Awesome day at the gym today...it was one of those times when all of a sudden something you're taking kicks in and you feel strong as hell. Been on 75mg var for 2-3 weeks now, on top of mast and test, and I just felt it big time. Did 10-25lbs more on every single exercise with no problem. Huge difference from even a few days ago. Love that shit! :headbang:

Sorry I have been MIA brothers. Had a MRI this weekend because of my back pain and the lesion on my lumbar is active and growing so they yanked me off chemo for now and I am headed for radiation so they can fry the fucker. I miss the gym.

You guys keep hitting that iron and I'll be back.

Thanks for the nice word Matt. They seem to think we should have good success with it. This radiation stuff they do is very highly targeted these days. Much fewer sides.

Hit some bi's and shoulders/ traps today. I usually don't do that combo, but hell, I threw tradition to the wind. Is that the confusion principle?? LOL

Do guys ever feel like you get stuck in a routine unknowingly? I do, then the change brings a fresh feel to it. Well, today, I did just that.

Well Matt, from your avatar, what you are doing is working for sure!!

Trained only tri's today. Got blood work to do on Monday so trying to decide if i want wait to hit weights until after. Maybe if I don't push it it won't screw my creatinine levels too much. Mine are always right on the high side of normal. Gotta take care of my one kidney.

Been right there with you Mass with being sidelined after surgery. Keep hammering the lower body until you can get that shoulder healed. You will be better than ever so stay focused on that day and put your energy to that.

Good to see you here and keep us updated. We like to shoot the bull in this thread. Everyday life stuff and training too. We are here to support.
