-2 Injury rehab cycle - High dose Test.
ABOUT ME: After suffering from a detached tricep at the end of 2014, I am now at the stage where the specialists have told me I can 'slowly' start to ramp up my training.
For the last 2 months I have been restricted to leg workouts, straight arm movements for delt isolation, flyes and cables for chest, no presses, no back work - it's been a nightmare to be honest.
But now I have the green light to train fully again, I need to find the quickest possible way to get some muscle back. At the same time I'm mindful that further injury would be disastrous.
GEAR: I'll be running Test Enanthate @ 750mg per week, continuing with my TRT dose of Test Undecanoate @ 250mg per week. Adex @ 0.5mg EOD. HCG @ 500iu x2 per week, Cialis @ 5mg daily.
NUTRITION: '3J nutrition' will be working with me for the next 10 months. I can't thank this guy enough, I took out a 12 month package with him last summer and then got injured. He kindly put this time on hold until I had recovered, and is now picking up where we left off. He has produced a carb cycling programme to follow for the next 3 months. My aim is to recomp the body, drop some of the fat gained whilst injured and use the diet, and the Test, to recover some of the muscle wastage.
CURRENT STATS: I'm 43, 228lbs, 5ft 9", lifting for 25yrs, numerous previous cycles, TRT maintenance.
AIMS: To get 6 months injury-free training under my belt and then start to do some heavier cycles with a view to a bodybuilding show in May 2016.
From now on, every single workout will be attacked with the maximum intensity, accompanied by maximum care. The seriously heavy weights are a thing of the past, I will now be training with moderate weight maximising the mind-muscle connection, and there'll be drop-sets, super-sets, rest-pause sets thrown in here, there and everywhere. It's just the way it's gotta be.
You're welcome to join me on this path, where I'll be giving you feedback on the gear, the workouts, progress of the injury and the diet. I'll try not to bore you, and keep it concise.
Of course your feedback and thoughts will be welcomed along the way.

Just make VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY sure you listen VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY closely to your body. If it starts to tell you anything about pain, STOP immediately. Anyone who has worked out hard knows the difference between the good pain and the bad pain, so please keep that in mind. I would hate for you to hurt yourself.
Having never had a major injury, I certainly cannot speak from experience. I am interested to see how this works out for you. I have worked with 3J and I know if you listen to him and be honest with him, he will help you prevent further injury.
But please, just be careful and do not push harder than your body says you can push.
