Hello AM. New to the forums and figured my first post should provide some background. 39 year old dude who’s been on a weight lifting break for a couple years following several knee surgeries (I had a lot of fun in the Army, but it did cause some issues). The first couple surgeries didn’t keep me out of the gym, I’d actually go in with crutches and make it happen. The next three got to me though. Missed the last three years or so and of course, gained fat and lost muscle. I knew I missed it, hell it was my favorite thing to do, but couldn’t snap out of it for some reason.
Anyway, I started dieting and went with one called Balanced Habits. It’s more of a marathon diet, won’t strip off fat quickly, but definitely works for me. I was kinda shooting from the hip with what I knew about the diet and ended up dropping around 15 pounds or so in three months. Not too shabby, but I wasn’t doing the diet correctly. I decided to sign up for a 6 month diet program at the gym, which included the correct diet layout for me, and came with body scans using Styku. The scans are very nice to have in conjunction with the scale. The scanner rotates while imaging your body, and provides accurate measurements of major body parts.
Since running the diet correctly, I've lost another 13 pounds, then gained a pound of lean mass last week.
For anyone interested, I’m planning to log several supplement runs in this thread and hope to keep updating.
Stats: 39 years old, 6 ft 1 in tall, currently weigh 206.
Current supplements running that I’ll log:
True Shred - (stopped a week from finishing due to Androvar, knees hated both at the same time)
Androvar - (on third day)
Dermacrine - (started today)
Brite - (running for about three weeks, have three more bottles and no plans to cut it out)
Also taking “normal” supplements and cycle support supplements. Have proper PCT on hand. Have experience with PH/DS and pinned test, but not going hardcore anytime soon. Oh, and my username does not reflect my actual feelings toward AAS . They’re great if you’re properly educated, and ready. I personally am not ready. Few years ago yes, not now.
Thanks for reading, and I’ll post some of the scanner pics at some point.
