But we don't skip leg days.

Haha that's the motto bro! That's some good weight.

Friday was good. And super proud of my wife going to her strong Pilates class today and knocking out their 1000 rep challenge.

No huge progress this week but still trending in the right direction.

Suffering through today, I am paying the price for titrating up my Reta a little too first. Struggling to get any food in today and was miserable this morning. Still got my workout in though. Even if it wasn't as fuelled as it normally is.

You mentioned titrating too fast with the Reta, what did you start with and how fast did you go up?

Week 1 (1mg), Week 2 (2mg), Week 3 (2mg), Week 4 (2.5mg), Week 5 (3mg) Week 6 (3mg).
From what I've read the recommendation is to normally titrate up every 4 weeks on the same dose. I just didn't want to waste any and the recommendation is also use with 30 days once reconstituted. Said quoted post was week 5, but I do also suspect some of my suffering may have been part of my slight addiction to (no sugar) carbonated drinks and/or too big of a singular meal maybe.
3mg this week is feeling ok, so far.

Didn't feel strong or very awake today. Smashed through though. Chest press was a little low today but back was nice and strong.

That whole 'use within 30 days' thing isn’t that strict if it’s stored properly so no need to rush doses just to finish it.

Couple days break for rest and recovery for random illness. Back at it today.

 

[SpoonT]

And taking another rest cause this cold has come back for a second round. Hopefully next week I can fit 5 days again.
