Deca helps to alleviate joint pain ive used it many times over the years at a low dose to help when I am under stress and my joints are suffering. There were some studies done what showed deca improving collagen synthesis and also increased bone density in woman who had osteoporosis. It is also stated that it holds water which does have some anti inflammatory properties to ease issues with joint tenderness. There is no doubt it alleviates joint pain by retaining water in connective tissue because so many bodybuilders report this side effect. At the dose I will be using it at it wont be promoting any kind of muscle building effects but it has been shown to stop muscle wastages in HIV patients at 100mgs per week so that cant be a bad thing.

Considering doing this cycle very soon, will depend on my work schedule if I start it now or later on.
Test E/CYP 1500mgs per week
Deca 200mgs per week - already started
Var 100mgs per day
Still eating everything is sight, not weighed myself but getting bigger by the day and my appetite is in full force so I am enjoying the rideLast edited by marcus300; 06-26-2013 at 07:22 AM.

I have arimidex to hand so will be using that at around .25/.50 ED, will start off at .25 and see how I react if I need more then I will up my dose but looking at past cycles I wont need anymore than .50 but who knows my body changes so quickly as I get older.

I have the devil and angel on each delt, the devil keeps telling to go bigger, use heavy burst cycles, lets get some serious size on that frame, lets do it........and the angel tells me to take it easy, maintain, build a couple of lbs and drop some bf, stay healthy. Its a battle what goes on inside my head all the time

Oh I totally understand that. How much do we continue to push as we age? Yes, continuing to "push ourselves" has maintained muscle mass far better than many our age but at what point do you draw the line and think long-term health. I struggle with it as well which is probably why I rarely cycle anymore. Quite honestly if I never cycled again and just rode TRT till the end I'd be just fine! My work ethic / lifestyle would not change one bit. I do get angry as I can't run GH like so many of my friends can do though. I'd just love to see what impact it could have on me. I also still have a young son (11) and that always weighs on my mind as well.
Decisions, decisions.....
Edit: Added a pic from leg day described above and one from the day before sitting in the doc's office with my son for his appt. Got bored waiting and thought this pic was kinda neat..........yes, that bored. Not the best quad shot (not flexed) as they look smaller than they are as my Bberry sucks ars.

^^^^kelkel's training style is also HIT, forced, forced negs, rest/pause etc, as we have talked about?

Marcus, I'm quite surprised to see Anavar in a cycle of yours, with all that test and for all your experience a mere 100mg of var per day isn't going to do a thing is it ?
-
06-26-2013, 01:13 PM #2548
The test isn't a lot for me, infact its low.
100mgs of var works great on me no need for anymore,
I more or less only cycle to maintain if I was bulking seriously (which does cross my mind very often) the cycle would be completely different and look more like a short heavy burst cycle like I use to do.

Yes. Rest pause and occasional drops. Drops though are tough as I have to change weight by myself so it's sort of a combo rest pause / drop combined to accomplish my goal of extending the set to total failure. Example, a little while ago today I did legs. One balls out heavy for 15 reps today followed by a RP set. Got done that and got out from under the bar and took a plate off each side, got back under and cranked out 10 more. Wasn't planning on the last set. Just a spur of the moment thing. Killed me though.
Followed that with one set maybe 5 reps of a warm up on vertical leg presses. Mainly just to make sure positioning for the day was correct, etc. Then one heavy set close to 20 reps followed by two RP sets. I just sit up in on the pad and breath. No need to get up. They are brutal if done right. Then one straight set of extensions then another with two drops. Hams were two sets of seated leg curls each with drop sets (I can reach over and just slide the weight off) to failure. Then two sets of vertical toe presses with RP on second set. Finished with two sets of seated raises. Love my new calf raise machine. Calves can never be too big!Last edited by kelkel; 06-26-2013 at 07:12 PM.

Sounds like a sweet cycle big man
Like the idea of cutting up a bit towards the end
Managed to get to gym yesterday and my back is in agony today
Went hard and heavy and feels sore but good.
Took a few photos and can see growth in lower traps and getting great thickness all over.
But you know my plight getting into the gym at moment so every second in the gym is cherished and used to full extent

Kelkel I too train alone, I push myself to failure but sometimes I feel I may could have pushed myself beyond failure if I had a spotter, or like you say when doing dropsets moving the plates yourself - I feel ready to go again, it's the continuation of reps with a lighter weight that busts it. Db's are easy enough to swap.
How do you get round these examples and train alone to beyond failure ?
-
06-26-2013, 02:57 PM #2552
Marcus, in your experience. Does ones sensitivity to exogenous test decrease with time or is it body weight related ? I'm relating to your 1500mg test. Or is it also related to your trt dosage ?

Serious shoulders and cardio tonight. I started with shoulder hammer press. Heaviest weight for 3 sets, of hit that marcus posted before. 6-8 reps, 4 reps, failure and two dropsets to total failure then negs. Shoulders bursting, then arnie presses same as above, 20kg plate shrugs for high rep failure, then flies, and front raises with db shrugs to finish and then 15 mins cardio

Oh I understand that feeling. It would be great to have a spotter to occasionally do some forced reps, quick drops, challenge me, etc. But it's just not in the cards for me so I have to work with what I've got. RP can be really effective if you're honest with it. Then it just takes time to train your mind to push to failure and beyond.

I know I'm the only one there and no one is going to help me so I just put all the pressure on myself to make it happen. You just have to find ways to improvise and adapt to your surroundings and make it work for you. Just "want" it.Last edited by kelkel; 06-27-2013 at 02:39 PM.

testosterone is dose dependant without doubt, 400 mgs will gain more than 200mgs and 750mgs will result in more gains than 400mgs etc but there is a limit were sides outweigh gains/results but this doesn't mean you should jump right into 1500mgs if your only use to 500mgs, you need to grow into your dose and not just use high amounts what your not use to. I do have a study somewhere what shows the results of different test dose regarding gains and strength which I will post when I get on my computer, makes interesting reading.
You use the right amount whats needed to get results, no more or less. That's why you need to keep a diary of your cycle history so you can see what dose and compounds work for you then you can design the right cycle suited to you, in time you will see what amount is needed to keep on gaining and what amount is needed to maintain. The bigger you get its so fuking hard to carry on building, your body adapts to everything in time so training needs to increase, you need to change your diet around and also design the right cycle for YOU.

I've experimented a lot with different cycles, compounds and dosages and like many know I'm a big believer in short burst cycles and in my younger days when I was bulking I would use some large dosages. The most I've used was around 5g per wk of AAS plus 15 ius of Hgh. Around 6 years ago I took my foot of the gas with regards to cycling and I stopped. I went around 4 yrs steroid free (except HRT) and now I just do one to two cycles per year to maintain. I will confess I did use to use a lot of AAS and my health does concern me as I grow older and that’s why I took my foot off the gas. It’s amazing how much tissue you can maintain by intense training and diet alone.
The amount what would be the sweet spot for me was 3g per week which would be a mixture of compounds, this would give me great size with minimal side anything over 3g created side effects what I would say outweighed the gains, even though ive used 5g many times in my experimental stages 3g was a far better dose for me in my short heavy burst cycles.
