One Reddit user, under the username Blainer_, shared their incredible 14-month transformation on the social media platform, showcasing their hard work and discipline towards achieving their fitness goals.

The Journey

Blainer_ went through cycles of cut, bulk, and cut again, focusing on keeping things simple, heavy, and intense while staying consistent. They started by cutting for four months, then bulking for six months, followed by another four months of cutting.

Workout Routine

Blainer_'s workout routine consists of the Push-Pull-Legs-Rest & Repeat cycle, with a de-load week every three months. For their home gym, they have an adjustable rack and Olympic bar for exercises like squats, bench press, and military press. They also have a multi-gym with various attachments for nearly every upper body muscle group, as well as a decent amount of free weights and plates.

No TRT Required

Responding to a commenter, Blainer_ stated that they do not use TRT as their testosterone level sits around 650. They also noted that they had been close to their current shape before in the past but had been detrained for the past five years.
