dcDogz very normal log

weight 189 as well.

water buffalo season has started!! lol

gonna have to get used to these numbers, not seeing anything close to the 185s i was hitting just last 12-14 days ago.

looking in the mirror I dont see anything too different and I dont particularly feel bloated or anything so alls well i guess.

like ketchup said
seems like i had a slight jump almost immediately. usually my weight comes down a tad end of week well see how goes as things progress and stabalize.

pretty excited for the next few weeks of check ins.

I feel really good and strong as well.

bjj tomorrow!

Yup. Started my off-season cycle 13 days ago using same the compounds with no initial calorie increase. Weight up 5lbs and now stabilizing. Considering their both enanthates, that time-table is true to form. 2 weeks in you are mostly saturated with the compounds.

Enjoy the extra strength and fullness!
 
weight 189 WE HOLD THE LINE
Holding Hold The Line GIF



oh man feeling so great. got 6.5 last night, woke up and didnt even have to check sleep app great sleep.

really good ham day, feeling super strong. took it a little easy on sldls, shits getting heavier so have to play between the reps and the weight.
mostly focus on getting a good stretch and stop once i feel like backs about to give out, even tho im leaving a ton of reps in the tank. have to toe that fine line between activation, pushing it, and keeping back healthy.


everything else was money, im feeling soo much stronger but just gonna progressive overload by 2.5 / 5lb increments.

great bjj session as well, we did spider guard :cautious: jesus christ. after doing sldls, and reverse lunges, you can imagine how FUCKED my grip was lol.
my hands were pride month for sure 🫳 couldnt grip nothing after awhile lol. forearms should grow with this kinda work I imagine lol.



abductors

140 x 19
150 x 13
up 10

seated leg curls
180 x 16
180 x 14
up reps both sets



smith squats

sldls

60 x 14
65 x 12
70 x 13

left alot of reps on the table probably 7 or more honestly. but it is what it is some volume better then NO volume.

lying curls

110 x 14
120 x 6 -> 110 x 4
tried to increase weight but it was just too heavy, went back down to get a few more reps.
hams were more tired/fatigued then i anticipated.


leg press wide and high
385 x 25
420 x 25
up 5 and reps
db reverse lunge

50 x 18
55 x 16
same weight same reps

leg press calves

225 x 20
225 x 20
230 x 18
235 x 18
up 5 lbs and reps last 2 sets

felt ridiculously strong honestly besides lying leg curls i would say this workout felt really easy despite me going as high as possible on reps and pushing it pretty far.
trying to play it a little safe since I felt just TOO strong. probably a combo of test/primo/carbs/sleep making me feel just really damn good today.


meals today pretty much the same. no surprises.

weight 189 again, HOLDING PATTERN REACHED.
i think the fact im not adding too much water right now is good and holding personally. have to discuss with coach at checkin. ill be up a lb or 2 for check ins.
I dont think the primo and test could already be working could it? i felt like i looked fckin insane today. im pretty shy bashful person but man I kept looking at myself in the mirrors today, i felt like I just looked ridiculous. for me and my standards anyway. still see my fat self sometimes in the mirror.

enough of my mental illnesses, on to weight discussion...lol

well maybe i hit my shit harder then I thought, my quads are cramping and my hamstrings are sore!

today felt simlar on chest. I hit it hard, now that incline machine press is in rotation and im banging the living hell outta it, my flat db and seated machine flys are suffering a tad.

all in all super good work bjj after was great as well feel good. we had a light today which was very much needed. still good cardio on my rolls just nobody really going for the kill to hard.

sleep
really good, app says only 4.5 but theres no way. its off for sure. based on my guestimates minimum 5.5 but probably 6 -6.25 woke up feeling GREAT!

This is exactly why we didn't raise calories the first week. Get the weight to stabilize from the initial water retention while drugs building up in the system. You're about 30-40% saturated with the test and primo as they are both enanthates. It will start to feel very noticeable around days 10-14.

And you can have a bagel. Just not 3 a day. lol

Hey brother... hope I didn't mislead along the line... I've been doing TRT at 150wk. I dropped it from the 200+ when my bicep ruptured. The blast is coming real soon... mb next week. Just did routine blood this morning and am doing Test and Estrogen this afternoon.

1730481500617.png
 
rest day! upper back so toasted!

also checkins and we got some changes!

woke up and did 30 min incline walking cardio no tournaments or anything so keeping my steps up.
plus bjj was fairly light yesterday so gotta keep active.
NO FAT.

tomorrow? quads. we kill them. Dead done toast!
enjoy your last day on earth mother fuckers!


today we are getting a low carb day, i already started eating but i can adjust portions on stuff no problems.
this what we eating on rest day! same shit no surprises really just lowering carbs.
its nice in a way to eat less carbs, since it frees up some protein and fat so i get more protein from meat sources versus the carbs.

1730558365248.png
 
Holy shit i killed the quads bad. I was determined today full rom slow controlled nice squeeze every rep.


Man by my 3rd movement, leg extensions, I really didn't know how I was gonna finish the whole workout.

Was super screwed, quads were just so pumped and on the verge of cramping.

Mission accomplished! Sometimes God punishes you by giving you the things you want 😆.

I did well and progressed but hack squats I had to take it easy first 2 sets. Really thought my quads might tear. 3rd set rested a little longer in between and hit it good.
