All I can say Totentanz is I am 100% sticking to the calories I say I'm eating. When I went down to about 1400 calories. My weight did start going down. But I felt ill in the gym so it was no good. I didn't have success on 2000 cals a day. Or 1600. Though strangely I seem to be having some...

My experience tells me otherwise. In theory I should be able to lose weight on 2500 calories a day. I have struggled to lose weight on 1600

Nice strength results. Do you think HST has given you more muscle growth than any other program?

I don't think it is as simple as that for everybody Totentanz. I have said many times that I measure all my portions and know exactly what I'm eating. The only time I don't is Saturday. I have a cheat day but I still make sure I am around the calories. Just not the ideal macronutrients. I don't...

Wungun. As you know I'm having trouble losing weight. I dropped 1600 calories without results. I then went down to 1400 cals a day less than 50g of carbs. I think my weight did start creeping down but I felt ill in the gym and could not sustain that.. I then read an article Borge Fagerli wrote...

Have you made good size gains on the 9 cycles?

In your experience of HST. Which rep range created the most hypertrophy for you? Or was it consistent growth all the way through the cycle?

"Absolutely. The lower rep range isn't going to induce the type of hypertrophy that we're all looking for" I thought it was the 5 rep range where most of the growth comes from though? Unless you are talking about lower rep ranges?

How is your progress going? Are you still doing bulk cycles of HST?

I'm pretty sure I'm no bigger then when I was doing "pump training" years ago. Back then I was benching 100lbs for 8 reps. Working out from home typical 4 sets to failure 1 body part per week etc. Since I started strength training i'm now benching 220lbs for 10 reps. At least I was before I...

I'm a bit disillusioned with training at the minute to be honest. Years go by without me making progress. How should I train to gain muscle? What else can I do to lose fat? With HST you are supposed to make significant gains in a few weeks. Tangodown. I was doing 20 - 30 minutes cardio twice...

I have done a few weeks at 1700 cals but it hasn't made much of a difference. I tried 1 day at 1000 cals but had a tough time training the next day. My heart was fluttering a bit so don't want to try that again. Not sure what to do at this point. I'm giving up on the diet until new year. I'm...

Thanks. So my testosterone test could have been impacted a bit from the cutting? Also whats troll food?

haha. Nice Do you know o&g if being on a deficit or a surplus has any effect on testosterone?

Are mine lower than average at my age? (31) What are totentanz's T levels?

Don't really want to posting pic's O&G. Very wary of my digital footprint. I'm not really at a good baseline. I still have the "look" of an endomorph. Wide hips fat on thights hips and lower belly. Always had a lower belly since my teens. If my test levels are ok for losing weight. What is...

Yes that is 3.6 I've edited. So my test levels aren't great? Is that why I'm struggling to lose weight? Also does cutting have any effect on Test? Do levels increase at all when on a surplus?

OK. I have some results to post. Not sure what they mean. Thyroid. Serum TSH level 3.6 mU/L (0.27 - 4.20) Testosterone Serum Testosterone 13.8 nmol/L (9.0 - 29.0)

Not sure. I think they give steroids to people in pain.

"Problem with doctors in the UK is that they are governed by budgets from the Government and will not spend on drugs unless they have to unless of course you want a 'sex change' or have a boob or nose job because your current assets make you 'sad' and then they throw money at you." ^^^^. This a...
