    New Guy

    Hello everyone. I'm new to the forum, but not new to training and pretty well read, I also float around a few other boards. I was diagnosed with Adrenal Fatigue in January due to stress with businesses; believe it or not, my 4 kids reduce stress. Raising my kids and running my business kept me out of the gym for 5 years and took a toll on my body. I've made some life changes including closing a business and hitting the gym. When I started I could not squat the bar for 10 reps; 10 months later here are my stats.

    Squat, 265X5 deads, 285X5, overhead press, 115X5, bench 185X5. Not huge numbers, but good considering I could not climb a flight of stairs 12 months ago. I mainly do these 4 movements 2-3X per week. When I was 30 I was squating 315 for 5 reps at 160 Lbs.

    Physical stats

    38 yrs, 5'8", 203 LBS, 20% BF tested with calipers. I've gained 20lbs since May

    Cycles

    Only Dermacrine for 6 weeks which made me feel 20 again (instead of 70). I will do a first cycle of Test E and Eq when everything comes in and after I see the Endo at the end of this month; my levels are very low and I'm currently going through the investigation stage. I self diagnosed adrenal fatique 10 months ago, my Free Test and DHEA were a bit higher then...

    I'll log my first cycle when everything is in, my goal is to get down to 12% BF and maintain mass.

    Vancouver - as in BC? Where do you train?
    Wondering where to start? Confused? "Homework 1" will get you started.

    Think you're ready for the "next step"? Take this test.

    Cool, I train at a facility that caters mostly to amature and professional athletes. Lots of snowboarders, wrestlers, basket ball, volley ball, etc. A bunch of CFL guys also train there, as well as at the private locations. When I first stepped into the place, I thought I died and went to heaven. 7 squat racks and an area for olympic lifting that occupies 1/3rd of the gym. The only machines are a Hammer Strenth Jammer and leg extention/leg curl; other than that 100% free weights. There's just enough cardio upstairs overlooking the gym to suit it's purpose. Most people run the stairs and the small track. There's 3 - 4 trainers hovering around working with the athletes whenever I'm there. If you get injured, there's a physio dept. Few posers...

    Sounds like a nice facility. I'm kinda lucky being a chick - as long as there's a cage, I can train. I don't need dumbells that go heavier than 50 lbs and I never run out of plates. Hubby has more trouble - kinda hard for a guy to max out on dumbbell rows when the heaviest ones are only 90 or 100 lbs each.
