Solid numbers. 260 x5 is pretty good for the last set.

PS if you don't put lbs you can let people assume you did 260 kg x 5 :)

Well, I used to be able to do that for real guess I could let them assume. 😜
Dang that's a lot! My squat is not my best lift so I've never come close to 260 kg :(

I was joking but I have done 455 lbs for 7 and that after doing 405 X 10. That before the 9 broken bones in the wreck and almost 14 years ago. Never tried a max then wish I had.

The IML 1-andro is pretty good for lean gains, striations and vascularity. The lighting here doesn't catch the striations very well but you can see the veins a little better.
This was more or less old an old POF bodybuilding workout. Nice pump!

That's pretty good imo. If I got 385 for one now I'd be happy. I've got the short arms and legs for the bench and squats. I bet your deads are good.

My deadlift use to be fairly good. However, I've hurt my lower back quit a few times and now the risk vs reward of deadlifts are no longer beneficial in my opinion so I don't do heavy deadlifts anymore at all :( I still do them with lighter weight. Typically when i'm doing shruggs i'll just do deadlifts with the weight that I do shruggs with.

Yeah I had to drop the heavy deads also due to hip injuries. I do the SLDs for the hamstring stretch movemen but they're not that heavy. Doing them with Shrugs is a good idea. I was doing Shrugs on the Cybex bench after benching.

Nice! I always like pairing shruggs with another exercise just due to shruggs not being to exhausting or taxing and easy to stick in with something else that you're doing.

Instead of 235 X 5 X 5 I did 245 and got it. Next Monday I'll pyramid sets again and try to get 315 X 1 at the end. Should be able this time. The IML 1-andro works well for strength at this moderate dose. No lethargy either.

Nice! Three plates is the goal for most. It's definitely the sticking point for a lot of folks.

I live on a hill with a bunch of stairs to climb just to get to the front door. That will be rough today!
Maybe that's why you can do so much volume on squat cause you have the endurance from your daily stair climb :)

I had an idea that the 1-andro might work well like for strength when I asked to do this log. It seems to be working well.

The crazy androgenicity some say 1-andro has isn't true. It's actually the same as regular test and doesn't aromatize so there's no estrogen issues.

Using it exactly as the directions on the bottle say seems to whip the lethargy thing.
Putting it in a stack would be gold. This isn't a review yet but I do like the IML 1-andro.
Anyway, I did an hour on hour on my recombinant bike yesterday and had a good delt workout today.

When I said 1-andro has the same androgenicity as test, I was referring to 1-testosterone which is the hormone it converts into.
1-testosterone is about twice as anabolic however and doesn't aromatize.


I put deads back in to better work my core. I have to do them off the rack because of my past injuries. Kept them light and will try to take them lower and heavier later.


Got really nice pumps on the curls. The Reverse grip pulldowns gives a nice stretch on the bis and contraction on the lats at the same time.

Ironmaglabs Super 1-Andro review.

Should say at the start that absortion and the way this stuff dries quickly is amazing.
Put it on and the clothes in a few minutes.

I started this at 180 and currently weigh 188. I'm very lean and hard however and was trying to stay relatively close to 181. Yeah I'm still toying with that oldman bench record even though I had a torn pec awhile back

The reason I didn't mess with 1-andro much before was because I got a bit of lethargy from it. The strength gains were good and it promotes a lean hard look tho.
When I was doing the Leaf AF I noticed no lethargy at 50 mgs. That was what made me ask to do this.

I started the 1-andro doing both pumps at once and did notice a bit of lethargy. It wasn't bad but I still changed it to 1 pump in the am and one in the pm. No lethargy and strength started going up. The hardness and gains are quite good at this moderate dose. I was only doing TRT and a little pregnenolone/DHEA along with it.

I give this product a big thumbs up. It would be a great choice for using in a stack with 4-andro for a gainer or a cut. If I wouldn't buy it myself, I wouldn't brag on it. I will probably do another run with this.

Our discussions have been a blessing to me. Using the 5 X 5 for maintaining strength and making gains is gold. Still debating logging my dermacrine/Ursa major run(sort of a pct but I'll keep trt in). If I log it, please jump in.
