Thread: Back from the dead... LOG...

What's up everyone..I'm new here, but been around some other forums for a lil while. I've decided to run a log here for accountability.

A little background history... I struggled for over 10years with drug and alcohol addiction..nearly died multiple times. Not anything to be proud of, but learned alot about myself once I got clean. Been 21 months sober and hard drugs free..(gear only now) finally got back into lifting about the same time as being sober... nowadays my life revolves around the gym.. literally, I work the counter at my local gym lol..it's all I see everyday, all-day.. I started this new journey at over 265lbs, fat as hell, and horribly depressed about life in general... Time for change. I'm currently 6'0 244lbs, somewhere in the 20's bf% my guess age 33. I train the following schedule.. chest/tri..back/bis..off..legs.. shoulders/traps..off...repeat..... cardio is 45min 4x per week split between h and l... Diet which I've learned is most important factor in whole lifestyle, and which I had the most trouble with until somewhat recently ...never knew about macros/complex and simple carbs/ amount of protein needed for results..ECT.. I self trt.. my current blast is 500mg test e split @250mg Tuesday, Saturday.. along with NPP @450mg split m,w,f 150mg.. adex @0.5 mg eod...

Goals= its a Marathon not a sprint. 8month cut/recomp... Goal is 12-13% bf and gain some lbm..

Current pics as of July 2018..

I'm here to log my experience, and I hope you come along with me... I'll be posting diet pics, training log, progress pics, and who the hell knows what else..

I think keto is garbage if you want to gain muscle. Imo its not healthy.

Have you thought about carb cycling?

I have thought about it, yet have not yet implemented it..it's a good time to try it tho... If keto is not optimal for my goals, I will not use it..was only considering it for fat loss...thnx for chiming in

I am a girl so mine will be different. But i am just starting my cut and i have the following macros.

Moderate days 206c 247p 54f
High days 257c 247p 54f
Low days 154c 247p 54f

I do HIIT 2X A week and will keep these at least 3 weeks. If i am losing weight I will keep them once i stall i will take away 20c. You can also take away a high carb day or mod day.
