    Lots of information in the diet and training section. Read some of the other reviews there.

    Based on info and pics posted, I would still appreciate some feedback regarding:
    1. 5 or 600mg of Test E a week?
    2. Decrease cardio or maintain?
    3. Increase calorie intake or add carbs or both?
    4. Toremifene or Nolva and why?
    5. And curious to know why the bf% two trainers at my gym got was so out of line with your estimates. One trainer entered my age, height and weight into a hand held machine and had me hold it out and squeeze it firmly until it got a reading, and the other used a pincher on my triceps, stomach and the fronts of my thighs. How should I get bf% measured?

    Goals: In a nutshell are to keep 20 lbs after PCT and be able to bench 405 for 8 reps. I plan on going back to my usual habits after PCT, are these goals reasonable?

    I think you'll profit well from a basic test cycle.

    don't know what cardio you're doing now.

    increase cals, definitely. if you've been on a low carb diet, I'd slowly reintroduce carbs during the cycle, and you should have a nice rebound.

    i can only speak from experience on the nolva vs. toremifene. and nolva has always worked fine for me.

    those hand held electronic things are never accurate.

    Calories are at about 3500 a day. Any suggestions what I should increase them to? 500mg or should I just go for 600? Thanks

    I don't know exactly, I'd have to see your whole diet.

    you're probably getting alot of cals from fats, right?

    well, decrease the fats, introduce carbs, and grow.

    Typical Day for the past 2years, very little variation, some days chicken instead of red meat and salmon every few days-
    18oz of tuna (3 6oz cans) with olive oil mixed in
    12 boiled eggs whole
    2 cups 4% cottage cheese
    16 0z red meat
    1 42 gram protein shot after workout
    4 1.5 or so cup servings of vegetables-mostly leafy greens with olive oil
    2 servings of fruit and berries
    About a gallon of water a day
    And 2 servings of Benifiber.

    6 to 12 12oz beers a wee

    lol @ the beer.

    what kind of "red meat" is that? 96/4 lean or what?

    About 8 tsp olive oil a day
    1 tsp or so per can- so about 3 a day with the tuna and another 4 with the salad

    red meat is almost always a 14-18 oz Delmonico, which is like rib eye, very marblelized and fried in cast iron with olive oil

    ok, well my advice still stands.

    cut down cals from the fats and slowly bring in the carbs.

    get some variety in your fat sources.

    cut out the beer.
