Dumbass Off season 2.0

[thebiggestdumbass]

Let’s try this again

Classic physique competitor, trying to add some tissue to be competitive at USAs 2026. Coach thinks I have the structure to be competitive with the right size but I’d be happy placing <16 and my pipe dream of top 10

Training split is chest and back/ shoulders and arms/legs 4x a week. Progressive volume, starts at 1 set per movement and increases one set every two weeks. 7th week is a deload then back to 1 set per movement. First movement of a muscle is a warm up the other movements are taken to failure

Diets pretty standard: training day and non training day diet, with 3 skipload meals on Sunday currently

Gear: test, npp, DHB, GH, preworkout insulin, t4 and adex

Yesterdays chest and back
3 sets per movement
Arsenal plate loaded incline fly
Prime flat press
Arsenal incline oress
Arsenal flat press
Cable high row
Medium Mag grip pulldown
Arsenal lat pulldown
Seated cable mid back rows
Kelso shrugs

No sir. We subbed it out for DHB and I think this was the better option.

Well sleep was much better last night. Figured out I was going hypo in the middle of the night due to berberine and the pre workout insulin. Insane amounts of sweat and peeing 5+ times. Dropped the berberine after talking with @Oakley6575 and slept like a rock all night. Since I’m using Dihydroberberine, I’ll probably take 2-3 pills in the AM to cover everything before the pre workout meal

Sleeps always an issue for me in the off season so I have some 5 HTP on the way to see if that helps
