[Noah Wixx]

It was pointed out by a friend I got my dates wrong for sobriety - day 1 was the 5/5, making today day 23 (and not Monday). No big deal, just wanted to be transparent.

Saw the doctor yesterday and good news is: bloods are perfect, albeit I’m deficient in iron. Tested was ESR, FSH, LH, HDL, LDL, total testosterone, free testosterone, E2, SHBG, E/LFT, iron studies and thyroid function. I would post up the actual results but accessing them and copying them over is quite a time consuming task. If there is any specific results any of you would like let me know and I’ll do my best to get them up.

Bad news is: I’ve injured my rotator cuff. They gave me some exercises + stretches to do to help it recover. In the meantime, they recommended no pressing/ pushing movements for a few weeks/ until it has healed. Considering picking up some BPC157 and TB500 to assist healing - does anyone have any experience with either of these compounds?

Resting heart rate and blood pressure are both sitting at a good spot. Overall, my physical health seems to be doing really well based on bloods, BP and resting heart rate. Looking forward to continuing to improve on these results. Absolutely stoked things have come back so well after the recent blast and episode of addiction; really glad no (permanent) damage has been done.

Diet continues to go well. Great to get back into the gym today and get a good pump. Generally I would do deadlifts on back day but didn’t for two reasons - 1) didn’t want to irritate my freshly tattooed leg and 2) my training partner has a long-term injury that prevents them from doing deadlifts.

@the_alcatraz cheers for the feedback brother, will pickup some melatonin and have incorporated more protein into the diet as suggested.
@Noah Wixx that means a lot to hear from you man, takes a lot of pressure off and also helps with the shame I feel at misleading the Evo folk
@25homes cheers man, doing much better now and glad to be back - really appreciate the support from yourself and the rest of the EF crew, genuinely makes a big difference.

That’s all for me today!

[Golden_Circle]

@Noah Wixx thanks for the unconditional support brother, your words mean a lot and are very encouraging.

@the_alcatraz yeah man, copied and pasted across from the reports.- if you really want the reports I can PM them to you but it is a bit of an ask, it’s a fair effort to properly edit out all the personal details, and not keen to have any part of the actual report posted up for privacy/ security reasons. Just let me know

Great close to the week - four weeks sober next Wednesday, and getting more and more confident in my ability to be sober.

Challenges this week have been:

• receiving the news of the shoulder injury and having to switch up training to accommodate for this.
• desire to increase either the test and/ or masteron up to 300mg particularly given my bloods are really good. It’s been tough mentally adjusting to the concept of cruising and understanding the practicalities of what dosages are considered appropriate for cruising. Happy with the 180/180 but am mentally struggling at the idea of lost opportunity for gains.
• financial stress and practical difficulties of not having a car - someone slashed my tyres this week. Cost of new tyres put me back a fair bit and it’s made it challenging to get to the gym (currently walking there)
• not being able to train legs so as to allow my leg tattoo to heal, always feel really good after a leg workout so missing that feelings

Picked up an iron supplement to correct the deficiency - hopefully this should be reflected in the bloods in three months time.

Also uploaded some food pics - some cereal, Core Powerfoods Penne Bolognese and a Lite N’ Easy Chicken Parmigiana. Didn’t upload a photo of the shakes because I figured you’d all be familiar with how they look.

Blood pressure and resting heart rate are a little high, going to increase the amount of cycle support I take to address this. All other lifestyle factors are managed so I think this is the best option, albeit could increase cardio.

@Golden_Circle That chocolate cereal. Looks pretty good, man. I haven't had cereal in a long time though. What kind of cereal is that?
