It’s been a lot of work, but I’m glad my lifts are starting to really go up. Got my mid cycle blood test done, just waiting for results.

No major side effects still and mental health and clarity has gone up. I was more likely to “roid rage” before test, after it, I’m in much more control and level headed.

I believe I’ve found balance with my AI, we will see within the next few days. Also, enjoying Anavar and fully taking advantage of it. Started a small cut around 2500-3000 calories a day to lean down from 208. The Anavar has kept my strength up during the cut and am thoroughly impressed with it. Random back pumps aren’t the greatest, but manageable.

Went at legs a little different today. They are getting stronger but not larger. Today’s lift caused a nice pump that started after cycling. I might start with that from now on.

Start repping that four plate bench. You’re hitting the 245 so you should hit the 225 for some reps above one now.

Starting to get more stamina at the higher weight on bench. I’m having one hell of a growth period. Last weighed in was at 211 Friday morning.

Training for mass or?

Training for mass or?

In that picture I was 205 fresh out of bed at the end of week 7. That’s when all my lifts started to shoot back up and size filled out. I’m about at my old genetic ceiling of 215 with lifts to match. And by that I mean, I still look natural and feel very anabolic.

I’m focusing mainly on mass and expanding on my base while staying around 12%. My goal weight is about 215 at 10% by the end of cycle. I’ll be finishing with higher reps and concentrated exercises, then back to strength training when the cycle is over.

I log my diet as well, it’s just a lot to post everything.

 

[StillMind]

Took the opportunity to do a cut while taking a much needed break. Weighed back in today at 207.5 lb. I’m pretty happy with my results so far.

Its his first cycle man

 

[Worf]

Really good progress, your bench and squat is wayyy up from base line. Thats how it should be. only thing I see you doing wrong is diet inconsistency. Seems like you cant decide if your bulking or cutting. I recommend Small adjustments and a few weeks to see how it works before tweaking again. Youre not gona be able to do everything your first go around.

Thanks man, It’s been a lot of hard work. With my diet, I do mini cuts when my body fat gets a little too high but overall it’s all been bulk. I’ll have a little bit of weight to cut off when I come off.

When finishing a cycle or blast, is it best to finish out working on strength or pump/size?
