Back in the Gym, First workout for me.

[bodyhard]

OK So most who know me know my accident injury and all the bullshit that has come along with it. I have been rehabilitating my shoulder, but since, had to stop for personal reasons.

I am not going to allow this personal issue to stop me from working out so last night was my first workout in like forever.

I am starting out extremely light and doing a full body workout for the first month just to wake up my sleeping muscles.

I will be working out Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays.

The workout was and will be in this order: (all compound movements 2 sets of 10 reps for now)

Standing OH Press
BB BOR
Flat Bench
Squats
Deadlifts.

Each week I will increase the weight and sets. After a month or 2 I will gradually add exercises until I start my split again.

I woke up today feeling I worked out last night. This slight pain I am feeling is a good feeling to say the least.

One thing is for sure, the gym still sucks ass, where the fuck are all the hardcore lifters at?

[freebirdmac]

Glad you're back at it! I don't know how you didn't go crazy being out of the gym for so long. Have fun!

[bodyhard]

Glad you're back at it! I don't know how you didn't go crazy being out of the gym for so long. Have fun!

Who said I am not crazy already?

But a quick FYI, I sort of released some of that anger on New Years eve, got into a fight and laid the fucker out, damn it felt good hitting someone! My left (that is my bad shoulder) is not too bad, hit him 3 times didn't affect him that bad, but I dazed him. The right is still there though! :D

John, John, John... Hit the weights instead. Seems you need regular steel and sex in order to stay out of trouble :p

LOL yeah lots of sex and lots of fighting, but at least this time the fighting was planned, in other words it wasn't beef. Me and a bunch of my friends were chilling and we got to talking about fighting who had it and who lost it you know the age thing yada yada yada

Well this guy, a friend of of a friend, he is 34 was jabbing at us older guys.

Well one thing led to another we put some gloves on, martial arts glove not boxing gloves and we went at it and BAM! Once again I proved my point, :) I think I am like 100 and 0, street fights that is :D :D

Good thing, my pelvis held up really well, you know weaving back and fourth, side to side.

Bad thing, I hurt the guy I cracked one of his ribs.

[freebirdmac]

Oh! I'm relieved! I had envisioned you getting pissed off at someone.

So do we get starting picts?

[bodyhard]

Oh! I'm relieved! I had envisioned you getting pissed off at someone.

So do we get starting picts?

LOL nah it was all in fun but got a little out of hand in the end but that is expected whenever two guys put on gloves :)

Of course, I never start training without taking pics. It is how I monitor my progress.

[blu2xtreme]

Oh! I'm relieved! I had envisioned you getting pissed off at someone.

Everyone needs starting pics :p

It will be cool to see how much you accomplish by Columbus
your still coming aren't you ?

[bodyhard]

Yeah but my starting pics look like shit. But the end results will speak for itself God willing.

Of course I am going, have a few people to meet and a couple of people I need to fight, you know I have to keep my rep intact ;)

I think your rep speaks for its self ...

Lots of people I am looking forward to meeting - I have only met Mike so far and he was way cool.
Hopefully not any I need to fight:p
Should be an interesting trip.

[freebirdmac]

Someone needs to take a camcorder!!!

[blu2xtreme]

Someone needs to take a camcorder!!!

Promise to take lots of pics of everyone - wish you were coming Pam would love to meet you:)

[freebirdmac]

Yeah, it'd be nice. Hopefully another time.

Still photos are great! But video can reveal so much more :D

[joedemarco]

Good luck starting back up again!

[Vulcan]

Good luck! Shoulder injuries suck, I did something to mine on Monday. Going to take a little time off and see if it heals itself.

[Baldiewonkanobi]

You are the COME BACK KID :yep:

You have history....use it.


Baldie

[HeavyDutyGuy]

The Comeback Kid for sure! You're like our own Rocky Balboa here. Watch the fighting, bro, don't want to set yourself back again- maybe join a boxing gym for your cardio? I sure as hell wouldn't want to fight you, and I'm 250 lbs with a sledgehammer jab and great right cross.. Sounds like you have one of your own.. Good luck John, and look forward to the progress pics.

[bodyhard]

Thanks guys today will be my second day in the gym, second day to a looong journey for sure.

Heavy I have been fighting all of my life, it is just who I am. I know silly but if you been where I have been you would know the reasoning behind it.

In my life time I must have had at the very least without exaggeration 200 street fights. Being the warlord in many gangs I had to fight for many reasons I wont discuss here.


I know this is corny, but what he says about the silliness of it all, the leather skin and knowing it is who you are, has a lot of merit to it. The rest is just comical, but I would guess you know where I am getting at.

John, you're a warrior! I get it because so am I. Just remember, there's a time to fight, and a time not too. Be the warrior/philosopher that I know you are. Now go kick some ass in the gym!

Yes sir!! :D :D

[Bob45]

Good start back plan. I just re started myself after a long layoff for health reasons. I am doing the same lifts without the rows. I just do one lift at a time in a session. It goes quick. I am sticking with it for now because my lifts are increasing faster than ever. I alway did split routines. I am going to wait until the strength increases stop before I get back to them.

Good idea, I don't really like full body routines but since I've been out of the gym for so long I need to, as I stated in my opening post, wake up my sleeping muscles.

[s2h]

check into your area and see if you have a sports chiropractor(not the nuttykind)i see one every week and he uses the active release tech(which doesnt feel great at the time but works wonders) on my shoulder and i feel like i'm 20 again!!

My injuries are way beyond a chiro visit, you see I was in a car accident which left me pretty fucked up. To make a long story short, 6 surgeries to repair my pelvis, ribs and shoulder and WALA I am trying to get back into the game!

[bodyhard]

This is not a journal, I will create one once I start lifting some real weights, right now I am lifting some bitch ass weights and lifting like a fucking 10 year old boy on crack!

But I need to keep track of my progress regardless so I will use this as a starting point till I get to the real shit.

My starting weight on Monday was:

Standing OH press 65lbs 2x10
BOR 65lbs 2x10
Flat BB bench 65lbs 2x10
Squat 95lbs 2x10
Deadlift 135lbs 2x10

Yesterday lifts:

Standing OH press 75lbs 2x10 (10lb increase)
BOR 85x10 (20lbs increase)
Flat BB bench 95lbs 2x10 (30lbs increase)
Squat 135lbs 2x10 (40lbs increase)
Deadlift 135lbs 2x10 (same)

Note: felt slightly winded with the increase, but overall I felt pretty strong. Had no pain on my left clavicle on OH press nor the bench, Pelvis held up on the squats extremely well

[freebirdmac]

Don't worry John. We know these numbers are not representative of what you can do when healthy and back in good workout form. Ego can be a bitch, but knowing you can and have legitimately lifted bigger numbers can make writing these low numbers down hard. Takes guts to do that. :)

[gman]

John, it will come back quick...I know how hard you work.

[bodyhard]

Yeah it sure is an ego deflate-R, but I don't want to take one step forward and two steps back, writing it is not as hard as doing it :( But regardless the numbers are not as bad as my first time in the gym after the last surgery so that is a good thing.


John, it will come back quick...I know how hard you work.

Man I am hoping to be somewhat stronger when we meet at the Arnold would like to get a work out in with you and Matt!

[Bob45]

I'm thinking of going to The Arnold too. I've been on and off these forums for years and never met anyone I know online. It is good to post your progress like you are. I am the same way about numbers. You know what you are capable of. Then when you have to do a fraction of what you could do it sucks! You were lucky to be alive after that accident now you are lifting again.

Bob I would have to assume you are from the other site? Not many on here know of my accident, at least to the point that it left me for dead

In any case you should go to the Arnold if you could should be a blast!

Yeah the other site. I like the attitude on this site. I found it through Gman. He is a good guy. I've always liked and read your fight stories. My father grew up in the Bronx. That is way back! He always told me fighting stories too. I am in upstate NY. How much do you figure the Arnold trip will cost with hotel and flight there?

Kool, love the attitude on this site as well.

Man I have no idea on the flight I am driving. The hotel stay from what I was told is expensive if you are staying in the hotel where the Arnold is at. But Tom told me it is best to stay in a hotel away from the Arnold and just drive there. I never been there so I don't know.

LOL forgot to mentioned, people say my fighting stories are just that stories, but you don't get these from just "stories"

I'll have to mapquest it and see how long that drive would be. I'll check out the hotel rates too. In March we get a lot of big snowstorms still. I know your fights aren't made up stories. I sure didn't mean it that way.

[Baldiewonkanobi]

Yeah.. you don't F with my Bronx buddy. You think the above picture is confirmation of a few bar fights?? Rememeber he use to be a green eyed :D Irishman :D.

Nah man not at all I was talking about all my haters at bb.com, a few I want to meet and shut them the fuck up!

I know I was joking around. I'm not serious a real lot. I can't do much yet either and it sucks. It's good you have control and keep things going forward.

[Baldiewonkanobi]

Slow and easy John...don't hurt your 'thang'


Baldie

[joedemarco]

How is the body starting to respond from your workouts? Feeling good?

Baldie

Bill man in all honesty if I have another set back I think I will throw in the towel, this shit doesn't get any easier.


How is the body starting to respond from your workouts? Feeling good?

Hell yeah man, I am, although it has only been one week, feeling really good. I can hear my muscles talk to me, they are saying "Fuck we have been sleeping for too fucking long John, the sleeping giants are waking the fuck up"

LOL in my grave sweetness!

Today I was approached at the gym, the guy called me bodyhard. When I asked him where he was from he just laughed and said you sure are well known in the net. But for the life of me I have no idea who the fuck he was.

He wouldn't give me his screen name, the thing is I don't know too many people on bb.com that are from NY do you?

I was doing BOR heard someone say, Hey bodyhard, I turned and was like WTF? I said to him hey how do you know me? and that is when he said that I was known in the net.

The thing that bafles me is that I have no idea who he is. I am taking a cam with me if I see him I am going to take a pic of him and post it

Ha! I've sort of expected that to happen to me at the gym. There are a lot of lurkers at the other place. Surely there are some at my gym.

Sucks the guy wouldn't tell you. What a chicken shit.

He wasn't a bad guy at all, actually he was really nice and kept complementing me, but he just didn't tell me if he was a member or a friend of a member. Since I was in the middle of my workout I didn't have time to ask him all of that and when I was done he was gone.

Just on a mini cut to get around 195 or so. Then maintain till I contest prep in August. Met up with Carl and Chris (stayfit2008) on Saturday and threw some weight around, pretty happy, did a 545 rack dead and was pretty comfortable with the weight.

Fuck yeah! The journal I've been waiting for........ Let's do this!!!

[Mac]

My first dead and squat workout in several months has me crippled. Hope yours isn't as debilitating.

[bodyhard]

Fuck yeah! The journal I've been waiting for........ Let's do this!!!

You know this will be like a fucking marriage till death do us part! But let me tell ya when this becomes my official journal, I will post my beginning photos, videos on my lifts and my progress.


You see I grow so fast and get so strong so quickly that they accuse me of e stats LMFAO!!


My first dead and squat workout in several months has me crippled. Hope yours isn't as debilitating.

In all honesty MT, my ability to recover is insane, I don't know why that is and I won't question it, although I will admit I did go to the doc to have myself checked as I thought I wasn't normal. You see I seem to be going backwards, had low test when I was young, my recovery was shitty etc etc and as I am getting older my test is higher and my ability to recovery is much better.

The doc told me although it is not normal it is not uncommon, enjoy it while I can it wont last forever :)

[Capt_lou]

Looking fucking strong John!

[bodyhard]

Looking fucking strong John!

This is what scares me a bit man, I feel strong and want to move mountains, but my pelvis is always on my fucking mind I really have to learn to say fuck it and just do it, if it gives, it gives. I have to stop fucking babying this shit.

Although I never really listen to the doctors, if I did I would still be in a wheelchair today. But for some fucking reason I can't get it out of the back of my mind when he said my pelvis could cave in any day and I could be back in the chair. FUCKING doctor, why would he have to say that to me? The fucker should die a slow and agonizing death!

[Bob45]

Take it easy man. Don't worry about babying it for a while. Your doing good now. It will come fast enough.

[Mac]

Don't believe all doctors. I was not supposed to live past 25 according to my former doctor. Another told me my wife wouldn't die from her problem and she did.

Stay strong.

It's going to take some time before you get that confidence back in your body. Slow progression is the way for you to go right now, you can still do light weight and have a lot of intensity, it's just not as fun lol

My wife's uncle was supposed to die 3 years ago according to the doctors. They had given him 3 months.

[Mac]

I was told I was in an advanced stage of Crohn's disease at age 16.

[bodyhard]

Damn fucking doctors, not knocking them as they save many of lives and I respect the shit out of them, just that they can really mess up your head with a few words.

[Baldiewonkanobi]

John, send Doctor Mortimer your pelvic scans for his evaluation. I probably could conclude that they would be a great fire starter. Gonna rain in L.A. next week.

Nah I am just a dumb fuck!

[bodyhard]

Fuck, awake at 6:00 am I never wake up this early!!

[Mac]

Half the day is gone by 6am.

[bodyhard]

Half the day is gone by 6am.


Nah man, I normally get up at 9 or 10. I have no fucking idea why I am awake this early, well I at least got to see my 7 year old nephew take the bus to school.

[freebirdmac]

At 6am I'm already working :)

[bodyhard]

At 6am I'm already working :)


OK no knock to you old folks but is this what old people do, get up early in the fucking morning? I mean seriously? Or do you HAVE to get up?

[freebirdmac]

OK no knock to you old folks but is this what old people do, get up early in the fucking morning? I mean seriously? Or do you HAVE to get up?

If I want to get paid and not work until 6pm or later then yes, I have to get up. When I retire I'll adopt hours closer to yours.

[Capt_lou]

I am like you, I hate getting up before 9, but fucking work makes me get up close to 6:30.

[bodyhard]

If I want to get paid and not work until 6pm or later then yes, I have to get up. When I retire I'll adopt hours closer to yours.


Ahh OK at least it is for work, I know some people, my sister for example she is up at 5:00 AM everyday! When I ask her why the fuck she is up so early she says she likes to get her day started early :eek: And get this, she doesn't work!

[Mac]

OK no knock to you old folks but is this what old people do, get up early in the fucking morning? I mean seriously? Or do you HAVE to get up?

Seriously, when you go to bed at 9pm, by 5 am I have had enough sleep and ready to get up.

But I can sleep in as well as the next one can. I don't HAVE to get up since I am self-employed.

[bodyhard]

I am like you, I hate getting up before 9, but fucking work makes me get up close to 6:30.


Man if it is for work I fully understand, I used to get up at 5:30 when I was working in wall street. I had to be at work by 7:00 AM.

Work wise I fully understand, it is the getting up early for no fucking reason other than just getting the day started that I will never understand. Weekends? Shit I get up like 12 or 1.

[bodyhard]

Seriously, when you go to bed at 9pm, by 5 am I have had enough sleep and ready to get up.

OK I have to ask this, if you are self-employed, and you can get up at anytime, why are you in bed by 9 pm??????

[Capt_lou]

OK I have to ask this, if you are self-employed, and you can get up at anytime, why are you in bed by 9 pm??????

Seriously I still have to eat 1 more time after 9 lol. I can sleep when I am dead :yep:

When are you going to dwell in the PIT man. We have some regulars in there that are funny ass hell, but there are also some mother fuckers in there that know thier shit man. And then they have some fuckers in there that suck ass literally LOL.

But, just like the streets, you need to earn your respect, if you are soft or a bullshitter they will eat you alive on the net of course :D

I'll get there, I do all of my posting at work and everytime I load a fucking page it gives me a error that flash player needs to be installed. Since I don't have admin rights on my work machine it is fucking annoying as hell. I am due to get a new laptop in a couple weeks and will see if the help desk can load it for me.

[Mac]

OK I have to ask this, if you are self-employed, and you can get up at anytime, why are you in bed by 9 pm??????

To hook up with my girl for an hour or so.

To get a good night sleep that us old fucks need to do this game and survive.

[freebirdmac]

I will wake up at 5am on my days off. It's habit. What my body is used to. So I'll eat, surf the web, watch some tv, then take a nice long nap!

Ahh for pussy I would be up at the crack of dawn :D

You know my father and grandfather always said that old folks should sleep less, like 4 -5 hours or so.

I am not sure if that works for me as I need my sleep to gain my size, I am an ecto and sleep is important.

But back to your answer if you can get up at whatever time, hence you are self employed, why can't you hit the sack at the very least 11:00 PM and get up at 8:00 AM? That still give you 9 hours of sleep, plenty.

[Bob45]

I seem to get at 7:00-7:30 no matter what. Even on the weekends. I can't sleep during the day. If I stay out all night I may get up at 10 the latest. Plus I always have to get up and piss which makes things worse.

[Mac]

I guess I could easily do that but it just never fit my schedule.

I have many customers in Australia and New Zealand and I got used to getting up early to handle their email support questions and not make them wait another day. If I waited until 9am, they're all gone home and ready to go to sleep. While I don't HAVE to get up and do that, it gives my business image a plus.

Some nights I don't get to bed until 11pm and sleep into 7am, GASP. In the summer, I would never be in bed to go to sleep before 11pm. Everybody is out of the house by 6am, so why waste that time?

[Baldiewonkanobi]

Fuck, awake at 6:00 am I never wake up this early!!


I have not slept in that late since recovering from my last surgery. Up a 2am this morning (fell asleep at 8) did some paper work, jumped in here for a while, had a 50 gram shot of whey....3:30 fell back to sleep until 5:30.

Sorry man but that shit will never happen, and if by a slight remote chance I do get old and behave like you old farts there is a nickle plated burner I keep that would put an end to my misery.

But till then, you're all a bunch of old men looking for a retirement home already :D :D

[gman]

I got old early...I have been going to bed at 10 or so and getting up at 5-6 for years.

I could get wasted and stay up until 4, and my damn body would still wake up at 5. I cannot sleep in no matter how much I want or need to

Must be why everyone called me dad at the gym that I owned.

When I was growing up my parents always told me to act my age.

I would TRY and whoop you with my hands but they're the tools to my trade so I will use these instead.

As of this point none, just tightness on the pelvis but I am expecting that.

[Mac]

Damn man you wanna beat me to a pulp with nun-chucks?

No, I would never do anything like that. You're my new intarnet friend. Maybe to pieces, but no pulp. I don't even like pulp in my OJ.

Shit you could take this ol' man with both hand behinds your back.

Hey I never EVER underestimate my opponent.

Here is a video of me talking about one of my fights, well not a fight a broke this motherfucker up with one hit.

Just so you know this guy owed me money for years he went around telling people that I was going to fuck him up and I never said that. But since he was talking shit I said as soon as I see him I would hit him

I did not know I was being recorded by one of my friends, the lady hiding her face is my wife.

Nah doubt that larges measurement my arms were (in the pic I post) were 17"

Thats what I am talking about, some of the disgusting mushy crap in the masters gets me sick. So much sugar coating and straight up LYING is enough to make me puke.

I mean if I look like crap tell me, I want to know, how fucking else am I suppose to improve if I don't know I look like shit.

Or if I have a lagging body part why tell me "You look great keep doing what you are doing"? I need to hear you say, xx bodypart looks good but you need to definitely work on xx bodypart.

Or why the fuck are you doing xx exercise and not doing xx exercise. Not look at my routine and always tell me "Waya to go great workout, ohh please enough with all the bullshit already Jesus fucking Christ!

Tonight the gym was pretty empty, only a few people training. I start to do my bench and this guys askes me if he could join in? I thought to myself WTF, there are 5 bench presses and you are asking me if you can join in???

I said dude there are other benches use those. He then tells me yeah but I like to work in with people. At this point I am annoyed so I told him, dude are you fucking serious? I couldn't believe it, but he says yeah and started pressing me to let him workout with me. I really was trying to be nice but I can only take so much so I told to get the fuck out of my face before I fucking move him out of my space.

My heart started racing and I know where that leads to, but he didn't react he gave me a WTF look and then walked away.

Steve behind the juice bar was like seriously man I thought you were gonna go 7 30 on this guy.

[Mac]

You just can't get away from the idiots no matter where you go.

I bet he won't bother you again.

In all honesty I don't know why he would ask to work in with me, seriously there were 4 other benches free. Why would anyone ask to work in with somebody in that fashion?


At least John didn't know at the time that the guy was gay :rolleyes:

He wasn't gay, or at least I don't think so. The last time a guy hit on me at Mid-City gym I jumped over the counter (I was working at the gym at the time) and beat his ass and I got arrested.

BTW, I did flat benches for the first time in a year. I didn't want you to think I was a pussy and can't stand the pain. I won't say how much I used.

It was your inspiration that caused me to do them. It felt good and reminded me of the 'old days '

You know I wont advocate doing what I do, honestly because I think I am just really fucking retarded.

Train smart man, if you feel pain don't keep doing it, although I should practice what I preach cause I wont allow pain to stop me from training.

But props to you for taking the dive and just fucking doing it.

put his hands on me.



That's a whole different story right there. Gay or not.

Well he didn't hit me, let me clarify. He came up to me, asked me to make him a shake (I was at the juice bar) he started making small talk, asking me how did I build my arms etc etc. I had no idea he was coming on to me, my gaydar sucks ass and I don't pay attention to shit like that. He kept complimenting me and then it started getting weird, he then reached over and placed his hand over my chest and said "You have a really nice chest"
Thats when I jumped over the counter and proceeded to beat his ass and the gym staff pulled me off of him and someone called the cops.

Although I got arrested that day, the charges were dropped and I did not do any time.

[bodyhard]

My freaking cardio.

10 Sprints roughly 50 yards each.

Fuck this was really taxing.

[Bob45]

Gaydar sucks. Very funny!

45 minute elliptical, damn was this shit boring!

[freebirdmac]

45 minute elliptical, damn was this shit boring!

Do 20 minute of ball busting intervals with a 5 minute warmup and 5 minute cool down. Much less boring. Especially if you do your own program and have to watch the time and adjust your own levels.

I really despise cardio I don't even need it, but I have been pretty angry of late and the release is really good for me.

Early morning run, kid of misty outside so the run was great! Saw some old people, well about my age running as well and thought to myself, good seems like they must have a new years resolution!

Stopped at my boys house and hit the bag for almost an hour.

Going to the movies now to watch Legion.

[Mac]

Was that a heavy bag or speed bag? I miss the speed bag at my old gym in Erie.

Heavy bag, felt good, I bent the shit out of it!

Legion was NOT worth going to the movies to see, that is all I am saying :(

[Mac]

How the fuck do you bend a heavy bag?

I guess if there's someone that can do it, it's you bro.

[bodyhard]

dude you never bend a heavy bag? Hit that shit hard in the middle with a hook, if you have power it bends.

When I was younger I thought moving the bag meant power but as I fought more and more and my power in my punches grew I learned to harness the power from my legs, hip and lats.


45 minute elliptical, this time brought my Ipod, and killed it!

[Mac]

Nope. I never hit the heavy bag anymore.

When it recoils it knocks me over since it weighs more than me.

Now the speed bag is what I love to hit and then hear the dumb fucks in the gym complain about how loud it is.

Then one of them DFs comes over and asks, ' where did you learn to do that ? and can you teach me? I want to bend them fuckers in half like you do the heavy bag.

Damn my dude how heavy is the heavy bag you hit? I never really hit the speed bag I do hit the speedball.

[Bob45]

I wish my elbows could still stand hitting the heavy bag. I used to love doing that. Too many years of cleaning carpets.

[Mac]

Damn my dude

hmmmm...

Anyways, its heavy. But seriously, my joints were always sore from lifting so f'n heavy, it hurt to hit it [hard].

Fuck fell asleep for 4 hours, missed the Jets game!!


Seriously you guys are confusing the shit out of me. Are you both telling me that, 1) years of cleaning carpets and 2) lifting heavy causes pain on your joints when you hit the bag????

I am not making the connection, especially the lifting heavy. I have been lifting heavy my whole life wel over 20 years and hitting the bag doesn't hurt at all.

Also MT I am lost why did you say hmm to Damn my dude? :confused:

The bag I hit is a 150lbs heavy bag heaviest I've hit is a 200lbs heavy bag.

John, hitting the heavy bag hurts my elbows and wrists. WTF can I say. Maybe I need to start taking some Therajoint or something.

The hmmmmm... was my attempt at humor over the statement, my dude.

You need some more fucking sleep bro.

Maybe if I slept for 4 fucking hours during the day my joints wouldn't hurt hitting the heavy bag.

I am another loyal user of Flex. If I don't take it for a day I swear my body feels completely different.

[Mac]

I see several supplements for joints with Flex in the name. Can you point me to the one you are referring too?

[bodyhard]

Damn just got up, it is pouring out there! Watched 2012 last night pretty good.

I didn't think you would mess with oil. That's just f'd up.

Are you cycling? I am not, it's been 23 years since I last had some test.

No I am not I am considering starting this year. I have never ever taken any steroids I have done it naturally my whole lifting career (if you can call it a career)

But I have been doing a lot of research on it and more than likely after my first natural show this year I will start. But only after I compete naturally first I owe that to myself.

[Mac]

I did one 6 week of test with no PCT. No one knew anything about that back then. I vowed never to do it again. During the cycle, my son was conceived.

Stay natural and keep what you have working.

Why wont you do it again? I am just curious you don't need to answer it if you don't want, i will understand.

[HeavyDutyGuy]

John for a natural, you built a very impessive physique. Might as well play that out and see where it takes you. Now if you start needing HRT, then that changes things... I was natuiral til age 40, except for a couple runs on andro- that kinda depressed my test levels and started getting low test symptoms (non bodybuilding related), stil was doing half squats with 585, etc, but after HRT, energy, sex drive and mood all increased. .

[Mac]

At the time I got a bad case of gyno on one side, my nuts ached really really bad for what seemed like forever. A big lump formed in my ass where I injected and that feaked me out big time. That's what I vowed back then.

I might consider it again, only if I can get back on the stage without AAS first.

nah I don't need HRT, I just want to start test cypionate so I can get bigger and get over 200lbs.

But I will train naturally until I reach what I believe will be my genetic potential, or till I can't get any bigger.
