Pondering my blast for meet.
12 weeks
1-12 375mg Test Cyp E3D (750ish/wk)
1-12 50mg Proviron ED
1-12 20mg Halo on Peak days only so once a week. 20,10,10 before each lift meet day
5-6 40mg Var ED
6-12 60mg Var ED

This would be my biggest blast to date. Highest I have run test is 600mg so curious on how I handle it. Var is a bit on the bigger side for me as well and 7 weeks on it. The only thing I am really pondering is the test dose.

Don’t you have a weight class to stay in, lol

Yeah 220 lol, we will see but that is another thing to consider

I’m not sure how you respond to test but I don’t react well to that much honestly. I would probably put on a lot of weight as well. Certainly be stronger but at a cost.

Yeah thats my concern have gone as high as 600. Guess see what my is when I start and if I don't have a bunch of wiggle room keep it at 500.

Could always drop to a TRT dose about a month or so out and add tren ace to compensate if water weight from test becomes an issue for making weight.

Yeah another idea, just got my latest order today so gear is all here now. Could look at that for sure

Have you done anything like this? I wonder about this. one of my “teammates “ was doing test and tren and got a bit too heavy. Had to cut 15 lbs going into the meet. He performed really well though. Could have been an option

I've added tren the last month leading into a meet, never dropped test though. I've only tried to make weight once. I usually cut down and then bulk into meets.

After my kayak trip I expect to drop weight. See where I am at and plan from that I suppose. Definitely like drop then bulk to meet, next couple weeks should know how I am going to do it.

 

[Worf]

It’s typically what I do. Tried a super slow cut into a meet and it was a mess. I need extra calories for the harder training. I can’t manage much meaningful intensity in a deficit.

Looking like this week will be a bit of a write off.

Think I will be able to get 2 SBD deload days in and 1 mobility day as well. Next week gone for a week so no lifting.

 

[Btcowboy]

So too busy last week to lift, and leaving today for week long Sea Kayak trip. Hopefully back home Saturday night but currents and weather could delay that. Intent to be home Sat and back to lofting on Sunday. Was feeling very fat last couple weeks and not eating perfect but in last month only gained 2lbs so sitting about 217. Will probably drop a bit this week.

See ya all in a week

 

[Btcowboy]

Got back last night, sun burnt and pretty beat up. 40 plus miles of paddling, some cuts, some bruises and a stiff and sore back lol. Dehydrated and hungry cant wait to see if I lost weight, stayed same or gained. Pretty cool trip last part was pretty constant Humpback Whales and dealing with wicked currents.

Time to get back at it, arches of my feet cut up from rocks, neck sunburn going to make squats interesting, and expecting Temps of 106 today and tomorrow lol

It was work lol but a good time non the less. No phone, no pager and I needed it. I think the plan for this week gonna be 3 days of SBD and then back at off season next Sunday. Prep for my meet starts around Sept 12

 

[Worf]

106* in F ? Is that a thing up there? It ain’t even that hot here
