I love training mainly as a tool to keep me right, I am also considering going back on a bit of test in December for the same purposes not because I have lost some size and strength which sucks but for a more positive head, my thoughts have been very negative at times lately.

For best bodybuilding results, are you a low, medium or high volume guy?

If testosterone testing was as easy as glucose monitoring I'd consider going the more natural route for a bit, with supplements and drugs that only enhance natural production. Even low dose true TRT isn't physiological since the levels don't really change through the day.

It may have nothing to do with test. I've been much more cynical and negative lately as well. I think we all have been.
 

I've heard even serious competitors how good they feel mentally after a cycle, like a load off their shoulders. But usually in a few months they start missing it again :D

Re Dumbbells - They're a variation of the Thompson Fatbell, which was based off something else -

Don't like the idea of almost being trapped in the bell, I want to be able to ditch a lift quick if need be.

This was interesting on Jay's channel -

It's a dead zone.

He'd be better off using lighter weights more consistently in order to build muscle instead of obsessing over lifting numbers.

How many times do you have to be able to rep 315 to get 405?  I would say at least eight.

"Ex-husband of disgraced local assistant district attorney" is a headline I  could see in the future if BHank starts fucking with the peptide business.

CIA Director John Ratcliffe confirms the suspect accused of shooting two National Guard members near the White House once worked with U.S. partner forces — including the CIA.

"In the wake of the disastrous Biden withdrawal from Afghanistan, the Biden administration justified bringing the alleged shooter to the United States in September 2021 due to his prior work with the U.S. government, including CIA, as a member of a partner force in Kandahar, which ended shortly following the chaotic evacuation," Ratcliffe says."

The individual—and so many others—should have never been allowed to come here. Our citizens and service members deserve far better than to endure the ongoing fallout from the Biden administration’s catastrophic failures," he added.

Can you write a bit more on the pancreatitis? What caused it? Were there any warning signs if so what were they?

Last december I suddenly got 10/10 pain in my stomach very suddenly.  Screamed like an idiot in my apartment until paramedics came 40 minutes later, neighbors were knocking to see wtf was going on, embarrassing. Acute pancreatitis. Usually it's caused by alcohol, without checking I think in like 90% of cases. Although I love rec drugs, don't have the budget to really do a lot of them them though, but I haven't really drank alcohol in 20 years, believe it or not. They took that alcohol test that shows if you drink and I was negative.  Then they hypothesized it was caused by gallbladder stones, images showed a few small ones. They recommended gallbladder removal. I hesitated and I'd read that the drug bodybuilders use for liver protection TUDCA or UDCA which they use more in medicine. Suggested to doc and he immediately wrote a years script. But then I had further attacks and so I went through the surgery a few months ago. But I still have severe stomach and upper back pains periodically; I'm actually on a hospital bed right now since I had terrible pain last night. They say they don't think I have pancreatitis as such right now. I had 3 cysts on my pancreas instead a few months ago and new images shows there's one small cyst that seems to be self-destroying. I have this fluid IV in my arm after which I can go home. Some drugs can cause pancreatitis, like the Ozempic and looking at lists I see estrogen as listed as one too. So there might be a PED connection, hard to say. I'm playing witch doctor and taking mega dosed melatonin and methylene blue and other antioxidants that may protect the pancreas. Exogenous insulin too to theoretically take some load off the organ, plus it's an antioxidant as well. Repeated pancreatitis damages the pancreas which then leads to diabetes.
