    No sides from the var. very minor back pumps but not nearly as debilitating as other orals, but I’m also healthier than I have ever been. anxiety was good for a couple weeks, been really bad the last week now unfortunately. Probably gonna increase the Zoloft because it was making me feel better...

    Brother I can do 2 sets of 10 for chin ups at 200lbs, that’s insane. Lol

    Had to go light on legs last night and skip squats altogether (replaced with heavy leg press - meh, definitely feel the difference between the two), my lower back and knee were both hurting pretty good. Gonna pick up some general joint health supps this weekend.

    Yeah lots of Covid going around me lately, been putting people down for several days even healthy ones. So feeling better already is a good sign! Like already mentioned maybe just a nice reminder to take some rest because you’re certainly going hard lol

    I think part of my problem is I sleep on my side, there is no way to do so without putting my shoulders in a funky position I don’t think. Just have a hard time falling asleep on my back. shoulder was feeling better but think I slept funky last night. I’ve always had really bad joints, one...

    You’re one of the smartest guys I know and I’ve never slept around you so I could be off base here but you should definitely bring this to the top of your list! With how big you get I am sure you need one - hell going from 190-200lbs was a big enough difference for me that I am trying to get...

    Injectable L carnitine best carb for insulin activity / timing?

    I do daily IM injections. 1ml a day, I make my own injectable carnitine at 500mg/ml. Nothing crazy results wise - I hired a coach this cut so it’s hard to tell what carnitine has done specifically. I can contribute additional vascularity and pumps but that’s the only thing I can pin point to...

    Injectable L carnitine best carb for insulin activity / timing?

    I workout at 6pm and inject carnitine around 5pm and have no issues. I believe taking with carbs only helps make the saturation period faster.. once saturated, dosage can drop and combing with carbs isn’t as important - I think. I notice no difference with or without carbs. When I started I...

    Yesterday’s check in went well.. weights sitting at 200lbs flat. big jump from vacation still but overall bloat is down and he thinks we look okay and was going to up my calories sometime this week. strength is going up, but so is joint pain so kind of double edged sword because I want to keep...

    Also wanted to note - I’m not paying nearly as much for this coach as I was thinking. So long as his pricing doesn’t increase or he doesn’t push me to his next “tier” I can justify him. Cheaper than a months run of handful of supplements I’d be trying and getting less out of anyways.

    Great way of looking at it, thank you. Still trying to figure out the whole self positivity/self empowerment stuff and honestly never would have noticed that phrase being negative towards my mindset or used as a coping mechanism. Really appreciate you pointing it out. Side note - i hate “self...

    That makes perfect sense, not trying to negate coaches work or what all they do by any meanszx you’re right that is a perfect point I didn’t think about. It makes sense - I guess just for me personally I need to learn to control myself and hold myself accountable. I have enough resources now to...

    Weight after vacation was 205lbs, up from 192lbs lol (it was 195 week previous not sure why the drop to 192 so it looks worse) Last update (Sunday) was 5 days after vacation back on meal plan and weight was down to 201 and that seems to be where I'm going to hover. Vacation was good, averaged...

    Classic Kleen - The Road To Competition Fall 2024

    Trying to catch back up just glanced over weights hoping to see some nudes but didn’t find any. weight looks like it went down then back up to 200lbs. You are transitioning to a gaining phase correct?

    Classic Kleen - The Road To Competition Fall 2024

    I think there’s a lot of evidence out there now that training for size is not nearly as complicated as it is made out to be. I’m sure you know this but just going in and training hard every day is going to be the ticket, probably not whether you decide to do BB squats vs smith squats or even...

    Yeah we are staying downtown the entire time. We’ve had our countless homeless encounters but I always just ignored them, got used to it working in Dallas. But while I love to give when I can, when it comes to pizza, I’m saving that for when I am about to lay down at midnight and remember “oh...

    Do you all use GW for anything other than lipids? I’ve always been weary due to original cancer claims so I never looked further into it.
