haha not posting pics to any public forum for occupational reasons, and I have nothing to prove to anyone other than myself. Anyone here lives in SoCa I will meet you in person if it bothers you that bad. This has come up on here before about stats...How many of you guys have played or coached Division One football or been around NFL guys? Im not that big compared to D1 football players and NFL guys, and many throwers in track and field. Ive been 235 since I was 17 at this height and training since 12 years old consistent, and hitting high protein diet and supplements hard since about 13 or 14. Id have no problems buying one of you a cup of coffee if you live local to verify Im no midget or fat ass.
March '11 I was dunk tanked at 7.5% at 235 pounds while doing my regular HRT doses. Im not that low BF now, not watching diet as much and have more work and other life stressors that are priorities. Still hitting the weights hard, just not the conditioning for time being. Im not a bodybuilder like many of you on here. I do 4 full body workouts a week primarily based on olympic lifting and structural (ie "powerlifting" which really isnt power its strength) lifts in the rack. Due to injuries I do not push maximal weights, but I can easily throw up significant reps at decent numbers in cleans, deads, squats (back and front), and bench.
I love this website and forum, as well some other sites because Im a late in life AAS guy and want to learn from people who are experienced and know their shit like folks on here (which is why this is the top site I go to for learning about HRT and AAS). However most of the sites are bodybuilding based, and Im just guessing in general bodybuilders are not used to being around high level strength athletes because guys my size are a dime a dozen in college and pro football.

I see your point on not posting pics. I got the same problem.
So you were on HRT even before touching AAS?

Im assuming you are on TX so coffee isnt gonna be easy hah....I was in Dallas this summer, might be there next summer too if you are in that area.
Yes I was on HRT before I got the gonads to try AAS. Prior to that never needed them, daydreamed about them of course and super curious...but I was 230-245 and could clean, squat, and deadlift a house as long as I ate, supplemented, and lifted heavy.
Once I got on HRT, then I got ever more super curious...and then the more I read forums like this one to learn about HRT, since steroid folks seem to know more about hormones than most doctors, ah the bug bit I guess...Ive still been conservative though, and since size isnt an issue I doubt Ill try things beyond Primo, Mast, Var, EQ, Tren in tiny tiny doses, and other orals. If I want size for me its lift heavy barbells and eat meat, and lots of protein shakes....but getting leaned out and cut up is a different story! That forces me to do lots of conditioning, be stricter with carbs, calories, etc.

Burnt is obviously committed in every way -- hard raining , good diet, smart supps and the right approach to cycling. The man's got some serious mass.
I appreciate the kind words Nelson. I have much respect for your wealth of experience and knowledge. I'm as committed as my constant nagging shoulder issues let me be. I'm only apx 235 at around 17% right now so I'm trying to get back to where I used to be without being 20%.
What shoulder issues you got? Toss it out, Ive battled shoulder issues for 20 years....Ive put off and hopefully never will have the surgeries they say I need....I hear horror stories of guys getting cut and then things being worst in the weightroom or in their sports than before surgery.
I have detached ligaments, hooked clavicle, bankhart lesions on both front and backside from different dislocations (bjj and football). If I nag it, I could go for months not being able to lift hard, other stretches it feels great....I go close grip or closer grip on pressing for most part now, slower controlled temp on upper body stuff, get deep tissue work often, ice often, PVC roll the heck outta my upper body pre workout and in the mornings....
I feel ya...everything is different these days training due to old nagging injuries, aches, and pains...
Since you guys play nice Ill post a pic. I see too many pics on here being judged by definition of abs and guys throwing out BF%s. I routinely get dunk tanked, and I know where I pretty closely based on having BF measured for the past 20 years literally, first calipers for many years, but last 7 years I prefer bod pod or dunk tanked. That way there is no estimating. So yea, I do not have shredded abs, but I didnt even have shredded abs at 7.5% dunk tanked.

Ha. Me? Bad shoulder, bad knees, bad back, tendonitus in the forearm, arthritis in my hands, bursitis in my elbows, eroded disk in my neck...fuck it. Still gotta train. Work around it. Sometimes you just work what hurts the least. That's bodybuilding.
Ok...ok....lol you two got me beat. Going to get prolotherapy with TNE of all things (brand new technique) next monday. Infraspinnatus tendons on both sides keep hanging on to tendonosis. Sometimes they burn like hell. AC ligament and side delt top attachments on my right get inflamed for no apparent reason. Infraspinnatus muscle knots at a trigger point and refers pain to the front of my side delt.
Add a torn left acl and torn medial meniscus to that too.
P36 you got alot of serious mass bro. (shave bro!!) Funny you say PVC...im staring at my pvc roller right now. Also do deep tissue when I can. Prolotherapy and PRP injections.
