Couldn't wait (First SARM cycle log)

ForumUser

For those of you that saw my other thread, I said that I'd be cutting until the end of this month... I lied. I will be starting SARM cycle tomorrow. This will be my first log and will be updating this at least every other day. The only supps I currently take are pre-workout and creatine. I will be stopping my preworkout as of tomorrow. The only other thing I've ever taken is epistane.


A few stats:
Age - 23 years old
Height - 5'9-10
Weight - 174.2lbs
Bench (Dumbbell) - 3x5 @ 100 (as of this morning)
Front Squat - 3x5 @ 185
Deadlift - 1x4 @ 315 (as of last week)

Cycle:
Olympus UK LeGenD
4/4/4/8/8/8/8/8
PCT:
Clomid - 50/50/25/25
Olympus Labs Sup3r PCT (recommended dosage)
Olympus Labs Ep1c Unleashed (recommended dosage)

I will be aiming for 2800-2900 calories/day. My maintenance is 2400-2500.

Training wise, I currently workout every body part twice a week. I was initially doing PHAT but now I do my own workouts and just use that as a template.
Monday - Upper body (Everything is 2x8-12 except for dumbbell bench press which I do 3x5)
Tuesday - Lower Body and abs (Everything is 3x8-12 except for calves which I either do sets of 12 or until I burn out)
Wednesday - Back and Shoulders (3x10-12 on everything)
Thursday - Legs and abs(3x10-12 on everything except calves)
Friday - Chest and arms (3x10-12 on everything)
Rest on the weekends

Pictures are from last week after a chest/arm workout

In for this dude currently on LGD/GW stack and loving it!!! Would recommend bumping the doses of LGD from 4 to 8 at the beginning of 3rd week. It's gonna be hard to last longer than that at 4mg trust me ;) and at 8mg s××t gets reeeeaaaal ??? haha. 3 weeks of clomid is being out our there as sufficient PCT from an 8 week LGD cycle although if you wanted to do 4 I can't imagine it would hurt.
All the best with the cycle dude your gonna love it!!!

Sweet, man! I've been keeping up with your log and can tell that you're loving it. The issue with the dosage is that I only got one bottle and from I've read they're no longer making them? I'll try to see if I can get another bottle today before they run out.

I'll start logging next Tuesday (1 week from when I started) just so I don't keep bumping this with a lot of nothing. I will say this though: the placebo effect is a mf'er

Yeh they seem to be going the PH route. Should prob still be easy to get for the next while I'd say?? I've just the one bottle as well and running it 4/4/8/8/8/8/8.
7 weeks will run it out at that dosage so only a week short really.
Thanks for following it!! :) ya loving it,, its top quality ???.

No new updates. I had a headache a day or two ago (same thing happened when I started Epi) but not sure if it was because I wasn't drinking enough water or what. It's gone though.

On another note, last week I was leaving a drugstore after buying a protein shake and an employee (guy) stops me and starts asking questions about fitness because he wants to "get fit as well". Today this guy in class asked me, "How long have you been lifting?"

Needless to say that made me feel good.

I haven't but I wouldn't be surprised if that was the cause. I just started drinking coffee recently too.

I haven't had any strength gains. I do look fuller and am eating well above maintenance without much fat gain. Hoping I can see some significant change come week 4 when I up it to 8mg. But so fair no complaints but also no major improvement just trying to be patient haha up about a lb so far

So it has officially been a week.

Everything has stayed pretty consistent. I'm front squatting 185 @ 3x5 so we'll make that my baseline. Only difference I noticed is that I'm waking up with morning wood now. I don't remember that last time that had happened but it was at least 3x this past week. I'm not sure if it's because of the lgd but figured I'd throw that in there.

I was thinking the same thing. I would do a test cycle if it wasn't so expensive and I went scared of losing my hair, acne, and people noticing.

Anyone else sweating a lot while they sleep? I've woken up with my sheets drenched the past 2-3 nights.

Had another sweaty night. I ate like a pig last night and was woken up at around 5am feeling nauseous. It was probably the stupid chinese food. Everything else is good. I will be increasing to 8mg/day this Tuesday

A small update. I've been breaking out, but I attribute that to stressing out from school. My tendinitis is coming back but I'm going to try to stretch more in hopes that it doesn't come back full blast. I've also been eating a lot. Like, more than I said I would but I also walk a lot so whatever. I'm supposed to be bulking until January anyway so eff it.

Edit: I want to do another cycle of something else to continue my bulk. Any suggestions?

Could try talk to Burnfire,, he bridged into a run of Trest + Halo.
I'm bridging into a cycle of THE1 in 2 weeks :)

Yeah man there are quite a few options out there, definitely bridge that into something else

A bit of bad news. I'm having pain on the left side of my chest anytime I do dumbbell flat bench or dips. It started last week but I figured it would just go away. I have no idea what it is because I've never felt this before. I intend on just working around it but gotta figure out which exercises to do.

Edit: apparently push-ups as well

No new updates. I have been feeling like **** (sleepy/tired) for the past 3 days. I feel great today. Also, turns out my scale is busted. My starting weight was 174, I weighed myself today and it said 165. I weighed myself 30 minutes later at the gym and their scale said 180 so who knows. Now I just gotta hope for the best.

Left side of my chest still hurts. I'm doing lighter weight on pushing movements and incorporating more fly-type chest exercises.

To close this update off, I plan on bridging into halo/trest inspired by Burnfire (and thanks to yates84 for your assistance). I have everything except dermatrest since it seems to be sold out everywhere.


Edit: Adding "progress" pictures. This Tuesday will make 4 weeks.

I was in Vegas this weekend so my diet obviously went to ish. A lot of drinking and no tracking of calories. Back on it tomorrow morning.

Remember, TUDCA AFTER drinking, not before.

TUDCA before drinking can actually cause MORE liver damage. I forget the MOA offhand as to why, but I have the research saved that I can post later when I'm at my PC.

Enjoy : )

Been constantly tired/sleepy this past week. I feel like I can fall asleep anywhere. Nothing has really changed. Still feeling hungry. Still getting comments made about my physique (even though I feel tiny). Still looking for OL dermatrest.

Can't wait to start halo/trest.

Last time I took my LGD was Friday at 6am. I forgot the container and won't have access to it until Sunday evening. How ****ed am I?

Also, should I take the 8mg Sunday evening or just take it Monday morning? If I take it Sunday evening, should I continue taking it every evening or start Monday morning again?

Started taking it again this morning. I have not been able to stop eating. I had a few 3500+ calorie days but I'm tracking everything again and making sure I don't go over 3000.

In other news, I have everything I need on hand for my upcoming bridge. The only thing I'm missing is DermaTrest but I should be purchasing that at the end of this month, hopefully (Come on PHW Supps)

Appetite was insane on lgd too dude I feel your pain!!! I'm currently on my new cycle of OL The1. Appetite is still ridiculous on this!! Eating around 3000kcals average a day,, a lot of the times more... and I'm only aiming 2900 :/ ha way I look at it:
food = gainz ??? ?
Ha. I wouldn't worry too much about fat gain on that run either so long as your not stuffing your face with sh1t. I ate relatively clean on it. Bit of cheat foods thrown in every so often and gained like crazy. In total gained about 8lbs. Doesn't sound like much but that was at 1800kcals a day - a deficit of nearly 1k!!

I haven't even been able to track if I've gained due to my stupid scale. I'd rather eat too much and know I'm gaining than stick with what I was aiming for (also 2900) and not have eaten enough.

Didn't workout yesterday due to the fact that the gym had a fire alarm and I was already running late for class so I couldn't waste time. I like to think that I made up for it today. Had a great chest/arms session.

I'm trying as hard as I can to stick to 3000 calories but it's not working.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯
