I’ve recently joined a gym again and been at it for a month so far. Been eating consistently and gym every day. I started at 156lbs. Over thanksgiving I gained a few pounds and now weigh 163 this morning. My strength is starting to go up slowly . I plan to add test at 180-200mg a week to start and see how I respond to that dose. I want to look decent by the 4th of July when I go on vacation and plan to hit the pool and water park. So I have 7 months to make progress. I plan to start test the 1st part week of January if all my stuff is here by then and then adjust calories as needed. I don’t want to get fat, so watching calories is going to be a priority. I’m guessing I am around 15-20 % right now. I’ve been taking 10mg of creatine on training days, so that may have added to my weight gain also.

Chest is tonight and possibly tri’s if I have time.

Happy to see you dedicated to improving 🙂
Age is a #, not a measure of potential.

Appreciate it, the older I get the, the less time I feel I have to make great gains and get big. Then you see 60 yr olds that look massive lol. I know part is genetics, but then I see people my age and in their 50’s act like their time is up. I just remember myself a decade ago and want to get back to that!

Morning weight 163.

I’ve been back to my diet since last Wednesday, so maybe the creatine has added the weight? I’m about 2.5 weeks into that. My lifts went up last night in chest. I’m glad to see progress happening.,

How tall are you and how old is older?
 
Good luck brother. I'll bet it won't be your last stint. Do it right and watch your blood markers. Take time off completely for periods and enjoy return to the game. Muscle memory is a great thing. I'm guessing you will lean out and put on muscle at the same time if you're dialed in.

Thanks. I plan to just ease into it. I’m hoping to get the most gains out of the smallest amount that I need until it’s just blast and cruise time. I just sucks starting over when it takes time build muscle back up! I’m tracking all my foods and I believe journaling helps you stay accountable!

Apologies if I missed it, but are you cutting or starting a growth phase?

Wish you luck either way. Just curious.

No worries. Right now i plan to keep my diet mainly clean and see how it reacts to 200mg of test before I make adjustments. I’m just tracking every calorie, weighing and looking in the mirror every day .

164.5 today. Back and bi’s last night felt pretty good. Got my TD from H&B , so the new year is looking up!! I’ve decided to do 200mg/wk injecting every day to help with sides.

Weight 164.8

Shoulders went well last night. Went up 5lbs in db presses.

So my weight has been pretty steady for the last month. It jumped up 5-7 lbs when I started taking creatine. My diet is pretty clean with 1-2 cheat meals a week. I’m adding 200mg of test next weekend and I am not sure if I should keep my diet the same or up the calories? I really thought my weight would have went up a bit more once I started working out, since it’s been 1 1/2 months, but no drastic gains or losses .

Weight 164 arms last night and somehow I strained my front delt doing close grip bench. Not sure if it’s old age or bad luck. Wasn’t even that heavy. Maybe the smith machine just moved a way that my shoulder didn’t like? Anyways gonna take it easy next week since the family is visiting and then start 200 mg of test next weekend.

Weights around 168 with relatives in town. Plan to start pinning 12-15 iu’s a day starting Monday. I’m thinking of doubling it for a week to get a jump start. Kinda curious on how long it will take till I notice the gains? It used to take 4-5 weeks doing 2 shots a week. Anyone see issues with 27g 1/2” insulin pins?

Your diet needs more real food and less processed stuff imo( Deli meat, quest bars) and your protein looks like it's barely over 100 grams, maybe 125g.

What is 12-15 IUs? GH? That's way too much for a beginner, most start at 2-3 IUs.

If your really 15-20% bf you should already be pretty lean and have solid abs/ obliques showing, so you don't need to lose much, or you're a or higher than that. You have 7 months so that's plenty of time to get really lean.

What are you pinning with 27g? If oil that works, and water that's more than plenty 30-31g even better.

I changed out the deli meat for grilled chicken. The 12-15iu’s is 30mg of test a day . The 27 gauge is the insulin needle or maybe I should get 29-31 gauge needle?

I’ve been pinning my test cyp EOD SubQ using a 29 gauge 1/2 slin pin. Draws slowly, but it works.
