Alright, so some of you expressed interest in seeing my comeback logged, and honstly, it's gonna help me when I want to cheat to be held accountable. I have fallen far from where I was last year, but I'm coming back strong. Other than weak leg lifts because of the broken heal and ankle damage, I'm back to 100% capability. Now comes the work.
In the interest of full discloser, I have decided it is best to give the story of my "accident". After this I really don't want to talk about it anymore.
About one year ago I was accosted and attempted to be robbed by a group of thugs. I'm talking about 5 or more guys. Stupidly, I didn't go for it. I was much bigger and did amateur fighting, so I was gonna fight them off I though. Long story short, I was stabbed 9 times in the abdomin, arm, which badly lacerated my left triceps, the neck and once in the face. I also had my heal broken. I very nearly died, but by the grace of god.
Took the time off, am cleared medically and have slowly been easing back into things. At this point I've been killing it in the gym lately. Made big progress.
I'm currently on a trt dose of test cyp, and occasionally will hit some test base pre workout. That's it.

Here's my current diet plan, which I follow religiously. With the exception of a cheat meal once a week, and that just means the healthy option on the menu when I go out with family.

With a BMR of 3,100 my total macros come in as follows:
Protein 246
Fat 63.5
Carbs 223
Calories 2,377

I should mention the one thing not calculated is the slice of white bread or an airhead candy with my post workout shake for a few fast carbs.

This diet will be changing throughout the log and I will manipulate carbohydrate intake. I'll post up changes as they come.

I'll post my current routine tomorrow hopefully. Getting these started is the hardest part.
 
The only two pics I still have from my last photo grouping last summer:

did they catch the mf'rs? and did you knock one the fuck out?
Got one on attempted murder, case ongoing. They got my dna off of him.
I appreciate the concern guys, I really do. But I want this log to be about recovery, I only shared that so you guys would understand the injuries I'm fighting back from.
It was a terrible thing I'm trying to move on from. ....thanks guys.
 
And yes, I fought like hell and hurt them too. They finally gave up and ran off with me still standing. ...of course my options were keep fighting or lay down and watch myself be murdered.

Thursday's routine: Bi's and tri's
All reps are 10-12
Eazy bar curl X 4
Dumbell curls on incline bench, elbows pinned to sides X 4
Hammer curls X 4
Preacher curls with ez bar X 4
Skull crushers X 4
Close grip bench press. X 4
Heavy dB overhead tri extension X 4
DB kickbacks X 4
All rest periods are 70 seconds.

I did 30 minutes spinning upon waking as well.

This is not my recomp routine, but I'm am cutting on this successfully for now. Once I begin my cycle, expect to see some real changes.

Picked up a pretty damn good part time job doing maintenance for a person who owns several rental properties, and the extra work is killing my forum time atm, but it won't effect this log.
The money is to good to pass up atm, but it sure is a full plate.

Once I really get going here I will be doing a six day split, hitting every muscle group twice a week, fluctuating reps, and my rest time between sets will be spinning on my stationary bike for 60 secs. No rest for about 1:20 minutes. This has worked great for me before.
Just dropping a little fat before I cycle atm.

I have what I think is a great plan and diet, but by all means, offer your opinions. I always am open to them fellas.
