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. -
I know, it's a me thing lol. I always want to look a certain way. And Orlando and Disney is pretty much all sloppy middle-aged ppl. And my girl could care less. She likes when Im out of shape...

Hey All, My name's Bryant. I'm 42. My life is very cliche. Played sports in high school, was in decent shape even though I was skinny and couldn't gain weight in the gym no matter how much I ate... -
Hyde replied to the thread Rockslide’s Settling In and Making Progress Log.Yeah I’d say just progress deads modestly as you can for now as an accessory moreso (so to speak), then as you gain greater technical proficiency & condition to them eventually you could rotate...

I agree. I was surprised how much of a difference it is. I’m going to start working on both. I do love the trap bar though. Got my form pretty dialed in with it and can do them with 100% comfort...

Hyde replied to the thread Hyde’s Strength Odyssey.I think half an inch or so since 250s, but really not much at all for dropping 30lbs - which I think has been key to keeping my bench strength nearly static over the descent. Keeping the muscle...

Hyde replied to the thread We cuttin now ✂️.I’d say you’re looking pretty good man, especially from the bodyfat perspective. Nobody knows how muscular you have been when they see you; they only see what’s in front of them. So if you’re lean...

Of course I didn't stop after I ate that and I continued on with two bowls of frosted mini wheats cereal and a couple bites of ice cream. Anywho, I'm definitely a little downsized but at least...

Hyde replied to the thread HAVEN’T WEIGHT TRAINED IN 3 YEARS-LOOKING FOR ADVICE TO RESTART.Recovering from surgery is hard & daunting, but it’s important to view it as a new beginning, not an ending! All my best lifting has been done after my elbow surgeries and extensive back rehabs...

Surgery went great, more extensive than originally planned but great!! Only a few days out and I have virtually no pain (except upon too much exertion for too long), I can raise my arm completely...

Hyde replied to the thread Building Back Up.The diet is working! Keep doing what you’re doing man. They are a solid option for hypertrophy to create a novel stimulus to cycle through for tried and true compounds, but you do want to be...

Weight: 202.8 Half a pound away from my ten year low! Honestly, pretty sure i was stronger and leaner then, but happy about the progress. Limb workout in a bit. Been using 2.25mg lunesta the...

Sorry I know not everyone agrees with me but I hate smith machines, I absolutely hate them. I personally think they're unsafe for most people. Especially the bench press imo which has the most...

Thanks fellas. A little stroke of the ego every once and a while does me some good! But I think reality is that I do hold most of my fat in my midsection primarily - so even at my leanest point...

thats all true, the human body can fluctuate a lot. I keep seeing this post pop up this week: and I keep thinking about it a lot because at my leanest I think brad still had better abs, in...

I've never been able to do that. I don't even like the waist band of boxer briefs when I'm sleeping tbh. Well then you know as well as I do that the discipline/motivation chart still rings...

Hyde replied to the thread When to start GH?.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...

Hyde replied to the thread Hyde’s Strength Odyssey.I would not recommend using a grip besides DOH for your deadlifts until it becomes a problem. I do not anticipate you will need to consider it this meet prep, and like you said it will strengthen...

Great session! Sounds like curls helped out and a win win.

Hyde replied to the thread Rockslide’s Settling In and Making Progress Log.The Trapbar IS a good tool for total body development & strength, as it hits a lot and is fairly sparing to the back. It has its uses. But there’s a reason people like Louie Simmons and Mark...

Probably should have took progress pics before this meal. I didn't eat all day so I went overboard on dinner

Hyde replied to the thread HAVEN’T WEIGHT TRAINED IN 3 YEARS-LOOKING FOR ADVICE TO RESTART.Sorry to hear this! Glad the surgery went okay (it sounds like). It’s okay to be upset when bad things happen; they did and it sucks. BUT it’s important you realize that spilt milk is just that...

Hyde replied to the thread When to start GH?.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...
