That is awesome to hear about your recovery man. Everything you have been doing has paid off huge.
Oh ya ha daughter is amazing. Mom and baby doing well. I am at my parent today. They are both 93. Baby is headed this way to meet them. I’m am so excited and proud.
I will try for gym pics. I usually put phone up during gym time. I am not a pic taking person.
My main gym is rough old and freaking amazing.
It is cool to be using Ronnie Coleman’s personal dumbbell set. I only use the bottom half. The top half is way too big for me. Heck some weigh more than I do. Think about that. You big guys can put one of me in each hand and press. Yall amaze me!
I get it, but do some sharing I dont take pics either but would be great to see you really share the interesting training bro
EF family here to support you @Slyderkt
@Slyderkt man I really need to get some bpc and tb to try to get my shoulder healed up.
I am all for it. Remember that and PRP shots can help heal stuff that is heal able. They also help with inflation. Do good research and if it is what you need it is great stuff.
It did not fix my stuff, but man it help heal tremendously.
I also have a great sports therapist. He is not a massage person. His back ground it PT. But he is way more than that.
Shoulder bursitis is no joke either. I had it ones and it also sucks.
Hope you feel better.
Shoulder issues are the worse dude i had such a problem with them
@Slyderkt hows the diet training going up?
Focus on that clean eating!!
@Slyderkt i didnt realize how lean you is bro pump
i see the lower abs coming in too
you looking lean and tight
but we should talk about building some mass, you try on that?
I would love to build mass.
I have kinda concluded I am not a mass builder.
Done tren, dbol, Tbol, NPP, primo.deca, every sarm. Test 200-600 Etc…
High protein, good fats, low carb 1200 cal cuts, 4000 cal high protein clean bulks.
When I get bigger all the parts I want to stay trim get bigger.
I feel better trim. Just want to make the muscles larger than they are.
I eat right train hard. Fought many injurys. And I am no spring chicken. I hate to use labels but yes I am a hard gainer.
On the success side I am developing a lot of the little muscle that I never had before. Only really been at it 7 years 59 years old this year.
I can run around at 180- 210lb 8-15 % bf.
Sure I would love to be 10% bf at 200 lbs.
I do use PEDs. I understand they only enhance my hard work. I do not think I can just take something and swell up. Some guys do, not me. Others may work harder than me but I’m consistent and ready for any challenge.
I finally got the weight off from last couple year of bulking and 2.5 year of shitty shoulder.

i think if we going to build mass we need to start with food bro
rightcan we get high protein over 300 grams? to start @Slyderkt
Up there with my not doing chins in 30 years
I believe 2 lbs chicken breast I about 200g protein at 1200 calories. Tell if that’s wrong. Too early for math.i think if we going to build mass we need to start with food bro
can we get high protein over 300 grams? to start @Slyderkt
Right now I trying to hang about 1500cal.
Just used chicken as an example. I can eat other proteins.
I think that might be more accurate for a start. Trying to really work on the last stubborn areas of fat.
Going to see a plastic surgeon mid April about the loose skin.
Yes that is total vanity. But I don’t care. It bugs me.
I’ve worked hard to be like this.
Early morning pic. Too early to pose

Shoulder problems are a pain in the butt for sure.
And they don't get easier as you get older.
And they don't get easier as you get older.
Dips are a great exercise. Glad to see you throwing them in there.
@Slyderkt to see you like this i can see you are super lean bro
and the loose skin before you do the surgery why dont we try to do a light bulk?
you look great and lean in the pic, we can gain mass a bit and see where you are on skin at that point
if you slice it off and get bigger hard time
I can try again.
Abs use to be bigger but I haven’t worked on them or Casio in past two years. Been focusing on trying to bulk.
Now I was gonna try and get abs back while continuing to still ad size. All while staying lean.
Loose skin has been here since I lost the dad bod 7 years ago.
I can grow abs and help it. But if I do a push up or plank. You can see it hang down. I am going to Atleast go see a Dr and talk. In about 20 days.
In my 40’s then skin would shrink back over time. In my 50’s it stopped snapping back.
Go in about 200g protein today.
200 grams protein is a start, getting more protein and food in to start but can you meal prep?
100g is about 21-23g protein IIRC. 454g is a lb so a bit under 200
Yes I normally meal prep.
Just been lazy about it.
Fasting will do really good at tightening up, loose skin.
It will actually shrink those cells.
It will actually shrink those cells.
start doing it now again bro and lets get higher protein and higher carbs in to bulk up a bit @Slyderkt
@Slyderkt man you’re looking great big guy. Very lean
I have been dealing with this loose skin for 6 years now. Since losing my dad bod and beer belly.
All my research has shown that once you have lost elasticity in the skin it can not be regained.
Yes fasting eat and reproduces cells and give some resemblance to tightening. But not enough old skin.
Creams are not an option. Yes some add plumpness and retain cologen, but not enough in my case. Hydrations plays a part in all of this also..
Getting bigger muscles to fill the skin also an option. But not enough by its self.
Yes do all these things and I will see a small improvement.
Again my age is 90% the problem.
Of course this is my opinion. I want to talk to some different type of drs to see what options are out there. I agree slicing is not my only or favorite idea.
Of course keep the ideas rolling in. I don’t know it all and love to hear ideas.

@Slyderkt hell yeah bro! hit the recoveryjourney hard!
Sorry, I can’t remember what you’re on at the moment, but do you have GH in the mix, or have you tried GH?
I’d be interested to see what 4-6IU per day did as far as skin quality and whether it had any positive effects on the loose skin.
I am taking 2 iu per day 5 day per week
How’s the budget to boost that to 4IU, 7 days a week?
I’ll See what I can do.
@Slyderkt I don’t blame you about the loose skin man. Kudos to you for doing what you want to do!
So what are you eating?
Lean
90/10 lean ground beef 8 oz 1 cup brown rice 1 cup broccoli x4 a day 3,290 calories 251g protien 341g carbs 60g fiber 5g sugar i keep it pretty simple other than, cayenne pepper, sea salt and pepper, sometimes i add in some low sodium taco seasoning or low calorie sugar free bbq sauce, i tend to stick with the basics as it works, just chicken after 2 meals is just hard to eat all the time for me.
Sloppy Joe mix also works really well for the ground beef if it gets really boring for you.
@Slyderkt youve done amazing work to come this far bro!

perfect leg sunday actually bro but you gotta get core work in there, can you?
Yep I am adding it now.
Saturday and today for example I ended work out with core.
Today incline sit ups with 35 lb plate pressed up at top.
Hanging in arm straps leg raises and side oblige knee ups. incline Russian twist 35 lb plate.
Spin 45 lb plate around head and front of body. Not sure what that’s called. 65 lb dumbell side raises.
Flat bench knee tucks.
Today was a shoulder work out. Trying to really hit rear delts. My right one rear is finally taking shape. Left one is still lagging.
But good improvement I last year before surgery.
rear delts slam it nice back with some lat pulls too bro
you plank up?
No problem I add planks and mountain climbers again. Also started doing ab roller again and cable crunches on knees
try to get both in each training session for the pump and core @Slyderkt
Went to a new gym the other. Is very close to the new home I am about to build. I had heard about it but just thought it was liked cause it was new and fancy. Yep new. About 3 million dollars of equipment.
Crazy lighting. Lots of mirrors, locker room, showers, water bottle fillers, drinking fountains, posing room, and saunas.etc……
Equipment is from around the world. Some I have never heard of.
Atlantis, Olympia, M Toture, Panatta, Megamass, and more. Heck they had 35 chest machines. I hit about 10. Also did some ab machines. Lots of free weights, and Casio equipment. Definitely not a commercial gym or an old school Gym!
Woke up today sore in places new. Each machine hit, and adjusted different.
My trainer is trying to move all his client over to here.
He says he is limited at the old gym we are at. Lots of folks are maxed out there. So he owes it to his clients to give them more and bigger challenges.
I am all in!!!
Yes light change colors . This pic only shows about half of it. Balcony full of shit ton cardio equipment.

LA fitness kinda suckssss bro i hate it but its close many times right haha
Cheat meal
Went to a burger joint down town called not a damn chance.
Burger double meat and only comes one way with everything.
Ask for a change they say NADC.
Had that and split an order of fries animal style.
All was good. I fasted till dinner time.
Very full after words and couldn’t finish fries.
Stomach has shrunk. In side and out.

i wanted to see the burger reading this lol
cheat meals are fine but you train today bro?
those types of gyms are amazing the first 2-3 years they open then start going downhilll fast usually. best thing is hit it until the original owners let it go to shit and then move on
the gym i was going to the owner was motivated and there daily. after about 5 years never saw him again, he completely got bored. they never updated equipment even though we were paying that stupid yearly scam fee. equipment was breaking and not being fixed, falling apart. members were going lower and lower class. i had to leave
Get up. Go to another place.
Not a fan of the neon but I WOULD like to try those squat machines (front and centre)
Oh ya I trained and fasted so I could enjoy my cheat meal.
Ya we shall see.
They have three locations around DFW.
Only been three times and still kinda lost.
But so far hitting it hard and liking the change.
smartly done bro
whats your diet training today? start sharing with EF fam more please
@Slyderkt I bet that burger was damn good! Love a good cheat meal.
Took today off from gym. Went to chiropractor. Got adjusted and did decompression.
Got to look at the follow up X-rays we took last week. Compared to my first set we took maybe 5 months ago. Spine looks much better. It wasn’t terrible. It was stiff and little range of motion. Things look way more flexible.
Today ate :
breakfast - 3 boiled eggs will half each yolk,Greek 0% yogurt, blue berry and honey.
Lunch - 6 oz chicken breast
Snack - protein bar, package of almonds
Dinner - 8 oz chicken breast w/ hummus , apple,
day off is good bro
but on the day off you gotta have bone broth and collagen remember you're post surgery
@Slyderkt Sounds like a delicious and well-deserved cheat meal! "Not a Damn Chance" sounds like a burger joint with personality. It's common to feel extra full after a cheat meal when you've been eating cleaner, but enjoy it!
Try to record what you did on which so we can see the new play dude
All is great. Loving the new gym. Switched to more morning workouts. Holding at 180 lbs
Been crazy around here. My father passed away and funeral it this weekend. All is good. He was 93 and lived a full live. Was not well last couple years. Declined quickly. Friday night went to sleep and did not wake up. This is all for the best. He is in much better place now.
I went to plastic surgeon. Going to have excess skin removed. But first I need to have inguinal hernia looked at. No pain. Didn’t know it was there. both side poke out. I can make them bulge when pushing. Now that I am lean yo see them. I did not know they existed

@Slyderkt wanting to see you throw up training again and not just go for surgery
As I posted in another log changing gyms can be great
Hernias are something that we get as we get older.
I get mine taken care of. I have a good doctor.
