Luki Offseason - blow up arms at 3" with SYNTHEROL(road do 320lbs)

[JJT]

@luki7788 when it comes to the bulk of your training, do you prefer free weights or machines? Ideally I realise we want both but how do you decide whats better how you feel vs. what always been done? For eg, I "feel" a Chest Support T-bar more but ancedotally the biggest backs were built on heavy BB Rows... your thoughts?

I will answer this way - in my example, when I was doing, for example, deadlifts regularly in every training for years with a load of 300-340 kg for repetitions and I rowed with a barbell weighing 220-240 kg, or pull-ups with an additional 20-40 kg at the waist, my back was great . As I started training a little lighter, focusing more on machines and feeling muscles, my back got a lot worse. The same with the chest, for example, when I pressed a barbell weighing 180-200 kg for 5-12 repetitions and flyes with 50-60 kg dumbbells in one hand, I had the best chest. As I switched more to cables and machines it got worse.

So I think free weights will always be better than a machine when it comes to gaining muscle. If we are already very advanced, we have some injuries, etc., then the machines become the only option for a fairly normal training, but not in the situation where we have no problems.
Currently, I have returned to training myself with the advantage of free weights and I am going to get to my best lifts or even try to improve them because I am only 32 years old, which is actually the age at which we reach the peak when it comes to bodybuilding

Than you so much @luki7788, your posts are always a goldmine of real-world bodybuilding information. I like how you never hold back to speak your mind and share experineces rather than go with the masses. Very valuable to someone like myself who is fairly young and new to bodybuilding. I come from a generation where the issue is there is too much information and overthinking is prevelant.

Exactly - too much information also becomes a problem at some point. What to do? stick to the basics. Eat properly, train hard with the use of basic exercises, do not use ten drug combinations, but also focus on the basics. You cannot go wrong following the basic path.

a small update - currently fasting weight 280 pounds or +23 pounds in 6 weeks, I am waiting for the results of blood tests to finally check the level of estradiol and instead of npp I will change to trenbolone

GOGO WITH TREN! Please post your condition in 4+weeks! Tren should make you look friakier!

How do you decide to change AAS? is that a fixed amount of time or you go by mirro? When you switch do you also change calories?

I already have them, my estradiol is exactly the same as 77 weeks ago - for me it's the perfect result I want at this point

I change npp to trenbolone because I want to push the maximum force and the tren is perfect for this.
And no, I do not completely change my diet, I do one change and wait for the effect it will bring. But with Trenbolone, I think the weight will continue to increase without adding any calories because it makes the body use macronutrients better.

Thank you, I always try to be honest but at the same time I do not recommend anyone to follow what I am doing because my resistance to side effects is very high

What a curiosity, because many people wrote that I am dry for the offseason. This is my normal offseason body fat, I don't actually get any more just a little more fluid and water. Is it genetics? I think partly yes, but more work and lifestyle. I do not make any cheat meals all year, 5-6 times a week I do 30 minutes of cardio a day and I take care of insulin sensitivity as much as I can, I think the main factors.

What you do for insulin sensitivity?
Cardio...
Berberine...
Cromium Picolinate...
what else?

For a month was thinking to change my schedule workouts to Push Pull Rest Legs Rest, but compared to now i will end up with 1 less total workout weekly....

Luki do you plan to use more syntherol in your off season?

 

[Sixfoottwo]

Gonna be following this

 

[luki7788]

Luki do you plan to use more syntherol in your off season?

I use it all the time but I am doing the subclinical phase now - i.e. biceps and triceps 1x a week, 3ml in each head
In about 2 weeks, I'm going to enter the bigger protocol again. This time, 3 times a week, 3 ml in each head of biceps and triceps.

I would never have thought that people outside my country would want to hear what I was saying. I am very surprised but at the same time I am very happy about it. I will think about translating all podcasts for youtube and truebodybuilding. Of course, if anyone is interested in registering on the site, I also invite people from other countries. I will answer anyone in English. I will also think about making an English version of the website.
