The intent of this log is to document my journey so myself and others can learn from it, in the hopes I am provided with feedback, advice and constructive criticism, and of course as a reference to track progress. It will be more than just tracking one cycle, rather it will encapsulate all of my diet, training, blasts, cruises and everything in between.
Goals:
My goals for at least the next 2 years are to add lean mass while keeping bodyfat below 15% at all times, and to develop proportion which I am very much lacking. To bring up trouble areas, such as calves and hamstrings. I want to confidently walk on stage at a low level amateur competition at age 45 or sooner.
Stats:
41 years old
6’
194 lbs
10-12% bodyfat
Here are some recent pics as I enter year 3 of my journey. More about why I didn’t discover this obsession until age 39 in a later post.
The following thumbnail pics show where I was in February 2017, only a few months in after I got started.
Gear:
For the foreseeable future, I will be running 16 week blasts. They will be centered on NPP for weeks 1-8, tren weeks 9-16. In between I will be cruising on doctor prescribed cyp @ 200mg/week for 12 weeks to help myostatin return as close to baseline as possible. Blasts will look something like this:
400mg/wk test weeks 1-8
600mg/wk npp weeks 1-4
700mg/wk npp weeks 5-8
500mg/wk test weeks 9-16
525mg/wk tren weeks 9-12
700mg/wk tren weeks 13-16
Training:
Like many of you, I’ve become a huge fan of John Meadows. For the next few years I will be rotating his programs every 3 months or so. I’ll be starting next Monday with Carnage in an attempt to bring my legs up.
Diet:
This will be adjusted as I travel through different phases of blasts and cruises. I will go into great detail as goals are redefined and adjustments are made. I will say now I generally eat clean with very few cheat meals.
Bloodwork:
Generally I get bloods done 1-2x while cruising and every 4-6 weeks while blasting. All tests will be posted in this log.

Truthfully I foresee many topless pics due to my right pec being ruptured back in the mid 2000s and never had surgery. There will most certainly be times I call on you vets for assistance with this as my size increases.
