Hey guys what's up? This is my first post even though I've been reading and getting great advice from the forums for a few weeks now. I am currently deployed to northern Afghanistan on small combat outpost in Kunduz. I can't say much else about it due to operational security other than my fellow buddies and I are infantry and in the hottest zone in this awful country.
I figured I'd post in this section even though I have a couple questions that could be scattered among the forums. We have a gym that contains only the most basic of equipment... dumbells up to 80lbs, bench, leg press, squat rack, pull up bar, dip bars, couple treadmills and a couple ellipticals.
The majority of us spend our couple free hours at the end of the day grinding out aggression in the wight room. Although our diets can be terrible due to some awful cooking, we have access to mail order supplements and have been taking the various protein, creatine, and NO supplements. Recently, we started using X-Tren (aka tren-xtreme) which I believe counts as a pro-anabolic and not an actual steroid. We've found pretty good results but was wondering what else we could be throwing in to our routines.
Any advice would be great... workout routines (which I have found a couple of great threads, since this community is one of the most helpful I've ever seen), basic supps, pro gear, etc. And if you'd like updates on the war I'd be glad to letcha know how it's going... well as much as I can without violating OPSEC anyways.
As for me, I get 15 days of R&R at the end of November. I'm 5'11, 218 and maxing bench at 285. I'd like to lose a good 20lbs of fat while putting on as much muscle as possible during my deployment (seeing as how this is the only stress relief/entertainment we grunts have out here). And like I said... I have my break coming up... I was 237 when I left home in April and would love to get some "WOW!"s when I get home. Thanks guys!
