#AskPjBraun Podcast Episode 10

 

Questions:

“Jerkface” - 2:39

Does letrozole actually work to slow or reverse extremely mild gynecomastia (1/4" marble size). If so, in what doses, and does it replace your other aromatase inhibitor such as Arimidex while you are using it. I recently crashed my estrogen using 1mg arimidex every day in an attempt to address a gynecomastia onset. I’ve backed way off of it and my E2 is slowly rising, probably just over 20 right now. Is the point of letrozole to eradicate your estradiol, or does it specifically address gyno? If my estradiol is already low, should I even consider using letrozole?


Thanks PJ, always appreciate your willingness to spread knowledge and experience!

Hey PJ, thanks for taking the time every day to answer everyone’s questions and putting out kick ass products. My questions for you are:
1.  On the last podcast you said that we could actually double up the recommended dosage of products like Metha Quad and Chosen 1. I’ve purchased that stack for the beatPj contest and was wondering if I do double up, do I take the double dose at the same time (morning)or take 1 Metha Quad in the morning and 1 at dinner? I’m assuming for Chosen 1 I take 2 in the morning and 2 in the evening if doubling up.
2.  You say in the meal plan to take Metha Quad and Chosen 1 within the hour of working out. I typically lift and do cardio first thing in the morning so I’m fasted. Any issues taking these on an empty stomach?
Thanks
Brad


Trevor - 6:46

  1. What’s your opinion on having a calorie deficit while eating constant carbs, vs carb cycling for cutting?
  2. I was approved and wanna compete in the legion contest and sent in my pics, haven’t received my code or welcome graphic yet, how long does that process usually take? I sent it in on the 31 of January

Thanks!


Paul - 8:27

Hi PJ,
Hope you had a good birthday. I enjoy your cardio Q N A each morning. My question I have is how do you break a strength plateau? My bench is my weakest lift and I can’t seem to get past a 1 rep max of 215 at 145lbs. Your advice is always appreciated.
Cheers,
Paul


Daniel - 12:08

Hi PJ,

I'm 32 years old and am still relatively new to fitness.

First off though let me say that I love your company, videos and transparency you allow. Because of your advice and videos, I've made substantial progress in the past year and have gone from 215lbs down to 175lbs at 5'10" and dropped from size 38 pants down to 36 then 34 and now knocking on 32.

I entered the contest and have been diligently exercising/lifting 7 days a week since the start of the year. Due to some small personal issues I fell off diet for 2 days and essential had cheat meals consisting of a lotta peanut butter with my wives homemade banana muffins and didn't work out.

I already feel terrible having done this but as most men I work full time yet have irregular hours due to it being in retail management. I'm also taking a managerial accounting course at the local community college all the while trying to be a good husband and father for my 3 kids. My workouts vary based on my schedule but I'll do P90X, the original 300 spartan workout in my garage gym, run in the neighborhood while my son rides his bike and hit the gym after class twice a week at my community college (one day for legs and one for arms.)

Any other advice/encouragement for keeping up with diet and exercise with such a wacky schedule?

For the first time in my life I can actually see my abs down there forming and look and feel younger than I did when I was in my 20's

Thanks for your time


Mike - 15:08

Hey PJ,

Thinking about running the dhea elite stack for 12 weeks, what do you recommend for post cycle support? Pct5, eradicate, and apex male for how long? Are all these post cycle supps  sufficient enough to get my levels back to normal or should I be adding something else as well? Thanks

Frank - 23:21

Thanks

Jeremiah - 25:51

Hey pj I am trying to nail down my macros and I am having a hard time getting it down.. I am 6'3 235 lbs.. not sure about my bf% at this point..

I have been cutting almost all my carbs out (maybe 100g a day) and I am pretty low on fats (20-30ga day) but about 200-250g of protein a day.. I am leaning out but I feel really small and I feel like I am loosing muscle..

I am doing 35-40mins of cardio post workout and I am lifting 9 days on 5 days off due to my work schedule. Should I bump up my calories?


Brandon - 28:33

Hey PJ,

Hope you're doing well with everything, and continue to do well with yourself and the company.

My questions.

* Is abnormal good for a first cycle 4 weeks only? And what would be the sides that might associate with it? Since it relates to deca would it be good for repair of muscle/joints (ties into the second question below)

* I been having left side shoulder blade discomfort/pain and sometimes it radiates towards my chest causing chest pain/tightness. It's been more frequent since I stopped working out over two months now,(went to the doctor nothing wrong with the heart) do you think this might be due to a nerve or something muscular? Like a weak muscle not supporting what it's supposed to? Since the doctors couldn't find anything.

Im 25 years old and the doctor said I'm healthy from the test they took.

*Last question!!!

When is a new product coming out?!?! I know you have something In the brilliant head of yours. I heard something of a new product that was supposed to be out sometime this month. So I'm just wondering.

Thanks PJ!

P.s can I have a few buck for a drone? I'll send you pictures once I buy it.

Thanks peace out bye.

Hi PG My name is Chris, I'm 32 years old and from Germany.

I'm a big fan of you and Blackstone Labs, I watch your Ask PG Series on a regular basis and have learned a lot from it and I am really fascinated by your knowledge. Your helpfulness is incredible and you are a true role model.

Unfortunately, because I'm from Germany I can not officially be part of the $ 10,000 Transformation Contest, but I will start my own Transformation Contest and I will try to gain as much muscle as possible over the next two months.

I can afford only 3 products a month and my choice for my goals would be

Chosen 1, Growth and Brutal 4ce. What do you think? Or would you recommend another stack. Do I need a PCT after the 2 months?

I'm 6.0 feet and weigh 187lbs and dont take any steroids

After these 2 months, I will start a keto diet to become as shredded as possible for the Sommer. What supplements from Blackstone Labs would you recommend for Keto?

Now I have a big request and I hope I'm not outrageous now, because I know this is only for those who participate in the $ 10,000 Transformation Contest and order directly from Blackstone Labs website but unfortunately I do not have this option.

But would it be possible for me to get a Muscle building and a Keto diet plan and help guide to get the best possible results.

I hope my English was not to bad and you understood everything,

Thanks for everything, keep it up and stay healthy

much greetings from Germany

This is a follow up to the email I just sent a few min ago but written with better wording and questions
Thanks

Good afternoon, So I purchased a Hardcore Stack and I have both brute and chosen 1 along with eradicate, gear support.  I also got the lean stack with Viper now..
the way i take the supps are as follows
1 of ea in AM
eradicate, chosen1, brutal 4ce, Gear support along with Cobra but my new stack will have viper and I take all of them with 8oz of Trojan when I wake up
I either fast cardio or cardio after workout.
I eat breakfast and then take my 1 Methaquad I wait to digest then go to the gym, drink my bcaa’s during and a protein shake after gym session.
around 6pm or so I take another dose of
eradicate, chosen1, brutal 4ce, Gear support along with Cobra but my new stack will have viper and I take all of them with 8oz of Trojan
Should I add another methaquad pill to be able to bulk up more?
then before sleep I take my 3 growth pills.
Do you think I should add another dosage of any of the sups or stay the same.  
I would like to also dry out more I feel like I have too much water and you aren’t able to see the striations or veins I drink 1 gallon of water everyday.  What can I do to help me dry out or make my skin tighter.
Thanks
Santiago

Hello PJ, hope all is well with you. I’m a big fan of you and your podcast. These podcast I find very informational, and motivating. I’m a military vet, with a little family, and work shift work. Therefore my body is not what it use to. Although this past year I started following you and your podcast, as well as using your products from blackstone, and went from 255 to 220. Please keep these podcast coming as much as possible!
My question is who in the supplement industry do you find as your biggest competition? What do you like about them and how do you think you and blackstone are superior to them?

Ryan - 56:34

Hi I see some people posting Instagram about the 14 or 16 weeks of beat pj challenge? I thought this is a 12 week competition? My wife and I started on Jan 15 like was originally stated and will be ending April 15th. I think some people are confused as to how this works or maby we are?
Were you allowed to start earlier that the 15th? That seems unfair to give some people more

time if they started on the 15th like the original rules stated
Please have someone clarify
Ry
