All I want to know is how many livers do you keep in the freezer. Well, how many? :jester:

bigtime! just 1 cap a day of SD and i know my gains would pick up again. And if i actually cycled SD again I would probably break past 240 and be stronger than ever.
Anyway the plan is Halodrol 75/100/125/150/150/150 and if that doesnt cut it then i'm going to pulse 20mg of SD on workout days on top of that. I have to have enough anabolic power to pump lots of T3 and cardio.
I want to drop like 4% BF during that 6 week period without losing more than 10 pounds so that's teh goal.
well there's tradeoffs, i don't think i get as much from most steroids as most people do... however i generally have a much greater tolerance for them, including my liver's tolerance. I know from my bloodwork that my liver can handle more than average, and most people are pretty conservative in their estimate of what an average liver can handle

Unreal, during your cut will you be eating at maintenance or slightly above?
UnrealMachine
Well-known member
Slightly above. Between T3, the gym, and the additional exercise i'm getting each day, i'll achieve enough fatloss.
My maintenance at 220 pounds was ~3000 calories so it can't be much higher now. I'm planning on eating around 3500.
Last couple weeks i was just shy of 4000. I'm starting to lower it already.
ah yeah i think its well known now that i am semi addicted to Superdrol and if i could i would run it for the rest of my life.
Me too, it would be just over 220 pounds and like 7% bodyfat, that's my goal, same as last year but 8 pounds heavier. Dunno if i can really do it. But see it doesn't matter, i'll try as hard as I can and that's what matters.
Big question is: will halodrol deliver for me? I am expecting nothing but hardness/vascularity even from >100mg dosing so if that doesn't cause any actual gains then you see it wouldn't stop the T3 from eating down my bodyweight... So in that case scenario i'd have to throw in SD in a pulse to try to salvage that portion of the cycle. And in that case I will probably not make my goal. So it is my hope that high doses of halodrol will have SOME kind of muscle building effect
I do not actually need to build muscle to accomplish this though.
232 pounds @ 11% bodyfat = 206.5 lbs of LBM
222 pounds @ 7% bodyfat = 206.5 lbs of LBM
Essentially all I need to do is drop 10 pounds of pure fat in 6 weeks and have 100% muscle retention. But T3 is catabolic so I need some actual anabolic power. Not just testosterone cuz this stuff is weaksauce.

Ever try chalk instead of straps for grip problem on the rows? I think that'd help big time. I've always hated straps. They always **** up my grip.

I'm sure you can do it UM. I would just be speechless and :box: if you did though because that is quite the feat.
Were you using test and halodrol last year as your muscle preservative for the cut?

i was using test stacked with PH Tren and then my tren gyno was so bad i dropped it and ran SD stacked with PP for the last couple weeks. All while on T3.

Gym chalk is cheap as ****. like 8 bucks gets you 4-5 bricks that will last you years. The first time I used chalk my deadlift went up 20lbs and it still allows for your natural grip strength form (as i feel straps take away from natural grip strength).
You can get powdered chalk or liquid chalk.

yeah darkhalf chalk is the way to go.. cheap. i never use straps for deads.. only use straps for shrugs and sometimes bb rows. 1 brick of chalk has lasted me about a year now

my old gym was geared for old people and wasnt really a place you wanna deadlift (manager whos office was under the weight room used to come upstairs bitching after i did a set of deads)
anyway, these morons who helped with the local college baseball team had the bright idea one day they would use chalk during their workout (none of them do deads or bent rows either) they used a rossin bag and they had the s*** all over everything, the floor, the equipment.. manger was pissed

day 60
232 lbs
shoulders
plate-loaded iso shoulder press: 180*15, 230*8, 270*5, 180*18 (2 plates per side so easy, 3 per side is SO hard)
plate-loaded shrug machine: 12 plates*30*3 (6 plates per side kept it simple)
upright rows: 135*10, 145*10 (tried 155 went pretty poorly, bicep pump? made it difficult)
db lateral raises (1 arm at a time): 50*20, then 2 arms at a time 40*14 sooo dead
db front raises (1 arm at a time): 50*16
db rear raises: 35*22
Calve machine: double dropset, burned like a mofo
hmmm mediocre workout... see that volume was very low? I was feeling like crap at the end of my workout. Don't know why. Just wasn't feeling it very much. Whatever. The #s aren't bad but i couldn't do more sets than that at the end.

Nice # on the shoulders, I also have been getting up there on that seated hammer strenght shoulder press, and noticed the same thing. Plate and a quarter per side 20reps, 2plates pre side 15, 2plates and a quarter 8, and 3 plates pre side just made me laugh could only get 2. But then again thoses are huge jumps up in weights.
So you starting to notice sum lethargy or what?
UnrealMachine
Well-known member
no lethargy i've never gotten that. but a few sets killed me then i had trouble catching my breath and i was sweating like a mofo, then my stomach felt like **** and then i felt like i didn't have much energy left.
i guess that's one reason i've always preferred low volume, low rep training is whenever i work my ass off on higher reps sets, my stomach starts going to **** and i need to take breaks or else i'll throw up. I've thrown up a lot when lifting too hard. And sometimes I can come back from it and keep lifting... but usually it's game over. So i try to avoid that, lol... Today doing 20 reps per arm with the lateral raises with the 50 pound dumbell killed me completely.

Why don't you hit up some more SD/PP for the end if you were satisfied with the results for the cut last year. Why change what works? Your bloods give approval for some more SD/PP lol.
Anyways you can always salvage the cut if halodrol doesn't cut it as a muscle preserver. I'm sure you'll be watching physique changes closely enough to notice muscle loss and re-arrange the cycle.
UnrealMachine
Well-known member
yeah CM i'll pump whatever roids I need to in order to make it work. But i'd rather not rely on SD for absolutely everything. my bloodwork didn't include a lipid panel and the more SD i use the more my lipids are getting ****ed. I already use SD literally EVERY cycle and the transition into twice a cycle is quite a lot!
I'm hoping the halodrol will suffice, at those doses it would suffice for 90% of people. But if it doesn't i've got enough SD and PP and T3 to do whatever it takes to bring about GREAT SUCCESS.

Yeah that throwing up has to do with being hyper, or hypo, i think its hyper that makes you puke, either way its not a good thing, and like you i like a slower paced training. I hate getting all huffy puffy when werking out.
UnrealMachine
Well-known member
hyper, hypo, what, no. This has nothing to do with sugar levels, its simple, when i work out too hard, my stomach gets nauseous, if i keep going, i'll throw up. Thankfully i have avoided that all summer, but sometimes a few intense sets will bring me close to that point, so I have to slow down a lot, hence slowing down and feeling crappy towards the end.
idk if you've never thrown up from lifting. when i'm lifting and pushing those #s out i'm giving 100%, not 100% of what I want to do, 100% of what i am capable of doing
that explains why i get out of breath and sweat up a storm. that's why my volume is low.. my intensity is high. I get in, kill it, and get out.

hyponatremia will make you nauseated but i doubt you lose that much water/salt during a workout.
sometimes you just have off days bro... and you still killed it IMO

well my apologies to lyfespan i had never heard of hypo/hyper natremia i thought he was referring to glycemic. But ah yeah, don't think lack of sodium is what's going on either lol.
bezoe
Well-known member
he might have meant glycemic... but if you were that, youd probably be on the floor, not nauseous lol. I was just stating that a primary symptom of hyponatremia is nausea
i get the same way with high reps.. i did 15 on leg press today and its very taxing. After you get past the atp/creatine phosphate phase of energy expediture, which is like 15-20 seconds i believe, its more of an endurance task

no apology needed i wuz refering to being mildly hyperglycemic, I get cold sweats hot flashes and then puke and all is better.
Usually happens if i train legs or back with waxy maize, so i wuz under the impression that i might have taken in to many simple carbs and wuz havin an insulin spike? or a crash?

day 61
232 lbs
my favorite day: arms
standing dumbell curls: 70*6, 75*6, 80*6, 85*6 (yes i swing on the last set)
close grip bench (smith): 245*10, 265*10, 285*8
standing ez bar curls: 145*10, 155*10
UN-weighted dips: bw*40, bw*33, bw*33
dumbell preacher curls: 50*7, 45*8, 40*10
happy enough with my workout
i love my arms. i see big guys and for some reason they are curling like half as much as me, it's weird, they look at me like LOL WAT?
Like i said there's a bit of swing in my curls that's true. But every rep of dumbell curls, the db touches my shoulder. Every rep on BB curls, i touch the BB to my chin. I get a good range of motion.

Man **** you on thoses db curls, jesus I got sum werk to do. Im curently repping 50's for 8 no swing, and that kills me.
But now I got a problem seems sumthin in my right arm got Fed up bad, feels like the deltoid tuberosity took a beating. Whats weird is that its not so much the muscle that hurts, but seems more like the bone. It starts about mid way and raidates down to the trochlea and medial epicondyle. Or whatever all i know its annoying as hell.

I guess so.
I've tried throwing in an arms day but it takes away from training my chest and back as frequently as I'd like. I can do chest and back 2x a week but when I throw in an arms day I do back and chest 1x a week.
I only do arm days when I'm feeling shallow and vein and want to pump up the guns and look at them.
Unreal is the only person I know who kills it in the gym, has a nice physique, and has an "arms" day lol. I usually laugh when someone has an "arms" day.

Lyfespan, arms are trained on every back or chest exercise one can do. Aren't your biceps soar the day after you work out your back? Considering you work out your back hard enough they will be.
Please don't tell me that is your workout schedule? You will see some slow progress working out in such a slow pace like that.

back day gets my back sore, chest day gets my chest sore. Neither get my arms sore in any way.
Arm day just barely has been getting my arms sore and that's only recently because i've been going so heavy. And it's my biceps much more than my triceps.
usually arms day doesn't even get me sore. much harder to get my arms sore than everything else.

Ya with the decrease in pressing I do for chest and shoulders my triceps deserve their own day. Biceps get hit a little during back but not enough to effect the workout days later.
