5 Weeks Out: Lab Work Interpretation

ATHLETE SUMMARY:

EVALUATION OF PAST WEEK:

Overall, really pleased here. Glutes look harder and still have very good fullness. I realize I am not going to need to pull down as low as I did for these last shows, which I should come in a lot bigger and just as hard.

PEDs:

Sleep has gone to shit this week with the introduction of tren, maybe. I say maybe because I might be training fatigue related or addition of clen. I did add in melatonin last night and that was a huge help and will keep that in place. Also, nights I do injections I wake up very hot, so I do think its tren related more than likely. I don’t think I need to increase to dosage on any other PED as the look is good and getting harder and fat loss is occurring.

Nutrition:

No change to nutrition I am pulling down still here and training is adequately fueled. Staying full and round.

Cardio/NEAT:

No change to cardio. I kept in the treadmill cardio in the AM fasted and step count at 9000 steps.

Lab Work:

AST and ALT slight elevation at 82 and 104 respectively, however creatine kinase was 2326 indicative that all these elevations are via muscle breakdown and not liver stress. I also trained legs 2 days prior. Creatinine was normal and I did draw a Cystatin-C for a more accurate eGFR calculation, which was 116 mL/min/1.73m2; so kidneys are great here. HDL was lower at 27 mg/dl, but LDL was at 57 mg/dl so the ratio is still very low risk for CVD. My Free T3 is at 4.2 PG/ML and TSH at 1, so my Cytomel at 37.5mcg ED is right on for the dosage needed. Testosterone was at 603NG/DL and E2 at 37.1PG/ml. Running only 210mg of test per week but labs aren’t registering the Tren and Masteron in place. Vitamin D did decrease to 39NG/ML so will be bumping back up to 10,000IU D3 daily.
