      Props for the new setup. For the big open room. You still retain intimity with good camera angle closeups. And surprisingly clean no echo audio.
      How the guest feel about that big open space? Doesnt it feel weird for such an intimite conversation to sit in middle of big space.
      Also the tablet kind of putting the block between you and guest. Maybe it feels different in person but from this point of view it seems little off putting.
      Please dont look at this as trying to be harsh or dissing your work. Quite opposite. Im saying it from the place that I love what you do and just giving my honest opinion.

    I sorta love that Chris and Chris had the courage to couch this "health" discussion within the framework of the decidedly risky things that are integral to bodybuilding at this level. Because let's face it, despite looking like pictures of health, bodybuilders at this level are doing a fair number of internally unhealthy things (e.g. risky things in terms of long term health effects) to achieve an external aesthetic goal. The dedication is impressive....as are the results....but it serves no-one to pretend it's not a high risk game they play.

      ​@edwardburroughs1489 there is a very good argument for TRT or cruise dose of testosterone actually having a positive impact longterm compared to not being on and being in mid or lower levels of natural test levels.
      There are a bunch of studies showing TRT lowers all cause mortality, adds on about 10 years to average male lifespans.
      Then you have the cruise small cycle dose that's puts you around 2000ng/dl testosterone level, longterm this can work and actually have a great impact as long as ur bloodwork is improving and you have no sides.
      It's a complicated issue but there are alot of reasons to go on besides just competing

      The study on humans is not publically available. But on horses and bulls you can find a view reasonable good things. You would be surprised how little doses those 1t+ animals get.
      Most drugs work by prohibiting the limiting hormones that tell your body you have grown enough.
      So you still need to scale your cortisol production, protein synthesis and how much your blood can transport, your "immunesystem" can convert into tissue etc. Once you scaled those systems enough you need little to none so your body doesn't get rid of unnecessary weight. It's like controlled cancer.
      You could also use growth hormones from other animals. That would be uncontrolled cancer that will stop growing at some point.

      ​@@nateo200I think you are under estimated how big Cbum is.
      I've met him twice.. Chatted once. And trained in the same area 3x.
      I was 6'4 330lbs at the time and he was offseason mode... Cruising on 400mg test per week and 50mg per day Proviron and he looked pretty impressive at the beginning of the session. But as his delts and chest filled with blood... He seemingly tripled in size. That's the difference between a lot of these guys. Especially the guys who train with more volume and or more insulin/pump style training. They transform in front of you.. It's incredible

      Just a tip about bloodwork:
      Taking a random test like that is just a snapshot of your values at THAT very moment. There's a lot of things that can effect your test levels....sleep, food, time of day etc. It can vary between high and low on a single day depending on different factors. People who do TRT needs to do several tests consistently to see if test levels are within range over a certain time. Would be a waste if you had "low" test just because you had a bad night sleep and ate like crap.
