Ckmeter Road to Pro with STADA LABS 🔥— USA Prep Log

[Ckmeter]

Back day last night. Trained with my gf for the first time in awhile. She really pushed me hard, and training together forced me to be extra strict on form to set an example. I’m sore as hell. —

I’d say that was a solid rebound bro. Good shit!! I’m sure your body is ready for this cruise

Thank you man. I’m about 22lbs heavier compared to last year’s weight almost to the week — one week into trt, except my condition is substantially better.

This was an incredibly productive rebound. I believe if you are capable of treating a rebound like a prep, and your body is healthy enough to tolerate pushing drugs to a degree post show, it is the absolute best time to grow.

I will be entering this phase pretty soon. Still got a fairly decent amount of fat to get off to be “stage lean” not doing a show just yet but want to have the most productive growth phase possible. So watching your journey has been inspiring! I’m ready to put on some mass!

For consistent lighting and background comparison, this was the start of week 3 of trt.

Mind you, last trt I still had deca in my system as well, so it hadn’t cleared yet. Just mind blowing to look back. Trust the fucking plan. And I cannot thank @Mr. Stellar and @StellarLabs enough — the quality of
this gear cannot be understated. The proof is in the pudding

Crazy man! Good work all of this last year. It's inspiring to see someone as dedicated as you to this. And the progress shows. You've put on more muscle this last year than some of the gurus on this site have in the past 20 years. You should be giving more advice around here.

This means more than you know. Thank you brother.

Looking at the old pictures honestly kind of disgusts me. I’ve given this everything, and I can’t wait to see the next year of progress!

How’s the pec holding up bro?

How’s the pec holding up bro?

It’s honestly fine. I’m not training as heavy. Deformity is kinda bad.

Still waiting on mri. Appointment was Thursday, and they made me wait over an hour and a half after my scheduled time and told me it would be another 30-40 mins, so I left lol. Hopefully will reschedule in the next week or so.

My coach suggested stem cells, so I’m exploring that option as an alternative if surgery is recommended.

I’ve been looking at stem cells possibly as well particularly been researching muse stem cells I think they are called

MSCs umbilical stem cells. I have a doc here who does them under the table. Shit is kinda sketchy. Most go to South America or Mexico. Kinda scares me wondering where they come from lol.

Results look super promising. I was quoted roughly 4-4.5k for stem cells with exosomes locally.

 

[Bigjape34]

That’s not bad you’ll have to DM me the location haha I’ll take a trip if it works for ya

Full transparency post. This week was shit. Got the worst food poisoning I’ve had in awhile Tuesday night from bad scallops I ate instead of chicken breast. So much for being bougie. $36/lb at Whole Foods apparently doesn’t mean shit.

I have been using kratom/mitragynine extract products pretty consistently since February/March. On prep it got pretty heavy. Recently, I’ve been down to one to two Kratom extract drinks per day. To clarify, I do not use 7-OH, just mit. I quit after my last prep last year and had zero issues, so I figured this would be the same. My last drink was Saturday morning. The only “withdrawal” symptom I have is the worst diarrhea of my fucking life.

On the bright side, I’m dry as shit. So…this week was shitty. Literally.

Thanks my man. Honestly, embrace the lows and the highs. If you only celebrate the highs, you lose perspective.

I also like to make jokes about the shit we go through, as the reality is, we have it pretty damn good.

Try to tell this to everyone being able to do what we do is a privilege and any day there better than bad is good

Ain’t that the truth. Every day healthy is a blessing, let alone getting to live the life we choose and love.
