Hey guys, my name is Garrett and I am going to be cutting down for this summer using primarily Anabolic Pump and Recreate from USP Labs. This log is not sponsored, I just heard so many good things about these products I decided to give it a go. This is my first log, so bear with me. :woohoo:
Anyway, I have gotten completely addicted to trainging, so I decided about six months ago to get really serious about my diet, I quit drinking, and I have started to rest more. I am 24 years old (about to turn 25... I will within this cycle), 189 lbs and 6' tall. My avatar picture is pretty much where I am at, it was taken a few days ago.
I just finished a Legal Gear M1D, MMV2 cycle. I cycled 6 weeks. Great gains for my first time around at bulking... (kinda learned to eat right by the end of it... trial by fire lol), 181-189 lbs and I am actually leaner than before. I would say around 10-12% BF... not sure though... I'll get checked next time I go to the gym. I wish I had pictures for before and after, but unfortunately I didn't have the forsight for that at the time. But I do this time around!
Anyway I am on my 2nd week of PCT. I put up a post and I was informed that Anabolic Pump and Recreate were fine to take while on PCT. I think next time around I would probably start my cutting a bit later, once I was done with PCT, but with summer around the corner and me in San Diego... well, let's just say the beach is already awesome... time to turn heads.
So I am going to be continuing my PCT for 2 more weeks (I ran the LG cycle for 6 weeks, so just to be sure I am gonna run the PCT for 4). My stack will consist of these supplements, dosed at the recommended dosages:
Anabolic Pump 2x a day for 5 days, 3x a day rest of cycle
Recreate 2x a day
Advanced PCT *2 more weeks, 3x day
Receptor *2 more weeks 3x a day
Multivitamin 1x a day
Vitamin C 1x a day
Fish Oil 2x a day
Milk Thistle *2 more weeks 1x a day
Addition to stack starting week2 -
Napalm topical from Avant Research
Possibly: Capsiacin Cream
Possibly: MHP Xpel Diuretic
and most importantly: good healthy food.
My Diet and Training will consist of something along the lines of this:
6:00AM
Wakeup Time - Glass of water to wash down supps, supps.
6:15AM
Breakfast - 1 cup Oatmeal, 1 Apple or Bannana; Glass of Milk; Lean Turkey Bacon 3 Pieces, 3 eggs, 3 egg whites.

**********************************************
I am going to be working on high reps with short rest periods. I will occasionally be substituting 2 handed exercises for a more isolated exercise or vice versa. My arm workouts in particular are subject to change as I have a few different variations that work well for me. Any advice is appreciated and won't be taken with anything but an open mind and a grain of salt. I know I work out a lot, I feel that I have cut back to the point where I am not over training anymore, but by many people's standards I am over training. However, especially because of the lighter weights that I will be using during this cycle I feel I have a good start at a cutting down while maintaining some mass. If enough of you agree that it is too much, I will cut back.
