Hey guys, I’m starting a log to track my progress during this TRT-based massing phase. I meant to get this up after my blood work, but here I am halfway through week two. Better late than never, right?
About Me:
- Age: Mid-40s
- Training Experience: 20+ years of consistent training
- TRT: On regular testosterone replacement therapy for 3 years now (before incorporating any ancillary gear).
Goals:
I’m aiming for a clean, gradual mass gain of 8-10 lbs. I’m not looking to rush the process. If it takes 12 weeks, that’s fine; if it takes longer, I’m okay with that as well. I’ll stop when I either hit my goal or feel like I’ve reached a point where I don’t feel great anymore.
Routine Consistency:
Throughout this phase, there are some elements that will stay the same, including diet, PED intake, supplementation, and general activity levels. I’ll only update if there are any changes or non-compliance days, though those are rare for me.
Diet (Day-to-Day Consistency):
- Meal 1 & 4:
- 12 oz Greek yogurt
- 1 cup mixed berries
- 2 tbsp chia seeds
- 1 tbsp hemp seeds
- 4 tbsp flax seeds
- 1 tbsp almond butter
- Meal 2 (Intra/Post Workout):
- 100g carbs / 80g protein powdered "astronaut food"
- Meal 3:
- 5 oz grilled chicken
- 6 oz Banza pasta
- 3 oz sweet potatoes
- 1 cup cabbage/onion/pepper mix
- 1/2 cup tomatoes (seasonal variation)
- Calorie-free sauce
- Meal 5:
- 5-6 oz lean meat
- 6 oz Banza pasta
- 1-2 cups vegetables (broccoli, cauliflower, etc.)
- Pre-Bed:
- Casein protein
Supplementation:
- N2BM products (with additions specific to my goals)
- Krill oil, Cor Omega
- *Daily Doses* (may adjust slightly):
- 300 mg Testosterone Enanthate (TE)
- 300 mg Primo (Primobolan)
- 175 mg Proviron
- 3 IU Growth Hormone (GH), split morning and evening
Activity Level:
I’m based in the Rocky Mountains at 8,000 feet, so I get plenty of elevation with my daily hikes. My activity routine includes:
- 3 hikes/walks per day (post-meal).
- Total steps: ~11,000/day from hiking.
Pre-Cycle Blood Work:
- HOMA-IR: 0.6
- Total Cholesterol: 116
- All other levels were normal.
Training:
I’ll update my training log as I go. Today was “Push 2” for the week. The main focus during this phase is hypertrophy and strength, with an emphasis on slow and steady progress. No extreme or rapid bulking here – just gradual, quality muscle gain.
