Long Off-Season to Classic D Class Weight Cap

[Ateam2023]

Hit 220kg/485lb SLDL today, for reps which is the weight I wanted to get this to. However when coach reviewed it, he found I need to make some changes. My legs are too stiff/straight for the stiff leg, the last reps I do engage my back a bit and the weight is in torn hamstring territory so I need to rework this movement. I will be going back down to 4 plates per side and really making big pauses, and just slightly less knee bend than RDL so I don’t blow my leg out.
I will also be doing smaller intervals in my ramp, so I can really work on technique up the weights.

No, just the normal lasso type since I also use them on machines

Higher average weight this week than before
Kept around 106.5kg 235lbs

Had a cheat meal for Christmas.
Nothing crazy. Was split between 4 adults and toddler
For protein not pictured for the meal was a pigeon, and Goose:


Front back side

So plan is updated. Been holding 105-106.5kg steadily still, so small changes were made.

Adding another 25mg ment to stack (150mg per week)
Added carbs on high day and training day.

Will continue this push for 3-4 weeks, and then do a mini cut. The purpose is “to give the digestive system a break from the huge amounts of food”. Then after 2 weeks of mini cut I will continue to grow.

Carbs are 700-920g per gym days. So it’s higher than before but actually I feel really good about my digestion and it’s easy to eat everything now. So if I give my digestive system a break I am certain I will be able to push more food without any trouble and grow with less physical/psychological stress. Not having to force feed to get to my heaviest weight is really nice, and a new experience. Every other time I’ve bulked I have had to force feed, but now growing feels natural.


I will be traveling to America when I do my mini cut, so that will be good to have to spend less time eating/cooking (I have to cook better food when I eat large quantities so it is palatable) and more quality time with family.

After first pin with extra .25mg ment I’m up to 108.3kg/239

.5kg/1lb away from my all time heaviest but much leaner and in first phase of bulk, Condition is not much worse,

 

[Slowww]

so it’s been 13 weeks off season.

I’ve gained 16.1kg/35lbs

Now at all time heaviest and holding it easily, and no problem with food. Have not started force feeding at all, and actually I don’t expect I will need to force feed for a long time especially since I will do a mini cut to clean up the physique a bit.

Fasted morning: 109.1kg/ 240.5 lbs
During day: 112.2kg/245lbs

Training is going well. Feel like I respond well to the addition of ment. I have less body fat than last time I used 50mg, and have no gyno problems this time even though the gear is exactly the same. Very happy about this
Blood glucose is still fine.
Of course no problem with blood pressure.

good physique ; so now you use Test + EQ + little ment?

Thanks!

Yes, those are my bread and butter for AAS when I want to gain weight. If I start to have problems with aromatization, I will only use test & EQ.

Other hormones include: t4, hgh (5iu), insulin (humalog and/or lantus depending on carb intake), and hcg (for fertility maintenance during long term AAS use)

For aromatization I take a little exemastane,
