The first thing I notice is a glaring lack of produce. There's some in there, but not nearly enough. Health is most important, but I have some easy solutions for you.

1. Add fruit to your first two meals. It doesn't matter what you prefer, but just eat a piece or two at each of these meals.
2. At you 3PM meal, mix the tuna with a whole avocado. Not only does this provide a ton of calories, but you increase your fats, which are a little low (relatively speaking).
3. At your 7PM meal, add in a fattier cut of protein.
4. You eat a lot of bread. IMO, it's way too much. Try to figure out a way to lessen the amount that you eat each day and replace it with a higher quality source of carbs.

Copy.

What do you think of rice cakes in place of bread for my preworkout meal along with the avocado? I've been eating tuna preworkout for so long that it's second nature, and cheap too.

Glacier Freeze gatorade has 56g of carbs per 32 oz bottle, which is the most that I could find. I might either stock up on that as well or grab some gatorade powder, and use that as an additional carb source for my preworkout meal as well.

I like the rice cake idea. However, do not buy Gatorade; it's basically corn syrup now and is an awful idea. The powder is a better alternative, but still nothing great. My suggestion would be to just eat some raisins or a banana.
 
Update from Friday: Weighed in at 215. Tried legs and my knees were in such bad pain just squatting down a couple inches that I had to switch it up and do chest/back instead, and same thing with friday, still hurt so I did arms. Saturday my knees felt completely fine and I busted out some lighter weight squats to be on the safe side and followed up with leg press and hack squats.

I've been drinking 48-64 oz of whole milk a day now and I'm honestly not going to the bathroom more like I figured I would. Might try out the whole gallon tomorrow.

I'd guess it's probably because milk digests slower. I drink enough water to put me in the bathroom at least 1 time/hour haha It can be very annoying at times but i'm sure it keeps my liver all cleaned up and such. Hope your legs feel better leg pain is extremely annoying :scared:
 
Ryan I stopped the dbol saturday.
I don't know if it's just my mind playing tricks on me but I'm feeling less lethargic the past few days, I have more motivation outside the gym.
Still looking pretty vascular.

Methyls can cause lethargy, I am lucky in that I don't really get hit with lethargy hard, but many see this on and coming off methyls, so that would most likely be the reasoning.

That's kind of what I was thinking. I'm actually glad to be off the dbol.

I weighed myself yesterday for sh!ts and giggles, thinking I would have lost some due to water retention from the dbol and I was a solid 215. Things are lookin good :)

So you are holding the weight gained off the dbol? Interesting...
 
Yeah still holding the weight, its extra interesting seeing how I forgot to bring a lunch yesterday and only managed to eat 2500 calories. Weighed in today at 217 by the way :)

I think it's cuz you didn't answer my pm.. just saying.. :P ..and you never know.. one day miss probably doesn't effect much in the long run

It really doesn't. Consistency with meals is the most important thing. So many people get too OCD about it.
 
Solid progress here :thumbsup: Killing it!!

Just an update, I'm still hanging on to that 10 pounds I got from the dbol, which is telling me the AM has solidified my gains. I'm feeling good about my workouts, and I expect this next four months to go AWESOME. Tried a new routine today for chest. I pre exhausted my tri's and then hit decline hard for 5 sets, followed it up with a couple high rep sets of incline smith, and finished with 2 sets of 21's on thhe cable cross. That is probably the most pumped my chest has ever been! We'll see how I recover from it...

Sounding good to me :)
 
My new pre-exhaust routine has got me feelin good! It's amazing how much more emphasis you can get on a larger muscle group when you've got the auxillary muscles out of the way.
On that note, I think I've been creating a better anabolic environment for the AM to thrive, and I can see my veins are really starting to be and stay present in areas like my ENTIRE pecs, lower abs, lats, and legs.
 
Rodja said:
Veins in the lats? That's something you don't see very frequently.

I've either never seen it before (which is highly unlikely) or it just happened on cycle. Either way, they're there all day every day, and pumped when I lift.

Dude I texted u my pics! (Nohomo) lol. Yeah man I'm gonna post some up and also will dig thru my phone and find a few before pics. Just snapped a couple after chest and tri's today and I'm seeing a change.
 
I welcome myself back after a long vacation at my girlfriend's lake cottage. I got some quality lifts in as well as jet skiing and fishing amongst other things. It was much needed.

I weighed myself today and I'm still at 215 pounds. I know I've been putting down at least 3500 calories on my off days and 4000 plus on training days. I'm getting roughly 70g of carbs per meal, for most meals. I need even more calories!!!
My training intensity is right where it has been in past cycles, supplementation and diet also right on par. But then again, I didn't have as much muscle mass then either, and my last cycle I think I started out at 195, which I had just gotten to prior to starting. I'm wondering what specific thing I need to change, all that comes to mind is fitting in an extra 200 calories here and there between meals and perhaps finding a way to add another meal into my schedule.

I want to get the most out of this last 3.5 weeks. Any ideas?
 
Almond butter or peanut butter is a quick way to add some quality extra calories in. You can add it to shakes or just eat a few tablespoons of it spread out throughout the day. Should be around 200 calories a serving.
 
Yesterday's note: I'm recovering fast from my workouts. My chest/tri's day has become much more taxing on my CNS due to my routine change and I'm still not feeling sore the next day. Still feeling it a bit in my lats from a couple days ago but that was the first time I've done weighted pullups/supersets for back in a couple weeks so that was a given, although the pain isn't nearly what I'm used to.

I felt very strong on my shoulder routine yesterday, adding 10 pounds a piece to my DB overhead press, and 10 pounds to my reverse flyes. One of my goals on this cycle was to add size to my outer delts, and standing in the mirror I can tell I have done this already. Results like this motivate me even more :)
 
I was wondering where you've been the past few days. Glad to here that it seems like everything is working out for you now that you're back home and able to really kill it.

Damn this stuff really is working for you!! Great job keep up the good work.
 
HEY GUYS! I'm on the home stretch. Looks like I've got a week left. I've been really busy at work and haven't had much time to make it to a computer, but here's a brief summary of what has been happening in the life of FL3X since my last update:

I've been eating 1/2lb of ground beef with brown rice and veggies mixed in to replace my tilapia meal of the day, and usually end up eating the same thing for lunch. I've trained myself to force down around 100 grams of carbs coming from whole wheat pasta when I eat my chicken/pasta mix. I've been drinking half a gallon of milk a day, eating fruit 2-3 times a day, and sneaking in spoonfuls of natty pb whenever I get the chance between meals. My caloric intake is much higher now than it was when I started this cycle.

I have seen ZERO signs of hair loss, minimal acne on my face (the only place I get it), no problems with my manhood, have only experienced high bp days a couple of times, and have a seemingly high aggression that lasts all day.

I have added some size to my shoulders as well as my upper pectorals, both of which were goals for this cycle. My tennis elbow seemed to bother me no matter what I take for joint support, but this last two weeks I have been focusing on different tricep workouts that I believe have strengthened my muscles around the elbow area and the pain is now not being noticed during my workouts.

The only negative I have to report is my right knee cap feels like it's going to blow out on leg day, no matter what. I can barely do a proper rep when warming up on squats without feeling like I will fall over, and leg press I've had to decrease the weight and also decrease my range of motion in order to complete reps. The only thing that doesn't bother my knee much is seated leg curls.

My current weight is 217-218. Let's see if I can hit 220 by the end of my cycle :)

I'm also assuming that this AM has an unexpected leaning effect, as I have not seen any noticeable gains in bodyfat yet I feel bigger and stronger all over.
I'll see if I can't get some before and after pics up by the end of my cycle.

great log here bro sounds like this stuff is def the real deal
 
Well I'm on day 2 of PCT now, and weighed in yesterday at 220 pounds! That means I gained over 15 pounds with my 8 week cycle, I'm pretty happy with that. I'm not feeling any negative sides from coming off, and I don't feel less lethargic now, which tells me that the AM didn't make me lethargic at all.
I am very happy with the progress on my upper chest. It might not look like all that much in pictures but the difference to me is awesome!
Coming off this cycle now though I have a bum knee and a bum shoulder, both my fault, and nothing to do with the AM. I will keep this updated time to time throughout PCT. All I am currently running is my Nolva and supports. Will be adding a test booster in soon (still not sure what kind I want yet, I like to try new things.)

Anyone else running AndroMass GO GET EM!

FCK YEAH!! I really want to see pic's of the progression 15lbs is a really really good cycle!! Congrats!
 
My PCT is going smoothly, I don't feel like I've lost any strength coming off and I've been hitting it pretty hard and sleeping even harder to make sure the gains stay.

I weighed in yesterday at 218, so still up 13 pounds from cycle start. I'm betting I'll be back at 220 if not more by the end of my PCT though. Waiting til post PCT to put Phytotest to the Invalid Link Removed.
OH, and if the whole bad knee thing wasn't hindering my leg workouts enough, I got my right foot RAN OVER BY MY BUDDY'S SUV last friday. His girlfriend was driving and I went to hop in the back seat and she started rolling while my foot was still out and before I knew it I was getting pulled back out as my foot was being rolled over, heel to toe. ****ed up my heel pretty badly and there is a fracture on top of my foot, the arch kills, and my calf muscle is sore like a mother****er on the outer side. I'm supposed to use crutches but they're such a bitch to get around with that I've been gimping it at work. I hate taking Ibuprofen cuz I feel like it's gonna affect my pumps in the gym so I pretty much just take it first thing in the morning and call it good.

Well that's a major pain in the arse :( Hope it heals up quick for ya bruther!
 
Thanks guys, not the most comfortable thing to deal with lol. But in the mean time I get to put all that extra focus from leg day into an extra workout day consisting of everything from the waist up.
 
Damn, I've had the same thing happen, got lucky though didn't even leave a scratch. Glad PCT is going well bud;)
 
Yah, cant wait to see before and afters, and damn on the whole ran you foot over thing, just your luck eh?
 
I've had my foot run over in the same way. I was of course wearing sandals, it ripped off some skin, nothing too bad.

Luck of the draw it would seem
