Hi all I recently had a thread but it got trolled so I'm starting a new one.
A little about me: I'm 23, f, from aus and I'm currently aiming to achieve a physique of those who compete in fitness and then possibly physique. (Not looking to compete but looking to achieve that physique.) I am a...
Thanks that's all been really helpful - will up my vit c and keep on top of my diet.
I will start playing with the anabolic diet next week. Mainly because I know that I feel alot better without regular carbs, I love protein and I have no trouble getting healthy natural fats into my diet!
I...

I will look up those exercises :)

Which I should have known but wasn't putting much effort into actual muscle growth and...
Thanks pyrobatt - the general consensus I got was to add a few carbs in or refeed with the addition of some hit and fasted cardio + heavy ab work & compound movements....
Would you say refeed pre or post ab workout?
I would have to get a copy of my blood work but from memory
Thyroid TSH was almost 2.5. Started treating it as it used to be lower. Test again in a few months to check that's its not going the wrong way.
