Notes on Digestion & Food Choices
The majority of my carbohydrate intake continues to come from cereal and bread. I still can’t tolerate rice or any rice-based product without severe digestive issues (bloating, distension, pain, and loose stools), so cereal and bread has become my go-to. It digests seamlessly, fuels training perfectly, and keeps me consistent with intake.

Right now, digestion is in an excellent place. Every single meal sits well, I enjoy eating every part of my plan, and I genuinely look forward to food each day. Having this level of enjoyment and consistency makes adherence effortless and progression that much smoother.

Week 3 Offseason Update
Fasted weight: 122.1kg

Current Reflections​

Things have been tracking absolutely phenomenally. Training feels incredible, recovery is next-level, and I feel strong, explosive, and locked in across all sessions. Diet has been nailed outside of one small slip (half a packet of Pods last week), but otherwise everything has been perfectly on point.

What’s been especially interesting this reverse is seeing how predictable and well-managed my physique is when every single variable is tightly controlled—food, fluid, electrolytes, training—all logged down to the milligram. Compared to the big rebound blowout after my last show, this time health markers are excellent, edema is nonexistent, fluid retention is minimal (super dry this week), and overall I’m genuinely feeling amazing.

---

Key Adjustments & Health Observations​

The biggest difference has been religiously tracking sodium intake. In the past I always pushed sodium high (20g+ added pink salt per day at peak offseason), which left me bloated and messy. This time I’ve restricted sodium heavily while pushing potassium intake up, and the impact has been massive:

• Blood pressure is the best it’s ever been.
• Fluid retention is minimal—even running 8–9iu GH.
• No carpal tunnel or hand pain (previously couldn’t handle even 4iu GH without symptoms).

This change has me optimistic for longevity in bodybuilding. BP was always my biggest concern, and I worried my career as a bodybuilder would be on the shorter side due to this health concern. But managing sodium/potassium balance properly makes me confident I can sustain the push for muscle tissue this offseason while keeping health markers solid and longevity in the sport as a bodybuilder and not just a coach will hopefully be significantly better.

---

Coach Check-In & Next Steps​

Coach was extremely happy with the look shift this week: heavier, bigger, yet leaner, harder, and more vascular. Bloodwork was done Monday, and the markers came back in great shape, especially considering the stress of prep and PED exposure. With that confidence, we made the decision to push back on cycle to capitalise on the post-show growth phase.

---

Nutrition​

• Training days: 285P / 650C / 50F
• Rest days: 285P / 550C / 60F
• Meals: 1 off-plan meal every Saturday night (date with the missus), optional clean off-plan post training day (on a muscle group needing improvement) if needed (haven’t felt the need yet besides yesterday indulged in a couple of sourdough doughnuts post arms and traps).

---

PEDs Protocol​

• Test E: 300mg
• EQ: 1200mg (highest I’ve ever run—pushing EQ high while keeping test lower to drive E2 down and eliminate aromasin; starting at a 1:4 ratio with the plan to titrate up and adjust ratio based on bloodwork)
• GH: 8iu daily (split AM/PM; trialed 9–10iu briefly last week but reverted to 8iu to stay rational, not emotional particularly considering pushing androgen load)
• Insulin: None at present (sensitivity is extremely high, natural hypo the other night post-workout meal; fasting BG 3.5–4.5 mmol/L, never above 7 mmol/L even after 200+ carb meals)

---

Supplementation (relatively unchanged from last update)​

• Retatrutide 1.5mg (split 3x weekly)
• BPC-157 250mcg daily
• 5-Amino-1MQ 150mg (split 3x daily)
• SLU PP332 1g (split 2x daily)
• MOTS-C 10mg (split 3x weekly)
• Telmisartan 80mg daily
• Nebivolol 5mg daily
• Vitamin C 1000mg daily
• Vitamin D3 2000iu daily
• Citrus Bergamot 2000mg daily
• CoQ10 300mg daily
• AXIS (Driven Nutrition) – 3x serves dosed daily
• NAC 600mg daily
• Fish Oil (1500mg EPA/DHA total, split 3x daily)
• Magnesium Glycinate 1500mg (split 3x daily)
• Taurine 1000mg daily
• TUDCA 2000mg (split 2x daily)
• Aspirin 100mg daily
• L-Citrulline 8g (split 2x daily)
• Caffeine 300–600mg depending on the day

---

Closing Thoughts​

Right now I feel awesome—big, lean, and ready to grow. This is the most dialled in I’ve ever been, and I’m beyond excited to see what we can create this growth phase. The plan is to keep food stable, only escalating if training progress stalls, with adjustments driven by performance and recovery rather than chasing a scale weight.

Every variable is locked in. Every day counts. Time to fkn grow.

@PassiveHulk man you just keep getting better week by week. It’s crazy how much your physique keeps changing for the better. I can’t wait to see where you end up with this.

General Overview​

First week and a half on the new dosages, and overall I’m feeling really, really good. Strength and performance have been absolutely flying with some huge progressions in the gym and the pumps have been insane. Outside of training, I’ve felt mostly amazing and super locked into the process, although I’ve noticed a few mild side effects creeping in — mainly a little irritability and a noticeably lower sex drive which I thought was interesting.

This lines up pretty well with my most recent bloodwork, which showed testosterone levels on the lower side for still building up from the first couple weeks out of prep at 27nmol and 800 free. I suspect this is due to pulling test in peak week and the EQ being run so high right out of the gate whilst I had low oestrogen from peak week, eq potentially also occupying some of the androgen receptors and somewhat suppressing the impact of the test. Will be discussing this with coach at Wednesday’s check-ins and may need to push test slightly to restore some more androgen load.

---

Cycle Adjustments​

• Testosterone Enanthate: 300mg/week (unchanged, may increase pending check-in)
• Equipoise: 1200mg/week (continuing high push phase)
• NPP: 70mg EOD (added to assist with elbow irritation that’s been lingering since prep)
• HGH: 8iu daily (split AM/PM)
• Insulin: None (holding off – sensitivity still extremely high)
• Retatrutide: ~1mg per week total, split between 3–4 ad hoc doses depending on appetite
• BPC-157: 1mg daily (increased to assist with elbow)
• TB-500: 1mg daily (increased to assist with elbow)
• 5-Amino 1MQ: 100mg daily (split over two doses)
• MOTS-C: 1mg daily

---

Nutrition Update​

• Training Days: 285P / 690C / 50F
• Rest Days: 285P / 575C / 60F

Food has been increased slightly, with carbs pushed up on both training and rest days. Digestion remains phenomenal — food is sitting perfectly, energy is stable, and no bloating or discomfort at all.

---

Training and Recovery​

Training has been absolutely electric. Every session feels explosive, strength is climbing rapidly, and recovery between sessions has been incredible. The addition of NPP has already made a noticeable difference with joint comfort — particularly around the elbow, which was flaring up a bit post-show with the strength rebound. Despite the workload increase and higher intensity, recovery markers remain excellent.

Unfortunately, I did fall a bit under the weather with a bad cold/flu over the past couple of days, but hopefully nothing major, just a short setback that’ll pass quickly.

---

Reflections on High-Dose EQ​

Running EQ this high has been an interesting experience. In the gym, it’s genuinely one of the best compounds I’ve ever used, strength progressions, pumps, and muscular endurance are all next-level. Outside of the gym, however, I’ve noticed moments of being slightly flat, somewhat overstimulated, and occasionally more stressed or easily overwhelmed. Hard to say whether that’s purely EQ-related or more to do with current business stress and workload, but it’s something I’m mindful of and working on. In general though, this is the best training has ever felt, and this is of absolutely paramount importance to me and the love of the process and progression of the process too in my opinion so honest review so far EQ is absolutely amazing at higher dosages but I am keen to push the testosterone up as I feel this will improve a lot of facets of the cycle structure.

So with that being said, most of the time I’m feeling incredible — motivated, clear, and beyond focused on the process. This phase is just beginning to take shape, and I can already feel it’s going to be something special.
