A long while back Mr.Kasab posted a vid on using a band as a budget-friendly slingshot. Twist and double over the band to make two loops. Slide it up your arms to just above the elbow. Works pretty well for overloading the bench press and may give you an idea of whether or not you want to invest in a slingshot.

Originally Posted By KaiK:

I naturally have lower SHBG so my Free T is a pretty high proportionately to my total t. So I don't need a huge dose. 200 mg a week is probably on the high side of what is ordinarily prescribed as far as I can tell. Edit: I worked up to 150mg week, I think I started at 100mg/week when I started doing at home injections. |

Not an expert, but you probably don't need an AI or hcg on that small of a dose.

At 50mg a week, you do not need an AI. I almost guaranty it. A little extra E never hurt anyone. A ton of E is bad. But you're dose is pretty low. Just pin once a week. That low of a dose won't swing your mood or T levels too bad (compared to pinning 250mg per week). Large doses need to be split to twice a week.
To get more Cyp, only draw labs the day before your next pin. So pin on Saturday. Only ever lab on Friday. With a half life of Cyp at 7 days, the day before, or day of before you pin is where you'll have the lowest total T numbers. Then you can see if the doc will up your prescription. At a 600 after a week after 6-7 days after you last pin means your peak T the day of or day after injection will be a quite a bit higher. HGC does not need to be cycled. You do not build resistance to it. Your body makes 70mg of test a week (for us with low T). Adding 50mg in a injection per week with no hGC can shut your natural production down. The. You end up worse off. But add hGC in, and you'll have your natural production, plus your injection amout. I've seen where hCG will also increase your free T numbers (read gains). Always, always, always get a copy of your labs! Call the doc. Asks them to print it up. Go pick it up. Seriously. You'll need those to help gauge your health and he way you feel to the numbers. That will help to find the spot you feel best at. And if you need to, helps to give you a reason to fire or keep the current doc. Especially if he's not super confident with the protocol or treatment. |

Screwed around with low bar squats at the end of my session. Discovered that flat shoes feel way better with low bar than my weightlifting shoes do. I was getting noticeably more glute and hamstring activation. Did some easy-ish sets with 200 and it didn't aggravate my elbow at all. Maybe if I hammer some light weight volume to get the form down and really work on my shoulder mobility, I can get back to heavy weights without fucking up my elbow. Maybe.

Deadlift to 315# after grappling last night. That was quite the experience. Looks like there may be a few guys interested in doing this regularly.
How do we feel about lifting after very intense cardio work. Doing 3-5 5 minute sets at max effort + an hour of general training and rolling prior to that. It works for me because they have nice equipment, and I am warmed up. |
