Approved Log My Training Log - Fit, Filthy & Forty

So after a busy as phuk week working away and no training 😔 I’m back into it!

Kicked off my cycle today (and my first cycle at that) and I’m pretty excited for what’s to come.. 💪🏼

For the next weeks I’ll be running:
Test E @ 400mg/week
Mast E @ 200mg/week
Anavar @ 50mg/day

All my gear supplied by @gearmaniac101 🤌🏼

Injections twice a week. Anavar split into 2 x doses per day. Running Defend cycle support alongside Anavar for the 6 week duration.

Also started a new program today which I made up. Basically an Upper/Lower split, training 4 days per week. 1st went really well and having a planned regime just made me that much more focused as well.

I’m using a free iPhone app called “Ironotes” and it seems pretty bloody good for a freebie once I got the workouts sorted in there. Will be good to track progress and overload moving forward. Cbf typing it out so see some screenshots below 👇🏼

Some exercises I did an extra set where I felt necessary due to gauging strength etc. Will be better from next week when I have a better idea of where I’m currently at.

Bit of meal prep for dinners throughout the fortnight.
Thai Green Curry
170g Basmati, 160g Chicken Breast, Green Beans. Really don’t mind eating the same thing over and over. It tastes good and easy to prep up 👌🏽

Hopped on the scales fasted and post-poo to find that I’ve dropped a little more weight. Pleasantly surprised as last week was all over the shop and my usual routine was completely out the window..

8DCA3209-28A3-421E-8112-812BDF56852B.jpeg

Standard 1st meal oats, frozen blueberries and whey. Had to tame it porridge style because the NutriBullet wakes the Mrs up apparently 🙄

Some whey plus meals throughout the day kept me full and satisfied.

Wrapped up work, pumped my 2nd dose of Anavar and pre then off to the gym for Lower Body 1.

Feeling out some newly incorporated exercises in the plan, and just tinkering with some different rep ranges. Enjoying adding some different exercises and utilising some different pieces of equipment.

Enjoyed the deep ROM on the lever-type leg press, and the single leg curl machine is dope. 🤘🏼

Thanks bro!!

Competing was certainly a different experience. Having a certain goal in mind and a timeframe certainly helped me with motivation, but having never done it before I was really running blind with no expectations as to what I could achieve, I was more interested in seeing how far I could go. Certainly got tough in the final weeks, mentally more than anything. Was a good experience but I probably wouldn’t do it again lol.
Totally understand where you're coming from. I've gone through times when I trained and prepped as if I were going on stage.. **** it's challenging. Reason why I never followed through, too difficult. I have a lot of respect for the dedication and discipline.

Yeah man I’ve seen a lot of people start strong, give the standard instagram updates and hashtags #10weeksout blah blah then all of a sudden drop off because it gets too hard. And it does, it’s extremely hard especially trying to fit in with a “normal” life. I’m stoked I made it to stage, but yeah probs never again

Started off the day with standard first meal. Big glass of water and 20mg Anavar plus support.

Cruisey day at work which seemed to take forever.

150g Chicken Breast, Turkish Bread, Low Fat Cheese and Nandos XXL hot sauce for lunch was delicious. Smashed another 30mg Anavar and support about an hour before training and finishing work..

Upper Body 2 day today. So far I’m digging the new plan. Sessions are a bit longer than what I’m used to but I’m pushing through and enjoying them.

Adding some Creatine back into stack. Will be 10g/day moving forward.

Tamed a prepped meal for dinner and now trying to sort kids out lol.

1st week into cycle and feeling awesome!!
 
End of my first week on cycle and so far so good. Feeling really good and no noticeable or reportable sides as of yet (it’s still early days though).

Training has been great, feeling strong and focused in the gym.

Haven’t made any adjustments to the diet as it seems to be ticking along well and I’m leaning up at a slow and steady rate.

However today just felt a bit flat and hungry so ate a bit more food than usual (no food bender). It’s good knowing that one day of extra food isn’t going to be damaging to my progress 🤘🏼

Few pics below of current fiseek. I always feel I look decent in the mirror then the pics turn out shit lol. Bring on the next 11 weeks!

Which compound will get me a smile and grin like that?

Mate I am so super excited to see what you do on this cycle.

I think you're going to have an aweose transformation
 
Monday 3rd March’s Efforts…

Started off the new week as per usual. Had a smoothie this morning with 70g Oats, 2 x Scoops Whey (52g Protein) and about 60g frozen blueberries 😋 Plus 20g Anavar + 4 Defend Caps for support.

Forgot to weigh in as I’d slept in but I’ll jump on the scales sometime this week. I feel I’m looking good in the mirror so not to concerned with a particular number on the scale atm.

3E5E9DBE-879E-4AA3-A4CE-98622AAC4919.jpeg

150g cooked Basmati Rice, Medium Tin of Tuna w/Chilli Oil, some diced beetroot and chick peas out in the field. Bulk pepper on there too! Simple yet tasty!

About an hour before training I smashed a quick shake, 30g Anavar and some more Defend capsules..

Young fella from the gym wanted to train with me so I had to put my new program on pause for a day and let him take me through a push workout.

Bit more volume than what I’ve been used to lately, and some different exercises, but man the pump was phenomenal haha made me miss higher rep training 😅

Didn’t track the workout but consisted of French Press, Skull Crushers and some crazy Rope Push Down ladder set up and down the stack for Triceps.

Then for chest we hit some flat plate loaded machine press with some rest pause at the end. Cooked my chest straight up. Then onto some incline DB Press, then finished off with some Incline DB Flys and Cable Crossovers.

All in all was a good sesh and I felt pumped as fuark walking outta there! 👌🏽

Home for a prepped meal.

Had my first pin for the week (200 Test/100 Mast) supplied of course by @gearmaniac101 🤌🏼

Then off to bed early to rest and recover 😴
 
Had my Proats for breakfast this morning.
Same ingredients I use in my smoothie but doesn’t wake the Mrs up when I cook it in the microwave vs the NutriBullet firing up at 5.30am 😅🙃

AF670980-52A8-4B84-93A1-F178B206E0B3.jpeg

20g Anavar + 4 x Defend Caps and off to work I went..

Prepped chicken and rice meal for lunch at work plus some snacks.

Consumed protein shake about an hour before training plus 30g Anavar + 4 x Defend Caps.

Back into my new program and today called for Lower Body 1 workout.

Loving that the new app I’m using displays the previous workouts weight/reps etc so will make it easier to keep pushing for progressive overload 🤘🏼

Workout busted me up. I was almost scared going into it but glad I didn’t back out.

Loving the single leg extension machine!! Good being able to focus on each leg and ensure they’re both developing at the same rate.

Rest Day tomorrow then back into in Thursday for Upper Body 2 and 2nd pin for the week!
 
Thursday 6th March Log

Jumped on the scales first thing this morning post poop and coming in at 94.9. Weight steady from last week but diet got a little “loose” over the weekend so would explain no noticeable decrease from previous week..

628E61C3-754A-4883-8C4A-4B46EE18EA05.jpeg

Oats, Greek Yoghurt, Whey and some sugar free Maple for first meal.. plus 20mg Anavar + 4 x Defend Caps

85240E5A-8A8C-4C79-9847-C759E88BFC56.jpeg

Got my meals in during the day. Pumped 30mg Anavar + 4 x Defend Caps with a shake about an hour prior to training.

Pic taken only seconds before I spilled the lot on the floor of the Ute lol. Manage to salvage them! 😅

Into the gym for Upper Body 2. Felt like a good sesh. Now that I’m only training 4 x a week the sessions are definitely longer, but getting through them quite well.

2nd pin for the week today too. 200 Test E, 100 Mast E supplied by @gearmaniac101 🤌🏼

How long are your sessions? I use to do 1.5 to 2hrs, now I'm cutting down to 1hr. My goal is to get to 45mins

Getting up around 1.5hrs I reckon on average bro. I found previous splits weren’t working for me with work/kids etc and I was missing body parts. So now I’m doing Upper/Lower twice a week. With the extra exercises and rest it’s just taking a bit more time
 
Log for Friday 7th March (yeah bit slack I know, life been hectic lately 😓)

Ran outta bloody blueberries 🫐 so had to run a banana smoothie/shake this morning. Was actually thick and delicious so wasn’t even mad 😂

70g Oats, 1 x Frozen Banana, 2 x Scoops Whey. 20mg Anavar + 4 x Defend Caps

58C18DFC-F679-4A00-8EA8-5D8AE8C8909C.jpeg

Had the day off work today, which was good for a bit of downtime. However I find it often throws my routine out a bit considering my meal timing etc is normally based around work.

Had my standard tuna/rice mix for lunch. Cheap and effective and packed with decent macros.

2 Scoops of Pump Juice, 10g Creatine, 30g Anavar + 4 x Defend Caps for preworkout then off for Lower Body 2 at the local Snap Fitness.

Thinking of tweaking my lower body day programming a bit, todays sesh felt like it need some more quad action in there so will make some adjustments in the following week.

5759CACE-8E0C-433A-AD62-F9BBEF58B90C.jpeg

Not a heap of weight on the hack, but I got deep AF and really controlled the movement.

Prepped meal for post workout then treated myself to some extra calories afterwards because I was needing something sweet(ish).

Of my 2nd week on cycle and I feel things are tracking well. Admittedly my diet hasn’t been 100% as “strict” as I would like, so tightening back up this week and introducing some LI cardio into the mix.
 
Good luck with it bro. It can be hard to focus again after some time off, but once you establish a routine it should become easier.

That App looks pretty good, what's it called?
