Nice work Rick sounds like these gains are gonna stick! Definitely thinking epi is gonna be my next run.
Hey Rick, I was wondering where you first got your idea to lift 4x a week cardio 3x a week. Upping and lowering cals between the days for build days or burn days. I'd like to do some reading on this if you know of any good articles? Thanks.
Btw awesome job with cycle and pct so far man, keep it up! :thumbsup:
Yeh I'm going to have bloods done sometime this winter to see where I'm at. I'm just not sure exactly when yet.Sounds great. I would be curious to see some bloods one your pct is completed to see how much you recover.
PCT DAY 15
Thank you to everyone for the compliments and support through everything. Its been a little hard to update lately due to the holidays and everything, but I've still managed to get in 3 good workouts this week. I haven't done any cardio since last week, but that will all change going into the new year..
This is the longest I've went into a PCT with no loss of size or strength, so i would say that this PCT is going as well as planned. My weight has dropped back a tad, but I also look leaner and my measurements are all as they were on cycle. Last weigh-in I was around 173-174. Strength on everything is maintaining, and some lifts are going up still! Oh....and I did manage to get a recheck on bodyfat, and it looks like I stayed a little leaner than I thought. Best I can tell I am around 9%, or maybe just a tad over. This is the best PCT I've had to date, so I may just carbon copy this exact layout for future cycles! :sgrin:
I really think the Ostarine has a lot to do with keeping the strength and mass. I experimented with a lower dose (6 mg) during my last PCT, to see if I could recover quicker, just in case Ostarine might suppress it somewhat. But, it was not as good as this one. I really think 12mg is where its at in PCT. During my recomp I will be running 25mg most of the time more than likely.
The plan is to rest up the rest of the weekend through the new year, and get back to killing it Monday morning!
I hope you all have a great New Year!:cheers:
Same to ya bro! Have a great one! My diet will once again be off track today and at least part of tomorrow with the new year holiday. Monday I am getting back to business however and back on track with the diet. I'm also going to get back on the cardio too. I'm considering going back to 3 build days and 4 burn days to put me more towards recomp. I was planning on doing that anyways at the end of PCT. I may just go ahead and keep maintaining until then, I'm just anxious to get my body composition back to where I want it. I would really like to be sitting at 170 with 6% bodyfat by the time tshirt weather hits!Awesome review so far bro. Happy and safe New Years to you!
A little early to be hitting the good stuff don't ya think? If I did that I'd be passed out well before midnight. I'm starting off with Miller lite before I hit the "good stuff"I plan on kicking the hell out of mine starting this comming week. I'll be doing a PP log stack then hitting up some dark side stuff!! My 1800 teq is calling so Halla back later!
My complete PCT is...Nice man just read over the past two weeks of pct 12 mg seems to be working great for you. I shall try this in my next pct with nolva and do anabeta post pct I like that plan. Besides osta and nolva are you using anything else in pct?
Sounds like you need a new gym!! My gym was open even on new year's!PCT DAY 18
I was all set to hit the gym today, and found out they was closed....so today becomes an unintentional rest day. I will probably just eat close to maintenance today since I have cardio/burn day tomorrow and then it will be lifting Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday :sgrin:
That's a cool thing about 24 hour fitness that I use.Sounds like you need a new gym!! My gym was open even on new year's!
wow, yea can't beat that man. It literally "pays" to work out for you lolWell my gym is free through work....and even better is that you accumulate points for every visit that comes out to a dollar per visit. So....about every six months I get a gift certificate for a sporting goods store of my choice! They basically buy all my workout clothes, shoes, gym bags, etc....all of it Nike, under armour, Adidas, etc...![]()

what cycle did you run?ive been on 20mg of osta since i went into pct, i lost my 6lb of water within the 1st wk of pct and have not lost 1 lb since. no strength loss, no BF gain, fuk ya!
this stuff will be in every pct of mine here on out.
Hahaha...yeh guys the perks are nice through my job
PCT DAY 20
instead of me copying everything from my post again, details of today's workout can be found here, as I just started a log of the new oxygen4energy product from Mr supps.
http://anabolicminds.com/forum/supplement-reviews-logs/190270-rickrock-energizes-his.html
Basically more PRs! Recovery is going incredible, and strength is through the roof right now. Getting ready to hit my last week of PCT and stronger than on cycle while hitting PRs...I will take that!!
d plex 1-5 @ 75mgwhat cycle did you run?
good stuff. deff gona try this ostarine in next pct. Im assuming you had the "capsule" form since your dosing exactly 20 mg?d plex 1-5 @ 75mg
X tren 3-6 @112mg
katandrol 5-7 @ 350mg
transderm 1-6 @ 7 pumps ED
T3 1-6
albuterol 1-9 (yes in pct too, but 1/3 the ON cycle dose)
good stuff. Is the reason it is sold so often in liquid suspension because that is how research chemicals are sold? I seem to find most research chems are sold this way Idk why they cant just sell them as pure powders?no, liquid. I guess its not 20mg exact. maybe 19 or 21, but osta doesnt need to 110% correct. i take 2 doses a day also. 15mg with lunch and 5mg pre WO. I workout at 6pm. ik it has a 24hr halflife
I hear ya bro. Me too!! Ostarine is a must in all of my PCTs from now on! This PCT has been just as good as being on!ive been on 20mg of osta since i went into pct, i lost my 6lb of water within the 1st wk of pct and have not lost 1 lb since. no strength loss, no BF gain, fuk ya!

Yeh its pretty much that way so it can be classified as a "research chemical" Mice don't take tablets too wellgood stuff.

GUYS HES FINALLY READY FOR THE DARK SIDE
hes not a little boy any more
Man... haha.. Maybe my rat will be enjoying some of this during his next PCT :XI hear ya bro. Me too!! Ostarine is a must in all of my PCTs from now on! This PCT has been just as good as being on!
Ha-ha hell yeh bro.....soon....like next cycle soon probably :sgrin:
I want to see what test is like :sgrin:
If only we could all pin. Wife wont let me until its prescribed. But when it is she said she will gladly inject me (she's a nurse)test e 1-12 @ 500
epi 45/45/45/45/60
call it a day. the e needs some time to work, it will be there but almost undercover for a bit. the epi lethargy will never happen cuz your body doesnt need to produce test. than all the new gains, BF losses solidify during the remaining 5-6 wks.
if half these guys who took ph's would try the pin CEL, mr supp, IBE, iron mag labs, etc etc would neve exist. they wouldnt have a customer base.
My wife is my only hangup at the moment, but I nearly have her convinced. Its just the legality she has an issue with now, but I see her coming around by summer :fingersx:If only we could all pin. Wife wont let me until its prescribed. But when it is she said she will gladly inject me (she's a nurse)
Very good to hear man, that extra weight you were carrying probably wasn't doing you any good anyway from the sound. PR's in pct that is crazy!My wife is my only hangup at the moment, but I nearly have her convinced. Its just the legality she has an issue with now, but I see her coming around by summer :fingersx:
PCT DAY 21
End of week 3 in PCT, and things are going great. I look pretty good at this point in PCT, and better than on cycle IMO. My weight has come down a bit more, but my measurements and strength are all still there. Even hit some nice PRs yesterday. I was at 172 this morning. My body composition looks improved and i really think the Ostarine is helping lean me out without a diet change.
I will take pics at the end of PCT in a week, and let you guys see what you think, but I am very happy with appearance and i may be close to 9% bodyfat now![]()
Yeh man...so far any weight I've lost has been weight you would want to lose...either in the form of water or fatVery good to hear man, that extra weight you were carrying probably wasn't doing you any good anyway from the sound. PR's in pct that is crazy!
You killing in pct too?!PCT DAY 22
Things are continuing to get even better as I enter this final week of PCT and I think at the rate my body composition is changing, I could be looking pretty decent at the end of PCT.
My vascularity was off the chain this morning, and ab definition seemed improved. Leaning effects are apparent and weight is holding now around 173. Strength is still climbing in some exercises also. Squats were a breeze today, and 225 seemed light as hell. I hit a PR of 275x8 and i through up 80 lb DBs on shoulder presses like they were nothing. Can't complain at all here guys. Ostarine anyone?!
you better! I wana see how it works for you to see if I should by it there lolYou killing in pct too?!
Ostarine is gonna have to come in my pct as well... Lol
Keep on making those gains!
