    Try a double drop and go from 120 to 110, then 100 (unless you get your reps from the 110s)

    If you're doing RP, go for the same weight. But when you drop set, only drop the weight slightly and, if you're not getting your desired reps, then double drop until you reach the reps you're shooting for.

    I'm excited to see what happens this cycle. I'm confident in my training and I realize now that I was never eating enough. It seems like all I do is eat. I may have to start using b12 or a peptide to get my appetite up when or if I put on more mass.

    I use b-12 1mg per week with my TRT. Can't say it made any noticeable difference for me. I do keep ghrp-6 in the house for those times when I need to eat but can't stomach the idea of food 150mcg and 20 minutes later I feel like I haven't eaten all day.

    Yeah, not sure if I want to be hungry all the time either

    I don't use it regularly, tried the 3x per day protocol and didn't get any huge benefit from it as far as real gains, but when I need to get a meal in and the thought of it makes me wanna vomit I can be be hungry pretty quick.

    For me it's usually first thing in the morning. I wake up around 2:30am to get ready and hit the gym before work so sometimes it's hard to stomach the thought that early, and the ghrp puts that to bed pretty quick for me.

    That's good to know. I didn't realize you could use it and it would boost your appetite that quick.

    Yeah, its pretty crazy how hungry it makes you. I've taken both GHRP-6 and GHRP-2. 2 makes me hungry and 6 doesn't at all, but it is different for everybody. I can't control the hunger though. When I dosed peptides in the morning and during the day, it made me so hungry that I would over-shoot my macros for that meal, which threw off the rest of the day. Aside from the hunger, they are skeptical in whether they do anything. I felt when I first started taking them, I was a lot leaner, even with the feeding. But then they seemed to lose effectiveness. They did increase my IGF levels (per bloodwork) considerably, but I was dosing them 4-5x a day. Lots of pokes, which got really old. Plus it was really hard to time the injections with my meals. The increased hunger did help me on my tren cycle though.

    I hope youre using the smith or have a couple of spotters. I was working out alone as usual, nobody else was even in the gym. Attempted one too many reps and got stuck with 295 at the bottom of the movement (flat bench). I have used the smith ever since I was able to get 295 off by rolling it down and flopping it onto the floor but 405 I would have been completely fvcked.

    I prefer doing quads first because it's the biggest leg muscle but I think it's healthy to switch up to keep your body guessing.

    Kel is a big proponent of switching up regular routines.
