You coming along bro. Get that protein high 300g plus and keep crushing gymAlright yesterday was arm day and of course cardio before and after. Did quite a few things different to up the intensity and damn felt like my arms were going to fall off by the end! Great workout.
EZ Bar tricep extension: 60x15 60x15 60x15 60x15 60x15
Tricep dip: 140x15 160x15 160x15 180x12 180x11

Cable bicep curl: 80x15 70x15 60x15 70x13 80x12(last 2 sets no rest time just pushed as hard as I could and went slow felt like my biceps were going to explode!)
Dumbbell hammer curl: 25x15 25x15 20x12 20x12 20x12(last 2 sets rest about 15 seconds then then go super slow I could see me veins popping up)

My favorite arm day I have had. On the reverse curls that was my first time doing those. I supersetted them with regular curls. I didn’t count the regular curls just kept going until I couldn’t stand it anymore. Attached some pictures as well. These are immediately post workout and no flexing. Not the greatest pictures not sure you can really see too much.
Bloating seems to be going away so that’s good.
@BrightFuture 100lbs is a good weight for you push it upToday was chest day. For the first time I hit 100 pounds per hand on the incline hammer chest press. Felt incredible! Although I did try to barbell bench again. Gave up after the 3rd set and switched to dumbbell bench because it was irritating my left shoulder.
Incline hammer chest press: 45x15 70x12 80x10 90x8 100x6
Barbell bench: 135x8 145x5 155x3
Dumbbell bench: 50x10 60x10 70x7
Dumbbell incline fly: 15x15 15x15 15x15 15x15
Machine fly: 85x12 100x12 100x12 100x12
I really want to be able to barbell bench and it’s driving me crazy that I can’t. I should have known better after the first set. I can get to about 6-7 reps and left shoulder just doesn’t like it. I need to just quit worrying about barbell bench and stick with the hammer strength and dumbbells. Bright side is I did make it to 100 pounds per hand. Also I think this was the first time I hit 10 reps with 80 pounds. It was also the first time I did 90 pounds. So lots of progress happening!
30 minutes cardio before and after.

Yeah I was stunned that I was able to do that. Bit difficult to get it started because you start off in the negative position.@BrightFuture 100lbs is a good weight for you push it up
I hope so! Definitely on my way there. Seen lots of guys in my gym doing 3 or even 4 plates.3 plates next!
I definitely am. Didn’t feel any discomfort. I love the hammer strength presses. Gym also has a flat bench press hammer strength that I might try out next Monday.be careful on those shoulders doing 100 pounds each
Today was back day and got a good workout in. 30 minutes cardio before and after. Mix between stair stepper and eliptical.
Barbell Row: 155x12 175x10 185x8 195x7
Hammer strength lat pulldown: 70x15 80x12 90x10 100x12 110x8 (weight is per side)
Cable seated row: 135x15 135x12 155x10 155x10 155x10
Cable V Bar Pulldown: 120x12 120x12 120x10 120x12 135x8
Straight arm pulldown: 100x15 100x15 100x15 100x12 100x12
Barbell row has been my favorite back exercise. I gotta say the hammer strength lat pulldown may become my new favorite back exercise. I wish I had been doing it this whole time. Much better than the cable wide grip version. Not sure what the difference is but I definitely feel it much better in my last. Also the weight for these is for each side just like the other hammer strength exercises.
Also did some quick bicep pump work at end before I did cardio.
@BrightFuture 221 lbs good you're doing well manI started off weighing 225 and I am down to 221 so lost 4 pounds.

@BrightFuture share some shoulder picsTomorrow is shoulder day..also known as my favorite day. Crazy because shoulders prior to this cycle was what I hated working the most. Big goal for tomorrow. I have felt stronger on the hammer strength overhead press than I have on the hammer incline chest press. This week I hit 100 pounds per hand on the incline so I should be able to do that or more on the overhead press. So looking forward to that! Plan is below:
Hammer overhead press: 5 sets 15,12,10,8,6
Dumbbell lateral raise: 5 sets 12-15 reps
Hammer strength shrug: 5 sets 15 reps
Machine reverse fly: 5 sets 12-15 reps
Facepulls: 5 sets 15-20 reps
30 minutes cardio before and after.

@BrightFuture I would say go with 23G 1.5 inchAlright guys so I need some help. I woke up Wednesday morning and my left glute was pretty swollen. So I just did cardio because it hurt to put pressure on it. Same for Thursday. This morning I went to gym with the intention of working out and not just doing cardio but could barely doing anything because I could not put any pressure on it.
It is definitely my fault because I had my wife do both the test and the deca in the same spot. I did this because the left glute and left thigh seem to give me significantly less problems than elsewhere. I definitely won’t inject into the same spot twice again.
With that being said, what needle/syringe brand do you all prefer? Granted I know this time is worse than usual because what I did was dumb. They never hurt going in, I barely even feel it.
Hoping I can get back in the gym tomorrow and Sunday. Did my test injection yesterday in left thigh and no issues.
Yeah I did 2 injections. Can I draw from both with the same needle? I always have swelling and I am assuming this why. This time was way worse though because I did 2 injections into the left ventro-glute. Will never do that again. Bright side though my shoulders are really starting to grow. Will get some pictures up later.Are you mixing the test and deca in the same syringe or pinning them separately? No need to do 2 separate pins. Just find more spots that work too. Delts, pecs, ventro-gluteal are really easy too. I don't have a favourite brand per se but I prefer to draw with a 18g needle (any length), and pin with a 23-25g 1" needle. That will work on me for any spot.
23G 1.5 inch is what I draw with. I injected with that a couple times and it was very painful.. swelling went down a lot but it’s pretty tender still.@BrightFuture I would say go with 23G 1.5 inch
can you post up a pic of the swelling for us?
Yeah I am loving it! Especially my shoulders!Legit updates buddy.......
@BrightFuture you draw with the same needle you inject? you need to change them23G 1.5 inch is what I draw with. I injected with that a couple times and it was very painful.. swelling went down a lot but it’s pretty tender still.
Will try and get a pic a little later.
Not anymore. I change the needle before injecting.@BrightFuture you draw with the same needle you inject? you need to change them
@BrightFuture before and after like a dreamLots of pictures to post up! Biggest improvements I have noticed are back and shoulders. I want to get my arms to grow more but that may be something I am going to have to work harder at.
keep those meals clean you PUSH it hardTomorrow is chest day!
Hammer incline chest press: 5 sets 15,12,10,8,6
Chest Press: 5 sets 15,12,10,8,6

That’s the plan for tomorrow. No more injection mishaps and no more missed days. Doing test and deca tomorrow. Plan is to draw the test, switch the needle then draw the deca then switch the needle and inject in right ventricular glute. Meal prep is also done.
@BrightFuture body will take time to adjust but you doing wellAlright so feeling much better now. Woke up yesterday and felt off almost like I had a cold or something. I think it’s probably related to my testosterone levels being saturated now. Woke up today and felt the same but went to gym anyway. Did chest/back and starting tomorrow routine is back to normal.
Hammer incline chest press: 45x20 70x12 80x10 90x 8 100x6(2 more reps than last week!)
Hammer strength lat pulldown: 90x12 100x12

After going to gym I definitely feel better. Think my body is trying to adjust to the test levels now. No big deal just can’t let it stop me! Tomorrow is shoulder day which is also still my favorite day!
n2guard is a win, on it NOW taking my 5 capsAlso forgot to add that I got more N2Guard on the way! Today I had my 13th injection. Did both the testosterone and deca in the same syringe but different needles. Also did it in my right ventricular glute. Didn’t feel a thing.
5 caps and not 7?@BrightFuture body will take time to adjust but you doing well
n2guard is a win, on it NOW taking my 5 caps
Yeah I think it’s test flu. I think it may have been brewing for about 2 weeks it just didn’t hit me hard until recently.you might have test flu it's possible or you could have picked something up at the gym
