    if so. what I mean is that all I'm doing it taking my Tren base from the vial, my Test base from the vial, my Winstrol, and my Anadrol, and simply drawing it all up into a 3cc syringe and then dropping the plunger on that all into my lat.
    I'm not worried about any 'homogenous' anything just as long as it all gets in the muscle
    I was talking about the uGL however you prompted my thinking... they do not just take a little of this, and a little of that.
    I am sure that it is all one big batch made together. I made a batch by a little of this and a little of that in a vial a long time ago. Serum levels were probably all over due to not being homogeneous.
    I do the same thing you do.

    sure theres a time and a place for traditional bro splits. like me being on one now. or again for guys that are super strong.

    heres what I say in another post to clarify
    you'd likely be better off doing body parts 2x per week rather then 1x per week anyways

    'bro splits' where you only hit one body part per week are generally best suited for beasts that are super strong and big to begin with.
    they create enough homeostatic stress and volume in one workout to require a whole week of rest for that body part. . your average 200 pound guy benching 275 does not.

    think about it. a 250 pound beast trains chest. lets say he does bench press for 405 for 5 sets of 12, then on to incline dumbbell press hitting the 150s for 5 sets of 15.
    well volume = sets X reps X weight moved. so go ahead and tally up how much volume this guy has already pushed and he's only two exercises in.
    [his total volume is going to be 3 times that of your average gym rat . just because the weight he is pushing for reps alone]

    again this guy is creating a ton of homeostatic stress in a single workout. he's going to need a whole week for his chest to recover. . but you and me are not near this strong. we can't push that weight and volume. our chest will be ready to go in just a few days.

    thats why higher frequency works better for the majority of people. we are not near strong enough to accumulate enough volume in one workout to require a whole week for that body part to recover. we'll do better hitting it again in a few days
    Good point! I actually remember reading another of your posts about training and about your logic on that specifically. Thanks

    An additional thought to consider... From an older guy.... Keep an eye on what you're really working. Most compound exercises work secondary muscles as well. For example, if I tried to do back twice a week, and chest twice, and then arms twice a week... I'd be working my biceps and triceps (directly and indirectly) 4 times a week. My old-ass tendons would be toast.

    Weather you're doing the bro-split, or twice/weekly, or whatever else, effective programming is essential.

    I like the synergy of supersets with bis and tris. I know that I should probably change up, but nothing else compares.

    as a personal trainer I have a pretty good idea about exercise selection and how to hit muscle groups to try and get them to grow.
    however, I CANNOT get my own chest to grow worth a shit. its my weakest body part. it has no size and fullness at all.

    I've tried plenty of different training techniques.

    so the next step possibly. I'm going to start injecting all my bases and suspensions (test suspension, tren suspension, winstrol) for preworkout strictly into my upper chest. I'm also thinking of using Hyaluronic acid to try and fill out the chest and help with some fullness/size.

    anyhow, what are your guys thoughts on running short ester gear and SEO into my upper chest to try and develop some fullness ?

    I inject upper high straight above the nipple with short esters and get the least pain there but that may not be what you want and may want to move near insertion points on the inside.

    It seems most localized growth i get is in daily or eod pinning closer to insertions.
    Biceps seem to work best toward the top and bottom extremities anyway. No science, only observation and what I feel.
    Your chest looks great btw.

    First off, your chest looks great. If I were to see how to make it better, I would probably work it by itself. I am by no means at your level, but try the following:
    Incline press- bar to the bone at the bottom of the neck SUPERSET with incline flues
    Bench superset with pec dec
    Incline dB press- db’s touching ( it also works tris.) superset push up
    Pulley chest cross superset dips
    Try the reps 15,12,10,8 and increasing the weight. Pushups and dips should be hard enough and use reps to get the pump.

    You need to show us your calves first. You do not understand ho thick your traps are.
    I am trying to make the ultimate BB.
    Obs traps, Sil’s wide back, Rads abs, and Kelkels legs. Still missing body parts that I will get.

    I am happy on the progress with my hams however I need wider quads. Open for advice.
    I am going to try and do leg exercises with a close stance thinking that maybe the sweep will help.

    it seems like now days , if you compete in open bodybuilding , you can never have enough legs (unless your big Ramy). so Legs are something that can always use more size. where back in the day too big of legs was not aesthetic. so I'd say yeah, keep focusing on that outer sweep and getting more 'X' frame status

    I think my structure and small joints help. but think I need about 15+ pounds of more actual muscle on my frame (and thats just to maybe one day fit in the classic physique division is all)

    of course we are never ever big enough . I watched an interview with Roelly Winkler today on MD . he said he looks in the mirror and thinks he's too small . lol, he was the most muscled guy on the Olympia stage !!

    I agree. The pump from doing supersets with arms is awesome. I started with an upper/lower/off split. I have started doing a push/pull/legs split and I like it so far. I just have to stick with it for more than a few weeks...I get impatient lol

    You got that right. The way to counteract the “not big enough”, is to evaluate yourself year after year. Try and make new “versions” of your physique. Go into the year with specific improvements.

    I can't speak to pinning in the chest
    But a prayer press with a dumbbell helped me a lot w my chest development.
    Fat grips help since you're only using your palms to hold it up.
    A lot of people do it w plates. It's hard to get enough weight and ROM w those.
    Squeeze at the top, get a great contraction mid chest, hard to achieve w any other exercise.

    Pic of how to hold dumbbell attached (DB professionally represented by a dry erase marker)
    I like to keep elbows about 45° from body.
    Then your just press it off your chest and squeeze at the top, repeat

    going to give these a try today . I have done something similar in the past but with using two dumbbells pressed together tight rather then a single dumbbell . the two dumbbells kinda make your chest have to contract the whole time just to keep the two dumbbells pressed together.
    but I'll give the dingle dumbbell a try as well.

    I'm open to any new exercises at this point. my shoulders always want to take over my chest exercises. not just front delts, even my rear delts end up getting more pumped and worked from a set of cable flies then my damn chest does. its weird. my shoulders will get so pumped up and painful I can barely finish a Chest workout.

    thats partially why I was thinking of trying hyaluronic acid in the pecs. its supposedly really helps facilitate a strong pump and muscle connection with the muscle you inject it in.

    so it has been confirmed..

    Stenbolone will be ran at the very end of this current cycle. 500mg per week for 6 weeks.

    I may just consider that part of my 'cruise' if I run it solo

    Please note everything about your demeanor, lifts, etc.
    I want to know if it gives the explosive effect I was told or if it was just a rep pushing his brand.

    yeah will do . thats also why its probably best to run it solo, or at the most with a very light compound

    well would be nice if it lives up to its hype, and even at that only 500mg per week. thats nothing and would sure be convenient, as I'm currently running like 300-400mg per day right now. thats why going on the Sten at only 500mg per week would be pretty much like a low dose cruse phase.

    well today was an awesome shoulder day.. but one big problem, it wasn't shoulder day it was chest day today damnit . so again I tried to isolate my chest, but my shoulders, especially my rear delts, just kept taking over.

    I even pinned some tren and some NPP in each pec yesterday hoping that a little bit of soreness would lead to a better mind muscle connection . but my damn shoulders got so pumped I could barely move my arms, let alone destroy my chest.

    I fought this until I stopped training shoulders for a couple months. It didnt matter what I did just walking in the gym blew my delts up.

    one thing I like about using insulin, is that if you take 10iu when you first wake up it gives you a valid excuse to break into the pumpkin pie first thing
