Swapped out one of my rest days this week for Friday. I got blood work on Saturday and don’t wanna fuck the numbers up. @Nood I chose to stay with my current blood work. The panel you have doesn’t test igf1, id like to see where mine is at now since it was on the lower side last time I tested.

May or may not be getting a hernia. Not rlly sure. I got a small buldge down around my groin that is viable and and can also feel it , And then it goes away lol so idk wtf goin on with that. What ever it is is playing peekaboo. Last night it woke me up in my sleep it was pretty uncomfortable. This morning it was gone. Then came back during my leg raises. I’ll just be keeping an eye on it. It’s about an 1 1/2 above my pecker. Maybe I’m growing a 3rd nut

@Meetketchup I got some videos coming to u after training tomorrow to check my form with the new training style for back

 

[Meetketchup]

New training style?

If you think you may have a hernia get it checked out ASAP. The quicker you take care of them, the better.

 

[Nood]

Sure sounds like a hernia bro. Might want to get it taken care of before you start trying to out size on.
I have no room to speak, umbilical hernia for a year and a half lol. Doesn’t bother me and can barely notice it

I’m ganna give it a little bit. I’ve had this happen before then it just goes away.

 

[TommyJam]

I see you are getting your IGF tested and you mentioned recently that it had been a bit low in the past and you are thinking about starting some GH. Bro, go for it, you will not regret it if you do.

It would be nice to utilize it for sure. We’re introducing some PED’s in a few weeks maybe I’ll add some in with whatever we decide on

Starting to get hungrier. Eating has ignited the fire again in my big old belly

Decided to stay away from hanging leg raises for now since that puts a ton of stress on the groin area. I’ll see how I feel for leg day tomorrow but may be dropping the weight a little to keep the stress off my groin. I’m hoping resting it a little will close the tear up. Like I said yesterday I’ve had these pop up before and go away but this one seems to be a little different. Fingers crossed

Enjoy the extra carbs! Forgot to mention keep most of them around your workouts or earlier in the day for now. I like to introduce them this way for the first week or two.

GO BIRDS!!

Legs are smoked. Only thing I went easy on were the adductors today. I probably should have for everything else but fuck it lol

I got a nice day of eating. Some burgers and sweet potatoes for dinner tonight !!!! Woot woot. Haven’t had a burger in ages it feels like lol can’t fucking wait.

Got some of my blood work back already. Shits looking good so far. My liver enzymes are JUST above range. Like by 6-10points. Not worried about that at all. It’s probably got to do with what ever is going on with my groin. Still waiting on a lot to come back but what I have so far looks great

Shoot me over copies of the blood work. Liver enzymes are often elevated in guys that lift regardless. Especially after a long cut and intense training.

Well, I have tried shipping meat across country before. It didn't go well. LOL BUT, you never know, I make some pretty incredible smoked deer jerkey. It ships well. But I promised coach first dibs on the new batches once I harvest a few deer.
