Alright y’all check it out. Long post but here it goes- looking for some feedback on my plan. Finishing up a successful cut here. Currently in my best condition to date and have a lot of people interested in me competing. Posted quite a few pics in the “Who’s the most shredded member of Meso” thread. Have been to a few local shows recently just to watch and now I’m hooked. Personally, I’m not ready too compete this year but getting in this condition really got me itching to get on stage. Need to practice posing more and really want to add some size first though. Plan is to compete in a local show as a novice mid-May 2020. Not sure what division/class I’d compete in yet though.
Here’s the plan. Have a couple weeks of this cut left. Plan to take a month for trt dose and maintenance cals and reset with a couple week training deload. Then July 1st blast back off through the winter for an “Offseason Growing Cycle”. Then plan to take two months off and start prep February 1st 2020. I’d hire a coach for this.

GH Optitroptin 4iu eod
Insulin around cheat meals/preworkout to match carb intake
GH and insulin I’m still debating. Have used before but not sure I’ll need it. May just use insulin around cheat meals.
Can go higher with test if needed have .5cc space left in pin eod. Have ran doses this high before but not for this length of time and it’s been a couple years so I’m thinking I’ll respond well.
Training
Training will be MD style switching between his last two 6 week programs-Collusus and Odin Force with a one week deload between programs.
Health/Vitamins
Vitamins to help with health-Vitamin C, Vitamin D, Krill oil, Vitamin K, Citrus Bergamont, IP6, Astragulus, Cucurmin, and Carditone if needed. Donating blood Every 52 days to keep Hematocrit in check.
Food
Calories will start out maintenance at 3,500cals training days (300p/475c/55f) 3,000 non-training days (300p/350c/50f) and will steadily increase throughout to as high as needed keeping Protein at 1.5g/bw, fats on lower end (no added fats), and backfilling rest of calories with carbs. Would start with increasing calories around workouts then may have to add another meal in to get the cals.
Here’s a sample look at how I’m laying out my meal plan for maintenance.

I’m currently a lean 195 @ 5’8”. Really not sure where BF is but I’ll put up a couple pics. I pushed up to 220 pretty easy last winter on 4,500 cals/day and much lower doses. I know I can push that much higher this year.
I know this is more of a prep-cycle discussion thread but I see a lot of familiar faces and competitors in this thread so wanted to get some good feedback from y’all with offseason cycle experience.
Thanks
