Kill it.
I don't know if erase and rehab have the same ingredient or not. But regardless, you've got what you need, here.
 
Use the rehab accordingly, start the erase at one cap until rehab is finished then increase the erase if you want after rehab is finished. in your 4th week of pct you'll have 125mg of the active ingredient at the way youre dosing it
 
Will do. I'll just wait to start the erase until I finish the rehab to prevent rebound. Any other suggestions or comments? I've been preloading damage control and my first day of stano will be this Sunday. Planned it out so the last dose is before my competition.
 
Starting in two days, getting pretty excited for this lol. Really hoping the dmz helps my bench shoot up, I'm aiming for 380 at the meet.
 
Yea I've heard a lot of really good things about dmz. I'll probably post some pictures tomorrow night, and then again after 4 weeks, and some after the full cycle.
 
dope stack , you dont need all that erase,would like to try that stack in near future
 
Dude, you're already lean and strong as hell! Go you, bro. Enjoy this run and don't let anything distract you. drink 2x as much water as you normally do.
You'll be pretty damn thick when this is all over...
 
I like the cycle. A lil osta might be nice on cycle and/or in pct, it's great for strength.

Also, consider xgels in pct.

Thanks man, means a lot. And will do, I'm excited to see what happens.

Thanks, I'll look into that a little more. I've heard conflicting things about osta in pct though, what's the reasoning behind it?
 
Just took my first dose of stano, let's get this started! For the first two weeks I'll be doing 1 morning, 2 pre workout, 1 night.

No need for the night time dose. Spilt them up. Morning and pre workout only.
 
It has a short half life so you're supposed to spread the doses.

IMO. Spread them every 6-8 hours. No need to have it in your system at night. Two dosages is good enough. Just my input.

It's to battle lethargy. Gives you focus and that aggression in the gym not for bedtime lol
 
I see what you're saying. I'm only taking 1 at night though. When I bump up to 1000, I'll be taking 2 morning, 2 preworkout and 1 at night just to keep my blood levels consistent.

It's potentially suppressive, but at low dose (10 mg) you can recover just fine on it with a serm. I actually run 20 in pct and recovered fine. Running it in pct guarantees you'll keep all your gains.

I'll look into it a little more and might have to order some for pct. thanks for the info.

Routine looks interesting. Would like to see what the whole thing is, but I guess you'll be letting us know as you post. I'm guessing it's this 1-2 times per week, alternating with lower body/legs 1-2 times, in a A/B/A and B/A/B fashion?

It's definitely unique lol. I actually end up working every muscle 3 times a week. Chest/back/arms mon, wed, fri and legs/shoulders/lower back tues, thurs, sat. Each days exercises are different and I take days off as needed if I start feeling run down or strength isn't where it should be. It's been working great for me though.
 
Have you ever tried 5/3/1 or other 5x5 3x3 programs? The wendler program worked great for me when I was powerlifting. Now I rarely load up 3 plates for bench except during strength week.

I kinda looked at all of them and just made my own lol. I incorporate a lot of different sets and reps into my workouts. I do 5/3/1, 3x5, 3x3, 3/2/1 it just depends on the day and how I'm feeling. All my reps are strict pause by the way.

I cant wait till week 3 lol
Yea me either, only one problem. I'm gonna be on a 7 day cruise the whole 3rd week so I'm not gonna be able to update at all. Thank god the ship I'll be on has a nice gym with free weights so it shouldn't effect my progress too much. I will continue the same diet and do as much of my workout as possible, may have to improvise a little though. But as soon I get back, it's gonna get serious lol.

what a way to start a cycle .. eat as much as u want .. do a libido test every day possible with different person lol
 
Unfortunately the cruise gyms tend to only go up to 75 lb dumbbells but you can provably make it work.

I'm gonna have to make it work, don't have much of a choice lol. But atleast it's just the first week of dmz, then I can get back in my gym and stack on the weight for 5 more weeks.
