Sometimes this can be due to certain muscles not firing up / connecting with the mind properly maybe around neck / back. I know 2 people lately who had rehab on same issues and starting to get fixed. The therapists use some sort of neuro technique with pulse treatment to see which muscles are connecting properly and which aren’t, then continue to strength those weaker areas and balance things out.
Maybe a long shot but if you’ve exhausted all the usually therapy work then this could work

Back day was great yesterday, I trained quite late for a change. Just due to work load. It was actually nice to have more food in me

But mid morning sessions, after 1 or 2 meals are definitely perfect for me.

But either way. Happy with the session, with my lower being as fragile as it is these days I really don’t push weight up on back days. Not as fun but i can still stimulate the muscles the same.

Chest today. Looking forward to it!

Back & abs

Rope crunches 5 x 15-20

Straight arm pull downs 3 x 8-15

Wide grip pull downs 3 x 8-12

Narrow grip pull downs 3 x 8-12 double drop

T bar (chest support) 3 x 6-10

Single arm rows 3 x 8-10

Wide over hand rows chest support 2 x 6-12

Seated cable row 3 x 8-15

Yes as mentioned above a good therapist will be able to analyse movements and narrow it down to where the weakness is then simply rehab to strengthen that area

So lots of family time and rest over the weekend and back in the gym today for back

I’ve cut calories a touch more to see me get closer to 240 this week. Still hovering around 242-244

Will post diet next and back session later

Hope everyone has a great Monday !

[Sasan Heirati]

It can be normal yes but only really when pushing super hard (food wise) usually when you keep the food the same for a short while you will
Adapt and pick back up don’t worry

But if it gets worse maybe post you body weight / plan etc and we can try help

[Sasan Heirati]

If your e2 is too low constantly why are you running same dosage mast as test ? And why are running tren when it was test & primo previously ?

[Sasan Heirati]

From what you’ve said, and how you look, I’d suggest you push calories up and get growing. Nice and slowly. You’re not fat, and want muscle… so why waste time

[Sasan Heirati]

If the oil looks clear, no crystals then they’ll be ok : )

[Sasan Heirati]

Mixed it up a little the last couple days since I took a few days off did upper and lower just to make sure everything is still worked so I can start the usual split come Monday

[Sasan Heirati]

What’s the goal?

[Sasan Heirati]

So 242 today, I’ve trained less the last few days due to my lower back but it’s more preventative reasons rather then injury. I think after 18 years of lifting I’m learning the signs of when to back off a little before it gets to the point where I can’t do much at all.

I don’t feel leaner then last week but I’ve held it well, so I’ll be increasing my deficit from today and I’ll post my new diet later. I’ll be filming in 2 weeks for the site so I’ll be loooot leaner ; )

Cycle is perfect. 400 test, 200 mast is keeping big and strong but allowing me to get tighter and my mood / sex drive is perfect : D

Hope everyone is having a great week so far!

[Sasan Heirati]

Yeah I just do what’s always worked for me. Could I have grown quicker using more frequency etc??? Maybe… maybe not… but A- my joints would have worn down more… B-That’s not how I enjoyed training…. C- I’ve always liked simplicity and my style of training negated a lot of thinking for me…

Might sound lazy to most people these days but for me it just worked. And I’m still training 18 years on.

That makes perfect sense to me. Thanks for answering ?

Hey Sas. Thanks for logging your progress. Sorry if you have allready stated this somewhere (I missed it), but what is your training split these days? I understand that its a bit on how you feel though.

Don’t be sorry at all bud. Although I do train on feel, my split has actually brekkie quite similar for the last 15 years since I started training more for bodybuilding. I’ve veered away to other setups a few times but it never suited me.

So it rarely changes. I’ll post it below : )[/quote]
Thanks.
Even though genetics play a part in it I like seeing people using splits and training methods that some people claim doesn’t work. For example, training a bodypart only once a week is considered by many supoptimal. You obviously had massive success with your approach which is awesome.
