Personal Statistics:
Age 56
Height 5'6"
Weight 217/220 lbs (approx 100kgs)
History:
Always lifted weights since school, played contact sports & martial arts to a high level (rugby, jiu-jitsu), but despite keeping a general level of fitness I have never had the conviction or level of commitment that I have now.
Realised earlier this year just how low my T levels had fallen, simply due to natural ageing. Obvious symptoms included: gym progress had stalled and I was unable to increase either personal bests or grow muscle any more (this was over approx 1 year), cortisol belly was growing despite strict intermittent fasting, libido all but gone with zero desire, low mood with borderline depression....etc, etc.
March this year (2025) I was introduced to Sustanon 300 by a good friend & experienced bodybuilder. This has been life-changing.

Cycle 1:
2 weeks Sus300 x 1ml per week = 300mg
Cycle 2:
2 weeks Sus300 twice a week x 1ml (2ml total/week = 600mg)
Cycle 3:
4 weeks Sus300 2x 1ml (total 600mg), stacked with Dianabol 40mg/day, and Proviron 50mg/day.
Cycle 4 = Current cycle (started this week):
Testosterone T400 x 1ml with Proviron 50mg/day.

Side Effects:
Sus300 - only positive. Mood, libido, wellbeing, energy, strength, all incredible. Felt 20 years younger.
Dianabol - positive: increased gym strength, obvious increase in muscle mass, rapid weight gain. Negative: greasy skin, massive fatigue in week 3 & 4, and blood pressure becoming excessively high in week 4. Was glad to come off Dianabol - intended to do 6 weeks but had enough of negative SA's by week 4.

Strength Gains over 9 weeks:
 Bench press - previous PB was 1x 100kgs, now = 3-4 reps @120 kgs.
Leg Press - previous PB was 6x 140kgs, now = 8 reps @200kgs.

Training routine since March 2025:
Monday: Chest and abs.
Bench Press: 10-12 reps warm up set, then 4-6 reps HIIT (90% max weight) or rest-pause at max weight.
Dumbell Fly: 4 sets, each set at a different/higher incline, using 90% max weight). 8 reps per set or to failure.
Dips: 2 or 3 sets at 6-10 reps depending on intensity of Bench & Fly work.
ABS: leg raises, crunches, plank etc - depending on energy levels after chest.
Tuesday: Legs = leg press, 4 or 5 sets, 10-15 reps, increasing weight until reaching PB or failure at last set. Then leg extensions for 2 or 3 sets, depending on intensity of leg press and energy levels.
Wednesday: Back & Biceps - seated rows, warm up set then 4-6 reps at heavy/max weight to failure. Then pull-downs with straight bar, 1 set heavy weight, 6-8 reps or to failure. Changing position to close grip for bicep pull-downs for 2 sets or to failure.
Thursday: Shoulders and Triceps. Dumbell press 2-3 heavy sets, 6-8 reps each or failure. Side and front dumbell raises, 2 or 3 sets depending on energy levels from presses. Triceps = 2 or 3 sets, pull downs, horizontal bar. Ab work repeated from earlier in week if time allows.

Food/Nutrition:
Don't count calories but I do ensure 100mg/150mg daily protein from meat, diary, protein shakes, additional protein bars etc.
Creatine 5mg.
Turmeric 1000mg.
Zinc, magnesium, copper, B12.
Cod liver/fish oil tablets.

@RetroNicSmythe I think you're doing a great job with that amount of protein you don't need as much as people think. I like your training routine as well. As others have said, very disciplined training and you're taking time to work your core and doing High repetitions and high-intensity training as well. Nice mixture

HUGE strength gains in 9 weeks!

Thank you. I didn't know what to expect from the Test cycles, but a big part is probably increased confidence and conviction. Probably pushing myself way harder than I thought I was capable of. I sincerely appreciate the kind response.
