Sweet man, I'm in week two of the same stack- gained a few lbs and strength just starting to rise.

the breakdown looks good, I'd save creatine for pct. personally I like to throwin whatever strength supps I can for pct so as to keep the gains as high as possible for as long as possible, i find it helps preserve the muscle after pct.

trest has a half life of 2-3 hours, so for your blood levels sake, I'd try to space them out as best you can. I've seen logs where ppl only dose twice a dat with gains, but I feel it's just gotta be more healthy to maintain more consistent levels, hormones are for real.

Either way I'm in. GL bro.

Alright thanks dude. Yeah I'll probably stop taking creatine until pct. Glad it's working for you, can't wait to feel a bit stronger

Im in! good looking stack, but are you planning on running formeron during your cycle too?

I know that Tr3st aromatizes but are you doing that as a preventive method or just cause?

Day 2 (6/12) Chest/Back
Had a pretty ****ty workout today. Couldn't really do much because my right shoulder was hurting so I didn't even get to do incline bp. Wasn't really satisfied with my workout, felt bad. Hopefully my shoulder feels better soon.

Benchpress: 135x8 225x5 185x8 185x8 185x6 165x8 135x10
Inclined benchpress: 95x12 superset: 40lbs dumbbell presses x 12 (shoulder hurt too much to do this)
Hammer strength: 90x12 180x12 180x10 180x10 1h: 90x8
Smith machine flies: 90x8 70x10 70x12

Deadlifts: 135x8 225x8 225x8 315x8
Bentover barbell rows: 135x10: 5 times
Lat pulldowns: 120x10 150x10 200x10 180x8
Wasn't really feeling it at this point so I ended my workout

Yep, running it during cycle as a preventative method. Probably not necessary but I want to be a little more cautious. Not sure if it's okay because some people say they run it during their entire cycle while others wait until their nips get puffy and stuff.

 

[Zach0075]

Hey man I understand the shoulder problem there are certain exercises that I can't even do. My shoulder days are pathetic usually just like weight high volumes. Just do what you can don't hurt yourself.

subbed & following! Looks like an awesome stack! I ran epi one time & loved it! Got more in my stash. Might have to try it w/ some trest.

I like the idea of jumping to the higher weight sooner, then working down in weight/up in reps. I always thought it made more sense to do heavy sets before you tire yourself out- especially if your trying to aggressively up the numbers.

I'm interested in seeig how it works for you, unfortunately I don't see it very often on here. Keep it goin man!

Day 3 (6/13): arms
I planned to do shoulders and arms today but didnt really want to work my shoulder. Not really worth logging my sets but I was pretty satisfied with my arm workout. Also did some back workouts since I didnt work them enough the other day.

Day 5 (6/15): Rest
Went out to eat with my dad for fathers day, had a cheat meal. Still not feeling very different. I have moments where I feel like I'm on caffeine or something but only during the middle of the day. Shoulder was hurting still during the day but most of the pain is now gone (8:30pm). Probably going to try to do heavy sets for chest and triceps/biceps. Will do chest and back if I feel like I really wanna work hard.
