Heyyyy you beautiful fucks!
I wanted to pop in and post a brief update for you guys...
Firstly, is there anything you guys would like me to add to this log to make it more interesting? I want to be as detailed and informative as possible, as well as give the most honest firsthand experiences I can... Let me know if there's other info you guys would like me to post about throughout this journey.
Anywho, a few tweaks have been made in the diet... I've lowered the carbs a BIT as insulin usage is now JUST being used on leg day and arm day... Soon, it'll be no insulin until about September-ish. You can still "cut" with insulin, but you guys need to remember taking a break from everything, especially insulin, is a MUST. 15iu Humalog doesn't have the same PUNCH it did a few weeks back, so that's a good sign to me it's time to give it a rest. I'd never recommend using insulin for more than 4 weeks anyway, and always take a day or two off a week with it. Sensitivity is key to both results, and your health.
Cardio will be thrown in 2x or so a week right now, most likely post lift on my "pump" days... This new Onslaught program has really been fun! The workouts seem a bit shorter than I'm used to, but they're also very intense... I like it.
Weight is chilling around 230-233lbs, abs are still visible but no real obvious vascularity on them except at the very bottom. Hoping this changes soon with the diet and cardio adjustments.
I am a big believer in changing diet, then training and lastly drugs to suit your needs. A lot of folks hop on T3, ECA, clen etc. before increasing cardio or lowering carbs/macros... Why? Because it's "easier" but it's really not an effective way of learning or doing things. This, I believe, is why a lot of people see a "rebound" from T3 etc... Not because of the suppression on the thyroid, but because diet and training changes weren't made, just the metabolism was sped up as a crutch... Drop the crutch, weight comes on fast! *Broscience*
I really am going to miss growing for a bit, I do struggle with losing size and strength on a cut. I'm used to wanting to be bigger, so any weight drop is a bit of a mental hurdle for me, even emotional in a way.
By the way, these 5% nutrition products (mostly Real Food and the crystallized egg whites) are awesome... Still highly recommend them, as painful as that might be...
