+ 5 Genuinely Looking Forward to Suffering
Starting in August I'm going to take my first honest to god shot at getting lean, and I'm genuinely looking forward to it. This is completely uncharted territory for me, as my current weight of 230 is the smallest I've ever been as an adult. I don't really have a weight goal in mind, I plan on just continuing until im satisfied with how lean I am. Is that 15, 20, 30 lbs??? No fucking clue lol
Don't plan doing anything crazy this rip. Lowering my dose to my standard TRT dose of 150-175, and cutting a 100g of carbs out of my diet, pretty much all from rice. Going to stay there until progress stops, then just keep taking 50-75g carbs out as needed and probably lowering fats at some point as well.
Once I'm satisfied with where I'm at, whatever weight that ends up being, I'll slowly reverse diet out and take the time to figure out what my new maintenance calorie intake is. From there I'll hold for a bit just maintaining, mostly just to prove to myself that I can lol.
I really like my current weight of 230. The plan is to slowly start putting weight back on to get back to this weight, just leaner than I currently am. More or less the same plan I have to lose it just in reverse. Slowly increasing carbs as progress stalls. This is a long-ish term goal, I'd like to be back at this weight by August next year, just leaner and 1 year wiser. Planning a test, npp, mast cycle to run during this gaining phase.
Current maintenance calories are fairly high, so I feel likeI have a lot of wiggle room before I really start to struggle. But like I said, uncharted territory for me so we'll see. Already on 1mg of reta just keep the cravings to eat junk away. Will definitely increase if needed at some point though. My diet adherence is stellar, much to the annoyance of my extremely supportive wife lol. One conservative cheat meal a week, everything else on plan. Don't plan on making any changes to my training initially, but will do so if needed based on how I'm recovering. I fully expect, and I'm mentally prepared, for progress in my workouts to slow, if not come to a grinding halt at some point.
Absolutely open to criticism and advice!

Inject the smaller trap with 1/2 cc juice.
LETS GO swell it up
I saw someone on here saying they do that, was it you?? Idk man, I know for a fact there's a big ass bundle of nerves in those suckers, I think my part-time bitch side is going to win that argument lmao.
That’s me 100%.
Atleast 100
Pokes in each one. And only 1 time it hurt my dumbass had test prop in the mix.
TRAPS
I tore my right rotator cuff, I have the same thing going on with my trap. My right delt is smaller and doesnt "pop" as nicely as my left.. oh well. To be honest, we (the indivdual) probably is the only person that notices.
Nice job bro, keep working
He's a goddamn traps monster!
Only my left lol, right never really recovered after RTC surgery. That's actually something I forgot about @press1 I neglected my trap after surgery and it'll probably never catch up to my left now. Don't be like me.
LMAO I never noticed that until you pointed it out mate!!! Funny thing is I have one trap that becomes a lot more pronounced than the other from hammering Deads - I always found I had the best traps when I used Tren because of the huge dominance of muscle receptors in them as opposed to other areas in the body.
I think you should stay as you are pal as opposed to all this getting lean malarky - 230lb's is a great weight to be at and is clearly bigger than most other males walking around. You are gonna be stronger too, I can see the attraction for being Lean if you are on the pull for a new woman - but if you are a married man then why do it just to end up suffering in what you can eat and everything?
Anyway, the Day is looming pal and my arse is beginning to go - Not feelin so brave now LMFAO
I gotta do it at least once in my life bro! But you're right, there's no real reason to other than just a personal goal, my girl chasing days are LONG past me lol.
I'm telling you it ain't THAT bad bro! Does it suck ass? Definitely. Especially the first 6-8 weeks, none of it was unbearable though. You'll be thinking back in 12 weeks wondering wtf you were so worried about.
Yeah I know mate - it's just FEAR of the unknown as it always is with me. If I had been through the day and procedure before then I wouldn't be half as bothered, but never actually been into hospital before and been wheeled into a Bloody Surgery Theatre!!! Lol Hope they just knock me out with some IV Benzo's in the pre operation room but no doubt I will be awake all the way in lol
They gave me enough Valium to knock out a horse then let them really kick in before they came do the nerve block. I watch on the ultrasound when they stuck that fucker in without a care in the world. Then pumped me with so much morphine when I woke up the rest of the day was basically a blur. I remember sitting on my couch after my wife drove me home and eating an entire large pizza, then I just woke up the next day, nothing in between lol.
So were you semi-conscious when they operated then? You saw them go into your shoulder?
Tbh if they pump me full of Diazepam whilst waiting to go in then I will be fine - they normally give me a load of Midazolam which is way stronger than Valium when they hook me up for tooth surgery and man that fucker takes about 5 to 10 seconds then lights out LMAO
Oh no, I vaguely remember them wheeling me into the surgery room, I helped them shimmey my big ass on to the table, they covered me in some nice warm blankets and it was lights out til I woke up in recovery.
Who the fuck is this fake press
You are in The House of Press Bro
Oh got it. Glad you finally came to the conclusion that five finger death punch sucks.
I feel like we can finally grow as a couple now.
@RobertB80 sent me the picture of this house he saw on a lovely nature walk with his Girlfriend - right before he mounted her in a local farmers field LMAO Early FFDP = Great, later on SHITE
Hahahaha fuckin love that guy. @RobertB80 needs to allocate more time for eroids when he's not beating cheeks In the woods
Love you too you slag
I think he's in love currently mate which is why we are playing second fiddle atm - you need to find a way of enticing him back.
Aww poor guy. Hopefully he comes to his senses soon
