    Doc was not loving my blood work today. Recommended Test C @ 160mg/wk for the next 12 weeks and then we'd reassess after another round of blood work. He was also not enthused by my BP, which has hovered around 130-135/90 since I was a teenager. Have been trying to avoid getting on BP meds by...

    Just gotta keep stacking together days like this and you'll be back to your old self in no time.

    Wish I had the level of faith in myself that you have in me lol. Just wrapped up 30 minutes on the elliptical for some evening cardio.

    Push from this AM. Didn't sleep great last night, but no real discernible reason why. Still had a solid workout and had plenty of time for it since I was up right on time. Prime Pec Deck: 250 x 8, 225 x 7 DB Lat Raise: 45 x 7, 40 x 8 (didn't want to wait for cables) Arsenal NG Incline: 180 x...

    Men's physique competitor is actually exactly what my coach and I talked about as the goal when I did the initial consultation before hiring them lol. And really only 20ish more pounds of muscle and then like 5lbs of fat and some amount of glycogen lol. That'd be low-200s at a similar body comp.

    I think we've talked about it before, but low-200s has always been where I've wanted to be (except when doing strongman, where I was pushing food to get to mid or even high-200s lol). Agree that I would look fucking gnarly at that weight if I could do it at or below 15% body fat. Honestly may...

    And do want to carry more mass lol. Just trying to stay leaner while building it these days. Based on the latest DEXA, I've near maxed out what I can probably carry naturally (FFMI around 24 @ sub 15% body fat), but would still like to carry probably 30 more pounds at similar body composition...

    Yes, definitely not something I'm taking lightly. And agree with all of the above. It's hard to know how much of my T suppression and the symptoms I've been experiencing are just the getting older and/or the lifestyle factors, but unfortunately I'm kind of locked into the lifestyle stuff by...

    Doctor's appointment tomorrow to discuss TRT. Was considering pushing it off and trying one more time this year after getting more summer sunlight, but my last results were pretty shockingly bad, so feel like it's worth having the frank conversation. May still want to wait and run some new...

    I can't even imagine how bad my body is going to start feeling as I keep getting older, because things have been rough for a while already lol

    10 minutes on the incline treadmill this morning followed by 20 on the stationary bike. Calves were getting way too pumped up on the incline and was starting to give like a shin splint situation, so I pivoted over. Bike sometimes hurts my arthritic knees, but was OK today.

    Did 27ish minutes of incline treadmill walking just now. Nothing crazy, just trying to get a little movement in since I've been pretty sedentary post-gym today.

    Upper this morning. Good session overall and pushed some additional weight or reps on most. Dealing with a little GI distress today. Assume some combination of the ridiculous amount of cheese and tomato yesterday. Lat Pulldown: 180 x 8, 160 x 8 Prime Pec Deck: 240 x 8, 220 x 6 Prime CS Lat...

    25 minutes incline treadmill this evening after dinner. Just bodyweight this time, but a pretty steep incline to get the HR up a little bit.

    Yeah, only one session so far, but felt a lot more grounded on pretty well everything.
