got my latest labs in from quest via the blueprint for athletes testing services i use.

mid July first month of prep and then 1 day before show day were blood draws. amazing to see how much the body changes during a 20 week prep on the inside as well with these lab insights!

note the drop in T, increase in grehlin, drop in leptin, T4 drop, WBC drop and cortisol increase. safe to say that in general the natural of contest prep is not a healthy experience for the body.......but rather a natural part of getting stage lean as we all know. how bad and how long you endure that is what needs be managed and walked on a delicate fine line of course.

i went from 205-175 and 13% to 5.5% in 20 weeks. i am 6'2'', 32 yo

i did not use any drugs of any kind during this prep nor have i ever.
