I have no idea what is up with this tren E? When I started this cycle on January 3rd it seemed like I got night sweats right away so I was thinking it was good. Then after 5 1/2 weeks I posted this "I was doing 300mg a week and didn't really feel much different. Strength and pumps really not better and cardio not impacted at all. Bumped up to 500mg a week for the past 2 weeks, no real change." But I also started a new vial about this time. Well now about 2 1/2 weeks later with a new vial and 500mg a week, my strength is up pretty good, pumps great, sides terrible (insomnia, irritable, moody, night sweats so bad my wife is wiping me down with a towel). I wonder if the first vial was just way under dosed?
I am totally off track for the comp. I started at 219 then dropped down to 211 pretty quick, but was at 222 this morning. It is what it is and the big picture is what is most important to me. I think I will continue to try and put on muscle while I have all the tren test onboard, then cut after this cycle with change in diet and increased cardio.
Enjoying the cool SF weather as there are not many of those days in Bangalore. Hotel gym was absolutely packed this morning. Never really see women in my gym back home so must admit I was staring somewhat at some girl half my age in her yoga pants :-) 30-minutes on some stationary bike, squats, and calves. That is all I could in terms of legs with the equipment they got.
Everyone is different and reacts differently . I used to have a tattoo like Cape around my bicep. I did the twist at the top and the tatto just disappeared from the growth. [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]
Try it Beth and see if it works for you, just get ready to cry like a pussy.

Well this BB routine seems to suit me much better than powerlifting. I’d love to be that strong mofo out lifting everyone in my gym but sometimes you just have to listen to your body and make the required changes. Back to caring more about my physique than overall numbers. I feel like my routine is still pretty heavy when it comes to volume. I’ll post my workouts if anyone with more knowledge in BB would care to critique what I’m doing. Always looking to learn from those with more knowledge
Pretty much. As I’ve told you, my training methods seem to crush the fuck out of most people, and expecting to keep up could be a bad idea for most. I don’t know how the fuck I managed to do this shit without killing myself, before I went on TRT.
All I know is that my face is currently hilarious when squatting and deadlifting with the Dbol and TestE running. Looks like a roadmap of veins drawn onto the Kool-Aide man’s red ass.
There’s a word for what I do, and it isn’t machine. The word is stupid. I’m just too goddamned dumb sometimes to realize that something might be a bad idea. I’m a case of “when keeping it real goes wrong” waiting to happen, a la Mark Bell falling with an 800+ lbs. squat.
If I win this year you guys must have been falling asleep. Going to pretty much lose these two weeks and I guess we got a three week sprint after that to catch up before finishing at the end of March. At least my pants fit much better now and my wife likes it. Not sure there is much more to ask for?
We shall see how everything pans out once I drop all of this water that I’m carrying. 198 may not look completely terrible, but I definitely feel like I’m swimming in myself.

Look at the difference in beef between your avi and recent.... Your arms are 2x the mass
Oh, I realized after week three that there was no going back. In a way, I’m fortunate that my natural test levels were utter dogshit and that I spent a year on TRT before going in. Got multiple waves of noobie gains.
Now I just have to decide if I want to roll with Deca or Tren for my next round. I know I’ll want a 19-nor, and really, everything varies so damned much by the individual that I’m gonna have to eventually play with everything before I find favorites.
I wouldn’t go quite that far, though there’s clear measurable improvement. Last March, left was 14.75 and right was 14.5. Just checked again for shits and grins, and they’re both right in between 15.75 and 16.
Not bad considering that I do almost no extra arm work, outside of the occasional set of barbell curls to see what I can hit with an empty bar and zero cheat. Given the stupid amounts of rows, pullups, etc. that I do, I never saw the point.
Ok so now I am obsessed with making my bi's bigger and with a larger peak. Here is what I found yesterday. I warmed up my poor old shoulders and stretched out my sore chest from the day before (new personal best 350 flat bench for 6 unassisted) then hit arms. For bi's I started with ez curl bar preacher curl bench. Warm up set 25 pound plates, added 10's and did two sets of 12 reps cheating on the last couple and doing the negative slowly, added two more 10's and did two sets of 8-9 again cheating a bit on the last couple and doing the negative slowly. Found a guy to help, dropped two 10's and did a set to failure, instantly dropped two more 10's and went to failure again.
Ok so now time for some one arm concentration curls. Set-up an incline bench on a step incline, grabbed a 25 pound dumbbell and threw one arm over the top. Did 3 sets with 25 then dropped to 20's and did 2 more sets.
What I found was, when I started doing the ez curl bar preachers I could concentrate and squeeze the muscle (Bi) at the top. But the more I did the more the bi filled with blood and the harder it was to squeeze the bi good and tight at the top. Overall felt good!
Regardless you want to squeeze at the top
Whether and at which pointyour wrist is supinated, neutral, or even pronated will dictate which head of the bicep (and part of the forearm) you are targeting.
A supinated grip throughout will target the inner part of the bicep giving more of a wide boulder look, a neutral grip will target the (long head?) Giving more of a bigger peak look. I would not just do one vs the other. I like to break it up into regular supinated dumbbell curls and hammer curls. Occasionally throw in some preacher curls because the peak resistance is further towards the bottom. Reverse curls to target the forearm if I am not doing iso wrist movements in my routine. There are 1000 ways to go, figure out your weak points and throw in the corresponding movement
