I try to keep everything simple in the weight room and diet. Don't take much time to rest between sets, about 30 to 45seconds. Only meals I really have to prepare is breakfast and preworkout. The lean meats, rice, and potatoes are prepared on the weekends. Been following the diet plan for the most part for a 2-3 months, just added an extra meal while on cycle. During the cycle and during the PCT I am going to try my best to do the big muscle groups (legs, chest, and back) twice a week. I'll have to wake up extremely early, hopefully it will be worth it.

 

[ron5522]

will be posting back and legs later tonight or tomorrow evening. will also weigh in on Friday to see if any weight gain occurred after 1 week

 

[g0hardorgohom]

I'm following. Good luck!

 

[A AesthetiX]

In for the ridee! I'm planning a Stenabol cycle so I'm stoked to see your results

 

[Mystere3]

Are you going for a bulk? If so, I think you might be better off training in a slightly higher rep range.

 

[Forge501]

Im trying something similar next... looking forward to seeing your results. Good luck man.

Tuesday March 25th
Diet was relatively similar to Mondays along with the supplements taken. Only major difference post workout protein source:
7. Post-Workout Meal (within 30mins after workout)-Ar1macare 1cap and CEL Cycle Assist 4caps

1. 6 oz. Tilapia
2. 2 medium Sweet potatoes
35g protein 60g carbs 500cals​

Back Workout
Dual Pulley Lat Pull Down using Lat Pull Down Bar

60lbs 10reps
65lbs 8reps
70lbs 6reps
75lbs 5reps​

4 working Sets on Seated Row Machine (palms facing down grip)
High Hammer Strength Row

75lbs per side 10reps
90lbs 8reps
100lbs 6reps
105lbs 4reps​

Dumbbell Rows (bent over on bench 1 arm at a time)

80lbs 10reps
90 8reps
95 6reps
100 4reps​

Olympic Straight Bar Bent over Rows (reverse grip)

135lbs 10reps
155lbs 8reps
185lbs 5reps​

Sitting Cable Row (triangle attachment)

145lbs 10reps
160lbs 8reps
180lbs 6reps
200lbs 4reps​

Prior to starting cycle I usually do 12reps per set, 10ish on the final set. For now I'm going to stick to this 10, 8, 6, 4 format so I can push around weight my muscles aren't use to. Chest and back definitely felt more sore than usually after the first 2 days. Tough to tell if I was stronger during my first chest and back workouts, hopefully it will be more noticeable during the 2nd week.

If you like any other information I haven't provided just ask, I will try to accommodate you.

Wednesday March 26th
A few changes to diet on leg day, my longest and most brutal workout, which I love.
This Breakfast is usually typical on Leg day, a ton more carbs to start the day.
Breakfast-CEL Cycle Assist 4caps and Ar1macare 1cap

1. ½ scoop protein half glass of juice immediately upon waking up
2. About 6 Egg Whites and 1 whole egg
3. Whole Wheat Pancakes, bottom pancake covered with Skippy's chocolate peanut butter, top drizzled with a little bit of sugar free syrup
60g protein 100g carbs 25 healthy fats(monounsaturated) 1000cals​

Increase in protein and carbs
5. Pre-Workout Meal-Animal Flex

1. 2 cups water, 2 scoops protein, banana, 2 cups dry oats, scoop of peanut butter, handful of strawberries all blended
50 g protein 130g carbs 20g healthy fats(monounsaturated) 900cals​

Impulsive decision to get Chipotle prior to late night Legs for post workout meal.

1. Chipotle Bowl
2. Extra Brown Rice, Fajita Peppers, Black Beans, Double Steak, Hot Salsa, and a little bit of sour cream, cheese and lettuce

60g protein 50g carbs 700cals​

Leg Workout
Warm up on Elliptical
Warm up knees and quads on leg extensions

Did a couple of heavy sets​

Sitting Leg Curls
A few warm up sets

135lbs 15reps
150lbs 12reps
175lbs 10reps
190lbs 7reps​

Plate Loaded V Squat

1 plate per side 15reps
2plates per side 15reps
3plates 15reps
4plates 10 reps
5plates 6reps
Drop Set-5plates 6 reps....4plates 6reps......3plates 6reps
Had extreme lower back stiffness during V Squat. On occasion, my back will tighten up near the end of leg days but today came much earlier. Tried my best to push through it. More focused on preventing back pain during sets, than doing the actual set. Could be back pumps, going to get and start taking Taurine to prevent back pumps, if that's what it was.​

Plate Loaded Leg Press

2plates per side 15reps
3plates per side 15reps
4plates 15reps
5plates 10reps
6plates 10reps
7plates 3reps (lower back pain was just to severe to handle the weight)....jumped right into a drop set 6plates 4reps....5plates 4reps...4plates 4reps....3plates 10reps

After I got up to 5plates per side(4th set and on) I started to lock out my legs after each rep to give my back a chance to breath for 2seconds, usually I just knock out the reps quick without ever locking out my legs.​

Leg Press Machine

4 Working Sets 1 Leg at a time​

Finished with 3 Supersets on the sitting groin and hip abduction machines

I'll usually do some straight leg dumbbell deadlifts but decided to skip them do to lower back pain and ran short on time, took longer between sets cause of the back.
Weighing in on Friday morning, will post Friday evening.

 

[edje007]

in, just bought two bottles for a future recomp/bulk!

Awesome

1 week on cycle
Side Effects:
Negative-Slight lethargy, dry mouth in the morning (drinking a few glasses a water before bed seemed to help a bit), waking up with a sore throat (did get hit with a snow storm mid week, rapid drop in temp might of caused the sore throat), back pumps (so annoying)
Positive-Weight gain, muscle seem denser and kind of look slightly leaner

Expectations for 2nd week on cycle:
Hoping to continue to pack on the solid weight and start to see a bump in strength in the weight room

Any tips on how I should time my PCT, starting it Friday April 25th:
Post Cycle
Sup3r by Olympus Labs 0/4/4/3/2/1
LiquidNolva 20mg/20mg/10mg/10mg
DAA by Prima Force 3g daily
CEL Cycle Support 8caps daily

Cycle Support: 4 in the morning and 4 before bed
Sup3r spaced out evenly throughout the day

Splitting the dosage of LiquidNolva is pointless, half life is like 20hrs if I'm not mistaken. Is there a specific time of day to take LiquidNolva that is best? Morning? Before bed? Might jump start on LiquidNolva the first couple of days at 30mg than drop to 20mg

I will post occasionally during my PCT and than once I finish my PCT. Hopefully I don't lose to much in strength or in weight. Any tips on best method to keep much gains as possible? Expectations on how much I'll likely lose?

Good work man

 

[Olympus Labs]

people have actually maintained and gained strength off the sup3r pct so dont be alarmed

Were your arms .75 inch growth, or did you mis type the ending/beginning measurement?

0.75, bad math sorry.

Good work man

Thanks. Already had good work ethic in the weight room and diet for the last yr. Did some research on pro hormones and decided to add it to the regimen. Might run another cycle in the winter, around November-December

 

[Olympus Labs]

Seems like you had a great experience keep up the hard work. You will continue to get stronger in post cycle so keep it up!

 

[ron5522]

A little over a week into PCT and my weight is fluctuating between 192-193lbs for the most part, a 2-3lbs difference from the end my cycle. Strength loss is barely noticeable, I've been trying to lift the same weight just end up a rep or 2 short of what I was capable of at the end of my cycle. I expect during the 2nd week of PCT my weight and strength stays put, maybe even start to go up slightly.

 

[Olympus Labs]

sounds good man, would love to see how you do after pct.

 

[ron5522]

3weeks into PCT and my weights sitting between 191-192lbs, 3-4lbs off my end of cycle weight. Strength is still near where it was at end of my cycle. The first few days of the 3rd week I tapered down the Nolva to 15mg, and the last 2 days I've been at 10mg and will stay at 10mg the next 8 days, and then I'll go down to 5mg for 2-3 days. I'll continue to use and tamper down the sup3r for a week or two after I'm done with the LiquidNolva.

I could of just kept it simple at gone 20/20/10/10 with the LiquidNolva, but I just liked the the idea of slowly tampering down.
