[QUOTE=F4iGuy;5130202]I know reload reps are to good failure. Does the same apply for higher reps (10-15) during Deload? YES, YOU STILL TRAIN TO GOOD FAILURE DURING DELOADS AS YOU ARE STILL TRYING TO MAKE GAINS WITH LESS VOLUME. "P.S. YOUR LATS ARE LOOKING RIDICULOUS!"[/QUOTE] ABOVE

Ronnie, I always train short to failure for 12 sets and reduce the volume every 8 weeks or so............I fell overtrain very quick when I train to failure even for couple sets, so what do you think?

Ronnie;
hcg 2500 is every other day for 2 weeks
clomid 50 mgs twice per day for 4 weeks
nolvadex 20 mgs per day for 4 weeks
Going to start PCT soon, my source has told me there is NO WAY he would do hcg with PCT. He also takes AAS and says since I didn't run any during my cycle, that its a bad choice to run on PCT. Any thoughts or comments that I can relay to him on this?
-
Begin by reducing works sets by around 8-9 sets for major body parts. Next don't train to all-out-failure but stop just shy to preserve CNS. Lastly, make sure you are waiting plenty of time between work sets, especially when training larger muscle groups that are more demanding on the nervous system.

[QUOTE=ricky23;5130365]hi ronnie, i was planning to undertake the 20 week cycle you recommended but i couldnt get hold of the tri-test, tri-tren until recently so i took a pct of clomid and novaldex after my first 8 week cycle of sus deca and dbol (i didnt like the dbol because of the water retention and bloating!) i really do think that the 20 week cycle you recommended is excellent and i really appreciate it, i was thinking of adding winstrol so it would be 1g of test + 400mg of tren + 350mg of winny - would that be a good addition ?YES! i would then deload for 2 weeks with 500mg of test and do a higher dose of the above for the second phase.
on the cycle i was planning 500g of protein 200g of carbs and 50-70g healthy fats. please let me know what you think.500 GRAMS OF PROTEIN SOUNDS LIKE TOO MUCH UNLESS YOU WEIGH 250 PLUS. HOW MUCH DO YOU WEIGH?[/QUOTE]ABOVE

No disrespect assumed, I was under the assumption that using the hcg was the best way to go. I will follow your suggestion I like my "boys" to be normal.

[QUOTE=Ronnie Rowland;5125556]Ron, I have been following the carb-cycling for about 3 weeks now in an attempt to shed some bodyfat.
I have been trying to lean out ever since I finished my h-drol (PH) cycle back in late December, and I have lost almost 50 pounds. I started the h-drol at a weight of 200, and in 6 weeks was up to 218. Even before that cycle, I was able to climb from 170 to the above mentioned 200 all natural. I achieved the weight increases (both natty and PH) on a HUGE calorie diet of roughly 400p, 500c and I'm not sure of the fat intake. This worked GREAT for size and strength, but my bf increased significantly, I'd say 8-10%. The bulking diet program I used is called "no-nonsense muscle building" by Vince Delmonte. He claimed you can't get big and strong without getting a "little" fat in the process. Once I peaked at 218, I began cutting with his "Empowered nutrtion" cutting meal plans. I'm just really frustrated because as I said above, I have lost 50 pounds since the end of my h-drol cycle, and I am still no where near "cut" My arms went from 18in to 16in, my chest went from 48 to 42, not to mention strength losses etc. I'm just trying to fully explain why I'm frustrated. Is this sort of transformation normal when cutting? Am I just expecting too much? I just feel somethings wrong. Can you PLEASE help me with all of this, I'll post my current diet, cardio, whatever you want, but I need you to set me straight. I would GREATLY appreciate it.
p.s. I have been losing the 1-2 pounds/week following the carb cycling, but I don't seem to look any leaner.
p.s.s. What's your take on Vince Delmonte?

Meal 1: around 6oz baked chicken breast (55 grams of protein, 5 grams fat) 1 cup oatmeal (60 grams of carbs).
Meal 2: around 6oz baked chicken breast (55 grams of protein, 5 grams of fat) and 45grams of cheese (14 grams protein, 15 grams fat)
Meal 3: Tuna(2 cans) (60 grams of Protein) 3 TBS Olive Oil Mayo (15 grams of fat) 45 grams of cheese (14 grams protein, 15 grams fat)
Meal 4: around 6oz baked chicken breast (55 grams of protein, 5 grams fat) 2/3 cup oatmeal (40 grams of carbs).
(Workout)
Meal 5: around 6oz baked chicken breast (55 grams of protein, 5 grams of fat) 1 banana (25grams of carbs)
Meal 6: around 6oz baked chicken breast (55 grams of protein, 5 grams fat) with 1 tablespoon of smart balance peanut butter (8 grams of fat)
That turns into approximately 363 grams protein, (only 125 grams Carbs), and around 78 grams of fat. Calories = 2654
On none Workout days I just switch all my Carb meals to the first and second meal... and make the other 4 meals Pro/Fat then it brings my macros to about this
377 grams of protein, 100grams of carbs, and 93 grams of fat
Calories = 2745
I know i don't have any whey in there or egg whites... I currently have alot of chicken stocked and no money for whey protein (Just started new job and don't get paid for a while) and egg whites I will start taking those again when i get money... (I use to for a long time)
My total daily calorie requirement is about 3300-3400
Oh also i'm 6' 225lbs, 24 years old
P.S i use cheese because i work construction at the moment, it is easiest to bring with me instead of olive oil, when it times to eat on the job site i can just take the chicken and cheese out of my pocket and munch it down quick... it's just the easiest thing for me.

[QUOTE=Ronnie Rowland;5131467]Yes i'm in a cutting phase, The first half of my Cycle was a bulk then i had to switch over to cutting for the other half. I was planning on it being just a bulk but I didn't realize it was coming to the summer months so quickly and decided i should shed some BF. So i posted up my diet as it is now, Since i'm starting PCT on Monday should i bump my calories up to maintenance? until i'm done PCT? to maybe preserve muscle? or keep it where it is below Maintenance?
And HCG ... Should i be injecting that into the muscle or some fat? does it matter?
Just to Clarify say a 20 week cycle ends on week 20 and i'm to take HCG on the 21st and 22nd week? then clomid and Nolva for the 23rd,24th,25th and 26th weeks? Making the entire PCT of HCG/Clomid/Nolva 6 weeks?Last edited by Juicedupmonkey; 04-02-2010 at 09:44 AM.

Ron
What do u mean when u say hcg only last around a week in a sterile water? does that mean a week after being mixed with sterile water the hcg loses its potency? or it means that there is higher risk of bacterial growth, therefore not safe to use anymore?
Been scouring around the forum and I found this:
"HGH should ideally be used for 20-30 week cycles (or longer). The dosage should be between 2-3IU per day if you are using GH primarily for fat loss, 4-5 IU’s a day for both fat loss and muscle growth, and approximately 1.0 – 2.0 IU’s a day for females. It is best to split your injections 1/2 first thing in the morning, 1/2 early afternoon if your dose is above 3.0 IU’s per day. Your pituitary will naturally produce about 6-9 pulses of GH per day. Each injection you take will create a negative feedback loop that will suppress these pulses for about 4 hours. By taking your injections first thing in the morning and early afternoon you will still allow your body to release its biggest pulse, which normally occurs shortly after going to sleep at night."
Last time you told me the best way to take HGH is to take the whole 4iu at night before bed time, what's ur take on the possibility of suppressing the night time natural gh release when taking exogenous hgh before going to bed at night?Last edited by Coca Cola; 04-05-2010 at 12:39 PM.

yes hit each muscle twice a week when a major plateau occurs from training each muscle once a week.
Ever wonder why some people who have been training each muscle group once a week with volume for a very long time can change over to a lower volume routine like dc training that hits the muscles twice a week and they make some additional gains? I have learned it's not the rest-pause training,etc. What's really going on is that you are now doing less volume and hitting each muscle with more frequency (twice a week)!
This kind of training is good to do on occasion once staleness occurs but it's not the best way to train for the long haul. Training each muscle once a week while using the slingshot approach is superior as a baseline but twice a week muscle group training (for example 3-6 sets done twice per week (totalling 6-12 sets total per week for each muscle) using the slingshot approach should be a part of everyone's plan.

Ronnie for the 8 weeks on , 2 weeks cruise, then 8 weeks on
with long esters wouldn't 8 weeks be too short? if not then wouldn't you want to do short esters for something like 6 weeks? just curious because i want to do test e/tren e/Dbol for the first re-load then test e/tren e/masteron for the 2nd re-load (might just do short esters for the 2nd reload test p/tren ace/masteron p)

cool thanks...so what do you think of this lay out? anything you would change?
phase 1:
weeks: 1-4 Dbol : 40mg ed
weeks 1-8 Test E: 500mg ew
weeks 1-8 Tren E: 400mg ew
De-load: Test E @ 250mg ew
Phase 2:
weeks 1-8: Test E @ 250 mg ew
*(test e is already kicked in so might as well run it)
weeks 1-8: Tren A @ 75mg ed
weeks 1-8: Masteron @ 100mg ed
De-load: Test E @ 250mg ew

nnaaasssttyy,
Take some time and read all the stickies in all the various sections. They will serve you will and will answer your questions.
If you don't take the time to read and make an attempt to answer your own questions, that have already been asked a million times by many others, you are likely not to get any worthwhile responses.
Welcome to the site. There is a wealth of knowledge here.
Ronnie, thanks for an awesome post! I'm applying it now.

since you said run the test @ 750mg + wouldent that make more sides when running tren ? its to my impression that you should run test lower than tren to let the tren do the work? plus it reduces sides iv heard

So when we're taking exogenous hgh, it will shutdown our natural gh production regardless of the time its taken, just like how test is...
Ok, so now that brings me to the next questions, how do we recover our natural gh production after being shutdown?
is there any certain substance we have to take?
or will it recover by itself?
how long will it take to recover?
What do you think of dumbbell pullover ronnie? is it a good chest exercise? is it necessary to include in chest day? how many sets and reps?Last edited by Coca Cola; 04-10-2010 at 08:05 AM. Reason: additional question

Hi ron...
First of all, I want to thank you for your guidance, help, and explanation before.
You're so damn great, ron...
I used this slingshot for my previous 10 weeks p-plex cycle (kickstarted with 3 weeks of m-drol) with great result.
I started my first injectable cycle on April 11, 2010. (Typo, should be : April 04, 2010)
I was nervous and shaking like a bitch when doing first time injection LOL... I did it by myself in my right ventro-gluteal. Luckily, everything went well. There was only small pain when the needle was going in. I aspirated, there were small bubbles in the syringe (no blood) then I pushed the plunger slowly (about 40 seconds for 1ml testosterone enanthate ).
Today is my second injection, I hope everything goes well...
Here is my cycle layout :
Week 1-4: 30mg dbol per day
Week 1-8: 500mg Test Enanthate per week (twice shot EW)
Week 9-10: 250mg Test Enanthate per week (twice shot EW)
Week 11-13: 10mg M1T per day
Week 11-18: 500mg Test Enanthate per week (twice shot EW)
Week 11-18: 60mg Propadrol per day (2 caps)
Week 19-20: 250mg Test Enanthate per week (twice shot EW)
NB: I use HCG 500IU per week (twice shot) during week 2-21.
Then do PCT for 4 weeks consists of clomid & nolva.
I would ask some question about HCG, ron. I am going to use 250IU 2x per week on tuesday and friday during week 2-21 (for 20 weeks length). Could that long usage of HCG damage or desenzitize my leydig cells?
I bought 4 vial of 5000IU HCG and 1 vial of sterile water containing 20ml.
I store my HCG vial in fridge. How long can I use the HCG after being reconstituted?
I am planning to use 1 vial for about 30 days. Is it OK?
Does HCG lose its potency after for 30 days?
I have been searching that HCG can last for 30-60days after being reconstituted. Does the potency lost depend on the brand of HCG?
BTW, mine is made in japan. I can't read the japanese characters/letters.
I think it's intervet (not human pharmaceutical grade).
Many thanks ron....Last edited by Yellow; 04-08-2010 at 09:03 PM. Reason: Typo : April 11. Should be : April 04.

hi ronnie, i have a question about spot injections - ive tried to research it as much as possible but there seems to be no conclusive evidence to suggest whether it works or not. some people have good things to say but the only reasonable explanation i found is that the the muscle fibres may be forced to stretch within that muscle group to make room for the compound - not sure if this is growth or inflammation. what do you think? i would have thought injecting directly into a targeted muscle group would cause some growth but im not sure if glute or quad injections are better because of how large they are resulting in better distribution.
thanks ronnie.

[QUOTE=Ronnie Rowland;5137283]Hey, thanks for the advice thus far. I just got my test e and did my first injection last night. My question is, I know ideally one should inject a longer ester like test e every 3.5 days, BUT can I simply just inject at the same times every wednesday/sunday? Or just 3 days then 4 days then 3 days etc.?? I want to make sure I optimize my blast, thank you
Also, should I take my clen in the morning or before my workout??Last edited by Archangel.; 04-08-2010 at 12:09 PM.

Ronnie,
Just finished 20wk reload/deload now going on Pct . This is my first cycle , great gains.
So Pct and then wait 10 weeks before I start again do you think?
Im thinking Of adding 1 or 2 compounds next time , this cycle was 500mg Sust up to 750mg sust to 1000mg sust last 3 weeks. Gains slowed dramaticlly in last couple of weeks.
(I had no sides other than some very minor acne durin deload. I also didnt loose any weight in deload.)
Im thinking Dbol or Tbol to kickstart/ Test/Deca or Dbol or Tbol /Test/ Tren .
Your advice appreciated.
Thanks
