Critique upcoming cycle

[jrock645]

Will be doing my first pinning cycle in about 4 weeks, which will put me 8 -9 weeks post pct from epistane/11oxo/trest cutting stack. Did bloodwork today, expecting results tomorrow or the next day.

Cycle will be 6 weeks. Last big push before my wedding, looking to recomp/lean down. Currently 6’2, 200ishlbs, 15% or so. Down 30lbs since beginning of November.

Test P @ 350/wk
NPP @490/wk
Anavar @70mg/day

Possible wild card for week 3 on: Msten @20mg- will only add this if I’m really feeling good.

On cycle support:
Prami .25-.5 twice a week
IL Virtus .3-.5 daily
Torem and hcg

PCT:
Nolva and clomid
Sustain alpha and estro strike, invictus
IGF1-LR3- will be adding carbs to diet but keeping calories flat

Nutrition:

Will be following the Palumbo Cut diet, which I followed on my epi cycle(though scaled the calories down to 1800). Works out to 2500 calories(which is roughly maintenance for me), 292g protein, 130fat, less than 50g carbs.

Meal 1: 5 eggs and 4 whites
Meal 2: 2 scoops protein 2T peanut butter
Meal 3: 6oz chicken breast and 1/4c almonds
Meal 4: 2 scoops protein 2T peanut butter
Meal 5: 8oz flank steak, small greens salad with slight drizzle olive oil
Meal 6: 4 eggs and 4 whites

I’ll eat that 6 days a week. Monday I’ll sleep in, train fasted and eat only two meals, but anything goes as my carb up day. Not a gorge fest, but satisfy whatever cravings I have.

Training:

Monday: full body HIT and 30-40 minutes cardio
Tuesday: cardio and conditioning- 3-5 sets of the Bear, 20 minutes on the elliptical(hr 148+) and some core work
Wednesday: not to failure workout of bench press, rack pulls and whatever else I have time for just to get a good pump. 6-8 minutes HIIT on the bike. Also 30-40 minutes LISS cardio at night.
Thursday: rest or cardio if I missed a session
Friday: full body HIT, 30-40 minutes LISS
Saturday: not to failure workout focusing on arms and shoulders
Sunday: cardio and conditioning similar to Tuesday

Thoughts?

Won’t let me edit but forgot to mention...

Will also be running T3. 50mcg/day at beginning of cycle(already on it), ramping up to 100 last couple weeks, back down to 50 for first two weeks of pct before coming off.

Also TD Clen using phloejel.

Yo! That looks pretty solid!

Congrats on the wedding. When is it?

For estered compounds, even propionate I like to see at least 8 weeks on cycle.

I like that you have the var in there but to me the rest will be wasted to a certain extent

July, in Spain.

And I hear ya on the length but 6 weeks is all I really have time to fit in and be through pct in time for the trip.

Also, it’s my first pinning cycle so the 6 weeks is approachable, mentally, for me. If all goes well, I’ll be doing a 14week EQ cycle come January.

Got ya. If possible, then, I would recommend frontloading the injectibles

I can do that with the test. Will do.

 

[Old Witch]

Front load... test P!? What? It’s only in your system like a day.

Half life of 4.5 days. Frontloading for a week should add to this cycle.

 

[Old Witch]

0.8 days. Mean residence time is 1.5 days...

Enanthate would be 4.5 days half life.

I don’t trust wiki. Pubchem states 4.5 day half life.

Even if it were 1.5 days, I would still recommend frontloading for a 6 week cycle.

6 week cycles are for compounds with a 6 to 8 hour half life, IMO

 

[jrock645]

I could just up the teat altogether. Have enough to dose 500mg through the 6 weeks. Had just planned to do EOD dosing at 100, but could add two more doses per week.

All of this shows me you don’t need critique planning cycles. Looks flawless ancillaries and all.

However, are you going to be on PCT on your honeymoon? Sorry if you explained this.
Personally, I would run it to be on Test at least during my honeymoon(maybe drop the NPP though)

Thanks!

Cycle ends 5 weeks before the wedding/honeymoon so i should be all good after 5 weeks of pct.

I use to bounce back quick after cycles until they got long and ridiculous. But that timing scares me a little. You can easily just be on pct on homeymoon. I take grey market drugs anywhere without issues. I wouldn’t want my libido tanking on honeymoon, I’d almost rather still be on Test ideally.

I was planning on taking clomid and viagra with me.

Past couple 4 week oral cycles i was definitely back in 4 weeks. This last one, 2-3 weeks. With the HCG, im figuring to bounce back at least as quick as i have been.

 

[jdm23]

Not a critique just some advice. Being that it’s your first pin cycle I’d recommend a longer pin. I’ve been on trt for almost a year so no virgin muscles and started using Prop for a mini blast. The pip takes some getting used to. I prefer 1.5” in the quad/glute and bury that joker deep and the pip isn’t bad at all.

Perfect brother. All your bases covered!

Normally I don’t trust wiki either, but this is stated rather succinctly. And it’s the truth.

Remember there are a plethora of inaccurate resources, and many of them say things like cypionate has a 10day half life. Enanthate and cypionate have 4-6 days, Ace is 3, prop is 1. We all know this.


Funny thing about drugs though, the more you take, the longer they stay active... so I get where you’re going here.

I like the choice of diet and I think the dosage is fair.
