That’s a great change going from 210 to 165 then adding 10lbs of mass.
Are you planning on running another cycle or just going natty?

Welcome to the board and thanks for a proper intro.

Congrats on getting that much weight to move. Not an easy task. I’ve been in your shoes plenty of times with finding a balance to eat eat enough to grow but I’ve forced down over 5,000 calories at time if I needed to. There’s ways to do it to make it a bit easier. I find most people try to eat way more than they have to in order to grow though. I can put on .5lb a week eating just over 3,100 calories. It’s slow but steady.

Im actually going to run a test E cycle 500mg a week. For 12-14 weeks then pct .ive ran a few cycles in my late 20’s .

 

[T3st]

Thanks for the warm welcome and. Ya its been a tough go but i love seeing the results .now that im down to the 10% range i can see the gains clearly . consistentcy is key…

At 175 you can gain easy at 3200 calories with a high protein, high carb nutrition plan. That’s really not a lot of food if you pick the right foods.

Breakfast: Bagel, 2 eggs, 2 pieces of bacon

Lunch: 8oz lean ground beef, 2/3 cup sweet potatoes, 100g avacodo

Dinner: 8oz chicken breast, 1 cup peas or broccoli, 1 cup brown rice

Evening Snack: 1 cup oats with water

Protein Shake post workout.

That’s a quick example of what 3200 calories can look like with about 200g protein, 160g fat, 280g carbs. I ball parked those numbers but you get the point.

Thnks

 

[T3st]

Absolutely.
Thanx for the layout .i try to eat as much quality food as possible i have been supplementing meals with protien shakes due to not having enough time or lack of planning. Diet is my weak point .
My metabolism has seemed to really have picked up since i hit my 40 yr mark. .but ive been trying for similar carb. Protein fat ratios youve laid out and see how it goes .thnx again any recomendations on diet are always welcome

What a surprise, the way you say hello, I know it’s coming, and always smile when I see it @Czworeczki

Love the fact everyone seems to want to help each other out.not bash em and make them feel stupid.

If anyone bashes another member or acts out of line and doesn’t want to help others they won’t be here long. Ugm was set up as a uncensored forum so that a beginner who doesn’t know what testosterone is can ask questions or a vet can come in and drop serious knowledge or ask serious questions.
Everyone is welcome here no Matter who you are as long as you don’t cross the line.

Basically the only wrong question is the one not asked

 

[T3st]

Thanx bro
