What's up everybody?

This will be my first online log I've ever done, however, this is not my first rodeo when it comes to D.S and AAS.

I've been training/fighting in MMA for 3 1/2 years now. I walk around at 170-175lbs and cut to 145 or 155 (depending on where I fight), so it's hard for me to hang onto size. I'm taking a year off from fighting to better my game and maybe get 10 - 20 lbs of solid mass added so I can move up a weight class (probably stay at 155, and never cut back down to 145).

So, with that said, here are all my vitals:

Time to kill the gym

IMMEDIATELY AFTER WORKOUT =
1 scoop whey protein + 1 scoop casein protein + glutamine

1 Hr later

I've never bridged before, for that matter, I've only done a cycle of hdrol. But I wish you great gains,... keep us informed!

You might be able to get away with 10mg of MDROL throughout the last part of the bridge, 20 may not even be necessary. Also, your Epi dose looks good (but more could be better ;)). I know with me, 50-60mg is lovely.

One more thing, if you're diet is down and your training too - prepare to get JACKED!

How come you decided to overlap with 6 weeks and not go separate for 7?

I ran a bridge very similar to that. Unfortunately Epithios don't seem to work much on me, but it should have been an excellent stack. Enjoy the Superdrol, i sure did.

Wow, your math is correct! Lol, First cycle was when I turned 21 and was Mdrol. 8 weeks later I ran a Pheraplex/Winstrol bridge, then about 4 months ago I ran an epi pulse.

Thanks! Are you saying run Mdrol 10/20/10, or add another week and run it 10/20/20/10?

Hey bro.. have you ever ran Pheraplex or a clone? just curious to see how well you responded if so. I don't respond to Pplex or original AX Pheraplex at all, but seemed to blow up over night on Epi.

I ran it at 10/20/20 my first time. I saw results at ten, but even more at 20 and no sides (other than minor acne). Thanks for the advice though!
I'd wager that part of the reason you noticed more at 20 was simply due to the fact that it was the 2nd week of the cycle and the compound was really starting to kick.

Subbed I am thinking of switching out the X-Tren bridge I was going to do for some EPI/Havoc. The last cycle I ran of Havoc was great and it made me feel amazing.

Nice thing about Epi is that most people don't get any real nasty sides and mild shutdown so by the time you roll into Mdrol you'll already be kickin with strength and be primed for some huge mass gains!

ALso noticed your taking life support which is great but I would say based off length of this cycle Cycle Support would be better used if you like the taste. More servings in it at least.

Watch the toxicity on this too Mdrol by itself is bad enough!

Weird! I respond great to Phera Plex. Some kind of inverse relationship going on there

R = response value (0<R<1)

(R)Phera = 1 - (R)Epi

& (R)Phera + (R)Epi = 1


Here's some response values for me

Superdrol: 1.0
Pheraplex: .8
Epistane: .2
Halodrol-50: 0
Mega-zol: 0

My body doesn't respond to most compounds. Stims don't work unless triple dosed or so.

Answer pretty please :bruce1:
Are you asking why I don't run it like this:

Epistane: 40/40/40/40/00/00/00
M-DROL: 00/00/00/00/10/20/20

?

Just trying to clarify so I can answer accordingly.

I know it doesn't apply to this log, but for those interested, here is the transformation I made in 1 year. I gained about 25lbs naturally (the first pic I was at 130lbs) then I cycled MDROL for 3 weeks and gained about 15lbs. The second pic is right after PCT for my MDROL cycle. I weighed about 170 and look exactly the same. I'll still post a new photo, but just thought I'd share this with everyone.

Haha thats funny. I don't know why I blurred it out... oh well...

Do you think I would benefit more by running it the way you mentioned, or were you just asking out of curiosity?

cjfight, don't sound so surprised! (^_^) You just don't normally see guys start lifting that early. Good for you though...wish I had.

Since you've done both Phera and Mdrol in the past, which put more mass on for you? I'm guessing Mdrol since you're going with it again.

Lol Yeah I've been lifting since 12, though the first 2 years I lifted I did no legs.. mosty chest and arms (pretty boy muscles, ya know'!).

I didn't respond to Pheraplex (original formula from AX). M-Drol was nothing short of amazing. It compared, for me, almost 100% to Oral Winstrol. Same gains, same sides (although the only sides I got from both compounds was increased Acne). After I run this cycle I'm going to take 2-3 months off, then probably do a Winstrol, Tbol, Test cycle. That's a long ways off yet, so I'll stick to what I have at hand right now!

Thanks for joining in on the discussion brotha!

The cycle looks perfect then. I see your logic. You blew up off your Epi pulse and did even better off MDROL so the combo should be a great mass cycle given how you responded to each in the past...now that's how you plan a cycle!

how do you do a shoulder/back split? i would think shoulder/chest would be better. Dont neglect your back a solid well developed back is a thing of beauty.

Actually, if anything, I neglect my shoulders now. But, not because I want to, but because of an old injury I got when playing Baseball (was a pitcher). Sounds lame I know, but I can't do dumb bell shoulder presses, military bench press, etc. My shoulder just locks up.

I had neglected my back, and the last 6 months I've been working it like crazy!

I may try some aflutop for my shoulders...

Pics are coming tomorrow. Start Epistane tomorrow as well! I'm taking 20mg in the am, and the other 20mg about 6hrs later.

Not sure why I said I was starting on a Tuesday... must'a been tired or something. Weird.

oh, that sounds good then i mean most of the time if you see a split like that the guy is not hitting back hard enough. If you have shoulder problems lateral raises should be enough for you. thats if you hit back HARD and get the rear delt work from that. Hit incline chest hard too and get the front delt head with that.

Thanks piston! I've recently started doing incline more. there is still a tingling pain when i do it, but as long as its with the bar and not dumbbells i can stand it.

DAY 1
(Pics to come tonight. Had to wait and get cable for camera)

Started Epistane dose off at 20mg in the morning, then around 3pm (6hrs later) I took another 20mg. I believe I will take 40mg the first week, then maybe bump it up to 60mg if everything is going well.

Side note: I had to start taking a higher dose of glucosamine. I believe I'm getting arthritis in my elbow's and it's starting to hinder my workout intensity.

Today was arms day (tri's/bi's):

Dumb Bell Curls: 60x8/60x8/60x8
Dumb Bell Hammers (flat bench): 45x10/45x10/45x8
Rope Curls: 180x10/180x10/180x10
Tricep Press: 210x10/210x10/210x10
Hammers: 45lb (15x3) plate immediately followed by triangle push ups (15x3)

Post workout: 1.5 miles around town

Today was an off day to say the least. My elbows were bugging me pretty bad. Hoping the pain subsides. If not, I may begin an aflutop treatment program.

Obviously since its the first day I can't say I felt any different.

I'll weigh in tomorrow morning upon waking up to give you guys an exact weight.

Yes sir I am curling the 60's. Probably will bump up to the 65's next week. Always had pretty good bicep strength. My posture is straight as an arrow as well. Wish I had a video of it.

As far as starting lower then raising dose.. I have no real answer for you as to why I don't do it.. lol

I'll add day 2 and day 3 logs later today when I get home (forgot my notebook and I'm at work now).

Although Day 3 was a bad day in the gym. I did Dumb Bell bench. 110 x 3 / 110 x 3 / 110 x 3 and then had to quit my workout. I had 0 motivation. None at all. And my elbow was killing me from an armbar I was put in a few hours earlier at Jits practice. Hopefully I'll be able to workout tonight.

Today's weight: 171lbs (Been eating like a hog. Everything in sight that is somewhat reasonable. Worst thing I ate the last 4 days are those damn Oreo Cookie ice cream bars)

QUOTE]

Don't believe that. Arthritis is an autoimmune disease. At your age it's extremely unlikely. If you practice Jits and get in arm bars, well right there is possibility for cartilage strain/damage. I got put in arm bars and they ROYALLY jacked up my elbows. Debilitating pain.

Get some Cissus ASAP and maybe try an Epsom salt bath, but don't stay in too long because the salt can dehydrate you.

Good luck,

-Papa!-

Plan looks solid. I ran this same bridge last summer.
Havoc 30/30/40/40
SD 0/0/0/10/20

I punked out after the second week of SD because libido tanked and I started having crappy workouts. The only other side I had was lethargy throughout the entire cycle. PCT was rough at first because I've never been shut down so hard. PCT got progressively got better after the first week. I gained 7 pounds of lean mass and kept every ounce of it after pct.

Here's the link:

Post #1 and #2 on the first page have all the info you'll need so you don't have to waste time reading through the whole thing.

CJ are you training during this time. Just wondering becuz i know when i train MMA that is sometimes I have some crazy pumps when I am on s-drol during grappling or pad work. BTW how long have you been training. i've been involved approx 10 years and have had the privledge of training with many of the top names royce, renzo, cesar, fairtex fighters etc . IF the back pumps get to much try taurine it always works for me

Hello all,

Sorry for the lack of updates. I do have them in my notebook and I will begin adding them soon.

In a quick little update, here's where Im at and what has been going on, oh yes, I HAVE PICS AS WELL! These were taken about mid-way through the Epi.

I have about 4 days left of Epi. I gained really nothing from it this time. Can't figure out why. Diet is on and everything. Just didn't respond well. Even upped it to 60mg/ED for 2wks and still not much. I felt more fuller, and looked bigger, but wasn't lifting heavier weight or much more heavier in weight (may +1-2lbs).

I started the Mdrol about 6 days ago, and just like Mdrol does, I have gained about 10lbs right off the bat. I started at 170lbs (more like 168lbs) and I'm now, today, at 181lbs. My BF% has gone up a bit, as I don't do as much cardio when it gets cold (I like doing all my cardio outside...). I look bigger esp. in my shoulders/arms/back. Legs are slowly coming along. I warmed up with 225lbs on bench the other day, then went straight to 285lbs. Felt good.

Mood has been a little touch and go. I don't believe in roid rage, but I do get a little bit more annoyed when on Mdrol. Some days I'm as happy/optimistic as can be, then other days (yesterday) I seemed a bit aggravated and pessimistic. I still have 3 more weeks of Mdrol, and can't wait to see how much weight I end up gaining. Last time I did Mdrol the weight gain slowed around the 2nd week.

Well I had pics but AM is not allowing me to add them until I up my post count. That's pretty dumb. Don't plan on posting that much in time to add my pics, so you'll all have to wonder or hope AM changes that policy. Kind of ruins the log. Here comes an Mdrol mood swing..

I ran a Havoc cycle w/ Superdol pulsed at the end. I think you should do pretty good on this.
