Hello everyone.
Here I will be logging my experience training with PhD Test Matrix, a natural testosterone booster offered by PhD Supplements.
What I am attempting to accomplish:
At the end of this month I will be participating in my first powerlifting meet. I will attempt to beat all of my PR's at this meet, which are:
Squat: 280
Deadlift: 355
Bench Press: 170
These aren't exactly impressive numbers, I know. But if you knew where I was when I started out you'd be at least as impressed as I am
Why I chose Test Matrix
I am simply looking for a mental edge in my training to get that extra rep and/or 5 pounds on the bar. Strength is the goal. Whether or not my T levels actually rise is a secondary effect, to me. I don't expect a major increase in my size and I won't be getting bloodwork done.
I have used several other T boosters in the past. Some I liked, some I didn't notice much. I chose Test Matrix because of its ingredient profile. *Quality* Tribulus and Fenugreek extracts are the centerpiece of the formula, and in both my personal research and experience, these seem to be effective, but there are several other nice ingredients as well. (full label below)
About me:
Age: 24
Height: 6'1
Weight:181
Lifting experience: 3 years
Strict powerlifting experience: 13 months
My workout program is based off of Jonnie Candito's linear strength program. Mostly for the lower body stuff though, because I tend to mix up the upper body work.
My diet will contain roughly 2600 calories and 125 grams of protein every day, although I am not strict with it.
How this log will work:
Once a week, the day after my heavy squat/deadlift day, I will update the log with:
- The numbers I put up on my heavy squat and deadlift day
- How I have felt in and out of the gym
- How my recovery has been
- Maybe some other stuff that comes to mind
As a baseline, here is what I did on Sunday 1/31 (took my first dose that night):
Squat:
3 x 6 @ 235
Deadlift:
2 x 6 @ 295
