Thanks, time for a little update.

I'm on a reverse diet adding 100 kcals a week and was feeling a little bloated and full, after the first day that was gone and now I'm getting hungry before the meals. Weight gone down the first days and I think is related to that.
No sides to report, forgot to measure BP, will do it later today.

Day 2 - 70.6Kg - Back/Traps/Biceps/Abs
Day 3 - 70.5Kg - Chest/Shoulders/Triceps
Day 4 - 71.3Kg - Light cardio 30min Treadmill incline walk
 
First week passed, weight is moving up.
I was extremely thirsty on the first days, but now it seems back to normal.
My BP is high 13/9, it's usually 12/6, I'll keep monitoring this.

Day 5 - 71.5Kg - Legs
Day 6 - 71.3Kg - Back/Traps/Biceps
Day 7 - 71.7Kg - Off day
Day 8 - 71.9Kg - Off day
Day 9 - 72.2Kg - Chest/Shoulder/Triceps/Abs
 
I was thinking to buy brawn epi but left buying it. This is gonna be great reference to me. Thanks for logging it.

Time for an update, I've been feeling bloated lately and with heartburn, I think it's the cycle assist, I'm stooping it for a couple of days to see how it goes.
Workouts have been great, increase in strength all over.

Waist is up a little, 82cm, that's +0.5cm (+0.2'')

Update, cycle going well, but I'm starting to get some sides.
During workouts I'm getting such intense pumps that it's actually painful and forces me to reduce volume.
One thing I forgot to mention before is libido, it was high on the first week, normal on 2nd and 3rd and a little down on the 4th week.
I'm close to 5Kg gain, no fat added, waist almost the same, I'm very happy with the results.
I decided to end the cycle early, gone finish the bottle and do 30 days only, I know I will get more sides from now on and gains will diminish, usually I get 2-3lbs on the last 2 weeks.

Day 23 - 74.2Kg (+3.7Kg, +8.14lbs )
Day 24 - 74.7Kg (+4.2Kg, +9.24lbs )
Day 25 - 75.1Kg (+4.6Kg, +10.12lbs )
Day 26 - 75.4Kg (+4.9Kg, +10.78lbs )
Day 27 - 75.3Kg (+4.8Kg, +10.56lbs )
 
Crazy that you gained 11lbs in 4 weeks on Epistane. Usually doesn’t even kick in until week 3-4. You only raised your diet a 100 cals a week. Epistane must agree with you.
 
True, and that's why I love it.
I took some phs several years ago, and Epi was the best, unfortunately I did several mistakes back then and lost almost everything.
This time I'm doing everything to hold maximum gains.
 
In. I’ll probably be running it in October or whenever I can freaking source, on top of my trt. Seems like it’s goign great for you so far. I’ll be reading! Thanks for the log.

Maximize that sh!t!
 
No weight gain in the last days, started PCT today.
I'm dosing reduce XT at 2 caps a day for 6 weeks, I had join problems in the past with cortisol blockers.
The cycle went very smoothly, nice gains in size and strength, no fat gain and no significant side effects.
I will be on maintenance calories throughout the PCT and until new year, I'm curious to see how much of these gains I will be holding.

Day 28 - 75.8Kg (+5.3Kg, +11.66lbs )
Day 29 - 75.3Kg (+4.8Kg, +10.56lbs )
Day 30 - 75.4Kg (+4.9Kg, +10.78lbs )
PCT Day 1 - 75.3Kg (+4.8Kg, +10.56lbs )
 
I've been on vacations this last 2 weeks, not much time for updates.
Yesterday got back to work and it seems I was holding some water weight, was extremely thirsty and the weight dropped 2lbs next day.
The PCT runned smoothly, libido is good, but I'm getting a little disappointed with results.

PCT Day 3 - 75.7Kg (+5.2Kg, +11.44lbs )

Final thoughts

Weight remained around +2.8Kg which means 50% of the gains, for a 30 day cycle looks very good.
The PCT went smoothly, only issue I had was my BP, nolva raises my BP, was around 14/8.8, normal values are around 13/6.
Libido was low at the beginning, but started to raise fast and I was feeling pretty normal around week 3.
My waist remained on 82cm meaning all gains were lean.
If you have any questions feel free to ask!

I'm doing a slow cut next (-0.5/1lb a week), do you guys think it's ok to do it in 2 weeks or should I wait a couple of months and do a cutting cycle?
