Nice bro!

I was similar spot couple years ago . Similar height. 110kg , family man, on and off!

But I didn’t have to deal with being hospitalised sorry to hear bro.

But glad you are here and putting your foot on the gas now!

 

[Jardy1]

Thanks bro.
Yeah it was horrible.. hated every second of it

Putting the gas on I am! Time to get my dream body

 

[Trenhead3cc]

What gear you running ? And is you coach online or a local to you ?

 

[Jardy1]

Just Test E currently.
Just got my bloods back. Everything looks great except for my E2 being 457. So currently trying to work out what to use to bring it town.

Yeah an online coach. But also have access to to a local coach.

 

[Trenhead3cc]

That’s pretty high with 250 per week with daily injections , But you will find a part reason of that is your body fat percentage.

I would use Aromasin. Raptor has it in 12.5mg tablets.

Check out their website and use my discount code.

Daily Reflection


Today felt like a step back towards normal after being unwell.


I wasn’t firing on all cylinders, but I showed up where it mattered. I got my meals in, kept up with hydration, stayed active, and prepared myself and the family for the week ahead.


One thing I noticed today was that my appetite still hasn’t fully returned. Rather than forcing food or wasting it, I adjusted my lunch portion by reducing it by around 20%. It felt like the right decision for where my body is currently at.


The biggest takeaway from today is that consistency doesn’t always look exciting. Sometimes it looks like meal prepping, cleaning the house, and making life easier for the people you care about.





Activity


Steps: 9,500 / 10,000 goal


I fell just short of my target, missing it by only 500 steps.


After being unwell yesterday, this was a strong effort and a positive sign that things are improving.





Recovery


Sleep: 6 hours


Not ideal, but enough to get through the day.


Something to continue working on, especially while recovering and balancing family life.





Hydration


Water Intake: 5L


Hydration remains one of the habits I’ve been consistently hitting throughout this challenge.





Nutrition


Although my appetite is still reduced, I managed to eat all of my planned meals today.


Adjustments Made:

• Reduced lunch portion by approximately 20% to avoid wasting food while appetite remains low.

Rather than abandoning the plan altogether, I adapted it to suit how I was feeling.





Training


I had soccer planned for tonight, but the game time was changed only a few hours before kick-off due to scheduling issues.


Instead of calling it a missed opportunity, I adapted.


Tonight’s Plan:


PT Session


This also helps make up for the PT session I missed while I was unwell.





Family & Home


While the family went out for dinner, I used the quiet time productively.


Accomplishments:

• Meal prepped all of my food.
• Cleaned the house.
• Mopped the floors.
• Set things up to make the week easier for my partner.

With our 2-year-old heading back to daycare for the rest of the week, it felt good knowing that one less thing would be on my partner’s plate.





Daily Win


I adapted instead of making excuses.


Soccer changed.


My appetite was down.


I was still recovering from being sick.


Despite all of that, I:

• Ate all my meals.
• Organised the week ahead.
• Stayed active.
• Prioritised my family.
• Found an alternative way to train.

Those small decisions are what build long-term success.





Tomorrow’s Focus

• Hit the full 10,000-step goal.
• Continue listening to hunger cues while prioritising protein.
• Focus on quality sleep.
• Build momentum heading further into Week 7.

Final Thoughts


“The people who succeed aren’t the ones who never face setbacks. They’re the ones who keep adjusting the sails instead of abandoning the ship.”



Some of my meals attached.
Snack, lunch, and pre workout meal

[Trenhead3cc]

You can record your workouts if you want

Yeah I can surely do that. I wasn’t to sure if it would help me if I do or not

 

[Trenhead3cc]

I been logging more on the sister site Evo
But I like it to track the strength when looking back how much I have improved. Also if you do a workout and record someone sees something to add to tweak.

What if I’m camera shy in regards to that?
My PT is trying to get me to but don’t have the guts for it
