  1. Hit a wall and need some advice on supplementation

    Do you all think it would be a good idea to do a mini bulk for a month or two and then move back into deficit territory? Would that be enough to fix a broken metabolism (and ideally put on some additional lean mass before cutting again)?

  2. Hit a wall and need some advice on supplementation

    Thanks for the advice guys... I read mixed reviews on the whole IF thing, but figured I'd go with it since I don't really get hungry during the day if I skip breakfast (I would likely want to eat a lot if I do incorporate breakfast upon waking). I agree that my nutrition is likely lacking; I do...

  3. Hit a wall and need some advice on supplementation

    I appreciate the advice I have already received. I'll schedule the blood test soon as I am anxious to know where I stand too. Thanks again to all of you.

  4. Hit a wall and need some advice on supplementation

    Thanks. Average results via skin fold tests show about 163 lbs lean mass and about 22ish ponds fat. Mostly around my lower abdomen and lower back. I really want to lean down a bit more, but also want to move right into a lean bulk after that.

  5. Hit a wall and need some advice on supplementation

    No, I haven't done that yet.

  6. Hit a wall and need some advice on supplementation

    How would that work? I am currently fasting anywhere from 16 - 20 hours most days. I had read that doing so and training fasted would help with natural production of growth hormone, etc.. I am also attempting to go low carb at dinner-time, but haven't been overly strict on that since it's often...

  7. Hit a wall and need some advice on supplementation

    Thanks. So you think a cap of OxyMax in the morning (fasted) and a cap of shift pre-workout or afternoon would be a good approach to start?

  8. Hit a wall and need some advice on supplementation

    Just ordered OxyMax and Shift... Looking forward to trying this out with some heavy HIIT sessions... Thanks for the tip. Oh, do you think there would be any benefit/drawbacks to taking OTC test boosters or estrogen blockers with this stack? Thanks.

  9. Hit a wall and need some advice on supplementation

    Wow, I just looked them up and I'm intrigued. They both have a hefty ingredient list. I never thought about stacking two fat-burners. How long do you recommend running this stack? Are the stimulants in OxyMax very strong? I'm not overly sensitive, but don't want to have a HIIT-induced heart...

  10. Hit a wall and need some advice on sups

    The treadmill has been my go-to for LISS on off days, but I do like the idea of hill sprints. I'll definitely incorporate some more HIIT exercises. I will also schedule the hormone panel. Thanks again for all of the advice guys.

  11. Hit a wall and need some advice on sups

    Cool, I've been trying to reduce time between sets already, but I can bust out the old heart rate monitor to be sure I'm keeping HR elevated while continuing to lift heavy. I appreciate all of the advice...

  12. Hit a wall and need some advice on sups

    So do you recommend replacing strength training with circuits (could still lift heavy I suppose, just less volume)? Or maybe do speed circuits on some days and heavy sets on others?

  13. Hit a wall and need some advice on sups

    No, I haven't had it checked. I just assumed that my testosterone was low since diet and exercise got me to this point and then my progress seemingly halted. I figured if the cost was similar I might as well try something like an estrogen blocker or AI to see if it helped, but it would be good...

  14. Hit a wall and need some advice on supplementation

    Thanks; I'll have to look Ostashred up (sounds like a fat burner). Do you think it would be worth the expense to try the stack you recommended for a month, or would it be better (results and financially) to run 2 or 3 cycles of one or two of those options? I would prefer to avoid the cost of...

  15. Hit a wall and need some advice on sups

    I haven't tried going that long before (mainly due to dinner with family), but will give it a go. I probably already go under 20 grams several days per week, just not consecutive days. That might explain why my weight keeps fluctuating between 180-190. Thanks for the tip.

  16. Hit a wall and need some advice on sups

    Hey guys. I appreciate your help with this. I don't think it's loose skin as it is thick (maybe an inch when pinched). It just won't go away. I have tried carb cycling (maybe I wasn't doing it correctly). I tried going almost carb-free on non-lifting days and had fruit and oatmeal post workout...

  17. Hit a wall and need some advice on supplementation

    Hey guys, I'm new to the forum and could really use some advice. I'm 6'1" and 43 years old and I recently lost a ton of weight (went from 243 down to 185), but no matter what I try, I can't seem to lose the flab (mostly on my lower back and sides). I lost the weight over a period of 7 months and...
