And so it begins...

Good evening!



Sorry for the delay, but here I am again. I have received my C60 order and will take 22.5 mg in 25 ml of olive oil once a month. I took my first dose today and am thrilled to wait what 'happens'. My dad started taking this as well.

I have also received my blood results (since I can only upload one image per post, I have only attached the image with my T levels, if one wants to see any other values, feel free to ask), which were surprisingly not as good as before/I expected.

I did not expect my iron being too low, though it's probably because I rarely eat meat besides chicken/turkey and an occasional liver. This, however, will be easy to restore.

The thing I was most 'upset' about was my testosterone. This was the first time I got it checked, but as I don't have any symptoms of low T (besides no beard, poor me!) and having built decent muscle and strength, I didn't expect such a low value, especially in the morning. My diet is in check, I have enough rest at night, ... I will be calling my doctor when he gets back from his holiday next week to ask him about it.



Regarding my training:

I have introduced hammer curls and reverse BB curls instead of regular curls to emphasize my forearms instead of biceps. I did this because my forearms were lagging, so the weight that I could lift with my biceps was too much for my forearms, hence straining my radius.

My latest lifts in kilograms including barbell weights (see former post for routine details):

Incline Bench Press: 50, 47.5, 42.5

Chin up: BW+12 (8, 8, 8)

Preacher Curls: 30 (8, 8, 8)



Workout C:
