Hi
I've finally decided to run my first cycle after doing plenty of research. I started preloading support supps today and the cycle will hopefully start 7th or 8th next month. I haven't received my Tamoxifen yet and I won't start the cycle until I have it in my hand, but it should be here next week.
Here is my plan:
Cycle:
Havoc 30/40/40/50/50/50
PCT:
Tamoxifen 20/20/10/10/0
Finaflex Pure Test (DAA) 3/3/3/0/0
Formadrol Extreme, not sure about how to dose it along with Tamoxifen, any suggestions?
Lean Xtreme 3/3/3/2/1
AnaBeta 4/4/4/4/0
Craze and creatine monohydrate to help at the gym
Cycle support:
Life Support 4 caps a day
Fish oil 5 grams a day, will double it when the cycle starts
Taurine 2 grams a day for back pumps, will take more if needed
MSM and glucosamine for possible joint pains
Staples:
GHenerate 12 pumps before bed
Post workout shake (whey protein and maltodextrin, 5 fl. oz of both)
Magnesium
Multivitamin
Vitamin D3 1000 IU/day
Vitamin C (1 gram/day, will double it during the PCT to help with cortisol)
My background:
I've been training since 2008. I started at very skinny 109lbs (believe it or not) and have gained good amount of muscle since then. I'm not big or strong but I think I haven't wasted those years.
It was 2009 when I became more conscious about prohormones and designer steroids. I was very tempted to start using them but I knew that I wasn't ready. I didn't have the knowledge to use them properly and I still had much potential to get better naturally (and I still have, I honestly think that most people won't reach their "genetic limits" even though they say that they can't progress anymore).
I ordered my first bottle of Havoc in 2010 but didn't use it yet. The main reason was that I had delayed my military service and I had to go to the army summer 2011. I knew that I wouldn't be able to keep my gains in the army so I decided that it would be better to wait until the army is over and maybe do more research during those 9 months.
I suffered some injuries during the army. I wasn't able to train my calves at all and about a month ago I injuried my back. I haven't done any back squats or conventional deadlifts since then but lately I started doing sumo deads and front squats. My back is almost 100% again and now I will go heavier with them again. I've also injuried my rotator cuffs years ago and that makes it almost impossible to do heavy presses, especially with barbell.
Now when my back is healed and my military service is almost over, it's good time to start the cycle! Train hard and eat big!
Training:
Tuesday: sumo deadlift + supplement lifts for back, legs and core
Wednesday: military press + supplement lifts for delts and triceps
Friday: weighted chins + supplement lifts for upper back, biceps and forearms
Saturday: front squat + supplement lifts for core and legs
Sunday: dumbbel bench + supplement lifts for chest, delts and triceps.
I'll go "heavy" on main lifts and focus on pump and burn on supplement lifts. Progress is Wendler's 5/3/1 for military press, weighted chins and front squats and 5*5 for sumo deads. I used to rep with +400lbs with conventional deads but I'll go slow with sumo deads because it's new for me and I want to take it easy after suffering that back injury. And I have to be careful with my rotator cuffs, that's why I don't do barbell presses for chest and won't go too heavy on military presses and dumbbel bench.
Last three weeks in the military have been quite rough so I'll need these 2 weeks before the cycle to bounce back where I used to be few weeks ago. We had these "bootcamps" so I haven't been able to train and eat much lately but I'm sure it won't take too long to get back on track again. After all, 3 weeks is not much.
Diet:
High protein, high fat, high carbs. High everything. This will be a bulking cycle. I've lost some weight during last 9 months and I am quite lean right now so bulking is only sensible option.
I'm not sure about my exact diet yet but I've been thinking something like this:
1. 250g of quark, 500g of yoghurt, olive oil, fruits, milk
2. post workout shake on training days or whey protein, olive oil, milk and fruits on rest days
3. Rice/pasta/potatoes with chicken/meat/fish, vegetables, olive oil, milk
4. Few slices of dark bread, a can of tuna, vegetables, olive oil, milk
5. 3 eggs, milk, fruits or vegetables
6. 250g of quark, 500g of yoghurt, olive oil, milk
This would give enough calories and protein for a dwarf like me. 1,5-2 grams of protein per pound of bodyweight shouldn't be a problem. Just tuna, quark, yoghurt and milk (2 liters a day) would guarantee me 210 grams of protein per day.
Photos, measurements, stats?
I'll post my stats when I officially start the cycle. I won't be measuring my arms, thighs etc. In my opinion, weight plates and mirror are the best way to decide how I'm doing. That's why I will post my workouts with exact numbers here and maybe throw in some photos before and after the cycle too.
Anyway, here is me on February. I look worse now but you'll see it yourself when/if I take new pics in next week or two.
