DYELB: The Gainz Train

If you ever do go the enhanced route, I’d spend the little extra to go through a clinic and do bloodwork every 3-4 months to make sure you stay healthy. Ultimately this is all because I didn’t do bloodwork or give blood for over a year, so I had no idea how high the numbers had gotten. I'd do that ...

DYELB: The Gainz Train

Just regular TRT can have a negative impact on that number? I've listened to plenty of Mark Bell chat about TRT and I don't think that's something they've ever mentioned. yes, but if you are on a therapeutic dose it is not likely to come up enough to cause concern. Good to know, and really all I ca...

Damn. Bloodwork from Friday showed my hematocrit back up at 61. I’m gonna have to drop the 100mg of test out even and go all natural for a few months until that number is down in a safe, healthy range. Wish me luck boys. Test tested at 935.. still higher than the normal range and high for only bein...

Hope being able to train properly gets you in a better mental state man! One thing I've learned is that the mid thirties are a weird time of life and not necessarily as easy to be happy as younger years, for me at least. You bumping those reps up or down? I honestly go back and forth on my DL volum...

Anyone still doing bike shit? I ordered some new winter gear on BF/CM, going to try to keep riding volume up through wintah. I'm at 3,460 miles in 2023, I think I may attempt to hit 4K for the year, but it'll be tricky as this first week I'll be on the road. Other than that I'm home so if I go hard...

Easier said than done. 1lb = 3,500 calories, 150lb is 525,000 calories. That's the equivalent to 262.5 days of eating nothing for someone on a 2,000 calorie per day diet.

Happy for you man. Life is too short to do something you don't like if it can be avoided and this is an awesome step. Sounds like it's well thought out and you have the spousal support, so why not go for it? No better time than now. While it's sad to see the car go, it sounds like it's part of a bi...

Officially for sale y'all. Holla if you're interested. 3,782 miles currently, unlikely to go up much. Cosmetically the car is flawless except for one unfortunate ding on the hood, just above the passenger side headlight. The good news is the impact was to the PPF, so no damage was done to the paint ...
