I like the approach to steroid use that you described. In fact, my experience suggests that I was doing something very similar. Since I’ve always trained according to powerlifting schemes and paid much less attention to fitness and bodybuilding, I rarely used steroids like stanozolol...

Yes, I completely agree with this approach because, although some people may have nearly the same weight, the difference in calories they need to consume daily to build muscle mass or lose weight can be significant. One of the reasons for this is the basal metabolic rate, which is largely...

I would add to this list a blood test for homocystein

You mentioned that you want to use the IGF-1 LR3 version. And apparently, this changes the game a bit. Here’s what our friend GPT chat says about it: IGF-1 LR3 is a modified form of IGF-1 that has increased activity compared to regular IGF-1. Unlike standard IGF-1, IGF-1 LR3 has an extended...

I want to clarify what was discussed in the previous episodes...:) Todd Lee in his video is most likely referring to IGFBPs (Insulin-like Growth Factor Binding Proteins) — these are proteins that bind to IGF1 and regulate its activity in the body. Exogenous IGF1, taken externally (for example...

This is the first time I see that you can do a blood test for Myostatin.

Your results are already quite noticeable, even though not much time has passed(y). My question is — why do you have so little fat in your diet? I think this might negatively affect your high-density lipoprotein (HDL) levels.

Honestly, I have my own method for determining calorie intake, and it's quite simple. When people come to me looking to lose weight, I use very basic tools to determine the calorie intake that works for them. The method involves setting an approximate calorie intake that the person will stick to...

Yes, you’re absolutely right, psyllium was a real discovery for me, and it solved a problem that had been unresolved for many years. Yes, I take it with water. Interestingly, there are at least two forms of psyllium. One form is finely ground powder, similar to flour, while the second form is...

For some reason, your photo on the right reminded me of the physique of athletes from Arnold's time. I’m not sure why, maybe it’s the muscle definition and shape, but it feels like you're from that era. Сool!

Wow. Do you have some poof of this tests? Before i found egg protein i was using beef because whey i cant take anymore

I understand that your list and categorization are quite subjective, although they are still valid. However, I would place nandrolone among those compounds that are just as effective as testosterone and methandrostenolone. We all know the classic muscle mass and strength building stack for...

Stretching is a topic that bodybuilders and athletes from other strength sports often overlook. Many neglect it, and the consequences can be severe. I know a lot of people who started training in the 90s and 2000s and didn’t know that stretching was an important part of their routine. As a...

Please share your current shape comrade

I’ve sustained many injuries up until now. On one hand, due to stupidity, and on the other, because I trained in powerlifting too often. But during the times when I really structured my training programs properly, yes, martial arts helped me feel good — agile, light, and enduring, and I didn't...

I think most people follow different training programs. These are the programs that Joe Weider and many bodybuilding magazines used to promote, which advocated for massive volumes and intensity during workouts. For some people, such approaches really work. However, for most people who don't have...

Yes, indeed, it might be worth adding one of the GLP-1 agonists, which can help reduce appetite. This is a real issue for many people, especially when all your energy and focus go into work, and you get tired, losing your willpower. When you also have to think about training and diet, it can...

My experience with fiber and psyllium Guys, I want to share an important experience that really helped improve my digestive system. When I was trying to gain muscle mass and needed to consume around 5000 calories a day, I often faced issues with my gastrointestinal tract, such as diarrhea...

I am quite skeptical about these formulas and trackers in the form of watches. It seems to me that the only reliable way to determine your basal metabolism is to use diagnostics through indirect calorimetry, which measures oxygen consumption and carbon dioxide output for a more accurate...

How you can test or judge about beef protein quality? Very interesting for me
