    Hi,

    Well, not good news on the weight gain front as you can see below:

    Week 1 203.5lbs
    Week 2 207.5lbs
    Week 3 212.0lbs
    Week 4 215.5lbs
    Week 5 216.0lbs

    Only put on 1/2 lb this week...that sucks. I am eating as much as I can. I think maybe I should drop some of my cardio and only do 3 days a week? Any ideas?

    Pics to come below

    Hey guys,

    Just looking at my pics and I can't see much of a difference. I am looking pretty lame at this point and getting frustrated. I am thinking I need much higher doses of TEST to get better results. Next time I may go for 750mg a week.

    bro..your test is probably just getting ready to kick in if your at week 5 now, and you have gone from 203.5lbs to 216 in 4 weeks. Alot of people dont get that in a whole cycle. I can tell a difference in your pics, your pecs are getting more shape and beginning to look a bit more solid even tho your on a water retaining cycle..good results, keep it up

    Hey again,

    Well I guess my diet and workout routine did not inspire too much from you guys.

    Anyway, did my first DELT injections ever today and I really liked them. Felt I was much more in control than my GLUTE. I think I will do DELTS and QUADS for the rest of this cycle.

    Getting scared about my weight. Today I got on the scale and was down a pound from Monday....what is with that? I have been pissing my ass off for the last few days???? Dbol gains?

    Hi,

    Two days after my first DELT injections and the discomfort from them has been much easier to take than either the GLUTES or QUADS. My arms do look a little swollen. My Delts and Bi's sorta form one big lump right now...looks weird.

    Does anyone else get this?

    You can't really do tris the day after chest unless you're looking to overtrain your tris. I'd suggest something like..
    1 chest tris
    2 off/abs
    3 back bis
    4 shoulders abs tris
    5 off
    6 legs bis
    7 off/abs

    Hey again,

    Starting week 6 and still feeling pretty good. Did my left QUAD injection today without any problems at all. My DELTS and BI's are still looking pretty swole from my last DELT injection on Thursday.

    Starting to get used to eating more food. Somedays it is really tough to get some meals down, but so far so good.

    Week 1 203.5lbs
    Week 2 207.5lbs
    Week 3 212.0lbs
    Week 4 215.5lbs
    Week 5 216.0lbs
    Week 6 218.0lbs

    Still would like to get some feedback on my workout and diet....only one response.

    I will try to get some week 6 pics up soon.

    Chris....I was looking to see what others thought about your comment. I've been doing fine with my tri's and have seen great development over the last month or so.

    Yeah I know my BF looks high in these pics and I don't have much definition right now. But I am not worried. My main goal now is SIZE. I know I can cut down in the Spring without any problem. Right now I just want to make everything BIGGER and BETTER.

    COme on guys...flame away????

    recommend

    As far i can see, you are making progress, the only thing i can recommend you is to double your protein intake and cut carbs to 0 after 5 pm.
    Also check your training, increase intensity and volume .
    Do some cardio 3 times a week.
    Keep going its WORKING

    Two things:

    1- Make sure you are getting enough rest. At least 8 hrs a night and a few cat naps a week. We grow when we are resting, remember that.

    2- If you are set on putting on MASS .. then keep the cardio to a minimum.

    I don't know which way to go with the cardio...half of you tell me to keep my 20 mins/6days week, some say increase it, and other say drop it completely.

    Asleep by 11pm each night and get up at 7:30am each morning, so I am getting a good 8 1/2 each night.

    Currently getting around 225-250g protein a day....is that enough?

    increase protein to 300, cardio 20 min 3 times a week thats it.
    After workout shake, add some sugar, banana & milk

    I agree with Chris about the overtraining the tri's

    Monday chest (workout tri's indirectly)
    tues bis/tris (direct tri workout)
    wed shoulders(another indirect tri workout)

    You are working your tri's 3 days in a role i would suggest that you do something more like this

    Monday\ chest&abs
    tuesday\ back
    wednesday\shoulders
    thrusday\legs&abs
    friday\arms

    and save the days off for the weekend this is just another suggestion.

    Oh are those stretchmarks i see on your stomach? just curious

    peace out

    Thanks for the suggestions guys. I think I am going to mix up my training and go with somethings similar to what BigMike suggest. I need a change anyway

    YEAH, they are strechmarks. Used to weigh around 300lbs about 6 yrs ago. I was a fat ass MFer. Also had a tummy tuck about 3 yrs ago. It helped alot. I usually keep my abs hairy to cover those marks...but shaved this week for some dumb reason.

    Bri, keep up the good work big man. Ok to recitfiy the the cardio thing, because I posted earlier you should and other posted you shouldnt cause you are bulking. Here is what I meant, not to go against what others are saying, but I always do....LOL....You want to do 30 to 45 min of light/low impact cardio. You see it will help shed some of the water weight and fat from you, but most importantly is what cardio means itself. Your cardiovascular exercise is just that cardio=heart. Cardio exercise is used to strengthen you heart, like bicep curls strengthen your biceps. You always, in my opinion, need to incorporate some sort of cardio into you resistance training program. If you keep it low impact/low intinsity you will not lose any results from you bulking intentions. You dont have to put yourself on different echelon and run 20 miles everyday, just keep it simple and low impact to strengthen you heart bro. You resluts so far, as of week six, are looking good. I notice size in your arms, delts, and especially your pecs, in which your getting good formation in. Keep it up bri.......

    Hey Talon,

    Thanks for the info. I am currently doing 20 mins of fast walking every day. Usually do the indoor track in my gym about 10 times. Before the cycle I did 30 mins, but cut it down during the cycle...is this bad./..should I go back to 30?

    Also, wondering after my cycle ends in Nov, should I contiue my bulk diet into Feb?

    Great brotha this sounds ok. The reason, as a PT, I teach my clients to got for 30 to 45 min. it to increase met. thus increasing the fat burning effects of cardio throughout the day, not just why they are doing it. This is not your intentions, to burn fat, so I would say stay with what you are doing, because your intentions are to strengthen you heart as a muscle. Any cardio, in my opinion, is better than none.
    As for you bulking cycle question, yes run it for as long as your were on the cycle, post-cycle. This is funny cause I just posted almost the same question about post cycle dieting in the other forum and this was PHEED's suggestion.

    To continue the same bulking diet you were on during your cycle for aslong as you were on during post-cycle. For example if your cycle is 10 weeks, after you finish your cycle continue the same diet for 10 more weeks post cycle. If you start to cut calories, esp. carbs, immediatly post cycle, you will be creating a catabolic enviroment and start to lose gains.
