Yeah I don’t think there is a argument to be made for any side. Training programs are so individual that they all work for somebody. But yes I feel I’m progressing, adding about 5-10 pounds per exercise per week and feel fully recovered with in 36 hours of a hard workout. Except for legs, takes...
No on TRT right now at 280mg/wk and still run 30mg var sublingual as a pre workout, so about 3-4 days a week. Last daily dose of Var, deca, and high dose test was July 20.
Ever heard the phrase “Everything’s bigger in Texas”? Well that holds true for our food as well. The pork loins are about 1.5” thick and maybe a hand and a half surface area. Cook it in the air fryer at 400° for 26 mins. Absolutely perfect, substitute the mash for a nice avocado spread and it is...
Forgot to do my log yesterday but this was my workout.

Probably the problem but ever since I broke my back 5 years ago if there is even the slightest pain in the lumbar, I just skip that activity. Sometimes if I know it’s due to too much load I’ll drop the weight 25-50% but this one felt like a posture problem arching my back so I skipped.
Pretty damn good workout for first in 10 days. Will have three more training days before down for 2 week min for the surgery on my ass. Since my last day of cycle I am down from 212.3 to 199.3 but haven’t seemed to lose any strength yet. Actually increased on a few today.
Diet is going pretty good, staying on point with 250-350g protein per day carbs are ranging from 50-150 per day (though I’m considering doing some carb cycling with 1-2 days a week at 500g+) and fats are staying around 125g per day. Since coming off cycle on July 20th I’ve lost around 7 pounds...
First procedure went real good today but he wants at least 72 hours before I can lift and have the 2nd half of this surgery on Thursday. That puts me at having maybe 3-4 good heavy days before I have the surgery next Thursday then I’ll be down for about 2 weeks with nothing heavy.
Yeah I’ll probably down to cardio and super light weight for about 3 weeks total. The spinal procedures they are just doing a RFA, burning off about 8 nerves on my lumbar spine, typically up and running about 2-3 days after those. The surgery is pretty simple, just cutting some odd growth off...
Sorry it’s been so long for an update. Super busy week getting ready for 2 spinal procedures next week and an actual surgery on my bum the week after. Didn’t do a good log this week but did log my workouts here they are.

Super busy day today. I had no way to quantify my diet as it was an eating out day. Got in a nice fasted leg workout this morning though.
Thanks to everyone who offered advice on TRT dosage. Now how long should I wait before running another cycle? I was thinking 8-10 weeks. All my...
Also reposting this from a couple logs ago hoping to get a little feedback.
Awesome last day of cycle. Will be dropping back down to TRT test only starting tomorrow. Right now my doc has me dosed at 280mg/wk. Does that sound like too much? Was thinking of dropping it down to like 175mg/wk. Also...
