I started this same log on another board a while back. I like this board too and wanted to be involved on both boards so I thought I would pick it up on here as well. Just a quick background.... I started the other log after blowing out a hammie, and dealing with on going tendonosis, nitis, whatever you want to call it, in my shoulders. And I have a continual problem with my low back (disc issues). Regardless I love to lift weights.
So I say past my prime because since I have turned 40, this shit is a challenge more than ever before. My joints hurt, I get jacked up way more often than in my younger days, and just flat out the whole ordeal is just plain harder. I am sure there are plenty of people genetically better than me that can still go full bore with no problems after 40.... well I ain't one of them. But you know what, that's fine. My goal is simply to try my damnedest to improve from where I am now.... be it strength, body composition, whatever, and if I get on a really good roll maybe I'll do a comp of some sort before it's all over with...
I am now 43. Been on HRT for the last 1.5 years. Have been experimenting with anabolics off and on throughout this time frame. Totally natural leading up to the HRT. Currently just started a cycle of 900 test ew with cyp and sust, and some GH 5 iu pwo. This is the first week. I am about 8 weeks since the hammie injury, and my chiro just told me go ahead and start lifting upper body again. At his advice I had stopped all upper body training for about a month to help the tendonitis. Really since the beginning of the year my upper body training has been hindered from this. So I think that is an OK starting point. Here are pics I took a few days ago. I wanted to have something to compare to as this cycle and my return to training progress. Comments, tips, and smart ass wise cracks welcome.....
