  1. Ostarine test base options

    I ran a successful ostarine cycle last year with dermacrine, though i did lose some libido and felt lethargic on weeks 6-8. Is there another good option for a test base other than dermacrine? Andro the giant? Could i "stack" test bases? Double the dermacrine pumps? Perhaps the lethargy at...
  2. Ran epistane, ostashred... Whats next? Andro?

    With epistane, i had amazing strength gains and pretty good size gains. My libido absolutely died around week 5. With ostashred, i had moderate strength gains and a bit of size gains (but i was cutting aggressively. My libido was ok but definitely lowered around week 6. For my next cycle, my...
  3. Ostarine PCT questions

    I totally dug my cycle, got down to 8% or so bodyfat, no strength loss, never been so lean that I can see a bunch of veins in my lower abs. Success! I had a massive libido drop midway through until i added dermacrine, so my questions are going to revolve around maximizing my libido and keeping...
  4. Rest between volume sets on 5/3/1, how many reps to "lose"?

    "Rest long enough to be able to hit 10 reps on all sets" The implications of this, if im understanding you correctly, would be that id be resting 3 minutes for most of my volume sets. To do this and get adequate volume to disrupt homeostasis, id be in the gym forever. I also watch guys much...
  5. Rest between volume sets on 5/3/1, how many reps to "lose"?

    I get the low rep range sets. Im talking about the volume sets, ie the standard recommendation of 8-12 reps x 3-5 sets Ive used rest periods of 30 seconds, 1 minute, 2 minutes, 3 minutes. They all seem to "work", as in my big 4 lifts continue to improve, but surely there is a more nuanced...
  6. Rest between volume sets on 5/3/1, how many reps to "lose"?

    how many reps should I be "losing" on my volume work? Very short rest periods ala rest-pause cuts my reps at least by half. A more standard 1 minute rest has me losing a couple of reps each sets. 2+ minutes and i may only lose a single rep. Ive been moving from more straight set, long rest...
  7. Bloat: cortisol or estrogen?

    Toward the end of pct, i sometimes bloat up. Ive always got an AI and reducext on hand. Is there a reliable way to tell if the bloat is coming from excess cortisol vs excess estrogen?
  8. Pct after ostarine, recs?

    Cliffs: whats your ideal recommended pct after an 10 week ostarine cycle? -25mg ostarine, 4 pills anafuse, 3 pumps dermacrine. The ostarine has made my cut an absolute breeze. I still have two weeks left, but ive already hit my bf% goal of 8%. I figure ill just keep cutting for another 2...
  9. Ostashred + anafuse with digestive enzymes

    ostashred and anafuse hurt my stomach a bit. Nothing too serious. Today, i took a broad spectrum digestive enzyme with both and had zero digestive issues. Are there any issues with taking a digestive enzyme with my ostashred and anafuse?
  10. Ostashred- hard nipples, any concern?

    Im taking ostashred and anafuse for a week now. Last night i felt it kick in. I had some calf pumps (nothing like epistane), and my sleep was a little wonky. Woo! So this morning i woke up and my nipples were rock hard. Theyve been hard all day, like i just took a cold shower. My nipples are...
  11. Ostashred, collagen, ligaments, etc

    I'm currently using ostashred and anafuse on my cut. Reading the scientific literature regarding ostarine and its positive effects on collagen, ligaments, and tendons, ive been wondering- has anyone here used these properties to improve anything other than body composition? It seems like perhaps...
  12. Ostashred + Anafuse , missing anything?

    Cycle: 8 weeks of ostashred + anafuse Pct: Nolva 20/20/10/10 Reducext 0/0/3/3 Daa 3/3/3/3 Questions: 1. Nolva dosage... overkill for a sarm? 2. I see some logs reporting a loss of libido at week 6. Would it be prudent to add dermacrine around week 4? 3. Am I forgetting anything? History...
  13. Mouth guard while lifting?

    Sometimes I use my mma mouth guard on heavy compounds. Usually I just chew some gum though.
  14. Ostarine / ostashred compared to epistane?

    I've run an epi + dermacrine cycle. I've also run a solo dermacrine cycle. I'm looking for something stronger than solo dermacrine, but less harsh than epi. Seems like ostarine is the way to go. Thoughts? I'm looking to add some strength and mass at maintenance, perhaps a slight deficit...
  15. Ratios of fat

    How do you guys split up your fats? Ie the percentage of saturated to poly to mono, etc. I realize this is a bit nitpicky, but ive had my macros dialed in well for a while.
  16. 5/3/1: t-rex arms solution?

    5/3/1 press (sometimes heavy singles) 5x10 press 5x10 pullups, switched to chinups when I cant hit reps -accessories, if im recovering ok: side raises, incline db presses, more lat work 5/3/1 bench (sometimes heavy singles) 5x10 bench 5x10 row -accessories: db incline presses, db presses, more...
  17. 5/3/1: t-rex arms solution?

    I didnt think I needed direct arm work, but its pretty clear looking at myself in the mirror that my arms are way behind.
  18. 5/3/1: t-rex arms solution?

    I never added direct arm work to my 5/3/1 cycles, so my arms are looking a little disproportionate. I like the 5/3/1 groove I'm in at the gym with compounds, so I'm going to do my arm work at home with dumbbells. Any thoughts on how to structure this? There are just so many options with regards...
  19. Daa Pct for solo dermacrine?

    Im on month 2 of my cut. So far so good, but this is usually the time my libido takes a little drop. Ive got a leftover bottle of dermacrine, so i'd like to run it solo for 4 weeks. Based on other solo dermacrine logs, just a standard otc pct is fine. But... Since i have tons of leftover nolva...
  20. Epi + Dermacrine PCT Check-In

    I did nolva, daa, reduce. I left out the reduce at first but added it in. It definitely made me shed some water weight and made my workouts less stressful.
