I actually like to scramble eggs and add in some airfryed sweet potatoes it's a great combo
@man05 correctJust enough weight drop so I can hit 50 reps , correct?
yogurt is fine, and you do have yogurt in natureHow’s this breakfast starter, 7 whole eggs, Canadian bacon and some green onions mixed in. I will follow up with rice cereal before I lift, should I just drink milk for 20-30 grams of protein?
I’ll eat chicken and rice in small amount with vegetables. Yogurt still okay, not sure I can eat that much chicken to hit 400 grams per day but I’ll give it a go. Is a single shake post workout of egg whites okay?

great udpateGood leg day today, left leg loos normal, lesson learned on bad jabs, haha.
As to Primo I can feel and see a difference, its not like Deca but it sort of feels like Deca in terms of fullness but I can see some details I couldn't see before on the nandrolone. I am definitely going to be a Primo fanboy. Anavar at 50mg is really nice, leaning out abdominally, not sure Ill get full separation but hey that's a goal for next time, you learn as you go and improve each time.
Weights just feel incredibly smooth, I threw in High reps on my calves and 2x50 to finish squats at 135lbs, felt incredible.

great update hereYesterday, was a tough day trying to eat so clean.. I can eat egss a few times per week but difficult for me to sit and eat 7-8 eggs. Chicken and sweet potatoes or a little rice is easy, egg white shakes are easy, I can reduce whey and use other things for flavor.
Macros today, totally sucked I felt full or bloated after trying to eat so much solids. On vacation I will have egg white (organic), ground turkey and sweet potatoes or yams, rice, lots of vegetables. Fresh fish, plenty of meat, going to try to keep fats 50 grams or so per day.

great updateSo todays workout is called the Vadim death blow, I thoroughly enjoyed pushing myself hard today with high reps, maybe too many high reps?
Should I do one day High reps and one day lower reps on the 2 day split I am on? My deltoids are getting separations, totally insane.
I had a small glass of pre workout that had some pananx ginseng, I know that helped but I feel like I am able to just grind the hell out a sets now, its really amazing, its fun and when It hurts I drive for 10 more reps ( good pain, not bad pain)
Here are the weights:
12/11/2023Flat BB bench 3x20/ 3x50 205lbs/ 135lbs sets of 50 3x) Incline DB bench 3x50 70lbs (35lbs each) Flat DB bench 3x50 130lbs(65each) Incline BB bench 3x50 135lbs Upright DB raise - supinated 3x50 10lbs each Dips 3x50 '+ 25lb plate Burnout press 1x50 135lbs Standing side deltoid raise w/ 15sec pause after rep 1 3x50 10lbs each Rear deltoid supinated raises 3x50 25lbs each Face Pull 3x20 20lbs each Front deltoid raises standing 3x50 10lbs each One arm dumbbell press 3x50 15lbs each Leg raises 4x25 in between sets Standing KB lean overs 4x25 53lb kb Upright leaning bends with KB 4x20 13lb kb

Egg white and whey shake. With half cup ground turkey and 1/4 cup of rice with some black beans, hot sauce and a pinch of cheddar cheese. Egg white shake with scoop of whey 8oz Grilled Chicken, 1/4 cup of white rice Yogurt Oikos pro brand
Tomorrow is a pull set, I will slightly reduce weights to hit some high rep sets specifically on Biceps and triceps. I can hit 50 reps no problem, just need to drop tri extension form 30lbs to 35lbs, is that cool? And I can do 30lb side hammer's no problem, and then do 25lb standing curls, I will crush 50 reps of 3 sets. On lats I can pull 70lbs 150 times no problem. Pullover I will need to drop to 65lbs to hit 50 reps on that.
Please let me know how this is looking and or sounding and I will make any an d all adjustments.
Thank you , each and every one of you.

They make long handled brushes for the hard to reach places I had to get one when I broke out on trenI have been experiencing small boil type zits that once emptied clear up quickly. I have some Accutane 10mg and was thinking every eod or possibly twice per week. I simply cannot reach middle of my back or back lower to try and wash better with a topical this is the only area that I have them in, my wife noticed and I simply told her it’s from a mixture of test and another medicine I have been taking. I have a pill splitter and can split them if necessary.
Thanks guys
I’ll head down to Walgreens.They make long handled brushes for the hard to reach places I had to get one when I broke out on tren

I am right about there with the majority of exercises, fine tuning a few still. Shoulders for me belong at the light end of the rack 10-15lbs and I'm getting some good definition from it. Right deltoids is back to normal now.The trick with lite weight is going just heavy enough that it's challenging while at the same time you can use proper repetition on every single rep and struggle to get the last few up on each set still utilizing good techniques.
Good pull session today, had to split it up and thought that would be easier but I ended up coming back stronger for the second half and shelled my arms. I could barely do my finals sets of 50 curls, crazy swollen
Was craving beef, burger to be honest so I splurged and had a good grass fed burger with the family.
Here are my meals today with the last two meals projections of what Ill eat later tonight.

Weights: These felt really good, I have dropped weights across the board but am making myself work with slight increases, the true value of the 5-50lb set is paying off for me. I have found the farmers walk really helps me with shrugs and forces me to keep my head up and shoudlers back, I use it as a warmup before I shrug. I was beyond spent for the zottman curls, may try to move up first with more weight, they work you pretty good.
Tomorrow is legs so I plan to hit that pretty strong and push good weight for 4 sets of 50 for back squats and possibly throw in some walking lunges as my finisher with just 26lb KB's.
I will update you guys tomorrow with leg sets and diet, have a few more days before we leave for vacation. Once I arrive I will have a gym to workout at, pretty excited about that. This has been a fantastic journey and learning experience for me.
Hope you guys have a great night, than you all for your help and feedback.

Thank you so much, those supinated upright chest squeezes are awesome and they kick my butt every set. Took some humility for me to go back lighter shoulders and I’m finding that my shoulder respond better to lighter weights. So much to learn and develop, this aspect alone keeps me humble enough to keep pushing. I’m going to shock you all in the future with my diet, Santa brought me a instapot and I’m going keep that bad boy full of chicken, rice, sweet potatoes and vegetables, no excuses and I’ll save the world a few egg whites while I’m at it.@man05 you're pretty good i like the tightness and spread you keep going with this and careful with shoulders
I really enjoy utilizing 15-20lb weights for alot of my movements for delts sometimes I go a little higher, the majority of my work and building is with those weights, I can get a great pump and really squeeze and hold with those weights forcing more time under tension.I am right about there with the majority of exercises, fine tuning a few still.

@man05 you're the truth right thereTodays leg set went well, felt strong and did extra sets of squats. I am making it a 2024 goal to master the front squat, after this cut cycle. Already I can tell the form pulls my spin more upright and its easier to set into that 90 degree chair squat position for back squats. One of my favorite exercises I have learned.
Meals today were a little interesting but I'm leaning to like fried eggs, have a Instapot to eat chicken 24/7 with rice now or sweet potatoes, hell my diet should look acceptable and pleasing to many of you and my body will thank me for that.

Starting this Tuesday my updates may be a day behind, I will be doing them off my phone with excel. We leave at 3am Central to fly to Dallas then to Kihei on the island of Maui.
Tomorrow is my off day so I can rest up for a strong chest and shoulder session on Monday, may miss Tuesday lifting since I will be travelling 11 hours so I will post Legs' on Wednesday.
Hope your all staying warm and doing well, thank you all for the help and daily counsel.

@man05 waiting on you to push moreGot in a good push session today, I was really getting a good feeling for what I believe is mind body connection with the reps. Like Topps said earlier about the time in motion of the exercise ( I mis worded this) I was really getting a great feeling with the incline bench reps and the last two sets of the DB flat bench, its like your in a loop and you don't want to push to far up or to far down and keeping the constant pressure somewhat in the middle, makes no sense so bear with my free association. I am really enjoying Primo, wow its amazing and ive found ventro gluteal the best location with no pip using a 23guage 1.5", I am also using 200 mg/ml Test so I can dilute the primo concentrate a little more than the 250mg allows me to. Will I be able to go 10 weeks on the primo to finish the cut cycle?

Kihei, MauiBros Where are you traveling to hopefully the weather cooperates
I’m on it, I join gym for two weeks tomorrow.make sure you are stressing out your muscles and pushing yourself a little bit more starting next week
I agree, the green beans made me feel really good.yes I think you need more vegetables in your diet
Awesome, I’m going to do this on tomorrow’s pull session, I have a feeling this is gonna kick my butt really nicely. So I will add a five second contraction and squeeze to each movement and I’d expect to need to drop a little weight.Mobster brings up an excellent point, offen times u see guys go high rep but do it quickly to bang the reps and sets out, the real test for your muscle endurance would be to repeat this same workout but slow the reps way down squeeze and hold with a 5 second pause oh each rep see if your sets and reps stay the same or decrease.
@man05 pull hard and squeeze lets do itAwesome, I’m going to do this on tomorrow’s pull session, I have a feeling this is gonna kick my butt really nicely. So I will add a five second contraction and squeeze to each movement and I’d expect to need to drop a little weight.
Thank you. For this awesome advice!!
good workTodays Push routine went well, I am adjusting to lighter weight and higher reps, I would like to increase the weight a bit though.

Tomorrow is pull set #2, should feel a little better now that my strained deltoid is feeling better. I have found lighter weights best for me doing high rep deltoid work.
Thanks for all the input guys, will post again tomorrow.
Good night

Trying to keep good form and fatigue the muscle during this cut cycle. I may push a little heavier in a few weeks.are you planning on increasing the strength that you're lifting
I felt it way more pacing the reps, first set were stronger but as I fatigued the weights on other sets dropped some, it was a great session. Looking forward to legs and I think ill need to drop some weight to move with that 5 second pause at the bottom of the squatsYou will 'feel' it more if you slow down reps
I feel like a puss for not being able to drive the heavy weight like this. If this is the best way to lift for bulk, strength, cut COUNT ME IN 110% This is phenomenal technique, my quads are so huge doing this. I can move my skin on quads and see muscle striations and veins it’s awesome. I cannot wait to do chest and shoulders tomorrow.That is awesome man. Those slow, controlled reps are very effective.
I think I found the holy grail for primo. 1.5” 23’s, zero pip on past three pins, nothing not pain at all.@man05 add walnuts to that, cashews not a great nut
you need a higher Omega 3 : 6 ratio
he means a few higher volume sets for fat loss
yea 22 always quicker than 25 on the pins, try 23 to start off
@man05 solid for sure on the legsHere is todays update, I hit legs pretty solid today, slowed down the reps, good form on the squats to 90 degrees, heels on some dimes to isolate, 4th set I was spitting on the mirror in front of me and set five I was dripping sweat everywhere, humidity, extra effort, slow reps = hard work= fun!
Todays meals are as follows, I projected the last two meals.
Todays weights are also attached, slowing it all down keeps you honest and tells me I. Red to train smarter going forward versus simply moving more weight with less stamina. I have some goals for this year as a result of the new method of lifting.
I will update tomorrow with chest workout, going to push hard and I’ll adjust weights as necessary.
Hope you guys have a great night

thats perfect sizeI think I found the holy grail for primo. 1.5” 23’s, zero pip on past three pins, nothing not pain at all.
