Hello my Meso friends. Welcome to my first cycle log on Meso. I actually started pinning almost two weeks ago but finally decided to put the cycle log together.
Stats:
31 y/o
5' 9.5"
Currently 191.6 lbs
About 16% bf
Background:
I am 31 years old and on TRT at 100 mgs Test Cyp per week. My TT levels prior to TRT put my natural levels at about 320. I was depressed, had no energy, and my libido was low. After a few weeks of TRT, my libido had increase. A couple more weeks later and my mood was much better. I might be on TRT for life but I feel much better now.
I have been lifting since a teenager on and off. I started training and competing in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu about five years ago. After a couple years of competing, my body was worn out and broken so I took some time off. Then I got back into lifting and have been in the gym since. The reason I got my Testosterone checked was because despite working hard naturally, I could never achieve good results in the gym (my program at the time sucked too looking back). I then got on TRT and a good program and have seen awesome changes to my physique. I have been having pain in my joints lately which is why I am adding Deca into this cycle. I have had gyno symptoms in the past and am using Walgreens Adex prescribed by doctor.
Cycle:
Week 1-3 Test Prop 75mg EOD (as a kickstart)

Pre-cycle bloods have been done and everything looks good. Will be doing bloods at end of Week 6 and adjust dosages as needed.
Goals:
I am looking to do a lean bulk and cut/recomp in this cycle. Beginning of cycle, I will be putting on some lean mass through mostly clean eating then reduce calories and cut down to a lower body fat by the end of cycle. I would like to end at about 190-195 lbs with about 12% bf. I hope this is all possible but will adjust goals as needed depending on how I think it's going.
Diet:
Not going to go into too much detail and break everything down but I will be eating around 3000 calories for the lean bulk portion of cycle then reduce them to about 2300 for the cut. Macros 40p/40c/20f.
Food list: Oatmeal, eggs, whey protein, protein bars, bananas, apples, melon, salad with chicken or ahi tuna, tuna fish, Ezekiel bread, black olives, avocado, grilled chicken, turkey, brown rice, shrimp, salmon, broccoli, sweet potato. These are my staples. I also do steak every once in a while.
Training:
Most work is done at 80% 1RM max and in 4-6 rep range but also change it up with higher rep work. Focus is on heavy compound lifts first then follow with isolation work. I also do HIIT cardio 3-4 days a week for 25-30 minutes per session.
Exercise list: Bench Press, Close Grip, Incline Barbell, Deadlift, Military Press, Squat, Pull Ups, Dips, DB Press, DB Flyes, DB Rows, DB Curls, BB Curls, Skull Crushers, Delt Raise, Lat Raise, Front Raises, Cable Cross, Low Cable Fly, Cable Row, Tri Pulldown, Cable Front Lat Pulldown, Shrugs, etc. etc.
As I said, I started pinning almost two weeks ago. The prop has been really kicking in. My workouts have been really good. I've broken out with some acne on my temples but am treating this with some prescription cream and don't think it will be a problem. My body temp has been up and have been sweating some at night. My appetite has also been up. Libido is doing pretty well also.
The pip from the prop has sucked. This is my first time using prop. I was pinning only in my quads and they were so sore for a couple days that I stopped doing cardio. Saturday, I hit my delt which was rock hard the next day but not as sore as my quads. I was able to start doing cardio again this weekend. Probably going to hit my other delt today with the prop and put the rest in quad.
I think that is it for now. I will be updating this thread with progress, workouts, sides, changes, etc. throughout the cycle. Maybe I'll even through in some fine ladies and workout tracks for those that subscribe. Thanks for reading!
