[North of the 49th]

I’m three weeks out from beginning this (after blood tests). Will take a look at the food and adjust in the meantime. Will take some pics as we get closer to starting the cycle.

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:

This is what I’m looking at right now, but again likely won’t be starting this for three weeks or so after the blood work.

Any thoughts, comments etc?

@North of the 49th Good start bro.......

@North of the 49th honest no joke, you need to adjust food now , 3 weeks is not even enough but more important training
i dont see training at all
can we talk your training please? you gotta make some major change and i dont see updated base

please throw up pics

Going to take a look at food tomorrow. Starting the GH tomorrow, 2IU’s. Test is only at 100 right now for TRT. Blood work in two weeks and then have decided to up test to 200 a week and adding NPP 200 a week as well at that time (provided blood work looks good). Question I have is; is it better to do 1IU in the am and 1 IU in the pm or just take 2IU’s in the evening? Thoughts guys?
