There's this IFBB pro guy around at gym, he's not massive but very well built and defined, what makes me turn head though is the upper back, inches of actual fleshy thickness (my calves are bigger than his though).
I'm jealous, how do I mold mine into that?

Thursday for me so that means isolation movements at Snap Fitness located about 2-minutes away from my home. Not an excellent gym by any standard but it gets the job done. Wife had an excellent trip to San Diego and it all of a sudden looks like a potential option. We shall see. She is academia so things move at snail pace. Sure as hell would prefer San Diego compared to Bangalore. Still got to finish my own stuff here and that will take some time. Regardless, we both miss home and regardless of where in America we end up it is home.
Today's training I worked Chest and arms. I warm-up, do one working set and drop set that on every single movement. Feels good.

Decent day today but noticed some strength loss in legs and since that is unacceptable and my body fat is at a reasonable level I am starting my Test-E and Deca cycle for the next 14-weeks. Nothing crazy but not ran a long one for a while so shall see how it goes. Only pinning twice per week is nice though. Switching training Monday and upping calories to 2850/day which should be close to a surplus for me. I kept losing fat/weight at 2600 so boosting it a bit. If not enough I'll adjust as I go along.
Front Squat
3×2 @ 90kg
1×1 @ 100kg, 100kg, 100kg, 100kg
NOTE: This is where I noticed strength loss. I have also decided not to use a belt to strengthen up the back a bit more.

Rows, rows, and rows, really focus on the contraction, and it takes time. Check out some of the Dorian Yates YouTube Blood and Guts videos. There are many guys with great backs, but Yates' back was wide, thick, and just carried slabs of muscle. Literally looked like a granite statue that had come to life.

Not training but I had a fantastic dinner conversation. The conversation was all over the place, and it veered into second world war somehow. A very touchy subject here as the British kept sending the Indian Gurkhas to the frontlines. Anyways, people were talking about all sorts of thing, and of course, Hitler comes up, and this older Indian gentleman turns to me and says: "You know, I really admire your man Hitler. The world may not have agreed with his beliefs, but you CAN say he never gave up". Your man, HAHA. Anyway, went pretty downhill from there.

Sunday morning in Bangalore and just came back from the gym. Had a glorious chest and arms session squeezing every last bit out of those muscles. Had two things happen at the gym this morning. First thing is the guy who decided that putting a bench in front of the dumbbell stand on a lateral angel was a good idea. Apparently, me bending over him to grab stuff was not enough of the indication that he should move, so I had to move it for him as he spoke zero English. The second thing was a guy who came up to me in the middle of my dumbbell curls wanting to know what I eat while I workout. Not entirely sure what he meant I said I eat some oats before I get there. "No no," he said, "while you are working out, is that not the most important part, to eat while you are training?". Took some convincing but said I never eat while training because, well, that is just dumb. Not sure he believed me.

LOL, that's another one of the reasons I haven't ventured into a commercial gym in ages. I don't mind random conversation before I lift or after, but if I'm into lifting mode the only voice I want disturbing me needs to be female.
I don't do the intraworkout nutrition program either. Figure I need all of my blood keeping O2 going to my brain and muscles, not headed to my stomach for digestion. Honestly, with intense lifting I would probably projectile vomit things anyway. Keeping water in my system is enough of a battle.There are 3 loves in my life: my wife, my English mastiffs, and my weightlifting....Man, my wife gets really pissed when I get the 3 confused...

I am getting back into regular work outs. Started this morning with 5 minute fat blaster to kick start metabolism. 5 calisthenic type movements 3x. I was sweating.
After work I’ll be doing chest (and maybe tri) plus hour of cycle class.
I decided yesterday to add Tuesday and Thursday lunchtime workouts at the gym at work. My focus is cardio on Jacobs Ladder. It won’t take long and I will have time to shower since I sweat so much! There’s a shower in ladies bathroom so I can change here and walk to gym for a quick turn.
I’m eating clean (except Saturday birthday celebration) and back to the gluten free, refined sugar free, high protein, mod fat and lower carb approach. I didn’t master keto.

Well, now it looks like Mrs. AG is going.to need 2 root canals and 2 crowns, still will be cheaper than the dental implant procedure. She is upset because she was hoping we wouldn't have to spend any $$, LOL.
Took her to 5 Guys to cheer her up. I ate a cheeseburger....now I hate me.There are 3 loves in my life: my wife, my English mastiffs, and my weightlifting....Man, my wife gets really pissed when I get the 3 confused...

Same here, so I've been wearing a mouthpiece for lifting. Had one done twice because it had a "hidden" nerve (supposedly)? The worst thing about it is the latex shield they put down to keep the debris from falling down your gullet. When the latex comes out I'm always afraid Marcus is going to make a surprise appearance. ;/
If they get the anesthetic to the right place it pretty much numbs half my face? They were checking my bite for high spots with the contact paper last time. Told me to bite down and gently grind my teeth. Damned if I wasn't so numb that I bit the living shit out of my tongue. Came home and nuked it with a silver nitrate stick to stop the bleeding and start the healing process. A-holes should've warned me I was cannibalizing my tongue, lol.
The 2 root canals are defo cheaper than the dental implant so that's a good thing.Last edited by almostgone; 07-16-2018 at 12:00 PM.

Got myself registered at the work gym and hit Jacobs ladder. First time using that piece of equipment and it’s quite the cardio workout

Since I am in a deload week, I decided to try Marcus Shoulders workout. Went decently well for not entirely knowing which weights to use for these movements. I can't do forced reps on many of them as I got no assist unless it is a machine where you can "cheat" the weight up and then slowly lower it using the negative principle. After the workout, my shoulders were fried.
Shoulder Press (Dumbbell)
warm: 12kgx12, 20kgx12, 28kgx8
work: 32kgx9, 28kgx8, 24kgx8, 18kgx9, 14kgx8

warm: 8kgx8, 12kgx8
work: 16kgx7, 12kgx4, 8kgx6, 4kgx9
Single Side Laterals (cable)
warm: 5kgx8
work: 7.5kgx9, 7.5kgx8
Upright Barbell Row
warm: 15kgx8
work: 20kgx9, 22.5kgx7
Machine Rear Laterals

Shitty night at work, but they all can't be an easy day. On the plus side, I just snagged a bunch of baby vials of pharma cyp on the way home.
Mixture of brands.... Perrigo, Westward, and Hospira/Pfizer. Got enough to last 6 months at my prescribed dosage for less than half what I pay per vial after insurance. Will throw it into my apocalypse stash since I just picked up my scripted TRT @ pharmacy yesterday.
Will be in the shop tonight barring death or dismemberment!There are 3 loves in my life: my wife, my English mastiffs, and my weightlifting....Man, my wife gets really pissed when I get the 3 confused...
