BW check in 179lb average mornings. Diet isn't that hard to stick too. Food quantity is. Still overeating even though white carbs are out. Feel much lighter, not near as bloated. Shoulder minor improvement, very slow progress - can raise it slightly higher than 2 weeks ago. Punching from orthodox doesn't hurt anymore (minimal throws, less than 50 at 50% power) . Struggling to find a comfortable tricep workout, everything involves shoulder pressure keeping arms tucked. Really need to mix in ice baths, but they fucking suck. Sticking to cold pool dunks.

Random thoughts: I hate the days that the radio ruins the workout. Every song is played out or you just don't want to hear it. So between each set you're changing stations and skipping songs. Kills the flow. Takes your mental out of the lifts.

Have a 0-5 star rating system on each workout to look at which ones were tough or just cooldown workouts. Like to stay in the 4 range most days, ramp up to a 5 on weekends and hit a 3 at end of week. Shoulder is finally starting to improve, unsure if diet or new routine letting it rest and not pushing it too hard. Can raise arm about 85% straight up and almost touch left shoulder without pain.

Slowly gettting more use out of arm. Its starting to feel 'better' . Can raise overhead but can't do dead hang pull ups yet. There is a noticeable grinding sound doing pike push ups. And it also randomly pops like its sliding in & out of place. Throwing ball in yard or punches it does more than would like to admit. Able to do ring pulls due to ability to lean body back. Dip pressing is still out. Have pushed it too hard some days and felt it throbbing for an hour. Stay the course, don't fk up and lose progress. Temp in gym is dropping, movements are more cautious and attention to warm ups.

Shoulders are absolute bastards to rehab. I started doing One Arm Dumbbell Bench to address strength imbalances in my left shoulder, which I'd had an operation on. It worked really well...until my RIGHT shoulder/bicep started to hurt from the OADB!

I swear to God, it's a fucking juggling act trying to heal one injured body part without fucking up another one in the process!:mad:

If that ain't the absolute truth. I guess they are slow bastards because of the amount of use we get out of it. Most lifts require both arms to move, even squats.

Laughed at part of over compensating and causing other issues. Have not been posting the whiney irks of other parts. Left elbow got cranky from taking more weight, knees definitely started asking for days off on pivot kicking and stair work, hip flexors started fatiguing from hurdle jumping and explosive knees work. Knew the signs and changed course before having a physical breakdown. Hope you're able to get decent work in without pain!!

Thanks, man. I'll probably swap out DB Bench for Smith Machine JM Press, as that doesn't seem to irritate my shoulders or bicep.

Have you looked into or hit up DS to talk about peptides?

If you don’t do injections for TRT (cuz needle) would you do oral or transdermal?

I had not looked into them outside of the great bits of info he shares. Wasn't interested in daily injects and the oral just seemed like you didn't get the full benefits. The clinic did offer them in a couple variants and went over so many options. It could possibly be on the table.

Quick check in post consultation. Blood levels all in healthy range outside of Test. It was at 310ng on the 200-1000 scale, became a candidate. All the cholesterol, PSA, blood sugars in good form. Was pitched a bunch of options from just Test, to oral / tablet / injection peptides, HGH , Oxandrolone / Nandrolone. All at increasing prices lol. Signed up for the TRT train at low dose to try it out. Doing a tiny gauge subc dose twice a week instead of the muscular every 7 days with a larger gauge. Took 1st stick Monday and they mailed a months supply to house to continue. Blood work every 3 months. We shall see. I'm writing this on Friday evening - 5 days later. Have gained 4lbs from eating like a damn sexual Tyrannosaurus .
BW: 187lb , eating fairly clean - not trash food.

3 DL (245)
BoB Beatdown .........

MF'n Right Calf popped in the middle of a left side round kick. Felt the muscle fibers go full strain and collapse. The exact same pain the left bicep / forearm made last year. Knew exactly what it was, got pissed, limped inside. Hot bath with Epsom, ice compress, ibuprofen. WTF is going on with muscles.

*Not a doctor or an endocrinologist.

What dose did you get prescribed?

Some things I have learned:

- Expect your cholesterol to not be ideal anymore. LDL will spike and HDL will plummet.
- Expect to have more blood in general. Body builders sometimes do phlebotomies to keep their BP in check. On that note, keep track of your BP.
- SQ injections will absorb slowly in general.
- Keep track of things like LH, FSH, SHBG, PSA. Don’t just pay attention to E2 / Estrodiol levels. Most prescribers give some kind of estrogen blocker, but you do need estrogen. Just not excess.
- If low dosed, probably not. But keep track of hair, get one of those drain catchers for the shower. Test turns into a bunch of things downstream, DHT being one which can cause follicular miniaturization.

You can find lots of other things by checking out Stan Efferding’s posts on the matter since he’s with Marek. Or any number of other sources.

There were 3-4 pages of very detailed blood work. Will have tracking on things you noted. Hoping its enough motivation to clean the remaining junk of out diet that could keep cholesterol on the upper.

I do not know the exact type in vial yet, it may be a few days before arrival with holidays. Was just told to take .4ml every 4 days. Appreciate all info and heads up on the matter. Not in it to hulk up, just to clear out excessive inflammation and get basic use of body again. The lean gains & better sleep will be great side bonuses.

Am leaving enough notes for anyone on the edge or considering, with general information. Trying to keep it honest and not pump it up to be a miracle cure for all pains. I should probably be more interested and do more research as 41 yrs is beating me up like never before. Having to dial back training by immense amounts just to stay in gym.

Happy New Years you filthy animals. Not much on resolution , just stick with it all the time. Was a bang up year, more detrimental injuries than any previous. Still showing up 29-30 days a month. Workouts took a massive shift. The volume and intensity had to be readjusted to make more recovery. Going harder in shorter time. Out of gym much quicker, feels like still getting decent work in but leaving plenty in tank for tomorrow.
I did hit a digital wall and stopped IG 3 months ago, stopped spending time online all over. Which is why these post are fewer & farther between. Hug the people you like, suplex the ones you don't. 2025 time.
