I decided to just for the heck of it run this as a natural bulking cycle. Seems my quest for abs failed for the summer, mostly because i kept attacking the fat too aggressively (2+lbs lost a week) so i'd loose some muscle along with the fat, which was pointless. Then i'd get a 2-3lb rebound at the end that was half fat, and end up just about where I started. So I need to do a gentle slow gradual fat loss, but that means I wont loose enough by end of summer to see abs anyhow. So i'm going with a slow light lean and clean bulk from now till november, at which point it will turn into a dirty bulk thru christmas, and then a slow gently cut from jan - may. Today i'm at 193 and about 14-15% bf, i'm hoping to be able to hit 205-210 at close to the same bodyfat by jan 1. Given that i'm an endo, it shouldn't be too hard to gain that, and gaining it slow while working out hard will help minimize fat.

Supplementation will be
xfactor - 5/day for 1250mg
pro-anabol 3/day
Bad ass mass 2/day
Fenugreek seed 5g/day

multivitamin, fish oil, flax oil, etc all as per normal, nothing exciting there. no fat burners, and the only nutrient repartitioner i'll be taking is Neovar recomped . The only other Applied Nutriceuticals products i'll likely be using is Lipotrophin PM (ok I guess that as a fatburner, I generally think of it more as a great sleep aid ) and osteobolin.

I only have enough of the proanabol + BAM to go for one month, not sure what i'll do with the second month. I have enough x-factor to go 2 months at this dose. I may buy more proanabol + BAM if I like it, or I may shift to hyperdrol x2 and some other ergogenic compound. I've got 2lbs of fenugreek seed, so thats like half a years worth at this dosage

I'll edit this tomorrow and post measurements, maybe pics

Chest 42
L Bi 14.25
R Bi 14
L forearm 11.25
R forearm 11.25 (betwen 1/4 + 1/2)
waist at pants 35.25
waist at belly button 35.25
shoulders 48.5 (kind of iffy on this measurement, doing it by yourself is always rough)

today was first workout on that, i'm going to try and mix higher reps and lower reps in the same workout for a few exercises

db incline press (steep)
30*20 55*10 65*0 60*6 50*9 50*6

fly
25*12 25*12 25*12 25*12

decline bp superset with squeeze press
90x8-10x8, 90x6-10x8, 70*9-10x8, 70*6-10x8

not sure why the 65s wouldn't go up. the 60s were hard to get up, but then I cranked out 6 clean reps anyhow. didn't sleep too well last nite, the 4 year old slept with us (along with the 9 week old) as i had been gone a few nights this week for work.

First up at the show!! Looks solid as usual Easy. This should be a nice run for you. The supplementation looks great. I think the HDX2 would be a nice follow-up behind the X-Factor/Anabol/BAM run. I'll be following this one for sure. I started a new log as well, if you're interested. I titled it, "Thundergod's Sikk Son Of Odin Strength Cycle". Have a great day Easy!! Hit it hard now that you're going for a lean-bulk!! THE THUNDERGOD

Good luck with this.

i like the plan!!!
slow and steady is the key!
everyone wants quick results but it just doesn't work like that, especially when you get to the refining stage you are at.
changing your physique is slow process that most can't stick with because they are too impatient.
you've already accomplished an impressive transformation in a short period. looking forward to seeing continued improvement!

Sounds like a good plan.

yeah, I've done the hard down then bounce back a few times, loose 8lbs in 3 weeks, then gain 4 back at the end, with the 8lbs lost being 4 fat + 4 muscle, and the 4 gained back as 3 fat and 1 muscle, and i'm more or less at the same bodyfat, just a little lighter. Doesn't work, and i figure if I can by january add 10-12 lbs of muscle (including a cycle from nov-dec) then my BMR will be a good bit higher, so easier to drop the fat

back and a little on bis today

wide grip pulldown superset with vertical rows
160x10-50x12, 160x10-50x12, 160x10-50x12, 160x9-50x11, 180x6-70x10

db rows superset with concentration curls
40x20 - 25x20, 40x13-25x10

and that was enough. bicep and forearm pump was crazy, and could feel it in the lats too. only pump effecting possible preworkout was a clearshot, the citrulline malate could have helped. this pump was as nice as if I had taken ragnarok or hemodraulix. sweating like a pig too

You keeping on the Fish Oil Easy? I just finished my 50-day X-Factor run, and by the end I noticed some drops in mental focus/energy which I think was partly due to the removal of Omega-3's from my diet. Also I got no increase in DOMS, but that might just be my crazy metabolism lol.

PS is the fenugreek seed the Testofen extract, or something different?

[delsolrob]

I want in on this ride; lets see how Easy does it!

[EasyEJL]

i'm avoiding fish oil for this one, other than what i'll get eating fish.

The fenugreek is plain fenugreek seed powder, I got 2lbs for $12, figured it was worth a try at that

[jjohn]

Allright!! GO EASY!
