Rest day for work fri-sun. I love this due to focusing diet. Around 2400 calories. Weight has stalled but ATM not adjusting due to a few factors. Still seeing good results and leaning out while muscles showing. Cycle adjusting a little. Water intake and rest are best during my work days. I am adding in push ups 3 sets a night.

Sounds good, I’ll follow your log, man. Might be worth just adding a bit more on food and how you’re feeling overall when you can.

Labs in 8 days will see were I'm at. 3 weeks in test E 550wk kgear reta 1mg e3d.b feeling good mentally better after adjusting reta dosage from 4. Weight around the same but I weight myself at night. Still putting on size while leaning out so no complaints. Diet adjusted added bagel with cream cheese. Focusing on legs for this cycle going to keep it fun and simple as I don't have plans to compete but just to inspire people. Talked to kgear community and adding in some different quad exercises.

Leg day focusing quads more. Although I bumped my macros up I'm at 188 from 190 which is good because I'm still leaning while putting on muscle. Labs next Tuesday will see and post. Diet is generally the same. Greek yogurt oatmeal bagel cream cheese and main meals etc.

Updates fri-sun rest/12 hr work days. I did increase my macros from 2400 to 2800. I got down to around 185 am still cutting but taking it slow. Leaned out and getting a lot of fullness. Labs Tuesday so probably post Friday. Finally seeing great progress. Kgear Test E close to a month used and loving it.

Appreciate it. I been trying to find workouts this last month. Still haven't found something that really makes the sore. My ham and hip get hella sore. I'm going to try weighted lunges. Also been tanning outside and that helps a lot lol

Labs tomorrow 💉 One month on KGear, running 200 mg Test E EOD. Who said you can't get big on just testosterone? Big thanks for the support—feeling strong, looking awesome, and excited to see what the labs show. 💪🔥

6/9 labs completed today—I'll upload the results by Friday.

Feeling awesome lately. I took a B12 shot yesterday, and it made a huge difference. Definitely adding that into my weekly routine.

The KGear Test E at 200mg EOD is really shining right now. Considering I'm in a cutting phase, I'm happy with my overall progress. I'm averaging 186 lbs this week, down from 240 lbs 14 months ago.

Reta at 1mg E3D has also helped keep my dopamine levels from dropping during the cut.

The KGear community has been a huge help with both my diet and gear questions, so shoutout to KGear and everyone who's shared advice along the way.

I know I perform best on a bulk, but I'm staying patient. After spending 10 years not working out, I'm focused on doing things the right way and trusting the process.
