First Log! Androhard + Dermacrine

[ryansm]

I've been taking my BP first thing in the morning and it is still pretty reasonable. Also late afternoon is slightly higher but still not horrible, especially considering the stims I take throughout the day (coffee, tea, leviathan reloaded in the morning, etc).

So I'm enjoying it so far. I will continue to keep track of my BP, I haven't seen anything on hair loss to be honest but I put some rogaine up there from time to time just to make sure since I have thin hair. But I haven't experienced much, at least no "Witches" scene where all my hair is coming down! (Props to those who get the reference! One horrible movie! haha)

So I may bump it up a little. I'm currently at 5ml at 7AM, 5ml at 7PM, will toss in another 2ml on each gradually and see how I react to it. I may start phasing back nearing the end of the cycle so that PCT is not a major blow in my face.

I'm gonna bump my later dose today with an extra 1ML and will do that until I reach 2 7.5ml doses thorugh the day and see how that goes.

Would just OTC PCT still work even at higher dosages though? I have my SERM but would prefer against using it if I can. I will try to get bloodwork nearing hte end of hte cycle to see overall shutdown and evaluate.

What is your PCT again?

[Rodja]

I'd say your current PCT scheme will still suffice. AHv1 is not very suppressive and would have to be dosed very, very high to cause some major shutdown.

[bla55]

Sounds good, will continue with it then and up it until I reach about 15 - 20 ml a day.

My PCT right now is the TRS from Primordial Performance, my staples and I'm considering if I should toss in some Erase or something else in there too. I also have some leftover Anabolic Edge, but that would just be an overall supp and not really a PCT material per say.

Serm is still at hand in case I notice anything else.

[Rodja]

If it gives you peace of mind, then use a low dose SERM throughout PCT. Roughly a half dose scheme would be more than enough.

[bla55]

I was dropped to page 2... That must mean I am slacking, big time!

I will continue as planned, sitting at 14ml/day today, Aiming to get to 18ml/day and keep it there until the end of the cycle; by my calculations that will pretty much run both bottles dry.

Dermacrine is the one I'm afraid will be running out before the end, how problematic would that be? Will I have to put in an express order on this? I have even bumped it down to about 3 pumps a day, don't even know if that would even be effective Or if I should go at 5 pumps and just let it be once it runs out.

Anyways, to the fun part, workout:

Underhand Pulldown: 16 bars (I'm not quite sure the weight on each...): 14 reps
Hammer Machine Row: 90lbs, 16 reps
Machine Incline Bench Press: 140lb, 13 reps (this one was cut short not on exhausting but my right shoulder was feeling it a little much, I may need to rethink this and go to free weights)
Barbell Shoulder Press: 45lbs, 22 reps. Again, I'm very iffy about my shoulders so I rather take it a little slower than bust it again...
Triceps Pushdown V-Bar with back support: 9 bars, 15 reps.

Today I was even considering a spin class, but I feel like that could take too much away from my legs in order for me to work them out well tomorrow so I will maybe just go with my usual jump rope, eliptical, swim routine.

Keep the Derm at 5 pumps, you will be fine if you have to carry on with the AH solo.

Yeah, I have considered doing one of these classes once just to force me into cardio I hardly do, however, Im too paranoid that the over exertion common in those class would be counter productive to my muscle gains.

I have the same thoughts, " is this goin to blunt growth and recovery? ". Only one way to find out is to try it for a while and see what happens.

Here's my take on this, take it for whatever

I skipped the spin class yesterday, and what I'm going to do is wait until I only do one set of legs on the week (aka, next week) and THEN do the spin either on Thursday and just fight through the pain or Monday / Thursday.

My main concern wasn't the overload or the fatigue, I think I have pretty good recovery from what I've gathered so far, main problem was being a little sore and because of that slacking on today's workout.

So I just jumped some ropes (I actually have a jump rope "split". I jump rope for 3 mins as hard as I can, drop down and do 3 sets of Abs - one for top, one for bottom, one for obliques - and then get back up and do another 3 mins hardcore, repeat 4 times. This ends up being about half hour long usually), just did about 20 mins of eliptical after that.

[rulk22]

^^ I hate it when my stomach muscles cramp up after much neglect and deciding to do them (abs )again.

Just eat and sleep more Of course the older you get this no longer works the same, lol.

This.

In only 3 years, I've already noticed a huge change in my recovery time from when I was training 25-30 hours a week for MMA to now. I attempt to do maybe 15 hours a week and I'm shot within a month.

Ya, if you are performing at a high level it is really noticeable even by your mid 20's, and when you hit 30 it's downright depressing.

Improving and improving...

This was last one of this set:

Widegrip Pulldown: 130lbs, 10, 5, 3.
T-Bar Row: 150lbs, 10, 5, 3.
Dumbbell Bench Press: 70lb each arm, 11, 6, 4.
Machine Lateral Raise: 100lbs, 11, 7, 5.
Cable Triceps Pushdown: 150lbs, 9, 6, 3.

This was today:
Widegrip Lat Pulldown: 190lb, 16 reps
T-Bar Row: 170lbs, 16 reps
Dumbbell Bench Press: 75lbs, 16 reps
Dumbbell Lateral Raise: 30lbs, 18 reps
Cable Triceps Pushdown: 160lbs, 18 reps

Overall good workout, then did my split with the jump ropes again, am beat up right now and ready for bedtime.

Still got a couple more weeks of cycle but am planning on perhaps adding a thing or two to my PCT.

I wanted a fat burner, figured ECA stack was a little much considering BP, I do enjoy some stim though so Erase and the other one from same producer came into mind.

Thoughts on that? ECA would be an overkill right?

I dunno man... in PCT I think carrying on with maintenance at least for calories is going to do you a world of good. Derma + Androhard isn't very suppressive but I'd wait till after PCT to continue with the shredding

Ok, needing advice on something...

I am travelling, for work, in the near future, and will be out not for long but will be out for about 4 days in one trip and only overnight on another.

I am travelling with a couple of other people and my main goal was to not check my bag, but I am guessing I will not be allowed in the plane with Dermacrine and Androhard in my carry on.

Will I really have to check a bag? It's gonna hurt to have to pay the $100 bucks... Besides forcing everyone to wait for my bag claim with me. I'm guessing I can get away on the overnight by just taking it early in the morning a double dose and then the next evening the same double dose (besides it would look ridiculous I think to check a bag for a one day trip...) but I don't think I can get away with the 4 day one.

Thoughts?
