Good luck Mass. It has been a long time of bulking so I wish you the best of luck with this cycle. Keep whoring it up.

***BIG TEXAN*** · 11-15-2003, 03:15 PM

Best of luck "shorty".

Ok seriously I'd switch your shoulder day and bi/tri day, so that your arms are already fried when doing your shoulder workout.

***50%Natural*** · 11-15-2003, 03:23 PM

True, shoulders suck when your triceps are blown from the day before. On that note I will go hit up my arms.

**Da Bull** · 11-15-2003, 03:39 PM

With Big T's advice you look good to go...would have like to seen you drop your bf a little first though,but Big T has your back there so all is good.All the best...DB

**mass junkie** · 11-15-2003, 04:08 PM

Bt, I've been juggleing around with my workouts....and this works the best for me......my shoulders are already very strong.....and I have no problem pushing up major weight on my shoulder and trap day.....everything is coming along nicely........and as for the Bf....yeah I know I probaly shoulda shedded a few pounds......I just figured I would start around April to do so....Im going to be doing Cardio 3 x a week for about 30 minutes....

**Diesel** · 11-15-2003, 04:22 PM

Yeah I have to give him credit...hes a wiz when it comes to that sort of thing

**talon** · 11-17-2003, 04:52 PM

Mass, congradulations brotha. Im so excited to see how your body and mind reacts to this cycle. I believe youre going to blow up and enjoy every second of it. Remember to bring in alot of potassium to stop from cramping (gatorade and bananas), glutamine for recovery, and stretch more heavily, which will stop tearing issues. Also, heat the oil in the needle w/ warm water, it will help when injecting because it is less viscus. Oh and warn your wife about the sex drive youre fixing to endure. She will probably invite that friend of hers over more to help you guys out cause youre going to be a maniac...

....I was there when you began youre journey, helped you through it, and now youre beginning. LOL, now its a race to see who can put on more weight...Im up 18.5lbs (201.5lbs)......

**bigol'legs** · 11-17-2003, 05:10 PM

Good job Mass... I think he cryed to

As far as the leg routine goes do it this week and I wanna feel out your strength,endurance,rest time. Ill switch it up every week for you to get optimum growth...

And juggs.. good mornings I do on back day...

**mass junkie** · 11-17-2003, 06:12 PM

**mass junkie** · 11-18-2003, 07:15 AM

I have to give my opinions on day 1.......it was a really good day all in all ...the only thing to write about was the fact that I think the dbol had me feeling flush all day.....it was a weird sort of feeling....I took 1 pill in the morning w/food
2 pills 5 hours later w/food and 3 pills about 4 hours later which was 1 hour before I went to the gym.....my workout partner noticed that my face was all red....I felt hot......but it subsided once I started to work out.....I ate well and frequent and drank plenty of water just as the diet is layed out....im just wondering if this is a known side effect or is it just my mind over reacting?........but all in all it was a good day.

***BIG TEXAN*** · 11-18-2003, 07:24 AM

That's normal bro... the dbol will raise your blood pressure. With the dbol, space them out evenly, take 2 in the am, 2 a few hours later and the other 2 yet another few hours later. Keep it up bro.... I like the title to.

**TheMudMan** · 11-18-2003, 10:27 AM

Yep..... BigT is right just watch if you start getting headaches or bloody noses then you need to stop the d-bol.... bp is getting too high at that point....... but you are fine.
