My Journey so far -

Progress from January to July
View attachment 187252
The progress that I made from January to July, relied on modern day push, pull, lower, upper type split with the intention of going to muscular failure on the last set of any given exercise. My workouts, weights, sets & reps were recorded every session & so where my calories & macros. I did no cardio whatsoever during this time period.

Frustrated with my progress, I set myself a challenge by halthing the amount of Testosterone I was using each week, doing away with Insulin & microdosed tren & running with Test, Mast P, Primo & Hgh only.
I stopped recording all of my workouts, weights, reps, sets, ditched my phone & went into every session full steam ahead, set after set, superset after superset, drop sets, fst-7's, Triple Drop Sets, Giant sets, High reps 10-12 with most sets including warm-up sets taken to the point of momentary muscular failure. I stopped counting calories & macros & relied solely on my hunger ques, sleep patterns etc were all instinctive.
My principal now relied upon Training to failure with continuous mechanical tension on the working muscles, eyeing off enough protein at each meal, metabolic accumulation (aka the pump) & progressive overload on each & every single workout, be that more weight, reps, greater intensity, less rest between sets & other progressive overload variations

By July I was looking pretty Jacked!
Weighing in now at 107kg on half the amount of gear & purely instinctive training & eating. I was training each bodpart once per week & superseting my Arms & Forearms.

January to July from the back.
Some obstacles that I faced during this time where past injuries that have plagued me since I first tore a pec at 19 years of age,
Some injuries that followed where,
Another torn pec, a torn tricep, both of my patella tendons torn, both of my biceps torn, both of my lat muscles torn & both of my shoulders, my rotator cuffs torn. It's that injury plus my Tricep that wont allow me to fully extend my right arm & both of my arms have limited overhead range of motion.
I also have boughts with Kidney disease which I have maintained at a stable but low level of egfr 29 measured by Cystatin C for over 7 years now. The hardest part of all of this is the kidney disease which leaves me weak, feeling fatigued all of the time, combined with insomnia, severe loss of appetite, brain fog, thought confusion, forgetfulness & to compound this, I also have Adhd & Bipolar, Anxiety & Depression. Ontop of all of this my level of Kidney disease causes significant protein loss.

Appart from overall mass, my physique goals are to add more Delts, Triceps & Calves while working on keeping my waist small.
