    I definitely believe even one good cycle will have lasting physiological changes. They’ve done muscle biopsies and found increased muscle cells in those who had previously used but no longer did, plus the bone density adaptations. So at least 5 years later it was obvious positive adaptations...

    Solid refeed and great looking full body deload. Steps/neat/LISS has to be the primary cardio for this style of diet. That’s what Shelby Starnes, Palumbo, and Jamie Lewis all recommended with it, for same reasons you said - you need to prioritize the glycogen for the weight training to keep...

    Honestly this has to be one of the most solid pressing/chest sessions I’ve ever seen you execute - this program today is way better than the RP stuff IMO. At least for a home gym guy wanting to get stronger too. And the accessories matter too, so getting those in is part of the overall growth...

    Building Back Up

    3 weeks to cut one kilo! 199.9 here we come! Sucks to feel sick, but makes it easy to trim some extra carbs/cals when you know you’re just going to rest anyway. Feel better man; I know you’ve got this.

    We always give my son a piece of candy or two right before he does things like gymnastics or swimming, etc. This gives him an opportunity to have the holiday candy he acquires in a setting where he will burn it right up, it creates a positive association with physical effort & reward, and it...

    It really depends. How much you take matters, understanding how to leverage it for your goals, and individual response are all huge factors. The ATWRs between tested and untested in powerlifting are typically within 8% or so - and a few weightclasses actually have higher records from tested...

    Bro Cannoli?? You lucky SOB. The zero-sugar flavors here suck by comparison. Vanilla, Hazelnut, and Birtbday Cake. All 3 of the ones you found sound wayyyy better to be; I’d be slamming cannoli daily for sure. ^Boy, that is a first world complaint if I ever heard one btw 🤣

    Yeah I know things have probably only been healthy really lipid wise for 4 weeks, compared to probably 4 months trashed prior, and I’m pushing things right back towards the red. BUT it’s only a 6-week run, I have a great profile for head start, and will fix it fast. Probably 1-2 months of bad...

    For the first & probably last time in my life, I signed up for TWO meets today! PLU Nationals end of April 24/25th in the 242lb class, and a nearly full meet in Indy in just 6 weeks from tomorrow on December 13th as a 198. I am going for it, boys. There’s basically no meets happening in...

    Bloodwork came back: Dropped my LDL from 212 to 64. 70% in just 6 weeks. Total cholesterol went from 284 to 127. So ApoB can’t be more than 63 if LDL is 64, which means that dropped from 167 to 63 - over 100 points. Sat fats are kept around 20g per day and all dietary fat intake 6 days per...

    Thanks gang! Haven’t really gotten stronger, but definitely more competitive as I’ve held a lot of strength. Definitely things like ease of breathing when reclined/in bed, stairs and realistically even walking do feel easier. Not that they were hard before, but everything is more...

    I measured my waist at the navel this morning, around the widest part of the love handle/oblique:down to 37.5-38”. It was ~43.5-44” when I was in the 250s in February. So I’ve lost about half a foot on my waist this year. My biceps still taped at 17.5” flexed cold, thighs are 25.5” at peak quad...

    SARMs Cycle has issues?

    Are you planning to be in a surplus and gain weight to drive the new strength? If so, LGD is the better anabolic, but it doesn’t really have the neurological effect on strength the way most oral steroids do, so if you don’t get bigger on it you probably won’t get much stronger from it. It’s more...
