w3d5 push for open
was planning to eat out at work, then i didnt, so i ended up behind on protein and had to bank on whey. didnt hit my aux day cuz i was busy. oh well, its aux day anyway.

hit "arm day" but my hands were so fucked i couldnt do curls. i just hit skullcrushers, cuz i put the pressure on the side of my hand instead of the palm. ive skipped gh the past while and it hasnt helped at all. hands fuck to do anything and bad cts in bed. hopefully dialing in diet does something. added a lil hctz for now but not to much avail.

going to start eliminating some fluff. rep range should go down most sets except first and last. number of sets being reduced on most days where multiple movements hit the same part.
 
Your body is very aesthetic man.

Out of pure curiosity, did you ever figure out ways causing that imbalance with your back?

Why go Open first? You can always chase straight mass whenever you choose to down the road. Chasing size can (not will, but can) ruin aesthetics.

I believe you're a lot closer to being able to compete in classic than you think.

Do whatever makes you happy though bro. Just thought I'd offer my honest opinion.

We'll be rooting you on with whatever you pursue...

still havent fixed that imbalance no. for now im just slapping on size; a 24oz muscle and 26oz muscle look a lot more symmetrical than a 14oz muscle and a 16oz muscle.

bolan says mp and classic are oversaturated nowadays so open's actually a lot easier of a route than most people anticipate

its one of the better fast foods round here. really good fries too. just make sure u get nibblers or boneless wings if u ever go, not just stupid tenders. theirs are kinda fishy

I didn't think you fixed it. I think that'll take some time.

Did you figure out what's actually causing it though?

was wanting coca cola all day yesterday but didnt wanna leave my apartment so i got a large coke at bk and downed it twice.

the high of having the home gym is starting to wear down. i still love it, but i dont wanna spam out set after set just because its my stuff anymore. after a talk with strength coach @Oakley6575 ive decided to go back to my roots and cut volume and up intensity. i condensed delt day and chest day into this one day and knocked it out in 50ish minutes. my pecs and delts both felt great. good workout.

i'll be making some similar adjustments for my other workouts. first move is flipping wed arm day and tues forearm day, because i no longer do biceps on chest day i can hit them tues. and i use these cobra grips on thus back day so id prefer my forearms weak over biceps weak.

went home to the fam. didnt log all my macros. had my milk and a few meals.
w4d4 push for open
definitely didnt hit my protein this day, ate my fams home cooking. probably the first day this push i didnt hit my calories either
w4d5 push for open
dropped my keys in a pipe below my mailbox and ended up wasting the better part of the day. had my milk, likely hit my calories, unsure about protein.

didnt lift any of these days. 2 days were aux days anyway. so this weekend i'll hit arms and legs today then probably back tomorrow. my new landmine came in and its way better, my new leg extension came in and is insanely good quality; was only 100 bucks new too

going forward im just gunna track protein. i realized im getting more than enough calories no matter what
 
w4d6 push for open
protein: 298g

hit legs in the morning, arms in the evening. both went very well. my leg extension is great. i didnt even feel a need for a compound after how good my quads felt, but i did a couple sets anyway. decided to formally sub out my ez bar curls for the d handle curls.

i backed off the slin and gh a while ago and im atil getting fucked with cts :/ maybe i had a bad kit before and this ones fully dosed or something. idk
 
Valdosta said:
nah it was the day i added humalog in. even tho i stopped using it im still getting the cts. sometime in the middle of my third week after food increase
Click to expand...

So you’ve been off the GH for a bit over a week? I wonder how long it usually takes to abate after cts starts. The interwebs say a few weeks to months, but I wonder if that’s normal - sounds long if you only just got it and stopped pretty quick…

Same thing happened to me and it’s only been a week since I pulled it, after maybe three weeks with cts seeing if I’d get used to it (as lots of people do). But it got worse not better so I pulled the GH. We’ll see, but sounds like we’re on similar timing (prolly the only thing about us that’s similar looking at your progress lol)

Good luck bro. Hope it settles down quickly

it happened to me my first time trying gh at 4iu. had to drop it and wait close to a month. started it back up, same shit, same downtime, 3rd time it worked. cranked up to 6 eventually and had the same issue. dropped it once, waited, picked it back up, good to go second attempt.
