I think that is the best way, and why I didn't mention anything sooner than the fall. However with your love of competition I didn't think you would want to wait too long. have you considered just entering the 242 class at whatever healthy weight you show up at rather than pushing weight for better leverages, or just going with a quick period of overfeeding to fill out more?
What types of doses are you considering with your oils? I am contemplating another Oil based cycle and am curious what you have in mind for a moderate to mild cycle.
Makes sense to me! If you run it longer, IE 4-8 months or whatever will you add in something like proviron to limit SHBG?
I was actually entertaining idea of doing 4 training days in a row to get my sessions in then doing another 2-4 day fast. Although after smacking 208.4 in the mouth this morning weight loss is moving pretty good. The autophagy is something that makes it sound attractive.
Getting in some nice workouts with good volume….I feel you on that when you hit that last set of an exercise and it feels easy, and you just want to add more weight and get one more set. Back when I was younger I burned myself out quite a few times with that one more set mentality. Like you’ve said before, best to leave a little in the tank and avoid injury, and increase and progress further next time. You just learned that way younger than I did. Truthfully when I would see your post when I first got really active on here I thought you were older with the knowledge and insight I would see you share. It’s actually refreshing seeing young guys that work hard and smart and that doesn’t think the world owes them. You earn your stripes with hard work.

Wouldn't it be awesome if you could actually put 5lbs on the bar every week for a year!!!
You going to the end of the weekend again? Knocking these out of the park!!
Now I'm going to have to find a picture of a motor I splint in half tears ago !!Oh you can take the right drugs to do it - the problem isn’t making the horsepower; it’s keeping the motor & driveline from breaking in the process!
Well, I just ordered 54 protein bars on my Amazon subscription next month because “they were very good deals”, so you know the fast is responsible for that
Wife signed up for a contest to attempt to re-break the under 64kg/140lb class circus dumbbell world record mid-August, so diet just started for her. She has been sitting comfy at 161lbs on test prop at 2mg 3x/wk. No other PEDs for the moment, just dropping out some junk food initially, and we’ll go from there.I think she’s just looking forward to bikini season!
Man, I hope she’s able to get the record. That’s really cool.Well, I just ordered 54 protein bars on my Amazon subscription next month because “they were very good deals”, so you know the fast is responsible for that

I look forward to bikini season every year.
my experience is severely limited compared to Hyde and Kleen but I was telling my wife so far in my experience, the first 12-24hrs is the hardest as you're breaking routine, maybe dealing with some hunger hormone pains, etc. But once you're at that 24hr point and decided to skip a full day of meals.. for me it was more like "I've come too far to sacrifice what I've done now" and the next day was far easier.
I hope you take a lot of videos to share with us
!
It’s truly awesome both of you compete in strength competition. It makes it so much easier to understand the preparation, diet, and training it takes to compete at a high level, and besides that it’s just fun. It would be cool if she could win or place in a Strong Woman event and then break a record two weeks later.
No doubt, my longest is just under 100 hours and that 4rth day was rough on me!!!!It’s truly awesome both of you compete in strength competition.

Man, 85 hours on your fast, impressive…..makes me hungry just thinking about it.
Yeah, that’s at level where you really start getting all that clarity and it’s almost a spiritual experience.
IDK if you're joking or not but last night I was telling my wife I started feeling this way after 48hrs!! It was honestly a great experience lol
Oh no, it’s real, definitely.
In the past I had only done maybe 1 day fasts for spiritual purposes in my 20s. If I could go back in time I'd tell everyone if you're going to fast for spiritual purposes start with 48hrs. far more eye opening experience.
It's Joe Rogan... everyone should try DMT at least once! LOL, No I have never tried it.
Nice! I think part of the reason I hit a wall on my 4 day fast was I wasn't giving myself quite enough sodium and just got dehydrated. Having some salt throughout the day really helps. I read that a lot of times when dehydrated you will feel hungry because the body is telling you that you need salt. That a hit of sodium can help. I have definitely noticed that recently during some of my fasts. I get hungry, have a little salt and then the hunger fades. I have been in the 2500-3500 range recently.
