6 Week Shred – Resetting the System

It’s been a while, and I'm looking at myself in Disgust. A few of the orginal guys might remember me but iv been silent for a while.

I started 2025 in decent shape and was proud of the fact that I spent all of 2024 off the booze. Unfortunately, once 2025 rolled around I reintroduced alcohol and it quickly reminded me why I quit in the first place. I don’t drink casually but when I start, I binge, and that turns into multi-day hangovers and zero routine.

Add ADHD burnout on top and I went into full shutdown mode. Gym stopped. Messages ignored. Motivation gone, Work basically didn’t happen.

Over the last few months I’ve rebuilt the foundations with an ADHD coach and a great GP who understands my situation and supports what I’m doing. Now it’s time to prove I can follow through.

This 6 week cut is my happen or not moment.
If I can’t complete it, I won’t be running growth phases again. No more half-cycles just back to clean TRT.

My headspace is still a bit messed up. Low focus, always have a headache yet my bloods are pretty much clean only having high Cholesterol. Also a reason why I trying to do a drop in weight so I can get these numbers back to a better level before any blasts

Stats

  • Age: 42
  • Height: 183cm
  • Current weight: 95.5kg
  • Last body scan: 15.6% (5 months ago – I’ve lost size since)
  • Goal: Drop at least 5% body fat and rebuild training consistency
  • Target weight: 89kg


Outcome Goal

Drop as much body fat as possible while rebuilding strength, structure and discipline.



Current Protocol

  • TRT: 200mg/week split into 2 injections
  • Retatrutide: 4mg/week split into 2
  • HGH: 2IU fasted pre-cardio
  • Pending additions (arriving Monday): Glow, NAD+500, Tesamorelin


Support Supplements

NAC, Berberine, Taurine, Creatine, Glutamine, Fish Oil, Vitamin C


Training Plan

  • Weights: 1 day on / 1 day off
  • Cardio: Daily
I chose this structure because I haven’t trained consistently for a while and recovery will be my limiting factor. Iv been back in the gym the past 2 weeks just getting movement back in and I’m sore, tried and stiff. I know if I try to go to hard this will limit me and stop me from completing it. While this is 6 weeks I’m happy to run this 8 weeks plus as long as I’m sticking to what I set out. I want the foundations right for the growth. And I will look at the training plan if the body starts getting better with recovery and so on.

  • Calories: 1925

This was me last year during my bad time so I'd lost a fair bit of progress now as I said its hard to look at with what I have to rebuild and work my ass into

Skipping full cold plunge for now I’m soft with cold, but I am putting my feet and knees into cold water for 30 seconds on / 30 seconds off when I can.

Noticed again that Retatrutide makes me feel the cold more same thing happened last time and im not one that feels the cold normally

No weights today felt sick yesterday and didn’t want to dig a deeper hole.
