Daily Log to 2019 Show Season

The “contrary to popular belief and some other idiots on this forum you don’t have to be killing your self to bodybuild” post.

Changing some food sources for the lipids. Super happy to see CRP, Cortisol, insulin looking good. PSA perfect. Let’s go.

WOW!
Those test levels are nothing like what ppl speak about.

Thanks for sharing

Lol. Don’t take tht for anything. That’s me skipping a pin for the test while on TRT. But I cruise at 150mg which puts me around 700-800.

On cycle I typically see ~3200 total T on 750

 

[Isrrike]

Be careful you’re gonna make a lot of people very mad for not running 10 grams to look like you do

 

[Frozen]

Great read, skimmed through a lot. Your killing it Mac, congrats on going pro aswell!

 

[Type-IIx]

I noticed @Mac11wildcat hasn't been around Meso for a month now. Hope you do come back, Mac11!

Hey could well been busy lately and hopefully he'll post an update soon enough.

Guys, pros have a lot to consider with marketing and such, contracts. Sponsors who will support a decent lifestyle to full-time bodybuild don't really appreciate truthful posts about what it takes to become a pro.

I hope he comes back, but if he does not, I understand, and we should be thankful for this thread he left us and the other contributions to this forum as well.

Anybody who wants to compete and win a competition has a pretty damn good road map just reading this thread from page 1.

True, everyone needs what a beautiful story about the miracle, and not about the fact that this is hard work.

Damn, you have put on some serious weight this off season.

 

[Mac11wildcat]

Let’s hear your diet from today and your weekly total mg and compound choice

Compounds: no AAS, just GH and some bpc/tb for some nagging injuries
Dosage: zero, 2iu, 1.5mg/1mg bpc/tb per week

Food:
- 3 whole food meals of 50g protein (steak, eggs), 65g carbs (rice and fruit) fats from protein sources (one tbsp PB last meal)
- 3 50g whey meals with 65g carbs (rice, rice cereal)
- 1 Intra shake with EAAs and carbs (Pom juice)

I’m currently 4-5 weeks into being completely off, a couple days back from 2 weeks of zero training in these photos, making sure I’m healthy and recovered for my next push. Also bringing bodyfat down as we get ready. Bloodwork soon.

My coach asked me to get a Fitbit, so more data:
RHR in the 60s dipping to 50 at night, overnight Sp02 96%, averaging 10k steps a day. Sleep looks better than expected but also completely unreliable measurement method

150mg putting you at 700 - 800 ng/dL is enough to maintain your level of muscle?

You look very cool, huge. We will follow your progress.

 

[Mac11wildcat]

Is there likely some level of loss over an extended period? Yes. Is it measurable and worth worrying about? No.

The recovery and health benefits of coming off and cruising at physiological levels far outweigh keeping a lb or two of muscle that comes back immediately when you start a blast. I also stay eating and training just as intensely even if My weight and poundage on lifts dips a tad.

Edit; theres also genetics to consider. And genetics for bodybuilding go far beyond the ability to build muscle or muscle belly shape. Maintaining muscle, avoiding serious health issues, getting lean, etc are all genetic as well.

Wildcat is back!!!!!!

Welcome back buddy!

 

[may2021]

I promise to not make this thread dumb with unnecessary selfies, but this is a pretty decent comparison of me chasing MW (176.25) vs now. Spent the last few hrs before weigh ins in the suana, zero water, no food. Can post some dry pre-travel shots if you guys are interested. We absolutely blew my carb up and I was watery as fuck on stage.

I'm laughing at how much size you've put on since you posted this photo!
lol
