I felt pretty good yesterday and the lower back is doing well. Got a little taxed at the begining on bent over rows but recovered well for the rest of workout. Today is going to legs and I might even max out if I'm feeling good when i head to the gym. I'll keep you all psoted.

So yesterday workout was legs. I actually fell asleep before I went to the gym but was determined to try and max. That was a BAD BAD idea. I was tight and still tired and failed at 425 which isn't anything to crazy heavy for me. I feel very good and I do think my blood levels are good. I'm injecting 4 times a week so one day is back to back which makes it kind of odd but makes it easy on me injecting. Leg day went like this

Low bar Back Squat
225 1x15
315 1x8
405 1x1
425 (failed)

Sissy Squat (narrow feet deep squat)
185 1x15

225 1x8

160 4x12

Glute kickbacks on cables
40 4x15

Okay so I thought I'd give you all and update on more then just training today. First off I can feel myself become more easily aggiated and aggressive. I am very aware of this and staying in control but I had nothing like this on my previous cycles. Also at this point already my.balls are comically small which is to be expected with something like Deca because it shuts down natural production pretty hard. I injected my quad yesterday for the first time in awhile and let me tell you it is SORE no redness or inflammation but the muscle is aching like a SOB. Also took off work today just to relax and get some errands done so I'll get a good long training session in maybe with some HIIT cardio since I did run this morning. The weight is coming off slowly just as I planned as I just dropped down to 199.4 this week and 16% bf flat. I haven't had to take an AI yet as I'm pretty resistant to estrogen but I am keeping an eye out for puffyness or itchy nipples along with holding more water. ( Scale tells me% water held which is very useful. It is climbing right now but very slowly)
If y'all have any input or questions feel free to ask!
