Anastrolozole (sp?)  1 tab every 3 days.... retired several careers... internet boom in the 90's Yes I'm OCD :D Don't assume you are fucked up at all from 600mg test... I just had comprehensive bloods completed as I have a private sports physician in San Fran... ast/alt skewed but not high enough to consider Ultra sound, which I have had several and no issues. Didn't even test for hep as an inexperience Doc would do. Kidneys perfect. Cholesterol disheveled again not enough to warrant medication... increased hematocrit but in range upper. Prolactin elevated from tren and yes tren elevates prolactin caber or promo can pull that down... Thyroid estrogen etc... good. This is 25 years of use...

Care to share the cholesterol numbers? Do u ever think "wtf am i doin this for" when your stickingnyourself eith needles every day? I only pin twice a week and i even think that...

Also, who took those pics?

Great shots ergo.........you should hit up the Masters Nats or the Masters North America.......you`d be in the mix for sure buddy.

Thank Wes... Totally not interested in a Pro card at this point. Just enjoying experimenting on conditioning...

Yes I feel this way... No I will not share my values. The pics are taken by pulling stills off a video. I set my tripod up, adjust, record short video and pull stills from my camera Leica V-Lux 4. Extremely simple. Download into Adobe LightRoom edit post... They look professional, but just camera tripod... All quality cameras allow this simple technique... Between sets while filming in gym I can pull dozens of shots before I'm even rested...

Ergo,

I remember reading your posts back in gh15's forum. Anyway, what is your take on DC training?

I realize that i have been wasting alot of time with higher volume workouts because my nutrition is pretty much on point with my gear but my gains are depressing.
