Pinning... you seem to be focusing on health a bit more and out of the things that work pinning is the healthiest option. Otherwise there are some decent transdermals out there, and something like Androhard or one of the many knockoffs at a relatively high dose would be nice for you. Does not convert to estrogen or anything but if you run it high enough to really be noticeable results you will need to PCT. If you can find some Trenavar or the like they could also be good options but then you need to be watchful of prolactin issues. Easy enough with P5P but it is still a consideration.
Can you give me an idea of how you would run the androhard (pumps per day, times per day) and what PCT you'd run? More than half the reason I haven't ventured any further than my standard OTC stuff is because I simply don't know enough about it. I have multiple calls into my doc for a blood panel and am not getting an appt yet... still working it will call again today. we have local mens clinics but they have really really bad reviews (like "paid $300 for consult and blood work, never got answer, they want $300 more to give me results, etc. etc.). 10 years ago I could damn near walk into my doc and she'd give me an hour long visit. Now days its like pulling teeth to get 5 minutes.
Front squats EMOTM, getting real up in here!!!
You may be able to recover some of that strength and energy for your sessions by having 1 big protein and carb heavy meal the night before after a 24 hour fast compared to the 36 hour fast then trying to carb up before your sessions. You could also be experiencing leverage differences from the weight loss. You are going to suffer from worse leverage points the smaller you make yourself. So even if muscle strength has not gone down the muscles have to apply more force to move the same weight due to worse leverage.
started sustain alpha at the beginning of January. The reviews were good and it seemed like a fine stand alone product to add into my daily regiment. 3 pumps a day based upon my weight and I noticed nothing. Yesterday and today I increased it to 4.
Tuesday night after dinner I fasted about 24hrs until Weds dinner. I had a fat burger + all the carbs I could get my hands on. doing my best I estimated it at around a 1200 calorie feed. Thursday morning broke my fast immediately with protein shake in my coffee and my normal grits + ground turkey for breakfast.
Full lunch, 1 cup of jasmine rice + 6oz of chicken, salad, etc.
Had another 71g of carbs via sticky rice about 1hr pre-workout and another protein shake intra workout after my working set of squats. When I finally got to the last two lifts of the day I started "waking up" and feeling some form of aggression. It seems like it really takes my body a bit longer to respond to my intake.
For dinner we skipped Spanish class and went out. I had an 8oz angus burger on brioche with roasted red potatoes, plus some of my wife's left over tots and brioche. I could practically feel the fat and carbs soaking (much needed) into my joints and deflated muscles. I woke up today at 184.6lbs. down another .2lbs since yesterday. Despite having a full nearly 3k calorie day and not having removed the large food from my stomach yet...
IDK if maybe I'm finally seeing some results from the sustain alpha in terms of metabolism or if this is normal from long fasts. It does seem like when I do a full 24-36hr fast I continue burning fat like crazy into the next day or two.
The EMOTM front squats... I sorta forced that upon myself because I could tell my gas tank was just empty and I was sorta getting light headed in heavy sets. sometimes if I set a timer it helps me hold myself accountable and get the work in.
