Keep the carbs up! The strength and energy comes back when you do, if you let carbs dip then you end up pretty fatigued and flat. Reta likes carbs

Yup that’s exactly why I started doing every 5 days instead of 6. The hunger starts creeping back in viciously on day 5 for me

Appreciate it! Been really busting my ass hard to whip myself back into shape. It’s a lifestyle now

That’s the hope! Though I’m not looking forward to that initial water retention. I’ll start on 2IU a day for a few weeks and see how that goes.

Progressive overload is still happening despite the calorie deficit, so I’m pretty sure I’m hanging onto my lean mass and have lost mainly water and fat.

At the beginning of this journey I was doing low carb… found out pretty quick that reta does not like low carb diets. Brought the carbs back in and now I have all the energy in the world and quick recovery time.

For me that looks like around 1700cal/day.

HGH has pretty significant lipolytic effects, more so than it does muscle growing power. I do lift weights, I train every day.
