Session:
Week 5 - Chest & Back Focus

Week one of a new five-week block. Felt good being back in the usual environment after a disrupted week last week due to COVID. Last week was a deload, and the body feels fresh as a result. Despite the lighter loads during that time, performance hasn’t taken a hit. Today’s session included bench press, chest-supported DB rows, incline DB press, single-arm pulldowns, seated cable flyes, straight-arm pulldowns and rope crunches. Volume and intensity felt solid for week one. Pump came on quickly and I had good energy throughout.

Cardio:
20-minute walk at lunch.

Nutrition & Supps:
Lunch was a satay chicken meal. Pre-workout included a wrap with PB2 and honey, annd then a bit closer to the workout I had pump juice, pre-workout, and ALCAR. Intra-workout included pump juice, creatine, and carb powder. Post-workout was two scoops of whey, Nutri-Grain, and milk.

Recovery:
8 hours and 9 minutes of sleep last night. No joint pain or niggles today. Elbow is being actively managed (tennis elbow right side), and some (presumed) flat foot issues are being worked on. Body feels well recovered and ready for the new block.

Current PEDs:
Test E: 437.5mg/week
EQ: 210mg/week
NPP: 210mg/week
GH: 5IU/day, 7 days/week

Current Health Supplements:
Same as mentioned in the intro post.

Side Effects & Adjustments:
Nothing of note- no injection issues, mood is steady, libido and energy are both in a good place.

Adjustments Made:
New training block now underway.

Progress Updates:
Morning weight: 110.9kg. No issues with performance. Physique photos to come later this week.

General Comments:
Feeling really good physically and mentally. It’s good being back in a proper groove after the disruptions of the past week. Routine is set, energy is high, and it feels like there's a clear run at this new phase.

See attached of where they are currently. Likely will push training day up another 200 or so at the end of this week, depending on what happens with body weight.

Session:
Week 5 - Shoulders & Arms Focus

After missing yesterday’s session due to a lower back strain (from prolonged poor posture while working), today’s workout went ahead as planned. Training included seated DB press, leaning lateral raises, facepulls, EZ bar curls, triceps pushdowns, preacher curls, and overhead extensions. Got better as the session progressed- blood flow and movement helped completely clear up residual tightness. Overall execution and pump were both solid.

Cardio:
No formal cardio, but did a (really) slow-paced 15-minute walk at lunch to encourage blood flow through the back and hips.

Nutrition & Supps:
Lunch was BBQ chicken with jasmine rice. Pre-workout included whey, lite milk and Chex, followed by an energy drink closer to the time. Intra-workout included creatine, carb powder, and pump juice.

Recovery:
7 hours and 30 minutes of good quality sleep. No elbow or joint pain. Lower back strain from yesterday seems to have been resolved, but will continue to monitor and address with better posture and more standing during the workday.

Current PEDs:
Test E: 437.5mg/week
EQ: 210mg/week
NPP: 210mg/week
GH: 5IU/day, 7 days/week

Current Health Supplements:
Same as mentioned in the intro post.

Side Effects & Adjustments:
No changes. Mood and energy stable, no injection issues.

Adjustments Made:
No training or compound adjustments. Will prioritise posture and standing breaks throughout the day at work to reduce back strain risk.

Progress Updates:
Morning weight: 110.0kg.

General Comments:
Grateful the back issue wasn’t serious and resolved quickly. Physique and energy remain in a good place. Looking to stay improve with posture and recovery management through the rest of the week.

Session:
Week 5 - Hamstrings & Glutes Focus

Session included lying leg curls, stiff-legged deadlifts, reverse DB lunges, cable glute kickbacks, single-leg cable adductions, and calf raises on the leg press. Strong session overall- body moved well and back was 95% sorted by the time warm-ups were complete. Slight tightness in the morning but resolved by training time.

Cardio:
25-minute walk at a decent pace over lunch. Good for circulation and helped shake off early-day fatigue.

Nutrition & Supps:
Breakfast was oats with whey and milk. Morning tea included high-protein pudding and casein powder. Lunch was a macro-friendly butter chicken with jasmine rice (picture attached). Pre-workout was custard casein, lite milk and Chex cereal (picture attached), followed by pre-workout, pump juice and ALCAR. Intra-workout was pump juice, carb powder, and creatine. No post-workout meal logged yet with dinner upcoming.

Recovery:
6 hours and 45 minutes of sleep. Not the best quality- felt a little flat mid-morning but improved after walking. Digestion and joints both good. Lower back issue nearly resolved.

Current PEDs:
Test E: 437.5mg/week
EQ: 210mg/week
NPP: 210mg/week
GH: 5IU/day

Current Health Supplements:
Same as mentioned in the intro post.

Side Effects & Adjustments:
Injected right glute this morning- no issues. Energy improved as the day progressed. No side effects. GH remains a morning pin due to impact on sleep when taken at night.

Adjustments Made:
No major changes today. Continuing focus on food quality and timing to support performance and recovery.

Progress Updates:
Morning weight: 110.7kg.

General Comments:
End of week 1 of this new block is shaping up well. Back is nearly fully resolved and legs are feeling good with the current hamstring/quad split. Will be monitoring sleep closely heading into the weekend. Looking forward to bloodwork in around 3-4 weeks to assess where things sit.
