Approved Log My recomp cycle Log

[North of the 49th]

Hopefully I don’t forget anything here. I’m 47 and former athlete. Been training off and on for the better part of 30 years. Did a few cycles in early 20’s but nothing serious. Recently, 5 weeks, on TRT. Currently only 100mg of Test Cyp a week. Blood tests in three weeks and will hopefully have dose adjusted at that time. I’m 5’8” and currently weighing 177lbs at 18% bf. If blood comes back good I’m thinking about going on 250 Test Cyp (12 weeks), 2IU’s HGH and 40mg of Anavar (6 weeks). Depending on my ability to get GH (thinking syn Pharma for that). I went through a couple of surgeries on my knee and foot (old football injuries) and am trying to bring my legs back up during this recomp. My diet is pretty clean and looks something like this:

Any thoughts, comments etc?

@North of the 49th welcome to the IO family now, Canadian brothers always welcome

Cycle
I would say 250mgs testosterone + TRT actually is good but 100mgs per week addition
1 IU of hgh to start
and you need organ liver support like n2guard for sure

Please share more day to day information with us.

Diet, Training, Cardio
Diet, please share foods and meals and when you eat them, macros would be good
Training, please share actual exercises reps sets and weights, as you go especially get stronger
cardio how much do you do? when etc
If you don't log what you eat or train now, open NOTES on phone and start recording it there and paste here. Very easy.

supplements
what supps you use?
digestive enzymes?
multis?
probiotics?
psyllium husk?

pictures

[SteveSmith]

a great start to this brother really good information

 

[Mobster]

I think it looks like too much food for a recomp

 

[QuadSweep]

If you are burning a lot of calories then this will work
but I agree with mobster it's probably too much food

 

[BodyMonster34]

bro i like you getting in some red meat
that good

 

[JasonPriest]

18% body fat
no need for 4 big meals per day
cut it down

 

[wootoom]

I would aim for maybe 2 or 3 meals within a window
time restricted eating will be your friend

 

[Vadim Fedorov]

I wish you well on this log

[2Thick]

18% body fat is very manageable
especially at your height you'll be able to burn that quickly
