My experience has been not as drastic, but I do use a similar approach and am seeing a gratifying level of results
- strict sleep schedule
- regular sun exposure, but not maxing
- cycling DHEA to keep cortisol levels manageable
- Testosterone higher from avoiding endocrine disruptors in food and synthetic materials
- supplementing magnesium, and cycling Glycine
- Focusing more on recovery (in early 40s, recovery is much slower), and strict calory intake - 10% higher than maintenance during bulking, 20% lower than maintenance during cuts.
- Training is medium intensity, low volume.
If I were to guess, just based on my own experience your results are probably a synthesis of all of the different factors you are controlling for. I'd guess your training regimen, recovery strategy, and calory intake are the lion's share, with everything else playing a supporting role.
