keep training hard brother

I'll smash you good.

I did Chest on monday. I felt weak, must have used alot of deltoids because my deltoids are sore like i've never been before. Argh..

hahah,

nah thatsok , everything works in proportion and with time it builds, dont worry about it i reckon man just keep doing it and report back with pics every 3 months or so

Thanks dad. Love you.

Two months later. I lost .5kg. Not sure why. I don't appear to be any smaller or bigger. Could just be nothing...But i'm not putting on any more weight.

Trying this sustain alpha & getting bloods.

i find i can vary a 1-2kg everyday depending on what i eat\what i'm weighing myself and what scales i'm using eg digi/analog/cheapo who-flung-dung scales, and i'm alot smaller than you.

I only take interest when i lose/gain 5kg cause anything else is too varible. My misses always says i lost 1kg this month and expects me to congratulate her, I suppose if it was 1 every month it would be something to celebrate but sadly not the case.

I guess what i am trying to say is i don't think you have anything to worry about.

Well... I might not have to worry about losing but i'm concerned i haven't gained. Especially considering 3 months after cycle i started to gain again, but now i've hit the wall even after radically changing my programme.

I generally don't fluctuate because i eat the same things every day. For 2 weeks i was 75.2 - 75.3 would you believe? I weigh myself in the morning on the same scales. It's always been fairly predictable.

Anyway; i'll see how this alpha stuff works. Hopefully i'll get a referral tomorrow for bloods!

I'm at about 89kg. I really go about 1kg heavier depending on hydration etc as Michael has said. Problem is I have not made any gains for a long time despite increasing calories, changing my training etc. Only time I ever made any gains recently was when on cycle. I understand the frustration of your situation, so I am also hopeful this stuff does something. Although I got to wait until I get paid at the end of the week.

Thanks mate. I hope we both make some gains. I am going to fast tomorrow morning in anticipation for tomorrow's blood test. If i get a referral for a blood test i can do it straight away without waiting for the next day to fast.

adz when you get yours please get bloods done.

Nah you don't need to fast for testosterone your supposed to have it as soon as you wake up but doesn't matter too much as long as the follow up test is around the same time same conditions.

If you have one in the early morn on a full stomach fully rested then one in the late arvo after fasting and activities there is going to be a difference, So the timing and fasted not fasted doesn't matter as long as the follow up test is the same.

Btw O/T but are those gloves are they harbinger classic with wrist wrap? or the pro with wrist wrap and how are they i just ordered myself a pair of harbinger gloves w/o the wrist wraps

Well I'm putting it all onhold until I recover from this virus I have atm.

Michael. Just Harbinger Classic I believe. It's just a glove with a little wrist wrap. It's not to be used for wrapping around barbells, just around your wrist for support.

I find them to be AWESOME. My wrist problems have literally vanished! Takes a few weeks to wear in though.

PS. you do have to fast for FREE TEST. i fasted just in case, lucky...

Plex just a question, how do you train during Ramadan? Does it make training harder for you?

personally i dont like gloves or straps and stuff like that. if i cant hold it myself then i shouldnt be doing it. just my theory. plus im not afraid of getting rough hands lol

nah i'm pretty certain you don't have to fast for any any sex hormone some dr's just like you to do it in the morning and some will even say you have to abstain for 7 days no wanking nothing cause these will all make the results much higher.

I've done this before and yea abstaining for 7 days made my test go from around 12-14 to 18-20 there's a thread here some where with the exact results. But this means shit all cause for one we don't abstain for 7 days so wtf is the point of creating a artificial situation that we will never be in. Secondly SHGB or what ever the fuck it's called also rises making the extra test useless i reckon this is just a tactic GP's pull so they can say see look you have normal levels you don't need TRT get gimme my fee and get outta here.

If you fasted just make sure you fast for the follow up tests and it should be fine but i think the most important is the follow up test are done at the same time with the same amount of rest.

As for gloves i used to always go bare hand and got calises and shit and a few girls reckon it was a turn off so i thought about it and agreed and always wear gloves now. I got a cheapo pair off ebay and have had them for a few years and they are really uncomfortable make hands sweat stitching is fucked and make them itch and shit so i though i'd get a top of the line pair harbinger ones from the US cause it's half the price. I didn't go with the wrist support ones though cause my wrist are really weak and i figured it might be better not to support them to strengthen them.

No not at all. Had it taken 2 weeks ago without a fast. You only need to fast for cholesterol and glucose.

plexus i reckon you should go and try to do some model work for mens clothing/sports clothing/ undies etc etc i reckon you could get some work from it.

I don't disagree with you about fasting, i just know that Queensland Medical Laboratory requires fasting for Free Test (not for total Test though). Weird. I don't even care about free test.

Thrasha - I pretty much don't work out for 4 weeks in ramadan. It's gay! But i just don't have any energy left. Maybe this year i'll train 2 days (sat/sun) at night. Just to keep it up.

I never used to train with gloves, but the support i get from the wrist strap is amazing so i'll continue to do it. Even with 20kg dumbell press my wrists aren't happy... now i can do 10-12 reps of 30kg each hand and feel fine.

the face woeven matter and with photography these days all can be altered and from a distance you cant see acne scars i'd have a go at it mate worst that can happen is you go for some work and they so no your not suitable. Or they will say your hired here's a million dollars.
