Been back hitting the iron for about 5 months now. I'm making good progress. Not holding the mass I used to but it's coming back relatively easily, and strength is coming back steadily. Took a couple years off, due to injuries, and other personal stuff I'd rather not get into. Forgive the picture, I have the worst camera on my phone it's so outdated. I'll post new ones when I get my new phone, I am a little more chiseled than what the picture shows. Went from a flabby 202, when I first started posting again, to 180, so dropped 22 lbs, and put a good amount of muscle back on. I was gonna hop on cycle but I think I'm gonna give myself a full year back, before I do anything. Think that's the logical option considering where my heads at right now. Goal weight is 205, that's when I was at my peak.
5 months back progress

Looking good man and as darkness said you are heading in the right direction. I myself have taken some time off the gear just to let my body recover and get somewhat back to normal. Obviously when it gets" normal" then I will end up hoping back on haha, nature of the beast I suppose. Keep up the good work!Comment

I'm just eating real clean, lots of chicken breast, fish occasionally steak. Low carbs(70-150), lots of green veggies, spinach, green beans, etc, no dairy, no sugar(occasionally i'll cheat) hitting the weights 3 days a week, kinda mixing heavy and moderate sets and doing some cardio about twice a week. I was gonna run some prop and tren a, but decided I'm just gonna wait, because I feel I'm progressing pretty quickly(Thank God for muscle memory), and I just have too much going on at the moment, can't really dedicate my time and focus for a fast ester cycle. There's a time and place, and right now just isn't the time. I like to do things to the best of my ability. No half assing, which is what it would be if I hopped on now.Comment

Good take! Keep reaping them natty gainz while they're on a roll bro. Nothing beats looking in the mirror and seeing the improvements knowing you're doing it without PED's, and solely from hard, bust-ass work. You probably won't come to a stall for a good while since being out of it for 2 years - that is if you keep nutrition a priority and don't become complacent in the gym.Comment

Looks great...keep at it and the gains will return in full force!
Muscle memory is a great thing as in my own case I've managed to recover most of the gains lost since sustaining a nasty head injury over a decade ago.“You take the blue pill — the story ends, you wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red pill — you stay in Wonderland, and I show you how deep the rabbit-hole goes.” - Morpheus (from the Matrix)Comment
