Feeling flat and tired, but discipline doesn’t care how I feel.

 

[Andrewgen_Receptors]

5mins cold plunge

Off day today.

Week 10 Check-in



Weight: 199.1lb (down .8 from last)

We've dropped 50g carbs daily and we're increasing gear to:
Test 450 (was 250)
Mast 500 (was 200)
Eq 300 (same)
+ ai

I thought we were hitting a stall considering it was 2 weeks in a row with less than 1lb lost, but day 2 of 150g carbs and I'm down another couple lbs. It was the right call to pull carbs.

Keeping on keeping on.

 

[Andrewgen_Receptors]

Cold plunge 3.5mins

My head is a thousand miles from the gym and my responsibilities, but it doesn't matter. I've got too much to do and people relying on me. It's time to be the man i need to be, not the one i am right now. Learning to master myself.

Normal gym was closed so i shamelessly trained in the outdoor crossfitters gym. At least it was only 92 out

It's much overdue but ive started practicing posing. I've got a lot to improve on... might start posting vids once i get more practice in. Need to find a way to easily keep my face blurred in video.

Leg press was out of commission and i was short on time. Honestly i just didn't want my legs totally ruined for this weekend.

More posing this morning. Found a dude who was posing Jon Jewett and followed him so i can lock in some of those tips.

Small vacation this weekend with the wife. Won't be on diet but I'll get my protein in and keep cals in range. Cardio PRs: imminent.

 

[Andrewgen_Receptors]

Got home Sunday from Seattle. Only saw 7 trannies in 48 hours, so it's less than expected.

Scale staying steady around 197, check ins moved to Friday.

Starting to look small man. Don't take that as a dis. That's exactly what should happen at this point. That means you are doing what you should be doing. Good for you for finally getting your shit together.

That being said, you're 11-12 weeks out at this point and you don't have abs yet. I'd think you are pretty far behind. Are you going to do this show regardless just to have the experience, or move to a different show if you aren't ready in time?

Thank you, I needed to pull it together and I cant say you didn't play a role in that.

I think the lighting may be playing a role here because I DO have abs, but the front-on lighting makes them hide. Still, I can't help but feel like I'm behind.

I haven't bought entry into the Oct 19th show so I can reschedule if needed.

Sounds really solid : )
how much var and winny ?

 

[Syntha Claus]

Have you considered buying an NPC card and entering, as well as paying for tanning to keep you from quitting?

 

[Andrewgen_Receptors]

50mg each daily assuming winny doesn't make my joints shit out on me

 

[Andrewgen_Receptors]

I've bought the card already, just not contest entry.

There's no tanning anywhere near me so I'm just doing old fashioned sunlight. I'll run MT2 and tan for the last month or two if needed.

I'm not quitting.

You're not going to apply tanner for the actual show day?

They will give you tanning information when you sign up for your contest

 

[Andrewgen_Receptors]

I might be misunderstanding terminology.

I'm going to use tanner for the show, but I think I'll need to tan on top of that as well. I'm white as fuck.

 

[Oakley6575]

Yes, that's a good idea, but I believe @Syntha Claus was telling you to pay for the card and for the tanning at the show so you are invested enough to follow through.

 

[Andrewgen_Receptors]

Y'all caught me on the hardest day I've had in months and honestly that's too much coincidence for me.

I'll think about it, thank you.

 

[US-pharmacies]

50mg each daily assuming winny doesn't make my joints shit out on me

"If I may suggest, go with option 2/3 – 20 mg of Winny with 30 mg of Oxa. Also, think about switching your testosterone ester to a fast one, because it will activate estrogen faster, which will help protect your joints a bit. You just need to dial in the dose properly, but I’m sure you already know what’s what. Cheers.

We're trying to add some volume to the sessions. Targetting 4x sets per exercise, 4x exercises per muscle, with lower intensity.
Working my way up to that volume.

That cold plunge will keep your skin thick before a show. Just like swimming.
