Yes...? Did you think they wouldn't?

At the way your running epi I expected it would happen, running 30 has been perfect for me. No sides except dry knees and heavy lethargy (bud doesn't help either). And good gains. Size and strength are up.

Yeah it's definitely effecting my right knee, but it's still definitely manageable. Worst case, I'll drop back down to 40 if sides get bad

DAY 21:

Today was chest, shoulders and tricep day. Definitely feeling an overall good pump in the gym through my upper body. Loving the veins in my forearms for sure. Noticing that I'm hungrier, so I'm taking advantage of that and eating more. Minor headache, but I think I'm partly dehydrated from not enough water on saturday and sunday. My moods are probably the worst side effect, and I wish they were more stable. I can go from fine to wanting to hurt someone in seconds lol but I have self control luckily!

Workout consisted of bench press, cable flys, dumbell shrugs, barbell pulldowns, arm extensions, incline db presses etc

Tomorrow is deadlift day, hoping to kill it

Got almost 3,600 cals today, proteins around 220

Dryness in my joints is DEFINITELY here also, it kinda crept up out of nowhere the last couple days. Knees do kind of ache, but still manageable

yeah i get that with my epi runs as well, increasing your cissus and glucosamine sulfate dosages will even it out, and dont forget to keep your water intake up, dehydration will make it worse

It's possible then that just those two days of not getting enough water are what made it worse then..

Yeah alcohol (im assuming that's the cause) will F***k you up on an PH run, not only does it hit your liver bad, but being dehydrated on a winny-clone like epi will really hit your knees and elbows.

[Red9]

I don't drink alcohol...

Is that what you're asking?

DAY 22:

Back bicep and core day my friends. Definitely a great day on deadlifts for me! Felt like I killed it. New PR on deadlift and on lat pulldown. Wish I could just get swole overnight...but it's a marathon as they say I guess, right..?

Definitely wanting to eat more and hungrier. Sleep has been terrible last couple nights and I feel like ass every morning I wake up. Lethargy is king until I hit the gym, and at work I'm active so I feel fine.

-Lat pulldown 120x8 135x8 150x8 165x6
-Deadlift 175x8 205x8 245x8 285x4
-Preacher curls 65x10 85x10 85x5 90x5
-V-bar cable row 90x14 105x12
-Back extension 110x12 90x16 70x20
-planks 2m
-Crunches 75reps 2 sets

Didn't have time to do cable curls or t-bar rows, but always next time! Abs are forming more solidly and are nicely visible after working them. Legs tomorrow, wanna set a squat PR..gotta hit 235 more than once...

[SkubaSteve89]

yeah sorry man, you just posted you had a bad couple of days so i figured that was it.

Oh no, I wouldn't even consider having a drink on cycle. Keeping my liver in tact and healthy enough to finish my cycle strong is a lot more important to me than having a few drinks lol

[Red9]

Eating my second meal, 8 slices bacon 3 whole eggs and an apple with a glass of water. Headed to the gym in an hour to hit legs and see if we can't blast that new PR

Update tonight after work..

[Red9]

DAY 23:

LEG DAY!! Killed it! Sorry I didn't get this logged last night, got home real late. Workout went like this:

-Leg press 195x10, 285x8, 355x5, 375x5
-Weighted calf raise 45x20, 70x16, 95x12
-Squat 125x12, 155x8, 215x5, 240x3

New PR on both squat and leg press. Didn't have time to do anything else.

Taking my Epi right when I wake up and then about every 2.5-3 hours apart from each other. Lethargy still sucks and dry joints still noticeable but not any worse at 50mg. Still really no acne, and I've been working on keeping a better attitude and mood throughout the day. Still around 3,500 cals and 210-230 protein. Need to go shopping again and get some more chickens and rice...

[Red9]

DAY 24:

Rest day. Took my girl out to Red Lobster and had the endless shrimp dish...ate almost 5 dishes of various shrimp. Awesome dinner. Definitely liking how I feel at 50mg and if I run Epi in the future I will definitely run it here the entire time. Gotta wake up a few hours earlier than normal tomorrow so we'll see how that goes...really anxious to hit chest...

[Red9]

DAY 25: Definitely didn't hit my shoulders like I wanted or the way I should have today. Again, ran low on time so just did what I could. Hit a sweet PR on flat bench press today, and loving the way I feel on decline and incline presses!

-Arm extension 60x14, 70x12, 80x10
-Bench press 135x8, 155x5, 165x5, 180x3, 135x8
-Cable flys 30x12, 50x5, 40x10, 30x12
-DB decline press 30x10, 35x8, 40x8, 45x8

DAY 26:

Back/Bicep/Core YEAH BUDDY GETTING GAINS!

Okay so I have been really watching the mirror closer lately, and I just realized that I am leaned the FUKK OUT! It's crazy. I have veins showing from places in my arms that I have never even thought of having veins lol

It may very well be from so much work and sweating, but I am noticing a small small amount of acne. Nothing serious, but something definitely noteworthy. Going to up my Pantothenic Acid in a few days possibly just by one pill...if the acne persists and I can't get it under control on my own that is. Workout today I killed it in deadlifts n made that barbell my beeeetch ahaha jk but I did hit a nice PR and strength is great. I am only 4.5 pounds up in body weight from day 1, but I have definitely lost fat weight as well. Without today was this:

-Lat pulldown 120x8, 120x8, 150x6, 159x6
-Deadlift 175x8, 225x5, 275x5, 295x4
-T Bar rows 70x12, 90x12, 115x8, 115x8
-Crunches 50x2
-Planks 1min & 1min
-Crunch machine 80x50
-Preacher curls 75x12
-Standing barbell curls 85x8, 85x8

Decided to do a couple sets of standing cities this time instead of preachers...didn't feel like praying today :P j/k need all the prayers I can get....but anyways, still got 2 and a half weeks to get these muscles pumped and exploding. Definitely the most lean and muscular I've been all over in general from this cycle. Can't wait for SuperDrol...but that's for another thread another time Legs tomorrow! Personal records lets go!!!

nice man, sounds like your killing it! yeah good idea about not hitting the booze when you"re on cycle, about your acne: epi acne is slightly different to regular zits; theyre very small, painful to the touch and not much pus in them, but they definitely like to bleed! atleast your hairline isnt suffering either, which alot of people have reported shedding whilst on cycle.
