I am going to be 43 YO in a few weeks. In High school I was on the powerlifting team! Enjoyed the hell out of it and was very strong. Tried some Dbol once from some of the varsity football players, but felt nothing, pretty sure it was bunk or a date rape drug. I don't remember, but my ass did hurt for a few days...JK....Then life happened.
Married..divorced...married...divorced...married...are you still counting??? But I got fat. Really fat. At my highest weight I was 440lbs. About 3 years ago I got weight loss surgery called a vertical sleeve. They take out like 80% of your stomach and leave a banana size shape. I quickly lost weight. I went down 140lbs quickly in one year. lots of cardio and machine weights etc. Second year I lost 25 lbs. I had never changed anything from my diet to cardio/machine weights. Pretty consistent. My Dr. said our bodies have a set point where it comes easy and then very hard. Today I am sitting about 287. Yes still fat, Tubby, chubs. But consistent. But I have kept the weight off and never went back to old habits. But I am at a disadvantage because my stomach is small. So I can only consume 3-4 oz of pure protein at one time. So I eat more frequent or use protein shakes to make up the difference...
Cancer Sucks....
This is two months now post op. When they originally did it, it was the size of a dime. They had to go back in and get more out which was round as a quarter and three quarters deep! I had an aggressive melanoma skin cancer. They tested my sample and it shows I am clear but i have to go back in a few months and get tested again. But they assure me its good to go. Your favorite phrase!
The Wake Up!
When your Dr. tells you if they hadn't caught it when they did....well you know...bad things happen. I had started working out with a trainer in the spring 2016 to learn proper lifting habbits as I had back surgery 8 years ago on a disk. I wanted to learn how to lift right without fucking up on my form. But I still was not all that serious. I stuck with the trainer through August and about that time he suggested I get my testosterone checked because of my low libido, energy etc. I did and it came back as 211. Very low. I got on TRT in September. Then BOOM! Shit got real...Life's curve ball. I joined another gym as my trainer encouraged me too and our time ended
One night at 2:00am my arm was fucking throbbing from having the crater removed and On NetFlix I came across the movie Generation Iron. I don't know why I watched it. Or how it even came up. But it sucked me in. I needed a goal. So I said Fuck it! I started my mad research terror of 2-3 hours a day of pure research. I found this forum, and others. Started reading all about the profiles, sides, different cycles etc. Amazing info here. Started looking into sources, asking some dumb questions, watching videos, and planning. Planning my macros, my new lifting program etc. I then placed a call to a very prominent TRT doc and explained my goals. Best money I spent as he explained sides etc. Had blood tests done and we went over them. My current TRT doc is an idiot and is in it for the money but doesn't know shit about drugs.
The Plan I want to compete in the Masters Level NPC Amateur closer to 50.
I knew after talking to the doc I needed everything up front before I started. Was already on TRT and knew I was on a marathon not a sprint. No Bostin Loyd cycle for me. I have patience. My biggest hurdle is the diet. Why? Because I can't consume a lot at one sitting. So I knew I will never be able to eat 5-6K calories a day and accepted the fact of 3-4K on my lifting days. 2-3K on my off days. It is what it is.
Macros
On my lifitng days I get in 250-275 grams of protein and 300-325 grams of carbs - 100-110grams of fats from almonds and oils. I eat every 2-3 hours starting at 6:00am. I drink at least a gallon of water with BCAA's a day. Lots of chicken, red meat, rice, pasta etc. Pre-workout meal, post workout shake and dextrose immediately after. I lift at night. Always have, weird that way.
The Supplements
Seems like I am an 80yo taking all these dam pills! Every morning and night.
LIV52 AM/PM
Cycle Assist AM/PM, I also take extra Hawthorn Berry
DIM
MIC CAPS
Mega 3
Vitamin D & E
Bayer Asprin
12.5mg daily of Cialis
Since I have started the above my blood pressure has gone down!
The Sharp Shit!
Why wife rolls her eyes and reminds me to always cap my needles! But you never want to run out.
The Juice!
300MG of TEST.
300MG on NPP
600MG of Primo
I split the dose's up over the week. I started in September on 200MG of TRT and 450MG Primo. I only started the additional Primo and NPP last week for a 10 week cycle of blast. I will then cruise on 200MG of TEST and my PEPS.
