Im with you there!! working sets last night only 72.5kg x5 for sets of 3, getting tired after the 3rd rep onwards. Afterwards threw 100kg on the bar and blast out 2 reps no problem.
blegh, I personally wouldn't go above 10-12 except for assistance work!
Talking of programs I need to look in to mine as just coming to the end of a return to training program.
Bulgarian split squats are known to bring even the most hardened of gym rats to their kneesMy friend who is a strong man has given me a routine to help improve certain PRs.
Yesterday was my first new legs session. Everything was really light as it's designed to ramp up but included front squats and Bulgarian split squats which admittedly I've never done before but they absolutely wrecked me. I had to leave the gym immediately after and skip BJJ. I was really dizzy, felt sick etc for a good hour at least.
I've had the above but only for minutes at a time or after a truly monstrous session but never for so long and after such a mild session.
It's only my second week back post covid (which I barely had any symptoms with) and last week was light but still tough (albeit with my regular routine). I'm hoping it was just a weird blip of a day.
Almost certainly.Different topic, do you reckon Arnie is on TRt after the years of abuse his body underwent with his "supplementation"? Because he looks amazing for his age. In America it seems TRt is given out like sweets.
Almost certainly.
Not only is it very easy for them to get but the doseages and levels they aim for over there are much higher than drs here aim for.
They'll also happily prescribe nandrolone/anavar and various peptides/hgh as long as you pay for it.
PEDs are rife in hollywood so would not surprised and like Tom said you just need the correct dodgy doctor who will almost give you anything.
Let me rephrase that........ I think he's probably on a bit more than trt
Legal to own although there is a grey area as black market stuff could be classed as counterfeit medication and therefore not technically legal to own but no ones going to get into hot water for a couple of bottles of test.Part of me is glad that it's harder to get over here (despite them not being illegal to own?) but I also wish there was more focus on it. HRT is now an accepted issue for women (and so it should! It's devastating hormonally and emotionally), I think there does need to be more focus on it from a male perspective.
That said, I think LIE mentioned it somewhere, it's not something that you just do once and it's fixed, it's for life, and that's a big investment and worry.
I don't know much about trt to be honest. I'm late 20s so the only people that I know have dabbled with it, it wasn't prescribed and they were the ones taking everything under the sun in their early 20s..... let's put it that way lol
