Hey buddy! Sas have given some very sound advice here! Not much really that I can add to that apart from adding some chest supported movements into your regime. I find these really help take away other factors out of the movement, you can’t use momentum so it really helps you focus on using your back muscles. This usually means a drop in load, which will be great for finding a great mind muscle connection.

Great advice Louis 🙂

Some people experience mood changes, change in sleep patterns, little more sensitive to certain emotions / feelings, change in libido… for me personally my skin gets oilier, I get watery and I just feel less focused.

Everyone is different so bloods will
Give you the best idea

Rest day diet today. With a cheat meal. Because I’m sore / drained and I have legs tomorrow.

I say “cheat” just in the old school sense. I don’t have cheat foods, I’m quite flexible off season so all food is ok if it serves a purpose. I’m not married to certain food sources.

Rest day

6 whole eggs, Mushrooms, spinach, 2 large wholemeal wraps

60p from whey, 100g cream of rice

200g smoked salmon, 2 bagels, 10g cream cheese

280g 2-3 portions of Costco lasagne, Salad

60p from whey, 40g peanut butter

248 lbs today Up 3 lbs 😀

Feel much fuller on current diet and training volume.

I know it might sound against the grain but I’ve always grown better doing less work in the gym.

More rest days, Lower volume, High “enough” food intake.

If I was to do the volume I enjoy doing I’d have to eat a lot more to grow and I just don’t want to put away a ton of food. I’d rather enjoy more calories dense / lower volume foods if I can. But at some point volume will go up

Rest day today. Chest and back day have wiped me out. I’ll post today’s diet below

What does your typical pull season look like?
Often it’s not what you’re doing it’s how you’re doing, how much of it you’re doing and how well your recovery is

Few tips-
-hit the basics (pull ups, pull down, barbel rows, dumbbell rows, T bar rows, seated rows etc)
-perfect your form. Full ROM, explode into contraction and control the negative.
-you have “feel” each rep, don’t just move the weight, if you’re not feeling it attack your back muscle then lighten the load and slow down the reps.
-increase calories around that day
-throw in an extra rest day around that day
-make sure you’re working hard enough so after your pull session you really feel the “need” for a rest day

I could ramble on but I hope you take something from this at least 🙂

Both nandrolone so IMO doesn’t matter, which ever you feel better on.

[Sasan Heirati]

No you don’t need to go on / off. Some people do.
Like dawid said, start low and increase every 1-2 weeks. When / IF you get to a high dose then you can stagger the dosage like 40 today, 80 tomorrow, repeat this keeps it working too

So awesome to see you back on here Sas – Excited to follow ?

Thanks AJ hope you’re well buddy. Great to see you still doing some serious damage in and out the gym 🙂

[Sasan Heirati]

Jordan’s right. I’m no mass monster but any means and I’ve added on average 2-3 lbs per years over say a 10 year period and was it stayed fairly right BUT it’s still grown none the less. But that’s just muscle growth you can’t really help that.
Slow and steady 🙂

[Sasan Heirati]

Happy to see u back here !

Do you have a current shape update for us ??

Thanks TB 🙂

I don’t yet but I will do. There’s not really much to show lol. And I’ve always been one to post pics only if I’m happy showing it. Works against me social media wise I guess.

I do have pics from when I did a diet and cycle earlier this year though

[Sasan Heirati]

These sessions will be sufficient if they’re are currently working for you so depends how you’re progressing with them? Strength / body weight / recovery etc etc…
I would add rest days either side of lower days to allow maximum recovery that always helped me bring up weaker body parts. Also bump calories up a little on those days also
