Cycle Log - Fat Bitch Edition

I skipped sunday Legs as I was traveling all day to get back from my trip and I was the one driving so my knees felt terrible by the end of the drive.

I'm going in to do chest tonight after work and get back on a normal routine until the weddings start up in a couple of weeks when my shit is going to be all fucked up again. I plan on hitting the test suspension up at 100mg today along with my 1mg oral tren which I'm still running.

I did my normal pin this morning, still at 300/100/100 test/npp/tren at least for another 2 weeks as i start figuring out what the second half of this cycle is going to look like. I plan to be on cycle until around the first week of august at this point before i go back on my cruise for a few weeks before my TRT doc appointment.

We'll see what happens, like I said i'll be updating about chest tonight and start giving my thorough logs once again. Sorry about that guys. But life got in the way of my cycle log, lol.
 
Oh I forgot, i think I had my first experience with the dreaded "tren cough" this morning.

I did my normal monday morning pin, and as soon about half way through my chest started getting tight. after i pulled the pin out and applied my alcohol swab and some pressure. i gave out two or 3 small coughs. my chest continued getting tighter to the point where is was really hard to breathe for about 30 to 45 seconds. I then broke out into a cold sweat as my chest was still very tight. next, i almost shat myself, i felt a shit coming, went stumbled into the bathroom and took an explosive wet shit. i sat on the bowl for about 3 or 4 minutes, wiped, got in the shower, and got dressed for work. by the time i was dressed i felt a lot better, but i still had some tightness. even now, about 4 hours later i still feel a little something in my chest, but i'm feeling just about normal.

i guess that is one of the few things people haven't gotten all hyperbolic about. it took me about 20+ pins to feel it, but it's pretty real and it sucks.
 
Lol Got 'em! You just made me relive that shit. Honestly though, since I slowed down my injections, I never had anymore trouble with it (knock on wood). Sounds like it's not really an issue for you though, just had a bad pin and got that vein

Yeah i knew it was a bad spot as soon as teh needle went it, i got a pretty sharp twinge of pain, but i just powered through and it didn't feel too bad once i got into the muscle. i put the needle in very slowly and pull it over slowly every pin so make sure i don't knick anything on the way in or out and that i'm in the right area. it was dark as shit in my room today and my girlfriend wasn't happy about me trying to turn the lights on, so that was my fault more than anything else. i could have easily gone to the bathroom to pin but i was exhausted and just wanted to get it over with.... oh well, you live and you learn.
 
Got chest in today. I tried to hit up my 100mg of Suspension as a PWO, but got so frustrated with it clogging i just tossed the full syringe in my sharps box. I really hate how often it fucking clogs. at least 2 or 3 times every injection. I decided to take a 2 week run of 50mg ed of winny as i had some laying around, so i used that and 1mg of oral tren as a PWO. I upped my liver support as well so we'll see how i feel tomorrow. I know I'm playing with fire, but whatever, i'm curious to see how i can handle it.

I was in a little bit of a rush unfortunately as I had my friend and my girlfriend with me at the gym and my girlfriend got a call that made us have to hurry up the routine. I skipped Incline BB press because of it but I was happy with my workout. Got a great pump, and my chest and front delts were on fire at the end. Hitting up Back tomorrow and we'll see how that goes. Looking to get a nice long session in as I'll be going by myself and have no plans at all at night for once.

I felt really good about my workout today. I through in about 20 minutes of core work at the end, which I've been slacking on so I tried to do as much core as I could until I couldn't breathe properly and i accomplished that goal. I had been really slacking on the core work and I think my compounds lifts started to suffer because of it, so no more of that bullshit.

A weird thing I noticed. Weighed myself today, i'm at 266, which sucks because i've gained some weight, but the pants i bought for my friends wedding are now looser on me. so maybe it's good weight? I have no idea how, but i'm not complaining. I feel like i'm holding some more water on my stomach because of the last 2 weekends of eating like shit on these stupid trips I've had to go on, but whatever. I have 4 weddings in the next 5 weekends and i'm a groomsman in 3 of them, so I'm sure the trend of eating like shit on weekends is going to continue unfortunately.

Oh, I also dropped the oral tren. yesterday was my last time with it. the combination of 1mg of oral tren and 50mg of winny finally put me over the liver lethargy edge. I was passing out all day at work today. I'm going to stick with the 50mg of winny for a quick 2 week run then take some time off of orals, maybe until september. If i do run another oral, i have a backstock of anadrol i've been saving, but i'd rather use that on my next cycle in september after my august trt doc cruise.

pinning tomorrow as usual. and hitting up legs at night.
 
Pinned this morning, no issues. Felt great since dropping the oral tren last night and sticking with the winny only. Lethargy in the middle of the day was completely gone and i felt back to normal.

I've also adjust my dose of t3. I lowered it from 100mcg to 50mcg ed. it's made a huge difference in my sweating, that's the only thing i've noticed so far.

Had to stay at work super late for today for meetings. I got a promotion recently that hasn't kicked in yet so I have to attend all these extra meetings and figure out what my role is going to be as they created this position for me and there really isn't anybody i can look to for advice. Hit legs though tonight:

I kind of have to run through the workout and didn't get to do as much work as I wanted to do. I missed out on seated calf raises and 3 or 4 sets of hack squat that i wanted to do, but i'm still happy with my workout. The deal with leg day for me is if I can walk down the stairs properly i didn't work hard enough. Today was a day where i had to hold the railing and take a break after each step down, so that's what counts. The pump I had in my quads during the drop sets of extensions was unreal. I always like doing leg day on a day I pinned my quads as it really prevents any pip and gets the oil to absorb quicker. At least that's what it feels like to me, who knows if that's actually true.

Hitting up shoulders tomorrow with my girlfriend and then we're doing a full 40 minute core workout right after. So it's going to be a long ass session tomorrow night, but i'm looking forward to it. She's been bugging me to do her core program with her because she's been doing most of my lifting program, so i finally agreed to do it. I need it anyway and i think it will be helpful in continuing to shed some fat.

Oh, on a side not, i weighed myself again today, and i was back down to 260.... I have no fucking clue how i lost 6 pounds in one night. It makes absolutely not sense. I'm thinking that I had sweat so much on yesterday during my workout that when I weighed myself it had made my clothes heavier? I don't know what else to attribute it too. I always weigh myself at night after my workout, so it's always under the same conditions pretty much.

Anyway, looking forward to the end of the week finally and getting through these last 2 days of work and relaxing this weekend and watching the Mayweather fight. I'll update again tomorrow.
 
Got shoulders in last night. I was exhausted and preferred a lot of rough sex to making a log update, so i apologize for the late post. I noticed something the last week, maybe the Tren needed time, but I'm for sure more irritable and definitely have been more aggressive, in all areas. Nothing has changed with my protocol at all, so the only thing I can think of is that the Tren is finally catching up to me? It's been close to 8 weeks now, so I have no idea when it would have taken this long, but it's pretty clear to me now. I'm running low on stock and I have a huge shitshow going on with the new order I made so I have no idea if I'll even have enough test to continue my cycle, let alone tren and npp. Hopefully it gets sorted it out soon as I really dont' have enough of any of the 3 compounds to continue a blast level of doses for more than another few pins at the max.

As promised I did about 32 minutes of core work with my girlfriend after this and it was pretty brutal. It was actually pretty impressive and I have a lot of respect for her to be able to keep up with my pace lifting weights and have the energy to do all that core stuff. She kicked my ass pretty bad and pushed me pretty hard, but I appreciated it. I needed a good core routine to build off of. I'm not as weak in the core as I thought, I just don't have the endurance yet, which I'm going to work on for sure.

Anyway, doing Arms tonight, pinned this morning as usual. I'll check back in later.
 
Hit arms and another miserably tiring core session. pinned this morning, for some reason the pip is pretty bad today and it's really sore. oh well. I'm in a rush to get out to dinner, so i'll keep it short.

Crazy busy with work, I'll run through my last 3 workouts real quick then give a more comprehensive cycle update.

Wasn't able to do any core today as i was in a rush to get out of the gym.
 
So all in all I'm pretty happy with my cycle so far. A couple of things I'm noticing.

Today was the first day I actually felt some aching in my joints. So the 50mg of winny is hopefully doing it's thing. I feel like I"m holding less water and I feel marginally stronger, but other than that I don't feel very much.

The last two vials of Test E that I've used on this cycle (same source, same batch, had no issue with the first 2 vials) have been giving me some pretty vicious pip. The thing that's weird about it is that it only starts happening when I'm about half way through the vial. Every pin, I'm dreading injecting the Test E now. I know my leg is going to be sore as shit and in a lot of pain for at least 3 or 4 days after. I have no idea why this happens half way through 2 consecutive vials and not with the entire vial, I can't figure it out. My sunday morning pin is only NPP and Tren and I do it in my delt, and I get little to no pip, so I'm about 99.9% sure the Test E is the reason for the intense pip. If anybody has any suggestions feel free to let me know.
 
Filtering is what I'd try, though it's odd that you aren't having trouble till halfway through the vial. It hasn't crashed at all, right?

Nope. Hasn't crashed. I really have no idea what the issue could be
 
Just thought id out this out there

Sounds like tiny amounts of bacteria are getting to ur vials

Squirt a little benzyl alcohol in that should clear it up. Like 1/2 an ml should ckear the whole vial

Plus i luv ur thread

Great job bro
 
Hit legs tonight. Felt pretty good. Had to stay at work late again for meetings and shit, so I didn't get to the gym until about 3 hours after my normal workout time. I'm exhausted right now and I have a ton of shit to do over the next few days until monday. Like I said, the month of May is going to be a disaster for me in terms of keeping up with the log and giving proper and thorough daily posts, but I'm trying my best.

I was in a rush, as seems to be the norm these days and I was honestly pretty dead tired half way through the hack squats. I had to leave to get back home to answer emails and set up a presentation for tomorrow. It's nice and very flattering that my bosses all think enough of me to give me this big promotion and all this extra responsibility, but the issue is I'm still doing the stuff that was a part of my old job too. I'm essentially doing the jobs of 4 people, when I'm supposed to be doing the job of one person. It's really killing me. I told them today that if this isnt sorted out by the end of the month that I'm going to have to look for employment elsewhere. I am beginning to get really run down at work and it's negatively effecting my personal life. I'm always tired, cranky, and frustrated. I'm sure my girlfriend isn't thrilled about it, but thankfully she hasn't brought it up yet. We'll see how it all turns out.

I pinned this morning. Surprisingly no pip at all yet. The only thing I tried different today was once I loaded the syringe, I held in my hand for a few minutes and blew on it to warm up the oil slightly. For some reason that seems to have worked. I'll know more tomorrow, but I guess the oil is kinda cold from sitting in my air conditioned room all day and night and just needed a little heat? Could that really be it?
 
Ive kept vials in the fridge before and pinned cold on advice from a medical professional that multi dose vials are supposed to b refrigerated to prevent future development of bacteria in the oil.

I would only get pip from test prop and sustanon 250. All other gear woukdnt give me pip even when shot cold....well slight discomfort maybe from the low temp but nothing lasting a minute or more

I would get swelling and redness from one legit brand that came in ampules from Mexico

All other products were smooth

But i have heard that when a substance has a high concentration of product...300mg per ml or higher its normal to get pip...and ive experienced slight pip from injecting 2ml or more in a single shot so i never put more than one ml per shot now. Means i hit more areas but i never get pip anymore unless its one day of discomfort no swelling or redness just discomfort from the one mexican brand that i know i can trust and is always there

I just think it's strange that I've been using the same source, same batch, the whole time and I had no pip up until vial 3. I only inject 1ml of test at a time, but it is 3 ml of oil total with the other compounds
