My first real cycle-12 week log!

Starting to get the alpha-male mind set. That's what I meant by Neanderthal, just couldn't find the words. I've been very quick to speak my mind and haven't backed down from anything. I think this is a very good thing, as I've always been a bit of a push over.

Try running the bottle in warm water before drawing and injecting. Make sure you rub the injection site afterwards.

Warmed it up this last time, went in smooth, drew fast, easy peasy. But today, a day later, it developed into a painful lump. I didn't rub the area but maybe that'd be a good idea from here on out.
 
With a high bodyfat like that you shouldn't consider steroids. Powerlifter or not, you can get a seizure from bad cholesterol levels rising and high blood pressure. you should really re-think using steroids for your own safety. Very Dangerous running steroids at a high bodyfat percentage.
 
Testing blood pressure daily and doing bloods every 6 weeks. Blood pressure is 128/77 as of this morning, right around my normal range. LDL before cycle was 110 and hdl was 68. Not rethinking anything. I've accepted the risks here, and decided that they are worth taking it to the next level personally and in the gym.
 
Also, I've NEVER heard of the phenomenon that you're talking about.... Blood pressure and cholesterol cause cardiovascular issues. Anyways, I'm under close monitoring by my doctor and s/o who is a nurse.
 
Guy, I won't be responding from negative comments from here on out. I won't be rethinking anything, I won't be stopping anything, I know the risks, I've accepted the risks, I'm in a deficit of 500 calories daily and am dropping considerable weigh throughout this cycle. I am on an extensive cycle support regimen and I know my body well. I appreciate the concerns, but they are unwanted.

You will get used to it, ba or oil is probably the culprit, but it will get better, virgin muscles take a few pins to get used to it. Good luck
 
Weight is still up due to water retention but I am looking leaner. Cutting carbs down and increasing protein and fat intake. Current macros are sitting at approx. 40g carbs, 110g fat, 175g protein for a total of 1850 calories. My typical intake for maximum performance is around 2.5 times that. Cardio is at a half hour session every other day solid state. Depending on how I feel, the fats may go down to 100g and the protein may go up to 200g. We'll see how everything goes for this week.
 
Also employing intermittent fasting. Not that I think that it actually does anything, but it's a hell of a lot easier for me to avoid over eating if I'm consciously not eating. 20/4 pattern, and I'll bump it down to 18/6 and then 16/8 once the fat starts coming off.
 
not a negative comment, just a health concern. Goodluck with your cycle, hope you get the results you want.
 
Got the aromasin in a couple of days ago. On 25mg/day to get my levels down and then going to 15/day. Feeling better, weight is going down.
 
Quad pip is 3/10 not very bad at all. After much paranoia, went and picked up my 4 extra vials from post office. So 16 weeks is good to go. Feeing good, and strong. Very aggressive almost to the point of it being a bad thing.
 
After the last 2 pins, for about 2 days, I'm super aggressive and I get constant NRB's, but then it stops until next pin. I think I'm going to start pinning Sunday's and Thursday's instead of every Tuesday to keep my levels even.
 
Leg day today. The pumps are so extreme that it's almost hard to continue. Set 3 not even heavy and I'm feeling tight everywhere. I guess I'll have to get used to that.
 
A set later and I can't even achieve full range of motion. Never had a pump like this. It feels like the end of my normal workout
 
I've been having very painful pumps in my ankles. Specifically the lateral sides of my ankles hurt like a mofo after not even half a mile of walking. I walked .3 miles yesterday and I almost didn't make it. Today, I walked about 1 minute to the food court in my local mall and had to sit down. I bought some taurine because apparently that helps.

Fun fact: I mixed up my Viagra and my aromasin for two day because they look almost identical because the same guy makes them and they're almost the same color with a G stamped on them. I was walking around looking like a pitched tent for two days and I thought it was just the test kicking in. Anyways, I sorted them out separately and I'm back to normal. Funny mistake, though.
 
My pumps in the gym are off the charts but unfortunately that's continuing out of the gym. My back was pumped for a whole day after the last leg day. Also, I'm much more sore for much longer after work outs now. Not sure why that is.
 
I've been enjoying this log. Its nice to hear an actual re-life account of somebody going pedal to the metal.
 
I hit chest earlier today and I was hitting 395 on bench for sets of 8, which is nuts because my one rep max (before cycle) is 445. I have a feeling that I could have pumped out 3-5 reps of the 445 now. It'd be reeeaaaallllyyy sweet if I could hit 500 in the next few months. That's a gigantic dream, since it took me almost a decade to get to this weight, but still. Strength is definitely up. I'm in my 4th week now. I had to stop taking the dbol because the water retention that it was causing was concerning me. I still have around 50 tabs. I'll just save them. I'm still running the epistane at the end of May at 40mg for however long it lasts.

Pumps are down with taurine. My ankles are still bothering me though.

The PIP on my last pin in my left quad was AWFUL. It was freezing in my room where I keep my stuff and I didn't even think to warm up the oil. I felt good the rest of the day but I limped the day after and yesterday. I'm definitely going to remember to warm it up now.

I feel like I'm gaining fat.... Not really sure why, since my macros and calories are well below what should be my maintenance... I'm afraid to cut more calories. It doesn't make sense to even bother with gear if I'm eating 1500 calories a day. I'll just up my cardio frequency and hope for the best.
 
Tonight is back day. Going to throw in some shoulders as well. I'll update on how the workout feels and my strength and what not. I'm getting a little more serious with this cut by cutting my carbs more and increasing cardio. Might get some T3 and use it with my Clen at some point. I'm experimenting to see what works best for me. I might hire a coach when money allows as well, as I think it'd help me to have someone to be accountable to.
 
OH YEAH also my shoulders, specifically lateral and posterior delts are really blowing up. They've always been a weak point of mine, alongside my arms. So it's cool that they're getting bigger. I've always had really big anterior delts to match my chest though so I hope I'll look more even after this.
 
My last pin brought the worst pip so far. I'm doing my fifth today and praying that it doesn't happen again. Going to heat the oil and do it after a shower.

The PIP wasn't even where I injected... I injected upper left lateral quad and the pain was in my teardrop and around my knee... Weird
 
Looking in the mirror today, I have gained some serious size. Been doing some irresponsible stuff and eating things I shouldn't lately... Need to stay on track
 
Hey just checking in. I've been waiting too long in between pins because of work, and my gym frequency could have been better the last two weeks. But it's back to normal now, and I'm trucking on. My lifts are all going up. I'm getting comments from friends asking if I started juicing because of the size and strength that I've put on.


For me, roid rage seems to be real. I don't know exactly how the chemistry of test E works, but I'm always VERY aggressive the night of and 2 days after pinning, almost exactly in line with how my blood levels spiking would be. During these times, I feel kind of an overwhelming alpha male feeling. Like if anyone were to mess with me, I'd have no choice but to make sure they knew that I was not one to be messed with. The aggression is almost too much to deal with. I haven't felt overly emotional like I've heard other people describe, though. The aggression is very good in the gym. I've never pushed myself harder in anything, ever. I've now hit PR's in both bench press and deadlift. In every area of my life it seems like I'm dominating. I always thought that gear was just something that you'd take and not have to worry about except for pinning and the gym, but I now see that it affects you physically and psychologically. I enjoy the aggression though. For the first time in a while I feel like the wolf and not the rabbit, and I think that's what makes this stuff "addicting".
