Ninth Physique Update: Saturday July 20th, 2019

Today’s Weight (7/20/19): 184.9#
Last Update Weight (7/13/19): 188.4#
Total Weight Change: -3.5#
Days Left to Show: 70

This update marks 10 weeks out from show day - I can’t believe how quickly the time has gone by and that I’ve reached the halfway point of my prep! The scale went down 3.5# this week, my physique took another stride forward in leanness, hardness, detail, and separation, and another week of total adherence to all aspects of the protocol paid dividends. There was a lot to address and a lot of adjustments made for this week’s update so hopefully I’ve covered everything:
We made reductions to the diet even though weight loss has been rapid since we want to end ure progress doesn’t stall. If it continues at this pace we will add food back in starting 8 weeks out until 6 weeks out then go back to a more intense dieting protocol for the final 6 weeks. We’re beginning to remove shakes in favor of Whole Foods so the majority of protein and carb powders were removed. The schedule remained the same - low days are Sunday, Monday, and Thursday and high days are still Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday - but my macro profiles changed and are as follows with alterations in parentheses:
HIGH DAY TOTAL MACROS, TRAINING DAYS: 3,756 cals, 78 F, 349 C, 418 P (-372 cals, 2 F, 39 C, 41 P)
HIGH DAY TOTAL MACROS, OFF DAYS: 3,720 cals, 78 F, 349 C, 410 P (-332 cals, 2 F, 28 C, 49 P)
LOW DAY TOTAL MACROS, TRAINING DAYS: 3,140 cals, 68 F, 238 C, 394 P (-530 cals, 4 F, 65 C, 54 P)
LOW DAY TOTAL MACROS, OFF DAYS: 3,108 cals, 68 F, 237 C, 386 P (-486 cals, 4 F, 55 C, 54 P)
We swapped out my low day for a refeed day on Sunday to give the metabolism a shock. I have been getting a burger, fries, and dessert to share with my girl for a cheat meal once a week but this is the first full refeed day. We did pancakes and syrup with an egg and egg white scramble with ketchup for breakfast, added extra rice and chicken to my pre-workout meal, added 25 g carbs to my post workout shake, had a cheeseburger and fries from five guys for the post workout meal, had extra rice and avocado in meal 5, and had a big bowl of oatmeal, peanut butter, with another egg and egg white scramble with ketchup for meal 6. I was happy as a pig in shit!
Major changes were made to the PED protocol. NPP and TBol were removed - my last shot of NPP was Thursday 7/18 and my last capsule of TBol is Tuesday 7/23. Trenbolone Acetate, Drostanolone Propionate, and Methenolone Enanthate were all added in with the first shot on Saturday 7/20. Clenbuterol is being raised from 37.5 mcg to 50 mcg daily. Testosterone Cypionate, Equipoise, Aromasin, and Growth Hormone remained the same. The tentative PED protocol for the next 2 weeks is:
10 - 8 WEEKS OUT
1000mg Test Cyp PW (250mg M, W, Th, Sa)
800 mg Equipoise PW (200mg M, W, Th, Sa)
400 mg Tren Ace PW (100mg M, W, Th, Sa)
400 mg Masteron PW (100mg M, W, Th, Sa)
300 mg Primobolan PW (75mg M, W, Th, Sa)
4 iu GH ED (2 iu upon waking, 2 iu pre-workout)
50 mcg Clenbuterol ED (25 mcg upon waking and 25 mcg with meal 3)
12.5 mg Aromasin EOD
An issue we faced this week was a sudden and steep decline in strength. I had been maintaining and even increasing my strength on some lifts thus far but around the halfway point of all my workouts this week my strength would dip significantly. This is to be expected but we don’t want it to be too dramatic and/or start a consistent downward trend in strength as it could be a sign that we’re losing muscle tissue. If the trend continues for another week or 2 despite the PED changes and refeed day then we’ll address it with adjustments to the training protocol.

Progress photos are attached.

Only way to show up man! Why go through all the hard work and spend all the money to not come in at the best of your condition. Never got the guys that still look 6+ weeks out and get up there. You are already in better condition than a lot of guys that do local/state level shows IMO.

Thanks for the kind words man!! Consistency is definitely the biggest key to success in bodybuilding in my experience, albeit rather limited experience lol, thus far. I appreciate you following along brother!

I could not agree with you more. I mean, really, if you’re gonna do a show how do you NOT go all in, especially when you know that you’re going to be on a stage in your underwear flexing in front of a bunch of random people and judges whose sole purpose is to criticize your physique lol.
Thanks man! Honestly my coach is telling me the same thing - that I’m already more conditioned than most competitors will be at the show I’m competing in. But we’re not going to compete against the other competitors we’re gonna compete against me and just come in as peeled, dry, hard, and detailed as I possibly can. Thanks again for the support and for following along - it helps a lot having you guys post up encouragement and support. It’s truly appreciated!

Wow time really flies!! I can’t believe I’m just 9 weeks out from my show. This has already been one of the most challenging but rewarding endeavors I’ve taken on in my life thus far and I can’t wait to see the final result!
We had another solid week of progress. The scale went down a pound and my physique took another substantial stride in the right direction. My coach and I feel that the Tren, Primobolan, and Masteron have already had a marked effect on my physique and are beginning to provide that dry, hard, vascular, and full look they are renowned for bringing to a lean physique.
We faced a few obstacles this week. First, my sleep quality took a turn for the worst and I’ve only been getting 4 - 5 hours of straight sleep a night followed by another 3 hours of interrupted sleep where I wake up what seems like every few minutes. Also, I had a couple tweaks in the gym - a muscle pull in my right serratus/intercostal area leg pressing and a low back spasm that has left me sore. In addition, I had my first really bad shot of the prep in my right shoulder that left the area bruised, red, and inflamed (it appears washed out and watery in my progress photos). I’ve been taking as little Advil as possible to keep the pain and inflammation in these areas at a level that allows me to continue training without reducing the intensity whatsoever - now is NOT THE TIME where I can ease off the pedal and as long as I can tolerate the pain I’m going to keep training at my normal volume and intensity. Finally, keeping my strength up has been a serious challenge, however, with the addition of Tren, Primo, and Masteron (mostly the Tren lol), I’ve been able to regain most of the strength I lost over the past week although I still start to take a dip in strength at the tail end of my workouts. None of these challenges were things I didn’t expect to confront but I want to share all the good and bad experiences in my prep to give others who are considering competing for their first time some insight on what they can expect.
Now on to the positives. I had another week of complete adherence to the protocol. The daily posing practice and weekly posing tutorials are really paying off IMO and I feel I’m beginning to present my physique in a more favorable and professional manner. We made NO adjustments to any aspect of the protocol since we feel we are ahead of schedule and things are progressing exactly as we want them to. And finally, the best part of the week was my coach telling me he wanted me to “really enjoy” a cheat meal today in place of my normal post workout meal (beef, potato, and broccoli). So, after much consideration, my girl and I headed to Five Guys where I had a bacon cheeseburger, regular fries, and a few peanuts followed by a stop at Cold Stone for a “Gotta Have It” fat free vanilla frozen yogurt with cookie dough topping. IT WAS GLORIOUS lolol!!!
Finally, I want to mention something I haven’t yet but is probably pertinent information: my progress photos are ALWAYS taken upon waking in a fasted state. This is done to eliminate as many variables as possible and provide my coach with a look at my physique in the same state at about the same time every week. With that said, progress photos are attached.

My coach and I feel that the Tren, Primobolan, and Masteron have already had a marked effect on my physique and are beginning to provide that dry, hard, vascular, and full look they are renowned for bringing to a lean physique.
We faced a few obstacles this week. First, my sleep quality took a turn for the worst and I’ve only been getting 4 - 5 hours of straight sleep a night followed by another 3 hours of interrupted sleep where I wake up what seems like every few minutes. Also, I had a couple tweaks in the gym - a muscle pull in my right serratus/intercostal area leg pressing and a low back spasm that has left me sore. In addition, I had my first really bad shot of the prep in my right shoulder that left the area bruised, red, and inflamed (it appears washed out and watery in my progress photos). I’ve been taking as little Advil as possible to keep the pain and inflammation in these areas at a level that allows me to continue training without reducing the intensity whatsoever - now is NOT THE TIME where I can ease off the pedal and as long as I can tolerate the pain I’m going to keep training at my normal volume and intensity. Finally, keeping my strength up has been a serious challenge, however, with the addition of Tren, Primo, and Masteron (mostly the Tren lol), I’ve been able to regain most of the strength I lost over the past week although I still start to take a dip in strength at the tail end of my workouts. None of these challenges were things I didn’t expect to confront but I want to share all the good and bad experiences in my prep to give others who are considering competing for their first time some insight on what they can expect.
Now on to the positives. I had another week of complete adherence to the protocol. The daily posing practice and weekly posing tutorials are really paying off IMO and I feel I’m beginning to present my physique in a more favorable and professional manner. We made NO adjustments to any aspect of the protocol since we feel we are ahead of schedule and things are progressing exactly as we want them to. And finally, the best part of the week was my coach telling me he wanted me to “really enjoy” a cheat meal today in place of my normal post workout meal (beef, potato, and broccoli). So, after much consideration, my girl and I headed to Five Guys where I had a bacon cheeseburger, regular fries, and a few peanuts followed by a stop at Cold Stone for a “Gotta Have It” fat free vanilla frozen yogurt with cookie dough topping. IT WAS GLORIOUS lolol!!!
Finally, I want to mention something I haven’t yet but is probably pertinent information: my progress photos are ALWAYS taken upon waking in a fasted state. This is done to eliminate as many variables as possible and provide my coach with a look at my physique in the same state at about the same time every week. With that said, progress photos are attached.

I just went through your log from start to finish and I gotta say, very impressive man. Your consistency and dedication is very admirable, especially considering how you’re relatively new to all this. Your progress has been awesome. Your before pictures compared to now are night and day. Honestly way better than I would have imagined after seeing your before, not that you looked bad, but now you’re looking amazing. Gonna follow along from here, keep up the great work.
