| Though I still feel relatively good, I will get my test levels checked next year. I was doing some research and there are a couple of private practices that are very good and not too expensive either | |||

| Have you guys tried more natural ways of boosting your testoserone first? Like following a very healthy lifestyle and getting the body fat to optimal levels? I understand that some will suffer low test no matter what, but I would try everything to fix my levels through diet, exercise, rest etc first before jumping on trt Also if I was to go on TRT and the NHS were unlikely to pay? Then I think I would get in touch with Big Rory and save myself a fortune | |||

| If a powerlifting comp was being held in my Garden, I would shut the blinds and plug in my headphones I did enjoy training it and competing, but watching? No thanks! | |||

Post Edited: 25.03.2023 @ 11:32 AM by AdamT The_Lone_Wolf said: Thank you haha, I have certainly done some damage in the past not only to myself, but also buffet restaurants. The honest answer is that I sought professional help for food addiction, but my GP shot me down in classic GP style. I ended up doing my own therapy and learned tools to help me with my own eating issues. However, it does still creep up on me quite often and I have to take a step back and have word with myself. The strongest tool I learned was self-accountability and the art of discipline. I don’t think it is a culture shock because I still eat foods that I like, just try my best to manage my intake and not eat everything in sight. Last night I cooked a 2kg beef joint, and once rested and served, I ate 500g of beef and consumed all the resting juices. I felt fairly full and content in my stomach, but my brain was delayed and was trying to make me eat more. I declined and stood strong, and maintained my discipline. The current situation I find myself is so far has been quite easy to manage. My weight has gone up and down over the last 10 years, with my lowest weight of 93kg when I competed in a comp, up to my a ghastly 120kg. None of that is quality tissue mind, but I do carry it quite well. Regardless, my health is currently a focus and I do not need to be the weight I am now at 40 years of age. It offers me no benefit, and it certainly is not needed for sporting performance. Just a fat mess sadly. All of that comes down to a life long issue with overeating and gluttony (Which is why I gravitated to strongman and powerlifting to 'justify' the eating). My advice to anyone past 40 is to really take a good hard and long look in the mirror and to be honest with yourself, which is often the hardest person to be honest with. Health truly is wealth! Find a diet, or at least a nutritional plan that you like, and that you can follow. Be more active, and try to take positive steps to change things. Keep an eye on markers such as blood pressure, weight, body fat levels, quality and amount of sleep, blood work if you can. I‘ve got 4 kids ranging from 16 to almost 2, and I’d rather they didn’t have to come to my funeral for another 40 plus years. Amazing post Food addiction is real, nobody chooses to be obese despite what they may say. It looks terrible and most important it's terrible for your health Good on you for getting on track. I too have drastically changed my lifestyle in recent years. Fasting Eating low/moderate carbs Higher healthy fats Moderate to high protein 4 litres of water per day Getting plenty of fibre The above has made a massive difference. Not only to physical health, but also mental health I wouldn't swap how I feel now for 1000kg total. No way in hell! | |||

Post Edited: 10.03.2023 @ 13:07 PM by AdamT Probably not an answer many want to hear who love strength, but perhaps it's time to drop the calories by at least 25% and follow something like a Mediterranean diet and try some fasting It should definitely lower your blood sugar My Father was pre diabetic and was able to control it for many years by eating a clean diet and doing some fasting Since lockdown ended I have tried to really take care of my health. I still do some strength training, but Marital arts and general fitness are more important to me I'm squatting 180-200 and deadlifting 200-220 now and I rarely bench, but do more OHP instead. I guess I was never going to be the strongest guy ever, but I lost whatever passion I had to get stronger. I feel so much fitter now, physically and mentally | |||

| I have used sarms, but never black venom I know a pro bodybuilder that has used it and was very impressed with the strength and pump He was on a cruise, so decided to try sarms and was recommended the venom He said it was as good as many orals and felt actually very good on it. Mind you he would have been on test, so suppression wasn't a major issue Just because something is legal, it doesn't make it safe I actually might try a cycle of this stuff myself. Martial arts is my focus now, but a little more muscle won't do any harm | |||

| f**k me I just happened to come on here to see if any news, as it's been a while, but this is an absolute shock He was definitely a character if nothing else and his journal was gold at a time My thoughts and prayers go out to his family, friends and of course Rebecca also He was even younger than me. Very, very sad RIP Paul | |||

This viral video has rocked the wef. Danny The Great Reset is not real, it is all a conspiracy (despite the fact they don't hide it) The World is heading in a terrible place and this is why Covid was released imo to get the ball rolling | |||

rawlifter said:Im doing the russian squat routine at the moment and finiding it usefull https://www.strengthlog.com/russian-squat-routine/ still deadlifting heavy x 1 a week and benching 3 times and making progress - may restart the routine again as soon as i finish with a higher weght Thanks for the share pal, it looks' interesting! I am more focused on Judo training right now, but I have based all my strength training primarily around squats and strict press to a lesser degree, no deadlifts and little bench here and there I might give this a try! | |||

| I just watched a video with Eddie, Darren and Colin Apparently they are looking to set up a team UK v USA strongman comp. There are 4 men to be selected and 3 ladies. Rebecca is going to be one of the women along with Donna and Andrea I think it's crazy how well she has progressed these last 3 or 4 years. Not surprising for me, as she had shown great potential, but it's still pretty good to be the top woman so soon | |||

Post Edited: 29.05.2022 @ 20:30 PM by AdamT 93hopkinsonr said: I think this comp has shown overall Novikov is stronger/is a better strongman than Tom Stoltman. These events massively favour Tom over Novikov and it’s really close. The Arnold’s events were much better for Novikov over Tom and Novikov smashed him Oh I agree 100% that Novikov overall is the better strongman I'm actually not going to bother with WSM anymore. It's not Tom's fault, he could only do what was put in front of him, but there is definitely corruption/favouritism I will stick with the Arnold's | |||
