Dermacrine Sustain/Post Cycle Support PCT Log

The Cycle:
Weeks 1-4: Epistane 40mg/Dermacrine 5 pumps
Weeks 1-6: Adrenosterone 450mg
Weeks 3-6: H-drol 50mg
I also threw in some Trenadrol 3mg preworkout some days and some M1,4ADD on workout days during weeks 5-6.

Support Supps (also running through PCT):
Hawthorne Berry
CoQ10
SAMe
Saw Palmetto

The Post Cycle Therapy:
Dermacrine Sustain
Post Cycle Support
Retain 2
Trib/Fenugreek
ZMA

Other Supplements:
Poseidon
Adrenaline
PowerFull
Creatine Monohydrate
Beta Alanine

Stats:
5'10
pre cycle weight: 160 lbs
post cycle weight: 169 lbs
Squat: 340 1RM
Bench: 230 1RM
Clean: 240 1RM

Diet:
I haven't been counting cals lately and I've put on a few pounds of fat during this cycle. I will be eating a macro breakdown of 50%/30%-35%/15%-20%: Carbs/Protein/Fat
and hitting anywhere from 3000-3500 cals per day.

I probably won't be updating this log every single day. I will report on mood, libido, strength, and just how I'm generally feeling. I will also be commenting on Adrenaline during this log since I just received it and it's a new supplement for me. I have a SERM on hand in case any problems arise, but I anticipate that won't be necessary.

That sir is a fantastic looking PCT (as well as support supps).

When are you starting the Retain? I would wait a week into pct, personally.

Day 1:

Today is an off day from the gym.

Took 1 Powerfull an hour before breakfast.

Applied 5 pumps of Dermacrine Sustain after morning shower. The Dermacrine Sustain is thicker than the regular Dermacrine and makes for easy application. Sometimes the Dermacrine would escape my fingers and I lost a little bit each application but I don't think I will encounter the same problem with Sustain.

Took 2 caps Post Cycle Support and 1 cap Retain 2 with breakfast.

Thanks Travis, I'll take your advice and hold off on the Retain 2 for a week.

Lol, the nads are looking and feeling kinda small at this point...but suppression only became really noticable during the last week. My girlfriend was commenting on how small they were when we took a shower together this morning, it was quite funny.

On a side note, I took two caps of Adrenaline about two hours ago. I am feeling a clean energy, but not jittery. I am also feeling a sense of Euphoria. I think that Adrenaline is going to be a very helpful tool for my workouts during PCT. I will hold off on making any more general comments/comparisons on this stim until I use it a few more times.

Day 3:

Yesterday I went to the gym and did 50 min. cardio on the elliptical machine.

Today had a 1 hour 45 min. workout followed by 15 minutes of stretching. My workouts are long because I am on a high volume powerlifting program that requires 2-3 min. breaks between sets. I didn't have the same intensity as usual during this workout, but I gained so much strength on my cycle that it is now easy to throw around weights that were hard to throw around before the cycle started .

Adrenaline is proving to be an awesome stimulant. This morning I had absolutely zero desire to workout. I popped 2 Adrenaline and an hour later I was rearing to go. The same thing happened yesterday with cardio.

During the last two days I've caught myself randomly staring at girls, which is something I haven't done since the cycle started, lol.

I have been dosing all supplements as directed on the bottles except I'm holding off on Retain 2 until Saturday.

Day 5:

Yesterday I did 45 min. cardio on the elliptical in the morning and had a 2 hour workout at night. I was actually feeling very good during this workout, I attribute some of it to the Adrenaline which has been giving me a great drive in the gym and some of it to the fact that I have not lost any strength since the cycle ended.

Today I went to the gym and did some abs and stabilization work followed by 45 min. of cardio on a stationary bike.

I am loving Adrenaline. It is now in the top 1-2 spot out of all of the stims I’ve ever tried. RPM is my number one favorite (of course this has more than just a stim effect) and Adrenaline gives me motivation/drive in the gym equivalent to RPM. If anyone is interested in trying a new stim, I highly recommend Adrenaline.

My libido has taken a dip over the last few days, but I still have some desire. My girlfriend just started her period so it couldn’t have come at a better time, lol!

Overall I have been feeling great so far in this post cycle therapy. During my cycle I was eating too many starchy carbs with each meal and not enough fruits and vegetables. Since I started PCT I have been incorporating fruits and vegetables with every meal while cutting back on the starches, but at the same time keeping my calorie intake very high. I have already noticed a welcomed reduction in body fat this week. I don’t feel like I’m in limbo in this post cycle therapy so far because my diet is spot on and I’m seeing results.
