Interesting mix up. Does your new program implement more machine work? Also how’s how’s the tbol treating you?

It does use machine work for sure. Different exercises and variations honestly a lot of the program so far has been free weights which I enjoy.

TBol is one of my favorite orals. It’s working out well so far definitely have some increased vascularity and strength is up a bit as well. Too soon for anything else to really be kicking in. Plus I feel like most of my changes with TBol are “dry” and may be minimal but they stick with me. Pumps are getting pretty nasty now as well.
 
B340C11E-5CCB-4966-AC68-7D7893A3CEE9.jpeg So what I’ve decided to do is take a weekly photo in the same shot. That way at the end of this blast I’ll have a weekly progression photo. Yesterday ended week 2 and this is the same shot taken in week one. If I forget guys stay on my ass. Every Saturday or Sunday is photo day.

All I can really tell from a weeks difference is a slight better fullness, not as lean in the midsection as last week (still holding onnthough) don’t plan to let myself get too out of control. & lastly a bit more vascular. Can see veins popping through in both biceps a bit more and it’s a lot more noticeable during workouts as well. I would have to attribute all of this to TBol as everything else is long esters and hasn’t yet begun to kick in.

The second leg day these last 3 weeks have been some of the fucking hardest leg workouts I think I’ve done to date. The rep ranges and sequences of them is just ridiculous. It really brings your ego into check I’ll say that much when you think twice about how many plates you can really use halfway through one of these workouts.
 
I’m seriously thinking about running Gauntlet in a couple months after this stint with my trainer. Looks awesome!
You’d definitely enjoy the intensity. I’m serious the first leg workout of the week is glute and ham focused which is nice. But, the second ones holy shit man idk. Like I said they have seriously brought some pain. Funny thing is that this is an upper body focused program hitting back/chest/shoulders 3x per week yet my lower body is completely trashed.

That’s awesome! Mainly I’m intrigued by the frequency. As you know right now I’m doing low frequency but insane intensity. Quads start with 3x36 rep drop sets, then leg press where the final set is a 60 rep drop set. Then squats and lunges haha. I am gaining well, 208 now up from 194, with body fat I’m thinking around 14%, my trainer thinks around 12%. But I still prefer less intensity and more frequency.

Keep grinding my brother, you’re killing it and making me excited to run this program.

What up @DrankSlangin? Those drop sets sound nasty, the burn beyond the burn!!
How’s your blast treating you?

Great my man thank you for asking! On week 9 of heavy test and npp, will switch to tren at week 13 if bloods check out. Fighting some injuries here and there but I don’t need to tell you about that!

These drop sets are beyond ridiculous and can only be done with a trainer or partner who will push hard on failure reps.

Solid workout to end week 3. Starting to see a bit kore vascularity and more muscle fullness. Strength is also up a bit. Feel like I’m starting to get tendinitis in my left elbow/forearm from the volume so. May need to put some extra rest in here somewhere in the near future if it doesn’t get better.
