yep but you dont want to manscape to far because then it ends up looking like a pop corn shrimp haha. i hate shaving in the offseason to man. when you are half water buffalo and half sasquatch grooming eod is a huge pain in the ass when you are doing it for no real reason
Me and you come from the same mold guns. I too am half water buffalo and half Sasquatch.
Totally stoked about my flat bench work today and an overall killer chest day. Some may look at my flat bench numbers and say so what but the bottom line is that I haven't been able to do heavy flat bench work in a long time and probably over the last 8 months I have rarely begun a chest workout with flat bench.... flat benches since last year have severely aggravated my AC/ rotator cuffs/ and elbow joints. As of late my shoulders and elbows have felt a lot better so I warmed up sufficiently today and went for it. I know guns is likely gonna get on me for that 2 rep set but the fact of the matter is had I sped up the reps and exploded more I could have easily added one or two reps to those 4 initial heavy sets. All reps were fairly slow and very controlled.
One quick thing on dieting for those who maybe read my log and kind of half ass their diet. The last week has shown me that diet fucking matters.... ALOT. I just got back from two weeks vacation where I let my diet slip. I continued to run gear and workout. I honestly thought it would be no big deal as long as I continued on to work out, run my gear, and at least get sufficient protein. I came back 1/2 a pound lighter, noticed a difference in the mirror, and significantly weaker. I jumped back on my diet and less than a week later damn do I feel swollen and strong..... and neighbor made the comment when I got home from work that it looked like I had gotten significantly bigger since I got back. I'm 1 1/2 pounds up on the scale as of today. By no means am I claiming to be an expert nutritionist or that my diet is spot on, I've been lifting for going on 25 years now and have never really taken the time to learn anything more than basic bodybuilder dieting. I'm actually glad that happened because this is the most pronounced I have ever noticed how big of an impact dieting has on mass and strength gain.

Had to get to work. Hitting 25 min light cardio tonight.
Strength is slowly but surely climbing back up on deads. Went low rep sets today and slowly worked up to what I'm guessing is about 90% of my current 1 rep max. Tried meadow rows for the first time today. Didn't change angles just got used to the movement. Definitely harder than one arm dumbbells and gripping the thick end of the tbar made for a good grip workout. Transitioning from 50 mgs Test P/ day to 50 mgs Test PP/ day simply because I have some I'm trying to get rid of. I'm gonna keep about 30mgs of test P in the mix for about a week until the PP is running
Walked into the gym this morning with no motivation. Just felt dehydrated and blah in my stomach. Anyway once I started hitting the high rep biceps movements and the guns started filling with blood I got damn motivated damn quickly. Great pump and vascularity. I've never had great vascularity and today I had a roadmap going on... well a country roadmap anyway.
I'm really stoked I was able to do dips today. That's another one that really aggravated the elbows and shoulders and haven't done them in a long while. Still a little bit of cracking going on in there but they felt pretty damn good. Didn't push it hard though. I'm noticing that if I'm patient with my tris and do a shit load of working warm up sets I eventually get a few pretty good ones in with no pain.
Added 100 mgs proviron in to the mix so it now is: 650 test/wk, 350 NPP/ wk, 100 mg proviron/ day, 25 mg aromasin/ day, 2 iu HGH mon- fri. Gonna need a girlfriend here pretty quick with that proviron. lol. I upped my carbs pretty significantly and am letting myself eat white potato tater tots with my two egg meals each day. I've just gotten to the point where eggs and chicken are making me gag and the tater tots and ketchup actually help me enjoy the meal. That being said I have noticed more bloat... so I guess I'm officially bulking instead of lean bulking lol. 214 on the scale this morning. Up 6 pounds since I've started. Feeling strong.

I know the pic below is blurry... I couldn't get the camera to focus. Def progress in my legs but still a long way to go. Calves still look chickeny
beast mode. screw the harvest grain crap gusto, it's the offseason man. get some cannoli ones or something good. if you go to ihop freaking go to ihop. i have a wise old man here that helps we out a bit with tweaks here and there. he told me to go to ihop and have an omlete and pancakes. i had the harvest grain ones with sugar free syrup instead of listening to him and it probably set me back two weeks because i was over depleted. so a good burst of sugar after depeleting for a very long time is a good thing and being stuborn doesnt always pay off lol
