Fitraver’s Bulk Log (first time drol/dhb run)

[Fitraver]

Weight sitting at 198.4 again. Today marks day 14 on the drol and I’m up about 6.2 lbs on average the last 2 weeks. Took a pin of 1.7cc of the dhb today since gotta pack in the pins so I don’t travel with it tomorrow.

Getting in my fasted 25 minutes of cardio then some oats with almond butter per usual for meal one. Work then arms later today (sure my forearm will love that [emoji31]).

Happy hump day!

Morning gang. Slept in this morning. Things at home have been good. Just family time and hanging with my puppy. Weight today on this scale shows 194.6 and I’m REALLY hoping his scale is just off and I didn’t magically lose 4lbs over night lol.

Will just be a relaxing day and hitting the gym for back day later.

Enjoy your weekend guys. Hug your loved ones and let them know how much they mean to you.

Great log so far. Just a suggestion but don't become too fixated with your weight. When you start checking weight daily it becomes an obsession and can even effect the quality of your progress. It's not like you have to weigh a certain amount for a competition and you have a time limit. Still weigh yourself but do it once weekly. You want to be putting weight on but you shouldn't judge your progress by numbers on a scale. It's easily done and in the past I would aim for a certain weight and try to get to it no matter what and that usually resulted in unnecessary fat gain and forcefeeding.

That’s a very goood point bro. I like to weigh myself each day and then each week I average those 7 weights and those are what I compare week to week. But as far as shooting for. A goal weight your orollly very right that could lead to feeling too much. I’ll try to not do that. Glad to have you following bro

 

[Fitraver]

So was 196.4 this am again and went and got my bp checked and it’s actually fine. Slightly elevated at 126/85 but that’s about where I normally am and for on drol not too bad. She wasn’t concerned. So glad I got that checked.

Well back at my normal scale today and guess what... 200.6!! I’m here again! 3rd time in my life haha but this time the goal is to keep the numbers moving.

Hitting my 25 minutes fasted cardio now, then going to get my e2 checked again. Want to see where that’s at so if it’s high I can get it corrected and test again for my full panel bloods in 2 weeks.

Starting week 4 of the 500 test e and 510 dhb. Body is definitely starting to heat up. I think I am going to leave the anadrol right where it’s at at 50, was debating bumping to 75 for the last 10 since my bp was fine but gains seem to have been solid at 50 so may just leave it.

What do you guys think? Leave it?

Chest day gains coming later!

 

[Fitraver]

Welllll maybe against my better judgement I upped my drol to 75mg lol. Went in and smashed chest and put up the 110s on DB Press. Not sure I’ve ever attempted those before.

Morning guys. 199.4 today. Got my morning oats in and headed to work. Yuck Back to reality. Should hopefully hear from coach at some point about my checkin yesterday. Should also hopefully get my e2 back.

Leg day later for some quad and calves action.

Happy Tuesday!

 

[Fitraver]

Did a little compare shot of last time I hit 200 vs this time. Feel like I look slightly leaner, so hopefully that is a good thing (especially still wanting another 20 lbs lmao).
