Approved Log My Training Log - Another old man trying to live life as a young man

Have a very slight nausea/stomach feeling so will keep at 1.5mg for another week or two. I know the levels haven't stabilised yet so I'm still building up. Once that feeling goes away I'll work up to 2mg. My idea was to hit the magic sweet spot of effectiveness at 4mg, but will stay lower if it's still working and I'm slowing losing fat.

Is the nausea constant or only after you inject?

@Fletch Elliot I think the true fat loss is probably between 0.5-1kg. I'm trying to keep my defecit around 200-300 cal a day.

I've been reading more on glycogen and water loss, I likely have ~400–600g of glycogen and each gram binds ~3–4 g water, which means 1.5–2.5 kg scale loss when my training stopped and carbs reduced. I'm still likely seeing this in the chart.

I'll know for sure after a couple of weeks training what the real change is.

Ebbs and flows throughout the week, it's only slight, I can still eat without any real issues, just don't want it to get worse where my calories drop too much and or effect training. I haven't noticed it after injecting.

I saw a similar loss at the end of my bulk, dropped 2 kgs very quickly. Should be a nice steady drop in BF% from here....you'll be looking great come holiday time!

Thanks @Fletch Elliot that's certainly the plan, at least I'll be in better shape, prob not ripped like I was wanting. That'll come.

Well still training around my AC joint, skipped lat pull downs and swapped out conventional deadlifts for trapbar variation. Have decided to give BPC 157 and TB 500 a try, hopefully will have that next week and see how it goes.

Great to finally be back on the adductor machine, really need it to help with my range of motion, just took a long time to get over straining it.

Need to get working on my abs, my decline crunches were almost half the volume as last time.

Well not a great start to the day, just got a puncture and will likely be spending my day trying to sort out a new tyre, collection, drop off or pick up etc.

Was really looking forwards to today's session, highly unlikely now.

So much for the tyre sealant, looks like scrapnel!

One of those days hey!

Totally. Recovery truck couldn't make it in the car park, so had to take it the lift at work, that caused some odd faces. Just waiting around now hoping the garage can fix it today. Fingers crossed.
