52 y/o Rebuild Cycle Log

[EnhancedAurelius]

(This post written on Mar 22, 2026 and has been reposted here to capture full journey)

So let down by cookie cutter TRT clinics I created a side mission.

I wanted to know why after 12 moths of TRT treatment I still had the fat around my guts but was doing everything they told me, however knowing what I know now that was they did the bare fucking minimum....

Side mission entailed diving into peptides and UGL PED's and so have with continuing the hard work (amping it up some) managed to get my body fat down to a decent level starting work in October last year.

So fast forward to now and been lurking around looking into the UGL scene and came across this page.

Looking at what he done thus far with the lads he's been training I feel I'm in great hands to begin the build on what I have started.

Okay Lads two weeks in and a little update on progress and feels of new regime as directed by the Master Coach R. AP.

Lean build is the objective and what a start!
Macros are;
Kcal 3245
Protien 209.2
Carbs 424g
Fat 61.5g

Coach had to tickle these up a little after first week as he works out what my basal metabolic rate needs are.

Food is fucking amazing and easy to prepare some sample photos below.

Wife finds it hilarious that I have never eaten some of these things before but taking coaches direction without question (who ever listens to their wife anyways??).

My energy levels have increased awesomely and pumps at the gym are better than ever before.

I have no joke had people notice the change in my disposition in a very short time so obviously coach is on point!!!

I honestly can’t believe the difference in two weeks and can’t wait to see what he has in store for me.

Thanks again coach for taking me on sir much respect for your attention to detail and follow ups in my program.

CHECK OUT THE BLOOD WORK RESULTS WHICH ARE BETTER THAN WHEN I WAS ON 175MG TEST ONLY TRT!

HAVING OVER TWICE THE ANABOLIC LOAD AND MY BLOODWORK IS BETTER! WTF?

Hey Guys,

We had a little Thailand trip interruption to the regime but you gotta live a little sometimes, right????

The plan was always to step it up a little as the bloodwork came back so clean so when we returned Coach said we can add in a 'little sprinkle' of NPP.

Anecdotally there are reports of joint support properties with NPP application so am looking forward to that, well my 52-year-old knees and hands will be!!!
