    Curious what mix you are looking for here, I like adding in avocado to my meat meals when doing low carb, but that does bring in some carbs, lots of fiber so that might help on keeping net carbs...

    It’s crazy how easy the fats can sneak up in food. Apologies I am a little behind you running a health phase for a bit before cranking back up?

    I apply my carnitine gel either to chest/traps on upper body days, or quads/thighs for lower or cardio days. Unsure it makes a difference placement wise locally, but I figure if so might as well...

    That's helpful context. Good point about individual metabolism, effects, etc. It's hard to really tell what is a good starting point vs "too much" right out of the gate though with all of these...

    Yeah man I get all I can in the fall. I don’t really hunt much anymore, but I’ve got a buddy anytime he kills more than one deer, he gives me one. I got him hooked up with the Meat Store...

    Not totally relevant, but not irrelevant... I remember some years ago I think before I owned that gym, that I realized how many achilles tears actually happen after age 40. It's substantial, and...

    Man that is so true, and I definitely would rather go slower than have another injury.

    Yeah I thought that as well, but I figured I would rather be under than over. I actually benched 230 x 10 a couple weeks ago, so I was sure 275 was definitely light on max, but since I had not...

    Yep that was my thought too…. I liked adding the Spoto bench too. I think as I get into the heavier weights that will pay dividends.

    I'd be surprised if your true max was 275 considering how well your 10 rep sets have been going, but building a base never hurts. I suspect you'll recover really well on this with it being a bench...

    Yeah I’d run it the next 2 weeks first and then decide if you need to raise the TM more than 5lbs.

    No I’m not doing 5/3/1 on squats and deadlifts, just bench and overhead press. I’ll stick with the numbers, because eventually I know it will get more challenging as the workouts progress, and...

    I’m on 125 mg a week and that keeps me right around 850 when I do my bloodwork.

    I could see arguments in both directions, you won't be applying 5-3-1 to deadlifts or squats right? A 225 x 10 bench probably does put you around 300lbs (so 275 TM seems approriate on paper?) but...

    Can you remind me, have you mentioned what dose of TRT you're on and have you done bloodwork lately? Curious at what test levels, etc. you're keeping hormones at if you're willing to share.

    even on those days I'm feeling tired I just remind myself that if I make to the gym to lift the management will probably pump in some yoga pants through the hvac to make the visit worth it.
