 days after that as test gets very low to feel it out.

Not sure if weight will get any lower, but I know I can still lose more fat!

Really felt the increase in heart rate from the orals and missing the endurance from Cardarine. Hunger is high; starting to struggle on 2100-2400 cals, but hopefully the orals will curb that soon.

Going into the hospital late Monday night for the wife to be induced - she’s 39 weeks along today and it’s about time to become a father!!!

Ate 2,500-2,600 cals yesterday and dropped 1.8lbs from yesterday, so doing that again today!

Final shot of the cycle was today - no more test, ended up being 460mg mast e to finish the old vial off. 90mg Trendione added today through next Saturday.

Stopped the transdermal helios setup to spend some “quality time” easier with the wife before the baby comes, and I realized I won’t be doing any further transdermal with a newborn, so that experiment is a wrap!

First lift since my son was born; had to work it in quick & didn’t have a liftoff on bench or time to hit tris after, but it went well enough & felt good to get it in.

Diet has been pretty much completely out the window, as has sleep, from Tuesday on, but we’re starting to figure out the newborn groove and getting back on the wagon in the morning. Wife is eager to begin dropping some baby weight, which will make my compliance much easier.

The boy is healthy and everything is going great at home - can’t believe how much I love him already! What a blessing.

Added over 10% weight to the rows and volume to chin-ups over last week, doubled the top sets on bicep work. I think the cap of 15mg Sdrol/25mg Hdrol I’ve been using the last week may be legit. Feeling that oral power surge (and intraworkout lethargy). The little bit of Tvar I was using daily last week (90mg) was replaced today with 10mg Dbol, which feels great so far. S23 is at 45mg, and this setup will carry me through this last week while oil finishes clearing.

You seem to be adjusting well. Glad everything is going well bro. Im sure you’re already a diaper changing machine

You seem to be adjusting well. Glad everything is going well bro. Im sure you’re already a diaper changing machine

We did a ton of diapers together initially while we figured out the nuances, but now it’s pretty much smooth sailing even solo. Also currently specializing in sponge baths & baby-burping

I am getting plenty of sleep at night since I can’t feed him yet, but the wife is struggling for sleep so I have still been pulling training back to help morally support her for the minute. I was all ready to squat last night, but Mom just needed some extra support from Dad. But life is good and we’re figuring it out!

The boy seems pretty strong truthfully. He lifts his neck up a lot and actually already flipped himself completely over onto his back during tummy time this morning! He will be 9 days old tonight.

 

[Hyde]

UPDATE:

I have decided to finally make the move to blasting & cruising.

I had planned to PCT at least one last time after this cycle and to probably start cruising later this year, but with a healthy newborn and our family planning completed, it doesn’t make sense at this high cortisol busy time to throw all of my progress away with the further stress of a PCT just to arbitrarily wait a few more months. I am ready. My wife is on board and knows I will weigh all risk considerations on the side of caution.

I have been cycling for 9.5 years, since I turned 21, and it was always a forgone conclusion TRT would be medically necessary at some point. It is not currently, but I have found the last year or so that coming off is costing me more and more progress, and I never really feel that great off cycle anymore energy or libido-wise, even with great hormone levels and bloodwork on paper. I look forward to getting back on where I feel good again, which is crazy if you think about the stress of a blast still being favorable to off time - it should be the other way around. I have probably done 20+ cycles already at this point; I know PEDs are for me.

I have some strength goals I wish to focus on before my time in this game is over, and I am not getting any younger, so the best time to start pushing is now. You don’t see a lot of 300lb guys alive or doing well in their 50s. Since I have no intention of being able to satisfy a clinic’s bloodwork requirements on their schedule for the foreseeable future, this will be a self-guided effort for now. I will be monitoring bloodwork even more frequently, with more parameters ultimately as well.

 

[trumac]

Welcome to the club. I always forget you are actually younger than I am lol. With the knowledge you very obviously have I would imagine you will be able to keep yourself just as healthy if not healthier than a doc anyway.

Dead More huge poundage increases over the previous week; finally back over 300lbs on squat/pull. No issues or pain, weight moving really well. Just using a neoprene soft belt & still double overhand gripping the regular bar on deadlifts at this point. I tightened up my lever powerbelt 2 holes (inches) from the meet and it’s barely tight enough for training - probably need to bring it in a 3rd whenever I start using it.

Pinned 100mg test e Thursday morning to get some going again. Sunday is last day of 10mg Dbol/15mg Sdrol/25mg Hdrol/50mg S23.

Will be doing 75mg test e on Sundays and Wednesdays (150/wk) for cruise, as well as 12.5mg Ostarine for now.

Moving Big Weight !!!

I wish I felt that way, but I can gratefully say it feels great to be making obvious progress back!

Still been eating a lot of good food with family visiting the baby & adjusting to dad life, so decided to put it to use & do a little powerlifting. Haven’t done any singles or even held anything over 300 in months, so I wanted to kinda warm up the pathways while keeping it safe - took my current estimated raw max for a double in the slanger. What a blast!

Last day on. Pinned 75mg test e for my cruise, used a 29g 1/2” slinpin for the first time for oil - pushed like butter and time to draw only 0.25ml is still negligible. I believe the SD/Hdrol caps are likely real, and I really enjoyed the 10mg Dbol experiment. Very smooth, just a great ride. Obviously wet. Looking forward to using the rest at 20 or 30mg sometime.

Is the Phoenix like a slingshot?

Is the Phoenix like a slingshot?

Yes, check out Invictus Powerlifting. Definitely a better design than the Slingshot & at the same price. He also has some excellent menthol smelling salts:

I think I’m going to buy the more aggressive model from Invictus at some point, the Leviathan. The Phoenix is more of a raw lifter tool while the Leviathan is geared more towards assistance for shirted training.

@Hyde congrats on the baby, nothing better in this world than being a Dad to a healthy baby boy!

First day of cruising proper. Like I mentioned, 12.5mg Ostarine daily and 150mg test e/wk split Sunday/Wednesday. Didn’t really want to leave the boy & go to the garage to do this session, but I made some good progress. Great sign to be able to do these barbell rows beltless still!
