    Default New female

    Hi Im mel I'm new to this board, I'm 27 years old. I've been on many other boards too I hope to learn something here as well. I've been training for 3 years. I' started off with weight loss than worked my way up to bodybuilding. I'm pretty hard core with my training. I train 5 days . I've run cycles and currently running 25mg turanabol ed + 100mg npp ew for 10 weeks.
    I can tell you guys that I'm currently working on strength ATM so my sets are quite short. For each workout I'tll be between 2-3 sets + 3-4 repetitions each. Once I've managed my strength I will begin to break down my workouts quite a lot.
    I'm also at that stage where I'm adding that extra body fat so their is quite a bit of more work needed.
    Once again if you have anything you'd like to share with me I would really appreciate that . So this is what my routine looks like
    Thanks.

    Welcome. So what are you future goals? Bodybuilding comps? Power/Oly lifting? A stellar physique? General well being?

    Please share your side effects with your supplements if it doesn't make you uncomfortable. I am curious.

    Welcome to RX!

    I had some questions for you:

    - you called out that you're doing short reps - so yes, it looks like you're doing a lot of exercises - I'm curious what your overall volume is, given the number of exercises? Are you seeing good gains in strength from that rep/set schedule? Do you do any deload phase / how long have you been doing this particular schedule?

    - I didn't add up your macros / cals but curious if you said you're lifting fasted in the morning (omg i would die if I did that .. I get violently hungry the minute I start moving around in the morning...) is your meal 1 the first meal post-workout? If yes, have you considered putting some carbs in there as PWO tends to be the optimal time to refeed glycogen?

    - The only real carbs I see in your current diet are from the pasta in Meal 3 - how much & is it enough? Also curious if you're getting any bloat given your biggest carb source is a gluten source? (No I'm not a gluten-free nut - just have been dieting for decades and I find I get more & more sensitive to things as I strip down my diet more & more.)

    - Personally, I'm always going to recommend staying away from "protein-bar" sources of carbs / protein - why do you choose to do the Fiber 1 bars?


    Otherwise - definitely looks like you've got some goals in mind and going after them w/ a vengeance! Are you getting the results you want from this current protocol? What do you have in mind for the next variation / do you switch it up on a particular schedule?

    Hi sass thanks for the reply. I am doing all these exercises and I've only been doing It for a short time. Its only now cos I'm on cycle I'm trying to gain strength. I'm seeing changes I'm getting lean and building mass but it takes time. I noticed that I was over training and not eating enough so now it's so hard I'm trying to squeeze as much food as I can to put on that extra body fat. The meal routine I put up is always different I change it around depending on my workouts. After my workouts I usually have a protein shake than eat straight after.
    Yes I do switch up my routine every few weeks .Im working on putting on some mass and getting lean ATM

    Yes that's me...and thanks.
    I'm right there with Sassy in that I am famished first thing. I've been eating the same oats/eggs pancake since 2011 and I think my body would go into shock if I changed up my first meal, LOL!

    Now I do have several friends who train fasted and love it, so if it works and you're loving it, then keep doing it. I think it's interesting that our bodies are all so different and what works well for some doesn't work at all for others.

    Yep - I have a friend who THRIVES at 4 am, trains fasted and just LOVES it. I do pretty much every thing I can to stay in bed as long as I can. When it comes to competition time and I gotta do 5 am cardio, I have to change up my routine to get in bed by drop-down-dead 10 pm and mentally threaten myself w/ "If you don't do someone else on stage is going to do it and kick your ass on show day", pretty much every morning. I have no idea how you guys do it, but if it rocks your world, gofurit!

    Also, since you're already playing on the dark side, you might peruse the Women & Drugs article stickied on the Fem Chem forum in this section of the site.
