2026 Recomp Cycle - TRT, HGH, RETA

[CookieBaah]

Is there an urge to increase reta because of the weight gain? Not saying to do that as your looking great and its all moving good! but there'd be a psychological reaction I'd imagine as you said its wigging you out.

Think the increase was firstly cause last week I used the last of the vial, and this week just followed suit,
As I did feel the effects weren't quite as strong as they have been.

Over time the dose of Reta required will always go up I guess.
What size mg Reta vials you running?

JOURNAL:
Splendid nights sleep thanks to the wife,
She took the over night wake ups with the baby and got up with the kids in the morning.

Out to my mothers house for family BBQ lunch, and set the kids loose to play.

Attempted to watch my AFL team on TV, but that's always a hard time when they're such a piece of shit in years past, Essendon forever letting me down.

Another fkn family photo session for Easter, (wife is all over these photo shoots gahdamn)
But I atleast wasn't in these ones.

Now to my knee, the dullache has shifted to more so the front of the knee, and feeling less stiff,
I injected GLOW closer to the knee last night, so might repeat that further for a few more nights still.

Been spending some time researching compounds and potential future cycles/stacks,
Still pretty new to all this so trying to just learn,
Not sure if I'll add anything else in, atleast until I'm 3months in on the TRT.

It's an interesting one,
Cause I've got to consider the effects it will have on my cardiovascular and endurance (due to sport),

But there's every chance to be adding in Equipoise.

JOURNAL:
So after my splendid nights sleep,
The wife decided to fall ill last night(with no idea what),
So I handled all the baby wake ups and the early toddler rising,
So essentially the sleep in benefits I got were destroyed within 24hours of happening..

So chilled out with the kids all day,
Did a whole lot of nothing.

Later night gym sesh, but we got through it,
Knee was no real issue with the exerciaes I did, seeing as it was mainly an upper session,
But again, Improvements, maybe 75-80% good.

I Did up my GLOW dose for the night/next few nights,
3rd night pinning around the affected knee, went from 500mcg to 666mcg bpc157/tb500,
Improvements are being made.

This makes me very happy.
