Accelerated Decrepitude: The Slartibartfast summer mass fest.

[Slartibartfast]

Time for an update. Up to 214 now in the mornings, only 3lb more than the last post of July 13, but I've been counting on around 2lb per month, and I feel like I'm doing well. This is actually the heaviest I've been at this bodyfat, so it's all new material. I'm also lifting more than I ever have in terms of what makes up the ~10 rep range, so the progressive overload continues.

New news is that my wife has announced that we're going on vacation in Feb, so I have about 5 months to get into some kind of beach shape. We'll see how that goes.

I'd like to thank some of you guys for the background DM advice on estogen and AI use etc. I've never run test alone at higher levels and it turns out I need about .5mg adex per day to deal with 700mg test, which is where I'm at now. Got it sorted though. Now my estrogen is at around 60. Things were getting a bit nipply there for a bit...fuck that.

So here I am today, after the upper body workout this morning, and I went in just now to to take a quick leg shot to ensure they're still there. Yeah, I need to put more effort in the legs, I've been basically maintaining.

I'm making some improvements on my arms, they've always been behind, so I stopped doing supplemental arm work on the same day as their main PPL day, so no more curls on pull day and no more triceps on push day. Now I do biceps first on push day and triceps first on pull day. It's having an effect so I'm going to stick with that for the next months or so.

It also clear that I can still up the food more, which I do every week.....

Cheers everyone

Man, shut the hell up

I'm making some improvements on my arms, they've always been behind, so I stopped doing supplemental arm work on the same day as their main PPL day, so no more curls on pull day and no more triceps on push day. Now I do biceps first on push day and triceps first on pull day. It's having an effect so I'm going to stick with that for the next months or so.

This is how it's done, you have to prioritize the body parts you want to bring up.

You must have a dozen flights of stairs in your house to get those veins popping like that just from walking downstairs.

Always impressed with your ability and physique.

Along with @Rhyno's comment, lol. I'm just being an asshole. I say this kind of thing to get reactions from my wife.

"There's some apple pie left.."
"I don't know....I've only got five months to get rid of all this fa......."
"OH SHUT THE HELL UP YESTERDAY I SAW YOU EAT AN ENTIRE CHICKEN AND 8 POP TARTS"

Your wife sounds like mine, especially announcing when my vacations are lol

I'm seeing a pattern here, does my wife follow your two wives on social media ?
I usually start seeing emails from our travel agent or an influx of travel brochures

Mine thinks I’m nuts that I think I’m fat. (Like you just trying to get a reaction), Then pissed because of what I can eat and not get fat.

Thanks man,

I take 20 mg of telmisartan per day, which is half the blood pressure regulation dose. I don't take it for BP as I've never had a problem with that, but there's good evidence that it helps with hematocrit and is helpful for both prevention and mitigation of left ventricular hypertrophy.

My Dr. thought she saw a bit of LVH on an ultrasound, but barely detectable. So, since I routinely have at least slightly elevated hematocrit and the possibility of LVH, I put myself on telmisartan.

My blood pressure otherwise, and previous to the telmisartan, has always been very easy to keep in range with just a reasonable amount of cardio.

I figured I'd explain why I take the BP meds though.

So your doctor prescribed 20 mg of telmisartan per day? Thanks again .

I don't know why but for some reason i want to start chanting "Goldberg..Goldberg..Goldberg" nice work @Slartibartfast

Ok, so I've been off the "blast" of 700 test / 500 Mast since Sept 03, so almost 2 months now of "TRT+" - that being 120 test, 120 mast, 4 iu GH.

I got up to 220 some mornings at the end of the blast, and after two months on a light dose, have settled down into a 216 morning weight, which I'm very happy with. There's no residual wateryness or bloat, so I like to see what I look like after at least 6 weeks of regular low doses - what I consider "my real weight" - not the illusion of water weight while fully on gear. There's always that bit of disappointing delflating that goes on when you come off, I like to think that when you settle down after, this is the stuff that stays.

This is my largest/leanest yet. I'm also my strongest - and the "bulk" is not over. I'm still very lean as far as I'm concerned, so I have changed nothing except drugs. I'll continue to blast away leveraging the food, and maybe a bit of anavar in a month or so. If I get too fat, then we'll do a cut, but honestly, I could go to the beach like this and be just fine with it.

So I'll continue to work my way up to a lean 220 as my goal. Shit, if I could be 220 with abs, I'd feel like I've really nailed it considering where I started. My body dysmorphia is gone at least. lol.

Still working on the arms before any T-Rex comments

A few pics for the record......

 

[strongmann]

You definitely look a lot fuller from previous pics so I definitely think you're on the right track! Nicley done brother! You just adding the var as pre lift or actually cycling it?
As far as you getting fat.. I don't think that's possible! What are you like 10 ish % BF

I like the trt/mast combo for your cruise for your blast though I would switch out mast for primo but that's just me.

The var is just one of those things that I like here and there, and I only use it preworkout at 40 mgs at a time. It seems to have minimal effects on my lipids and hdl when used like that for a couple of months at most, so I use it sparingly and probably just because I happen to have it .

I have enough primo for a pretty big cycle, but I'm hoarding it. The mast just raises the free test and makes me a little bit drier looking, so not too much of an effect there but I l like it.

Just going to use miminal drugs and stay healthy for a few months more..There's a stash of tren and anadrol that I can see myself getting into a month before vacation..

Thanks

You’re a monster dude. Chest stands out mostly very impressive in fullness and vascularity.

I can’t help to get the panel cover sitting on the floor out of my mind, lol.
Is your panel wide open?

Anyhow looking great. I gotta make some bread, it’s gotta be doing something, lol.

Lol. I wondered if anyone would mention it. My woodworking shop is right outside the weightroom in the basement. I'm putting in a couple of 20a circuits in with 12g wiring for the tablesaw, planer and router table. I've fished the wiring and mounted the boxes but I haven't put in the breakers yet. Later this week I should get it done finally.

Considering you only started lifting years ago if I recall correct, are not on 10 plus compounds and are on a reasonable dosage now, your age, looks like you work at home (nothing wrong with this but it does limit some great lifts) - you are in incredible shape.
If I was to guess, you could be natural as you have great genetics to get shredded/vascular/grow.
Impressive sir!
