Approved Log My Training Log - Binnie

[Binnie]

Hey guys,

Quick intro about myself…

I’m 38 years old and I’ve been weight training on and off for about 19 years (mostly off) but have been pretty consistent last 5-6 years.

Decided start of last year to become enhanced as I felt continued progression was becoming extremely difficult.

I’m currently a few weeks into running a cycle of 350mg Test + 150 EQ.

My diet is 75% on point as I have a planned first 3 meals focusing on carbs and protein from mostly clean sources then eat dinner with my family.

My maintenance calories at the moment are approximately 3500.

I’m pretty active during the day as I have 6 kids and 3 dogs. I get over 10,000 steps daily without trying.

Training wise I usually and currently run my version of PUSH PULL LEGS 6 days a week in my home gym. It’s nothing too fancy but gets the job done for me.

Looking forward to logging and maybe getting some feedback and advice from more experienced lifters along the way.

Cheers!

Decided last year to jump on self prescribed TRT starting at 250mg per week for a few months but at the end of the year I ran a 20 week cutting cycle were I titrated up to 400mg test + 200mg Mast and 20mg Anavar daily for the last 6 weeks.

I ran an 8 week health phase back at 250mg Test only afterwards and have just started a bulking cycle starting at 350mg Test + 150 EQ.

More EQ

 

[Binnie]

More EQ

I’m definitely going to titrate the EQ up but since it’s my first time running it I wanted to start at a low dose to see how I feel and what if any sides I have.

 

[Binnie]

Day 2: Weight update (Fasted and after using the bathroom) 79.0KG

I pushed yesterdays calories to approximately 3900 with higher than usual carbs.

My plan moving forward is to hit around 4000 calories per day and hopefully I will see the scale start to move up. If it moves too fast I will knock the food back down slightly.

Only way to go if using a new compound,very smart move bro.

Been running current dose of 350 Test E + 150 EQ for 3 weeks. So far no sides and feeling good strength increasing slightly with added food also helping.

After a few more weeks will bump up both Test and EQ to maybe 450 Test + 300 EQ see how that goes then can always bump up again in the future.

Considering adding in low dose NPP at some as well possibly..

Seems like a good plan bro,you are not going to get much out of low dose NPP that you can't get just by adding that amount of EQ imo.i was recently running 500 test e,400 EQ without any sides at all.i will run a gram of test with 700 EQ on the next EQ cycle.no need for other compounds or orals at that.though I like the idea of running a test base,a dht (example;Masteron)and a 19 nor(tren) ,makes for awesome cycle if you know your dose limits.can be deca,or NPP,and primo or mast.

Was mainly thinking about adding the NPP as I’ve heard it’s good for joint support. Have had some elbow issues recently but maybe just upping the test would suffice with extra fluid retention plus extra carbs holding more glycogen..?

Will assess few weeks after the first titration see how I feel I guess.

 

[seventies voodoojuice]

Yeah NPP ain't that great for joints,you ideally run deca for that ,I find around 200mg gives joint relief though it's only temporary,BPC 157 peptide is what you need maybee.

Ahh ok I see. Not sure if I want to get into peptides just yet, still learning the ropes and experimenting with basic AAS.

May even be able to improve joints by adjusting certain training techniques and nutrition/ supplements ie fish oil etc.

Will assess and workout a plan for moving forward in the coming weeks.

Maybe even just gaining a little extra body fat over the coming months may help with joints hopefully. I’m fine with getting a little chubby through this gaining phase as I can always lose the fat at the end of the year..

Day 3: Training Complete

Pull Day B:

10 minute warm up

Close grip Lat pull down 3x15

BB bent over row 3x12

BB shrugs 3x20

DB reverse fly 3x12

DB Concentration bicep curl 3x12

Cable EZ bar bicep curl 3x12

Alternate hammer curl drop set AMRAP starting with 20kgs working down

With back movements I’ve really started trying to focus on the contraction and even hold for a second on most movements.

My Biceps are probably my weakest body part and I’m definitely open to any suggestions on how to improve training them to get them to grow more.

 

[Binnie]

Day: 4 Training Complete

Push Day A:

Dips 3x15 (body weight)

Incline DB press 3x12 (25kg each)

Seated Cable Fly 3x15 (40kg)

Seated Overhead Smith Machine Press 3x12 (55kg) (last set AMRAP 18 reps)

DB Lateral Raise 3x12 (12.5kg)

Tricep Cable Pushdown 3x18 (75kg)

Overhead Tricep Cable Extension 3x20 (65kg)

Weights used are the 2 working sets most exercises I do the first set at a slightly lower weight to prime the muscles, joints, ligaments, CNS etc.

Dips are only body weight but I go slow controlled and lower my body as much as possible to get a good stretch at the bottom.

Day 5: Training Complete

Leg Day:

10 minute warm up

DB Lunges 3x14 (20kg each hand)

RDL 3x10 (60kg)

Lying Leg Curl 3x12 (35kg)

Seated Leg Extension 3x12 (80kg)

Seated Leg Extension 3x16 (65kg)

Calf raise on Smith Machine 3x20 (115kg)

Besides my biceps I think my legs are my weakest body part size wise.

I have a very basic home gym setup for leg training which to some extent holds me back I think.

Although maybe I’m just not training legs intensely enough. Considering moving to a higher rep range for slightly lower weights moving forward.

You've got a lean physique and potential to gain some good quality size @Binnie

Do you find the pre-workout still helps much? I used to take it but after a while the kick started fading. I’m just guessing it’s just caffeine tolerance building up.
