Well, after a few years Natty, I'm jumping back in the fire. My wife just won a local figure competition, so I figure I better get my physique back up to snuff...
Me:
35, 5-10, 215, 15%
Cycle:
2 grams of Tren A week, 3 grams Test E, 200 mg DROL daily....J/K
Week 1-9 or 10: Test C / Mast E: 400 Mg Ea per week. 2 shots/week. Pinned 1st Shot this AM. I've never run Mast, so we will see how it goes.
Week 1-4: 15-20 mg DBol Pre-Workout (why not, I got 'em and who doesn't like a little Dbol pump)
I usually Frontload longer esters, but I'm not this time. The DBol will add a little fire to the first few weeks.
After Mast/Test C I will run 100mg Prop EOD for 2 weeks or so.
After everything clears, I will be running Scally's PCT.
I have everything I need on-hand for any estro-related sides, but won't be using anything unless I get issues. I'm interested to see if I get any estro-sides. I never have in the past, but I'm a bit older and fatter now, so time will tell.
Big 3 lifts 1RM: DL 495, Squat 405, Bench 315 (Bench sucks, got shoulder issues so it prob won't move much). These are actual recent maxes, No calculator BS. I used to Rep these weights out when on cycle, but moving them up isn't really my top priority of this cycle.
Diet:
Trying a new diet (for me) to see how it works to get a little shred on. I've been doing IF for the past 2 weeks, and I think I like it. I've shed a few pounds - was 220 a few weeks ago, and my strength has not budged. I though for sure I would lose strength/muscle rapidly, but it hasn't happened thus far. To me, half the fun of this lifestyle, is beta testing different training/diet protocols, and seeing the results, or lack there-off. If it doesn't seem to be working in a few weeks, I will change back to my old bodybuilding staple, but right now, I like the thought of shocking my system with new gear and a new diet. I know what I need for macros and whatnot, so I'm not going to get into it.
Training:
I've always done "Power-Building" or variants with Athletic training mixed in (see power-cleans, front squats, etc.), I also dabbled in some Olympic Lifting for awhile. My joints need a break though, and I am not going to kill them adding a bunch of weight to the bar the next few weeks, so I will be going for more "hypertrophy" training in the weight room EOD, and then I've been doing "strongman" type training with a good group 2x per week between lifting days, and it's like HIT cardio w/ some strength benifits, but a lot more fun. Think flipping tires, pushing/pulling the prowler, and sledgehammer swings. I get about 80 miles on my road bike on the weekends. Going to work on my arms-specifically bi's because I have arms like someone who has done O-Lifts/Power Cleans, Etc.
Goal: Keep as much muscle and strength as possible while getting down to +/- 10%. See how I like Mast. I guess you would call it a re-comp. Been doing this a long time. I don't expect any miracles, but I'm sure I will have great results.
