I’m noticing the same thing. I just dropped EQ because my RBC was running wild, I just don’t have the genetics for it. I’m now on Test/Tren only and throwing more Letro helped a little bit but I’m far less vascular now with noticeable water under the skin. What I did notice is that my strength has shot through the roof, I’m making strength gains like never before.
I've had testosterone up to 3 grams and I didn't get more from that than I got from 2.5. I might try pushing it to 4-5 in the second half of this year.
On training days I do because all my meals have around 150 grams of carbs or more. On off days I typically don't use insulin, just metformin.
I've always been interested in comments like this. What IS 4500 enough for? Enough to cut? An absolute calorie maintenance. What do you think personally?
Not trying to answer for Jax because I see people say this a LOT. Nobody is going anywhere on 4000 cals a day in this sport. You can look good with a lifeguard build. Lean and muscular but not the size that many are (or were) chasing after. I think more like 8000 cals or more, 4g’s gear or more, 20-30ius GH/day, slin, met, and berb as required (glucose clearing agents).
Agreed. My problem is that I sometimes have a hard time trying to shovel in the calories. I know I need to eat but it's definitely not as easy as some people think.
I don’t know anyone who hasn’t had this happen and all of us thought that it wouldn’t happen “to me”
I'm 38 turning 39 next month and all I hear is guys over 40 saying once they hit 40...damn 40 must be the magic number of decline lol
Damn I guess I got 6 more years of no negative sides lol
I guess you did not truly understand what Phil Hernon was saying when he said "EAT WHEN HUNGRY"
Well imo it’s after 40 I’m still pretty much me say 90% but drugs have more noticeable sides. Training is as good as ever but sleep and recovery require more attention and for me it was 43 not 40. That said yea 40 seems to be a magic number and not just in our sphere, culturally I’d say 40 is the most recognized birthday and the whole thing is celebrated with joke funerals and the over the hill mantra so yea there is something to let’s say “your 40s” not being a smart ass but you’ll see bro whether it’s 40 or 45 things catch up
We talked about it a lot. Yeah, I’m pretty sure I did. But then again I learned much of what I know today because of Phil and John and the now scarce old promuscle crew.
Can I ask what the correct understanding of that is? Is it, to not force feed? If you’re not hungry, figure out why your’re not hungry and fix it?
That's exactly my issue, on 4,5k i can't go anywhere on this sport.
brother im with you, i have been eating like 1.5k to 2k if im lucky calories ED for the last 7-8 years MAX, i can get ripped and shape but filling out is hard, i haven't been able to break like 205-210 lbs. In my 20s it was easy to get up to 230 while bulking. I ate a grip of junk food back then and good food also. Now i do not have appetite. im force feeding spaghetti rn. amino acids have been a big help, protein shakes, most of my intake is all liquid. liquid egg whites , insulin....small amounts of gear
4500kcal you don't gain weight and your bf doesn't change either?
No BF ofc goes up but very marginally.
bro split to low volume may be just too little volume that is the reason for the lack of progress - everyone always thinks that they train hard and take it as the last possibility and the reason for the lack of progress and in 90% of cases it is exactly the opposite - people train too poorlyNo BF ofc goes up but very marginally.
I stopped doing cardio and don't use any stims, just 100mcg T4 with my 10iu HGH.
I train brosplit 5 days a week low volume high intensity. Last blood panels were fine, had no signs of overtraining.
Usually when I am stressed hunger goes to zero. So maybe it's just a bit of that, will have more sex and less training
