Aimanabolic's Fatbody to Cockbody Journey

[aimanabolic]

LDL isn’t too bad, elevated liver enzymes are from the orals but they aren’t too bad either.

Growth hormone suppresses t4 so this is common. Gh will supress the thyroid from releasing t4.

I have some t3 25mcg on hand, was gonna order some t4 but not sure if I should even play with my thyroids yet. I'm completely novice on the subject.

 

[aimanabolic]

Fluoxy jacks liver values bad and quite immediately. You still running var currently?

Not last week, I drop all orals on deload week. Starting back up on Monday just PWO sublingual.

 

[JC33]

I wouldn’t worry about those liver values at all. Once I got my liver enzymes into the 200s from Winstrol at 100mg a day for 6 weeks and they returned to normal within 1 month. The liver recovers super fast. I’d keep a closer eye on kidneys as they do not recover.

Yeah my next bloodwork will be with my PCP, I'll be clear of all orals besides Anavar for that. I've had bloodwork with Anavar before and was in range.

 

[JC33]

Anavar will fuck your hdl but doesn’t hit your organs nearly as hard. It’s very forgiving there. Halo is like the second most toxic oral on the planet But it works . Depending on how you feel, a lot of guys supplement with t4 when taking gh to compensate for the thyroid suppression.

I was thinking about 25mcg T3 and 100mcg T4 but I'm open to suggestions.

It did lower my HDL

I always recommend starting with just t4 and let your body convert it. T3 can be extremely dangerous causing your heart to be dependent on it, arrhythmia thyroid is one of the most dangerous things to fuck with because if you do it wrong you can die. With t4 your body will convert it to t3 as it otherwise naturally would and you won’t run into a dangerous hyperthyroid situation.

 

[aimanabolic]

Results are still coming in so I'll post what I get on that.

 

[aimanabolic]

Any guesses on what my total test will be?

 

[JC33]

Honestly on such a low dose I would think between 750-1100 depending on your last pin. Everyone is different but on 140 mine would probably be 800-900

Daily pins before bed, depending on how close I am to 1100, I'll adjust dose now or after next PCP bloodwork.

 

[JC33]

Daily pins really are great for a constant stable level and no insanely high peak and low low. I should pull bloods on my 250 test just to see where I’m at too

I'm wondering what my IGF will show once they finish it. Next time I do IGF I'll pin 10IU subQ 3 hours before.

 

[aimanabolic]

After this Anavar is empty I'll most likely drop it altogether and up dosages on Masteron.

I might actually not take anymore right now

 

[aimanabolic]

Going with this the next 6 weeks, it would be optimal to put all the cardio in the AM fasted, but I prefer a lot of the equipment at my morning gym over my lunch hour gym.

Honest take: You are overthinking things to the point where it's becoming a hindrance. Mentally, physically and drug use. This happens with people in contest prep as well so don't take it as a bash. Step back and look at big picture.

• Hit your daily macros without excuse and make sure those macros aren't too low
• Cardio is cardio. Pick something and do it without excuse. Doesn't matter what type or when. People can suck it with the fasted bullshit being this amazing new breakthrough. Just do it.
• Setup a split we're you are getting enough frequency and intensity but with recovery. You don't need 2x daily lifting.
• Stop changing things every other week when you learn or hear something new from someone in here especially if they don't know what they are talking about.

It's that simple.

You would be surprised at how overanalyzing takes a stress toll and raises cortisol.

 

[aimanabolic]

@Meetketchup oh I definitely over analyze everything, something I'm working on.

As far as my training split, it's very similar to my previous meso, I just added some more arms and quads to the mix. Had to swap some stuff around that was bothering my elbows.

On cardio, I really never focused on cardio until recently. Was starting to sprinkle it in before the Clen challenge for cardiovascular health. No idea how "optimal" fasted vs not actually is, which is why I didn't completely move lifting to my lunch workout.

On the 2x daily, I enjoy it. I feel better at work when I workout before, and I don't have anything better to do with my lunch hour. The gym is literally my "safe space" only place that shuts the noise off in my head. Fighting my demons the only way I can figure out

Anyway much appreciated as usual with your critiques & advice. I'm not gonna lie, sometimes I want to make changes more often but I know I'm gonna post it and you may or may not ask, "why?" and if I can't make up a good enough answer in my head I leave it alone

 

[aimanabolic]

Posted on the Clen challenge thread as well, but here's my 5 week not so transformation

265.4 at initial weigh in, actually finally got a decent drop to 257.9 this morning.

Muscle fullness is more apparent in person (not just my opinion) most likely from running GH. I still contribute my weight stall on the water retention I got from GH but it's slowly correcting.

I have a doctors appointment Wednesday, I'm trying to swap from 160mg Valsartan to 80 or 160mg Telmisartan (with Hydrochlorothiazide)

Seems to be a whole list of reasons Telmisartan is better, but just like esters in AAS, I'll prefer the longer half life.

Off the top of my head Valsartan was 8-9 hour half-life and Telmisartan is 24. Blood pressure has been my only marker I've been trying to control before and during AAS use. However my high isn't that high, 150/90 at peak but average around 137/75 area.

I would prefer staying under 120/80 on average, been trying to reduce it with diet and exercise, surprisingly my blood psi didn't improve from dropping from 350 to where I am now, but I also started TRT at 350 so it could have offset the results.

I'll be dropping all orals for now, bumping Masteron E from 40mg to 60mg daily.

Adding in Selenium and Iodine supplements to help with the T4 as well as B Complex sublingual to help with my MCHC being low (from Omeprazole Rx most likely)

I suspect my LDL and ALT will correct with orals being dropped.

Good move! Also, props for wanting to get your blood pressure dialed in. So important.

Slow and steady wins the race. This is a marathon, not a sprint. I have NO DOUBT you will get to where you want to go. That appoach makes everything in your life better. Keep grindin'! Much respect!

 

[aimanabolic]

Test was lower than I thought it would be, thinking to bump up to 25-30mg per day.

To be expected from a trt dose. Not bad for 140mg. Most people need 200 mg to hit 1k

Well supposedly you get more for less with more frequent injections. Some gets lost to other hormones like Estradiol.

I'm gonna bump up to 30mg and retest in 5-6 weeks.

Trying to be right at 1100

You realize jumping the dose may lead to other or increased negative sides, right? You don't need to be over 1,000 at this point. You are cutting and will keep plenty of muscle on that.

You're right, I can just wait until after my next doctor bloodwork.

I have a doctors appointment Wednesday, I'm trying to swap from 160mg Valsartan to 80 or 160mg Telmisartan (with Hydrochlorothiazide)

I am on 10mg of Lisinopril for about 9 months. I have tracked it every week and it hasn't really done much to help. Before even being on TRT, I was around 145/90. Now on Lisinopril, I sit around 140-145/85-90. I am wondering how I can ask my doctor to considering trying Telmisartan instead of say upping Lisinopril dosage.
