    I agree with all that. loved them for RDLs but I had a bad habit of giving up form quality on heavy pulls from the ground when I used straps. although now I'm curious since its been so long...

    when I was doing them a lot it was in that moment of desperation when I was just willing to try anything to fix my back. I do think they had some positive carryover, but Segs post above reminded...

    We are your safe space brother! Also I don't think any of us ever try to post our worst shots. Well unless maybe there is a transformation contest, then bloat it out, don't shave and don't flex...

    You need to find a way to get out of this fence business and exclusively focus on consuming these delicious farm breakfasts instead 😭

    Thanks Kat! I am having a busy day, but didn't want to disappear on my log. I got in a "decent" training session over the weekend but it really taxed my lungs trying to lift in a hot gym when my...

    All that being said …. I have met people well into their 80s and some in their 90s on HRT. I’ve seen people with bad chronic health conditions in mid 70s significantly improve their health with...

    Why would you not be able to pop a little insulin syringe in your thigh once every couple weeks when you’re 80? I mean I’d say you do it until you’re ready to die; the point of the therapy is to...

    Well the whole point is to never end up in a nursing home…. Time to stop TRT is when there is no clinical benefit . Most people with good quality of life benefit from it long term.

    Yeah at your age it will probably be a lifelong commitment. Insurance is only going to cover if you are below 300, on 2 draws before 10 am . A lot of TRT clinics would prescribe for you though if...

    Yes that’s a decent PCT protocol. Make sure you give the testosterone a couple weeks to clear out before starting the Nolva (if you used enanthate or cypionate; propionate you only need to wait...

    I'm curious, do you get blood work after PCT? I'm wondering what your numbers come back at given that you're in your late 50s. Also, I don't know how much free time you have and if it's even...

    I’m assuming you don’t have a coach, so my advice is based on that (if you do, listen to them). The water GH adds varies but it will come off fast if you pull it, within a few days. So I would...

    There’s a lot of truth in what Hyde was saying about using straps. Trying to target a specific body part like RDL/SDL you don’t want your grip to fail before you exhaust the targeted body part...
