Kcal's Summer Rebirth

[Kcalorie]

Hey guys. I had a log going not too long ago but life happened and I had to cut it short, stopped working out and slacked on my diet. I have since normalized everything and quit that forsaken job and have a new one lined up for September. This gives me about 16 weeks of pure part-time work and full-time gym/diet.

Cycle
Test U - 125mg/wk Always...
Test E - 300mg/wk 1-16
EQ - 950mg/wk 1-16
Tbol - 50mg/d 1-6
Anavar - 40mg 10-16

GW-1516 10mg a day once it arrives
MT2 loaded then maintained. I won't lay out my protocol but PM me if you like.
Accessories such as nicotinic acid, cycle support, udca, tudca, Nizoral, rogaine

Stats (done fasted cold in the morning) 6/26/16
Weight: 189 carb depleted
BF: 12%~
Neck – 16
* Chest - 43.25
* Stomach at belly button - 34.5
* Waist line (where your pants sit when worn properly) – 33.5
* Biceps with arms extended out to side – L 12.75 R 12.5
* Thighs – 23
* Calves – 14.25
* Forearm 3 inches from elbow – 11.5

Goals: Add as much LBM as I can. Minimize fat gain. Id like to end up under 10% without going under 192. Lose 4 lbs of fat gain 6 lbs of muscle. I feel this is very attainable and will expect more lbs gained during cycle from water and glycogen.
Lose 1in or more on waist
Gain 1in on chest and arms. 2in on thighs and 1in calves.
Increase flexibility.

These are my goals. I will aim to exceed them.

Training
M - Chest/Bis/Forearms/Abs -> 1hr~ cycling + Plyo legs
T - Back/Tris/Calves -> TABATA rower
W - Shoulders/Forearms/Abs
Th - Legs/Calves -> 20m LISS stairmaster
F - Arms/Forearms/Abs -> TABATA field training
Sa - No weights -> 1hr+ cycling
Su - No weights -> 30-45m swimming.

Cardio varies but this is a general layout. Yoga 2x a week.
I do a "pump and stretch" before bed and upon waking. Simple band work. Waking will do muscle group worked yesterday, before bed is muscle worked that day.
Ex) Leg day, do 50~ BW squats to increase blood flow and stretch out a bit. Next morning do 30 lunges with twists to stretch the groin.

Diet
Carb cycle. Kcal/P/C/F
M - 3452/320/400/69
T - 3434/314/289/107
W -3461/325/205/143
Th - 3452/320/400/69
F - 3461/325/205/143
Sat- 3461/325/205/143
Sun- 3461/325/205/143

Will adjust as cycle progresses.

These are estimates. Actual numbers will vary slightly.

I will take pics Next Thursday at the end of week 1. I look emberassing right now due to water bloat, lack of stored glycogen, and some fat put on. If I took before pics now it wouldnt be realistic what the cycle did. Pics and measurements up next thursday

End of week 1. Definitely have some imbalances I need to correct... need to get right pec and right arm up to par with my left side.

Weight: 188.1 (-.9)
Neck: 16 (same)
Chest: 42.5 (-.75) must have measured differently the first time, I find it hard to believe I lost almost an inch off my chest. I measured in front of a mirror this time to get it lined up properly.
Stomach: 33.5 (-1)
Waist: 33 (-.5)
Bis: 12.9 L 12.7 R (+.15, +.2)
Thighs: L 23.1 R 23.1 ( +.1 ea)
Calves: 14.5 ea (+.25)
Forearms: L 11.5 R 11.5 (same)

Gotta say, I love modafinil. Its great for getting a bunch of work done in a day. Zeroed in focus. Combine it with a liter or two of green and black tea throughout the day then some kratom preworkout. Hell of a workout. The L-Theanine/Caffeine combo from the tea and the residual effects of the modafinil reaaaalllly combine well with kratom.
Although, I feel the kratom is sometimes a little much. Its great by itself for preworkout/work or socializing, and moda/tea/coffee is energizing enough on its own.

I don't use any orthodox preworkout supplements anymore. They give me bad BP so on cycle I tend to venture more with kratom and nootropics for preworkout. Or plain coffee.


Id highly recommend it, especially for cardio. Although be careful if you are using any other seizure theshold lowering medications. Kratom/Modafinil is one of the only reports of kratom sending people to the hospital. It was for induced seizures. I believe they were taking wellbutrin as well however which lowers the threshold.

Phenylpiracetam is also an excellent nootropic for preworkout. I only do it once a week or so. Fantastic focus and slight stimulation without raising heart rate so I can push it harder without getting out of breath.

Skin is definitely oilier. Back is getting some pimples, going to have to start tanning. Will start loading MT2 next weekend but first I'm going to get a base tan throughout this week.

Gym aggression is higher, nothing crazy. Definitely stronger pumps. I look more "tapered" in some shirts I have as well if I'm not bloated from broccoli lol.

Diet slipped a little today, will be back on track tomorrow. A little constipated so I think my e2 is low. Going to pin a tiny bit of prop to raise it. Funny thing, low e2 signs for me are almost non-existent besides for dehydration and constipation.

Fluids are about 1 gallon a day. Fiber 60g+ so thats not the issue.
Fluids are 2 L green tea, 1L BCAA drink w/ about 20-30g BCAA and 3 TBSP chia. 1L pure water

Chest day. Had a massive pump and intensity was high. Some strength gains. Cheers

End of Week 4 update.

Pumps are fantastic. Vascularity is there too. Started the GW about 3 days ago. Strength is really starting to climb. Each sessions I am beating each set I did the last week. Its brutal however. Keeping workouts short and intense. 45m weights 15-20m cardio.

New split: Legs+Shoulders/Back+Tris/Cardio/Legs+Traps/Chest+Bis/Off or cardio Repeat
First leg day is quad emphasis, second is hammys/glutes.

New diet: 4k kcal. 350p/400c rest fat. Dropping carbs to 200 on cardio/off days
Stats Cold, non flexed, fasted
Weight: 197 +8lbs
Neck: 16.25 +.25"
Chest: 42.5 ---same as week 1, strange because it definitely looks bigger. I think I mismeasured at the start.
Stomach: 34 -.5"
Waist: 33.5 same
Legs: 23.5 each +.5"
Arms extended to sides: L 13 +.25" R 12.8 +.3"
Calves: 14.5 each +.25"
Forearms: 11.75 +.25"


Happy with the progress so far. A week or so more of tbol and then I'm dropping it.

Really focusing on my flexibility now. Love deep squats for it. Hold for 60 some seconds 6x a times a day. Really loosens you up if you do it right. Check out reddit r/flexibility. Awesome.

Cheers
