First Cycle Check Please!!!

[Lunk1]

-Supernatural
Thanks supernatural. It took me a long time to decide to do it. I figured since I'm now 30 that there wasn't going to be any type of pro ball in my future from here on out and I wasn't going to go back and play any in college anymore so i said why not. It was a thought out decision though.

Lunk
Yeah man thanks for keeping an eye out on me. My back is def my wrong suit as far as power goes. I wish the rest of my body went as easy as it does. I can't wait to see what the next 5 weeks brings. Going to be kind of sad when its over I think but I will be planning my next cycle here soon. I just wish I could get one more bulk cycle in with test and deca then do a cut cycle over the summer but I don't think I have the time to get that in. Recommendations?

Yes but we can discuss it when the time gets a bit closer...one step at a time

Haha I hear ya brother...just anxious. I'll start a new thread later on that. Prob during pct or later and start checking it all out then. Right now test e is working quite nice!

Yo! Lookin good bro, been busy haven't been on as much as I would have liked... but shit, can totally see a difference from the before pics! Haven't been able to get my hands on a source yet, so i've actually opted to run a cycle of proHormones starting next week. I'll have a thread on the ironmag forum where i got them from. But again, awesome work Jax!

Thanks man for checking up on it. Yeah been making some pretty good progress in the gym. I've put on some significant weight gain. I've got up to 203 so far but I haven't checked my BF yet. I want to wait till the end to check that bit I have cut down a lot from what I can tell. My strength is through the roof though. I was maxing probably 320 on bench in the beginning and I'm hoping by week 12 I hit 405. That's a definite possibility I never thought I would get to. I just want to double my body weight and I'll be happy. 5'8 200ish benching 405...yeah I'll be happy! I don't do a lot of squats with free weights or dead lifts due to lower back pains constantly so I stick to the machines mostly on leg days except for calfs but on leg press I'm a beast.
I tell you man the biggest problem I have is a good source. My guy is good and I have quality product but its such a pain to get from him. He sketches out a lot and I have to stay on him about getting me what I need. I doubt I go with him again the next time unless I can't find another. It should be "this is what I need" get it "thank you" and done with that...back to normal. But it's never that easy. Why is it so hard to find a good quality source that isn't sketch?!!! Geez!

[Jdbjr86]

Man those are some impressive stats! I bet ur BF will be low as well by the looks of things! Yeah dude, the source thing just takes time and patience it seems. But as long as u got yours ur good for now obviously lol. I'm excited for these proH seems to be a lot of good reviews a d results over on ironmag, gotta start somewhere eh?

I'm sure the bf is down quite a bit. I wasn't able to get my hands on HCG which would have helped with the cutting aswell but this was more of a basic cycle anyway to see how I would do. March will be my cutting cycle I'm thinking, so I will have a while to see how I need to work the source thing depending on my BW.
I tried to look up the proH stuff and couldn't find anything on it. You should post it on the board and see how the reviews are on here with some of these vets. Awesome advice as you can tell. This site has become my second addiction when I'm board much like scrolling through Facebook but with more of a purpose. Now more accessible with the phone app haha.
By the way if that's still your location on your profile that's an awesome area you live in. I have family in Port St. Lucie and absolutely love the area.

[Jdbjr86]

Good plan, test cycle then u can lean out later prolly how I would go ab doing it as well. if u go to ironmaglabs.com u can read up on them, I'll be on the halo extreme stack plus super dmz 2.0. And yup, currently living in delray beach, love it down here it's friggin awesome!

[Jaxon0408]

Well it's come to the end of a long 12 week road Test E. You have done a good job adding muscle and strength to my body and I thank you but I have to let you go. It's not you...it's me. Ok that's a lie it is you! You have taken your toll on my body and I have to let you go for a little while. Thank you for the 8-10 lbs of mass and the huge strength gains you gave me. It is much appreciated. Now after pct and time off we can continue our relationship again in a few months and I'll bring a few more friends to the mix. Sorry this had to happen right at Christmas.

[Lunk1]

Lets see some before and afters!

[Jaxon0408]

^^^ I will have some up soon. I haven't really changed much since the last pics but I def need to take end of cycle pics anyway. Holidays kind of had me slacking on the diet .

[TrainingWheels]

Mad props, congrats.

Through your cycle, did you always stay around ~2,100 calories?

[Jaxon0408]

Honestly I always tried to stay closer to 3k calories. I didn't always make it due to work and life in general and I could have given an extra 10% on my diet and had better gains but all in all I'm very happy. I was 192ish when I started and I'm a solid 202 @ 5'8" and still the same BF @ 12% so I'm proud of my 10lbs of muscle I put on. I'll post pics later when I get home and have the time and try to put together some before and afters. You can def tell a big difference in my physic from then to now.

[TrainingWheels]

Damn.... that's a big jump in calories for me.

[Jaxon0408]

Damn.... that's a big jump in calories for me.

Nah it's not that bad of a jump. Instead of one chicken for lunch eat 2...instead of 3 eggs eat 6 . Just make sure it's all good high protein food. Start you a thread in what you want to accomplish with your body either on cycle or natural because I see your undecided and I will do my best to help you along and the vets on this site are top notch IMO and will point you in the correct direction you need to be in. There are no stupid questions on this site when it comes to your health and safety.

[Jaxon0408]

1st 3 were pre cycle and the rest are post taken today. Hope I made a little progress.

[MickeyKnox]

You hardened up, dried up, and leaned out! Looks good bro! Good job!

[Shsm]

Forearms and shoulders look great man...


Definitely made some great progress.

[Lunk1]

I don't know man..you sure that gear was legit..not really seing any change...maybe a bit smaller now even

[Jaxon0408]

Thanks guys. Tried to keep the diet pretty tight but slacked off every now and then but all in all I'm happy.

Lunk- haha you know it brother. I'm still questioning it myself.

What can I expect post cycle as far as strength loss or muscle and physic loss. Should I stay on the same diet....etc.

[Jaxon0408]

Anybody?

[hyphy_beast]

Anybody?

Yes bro absolutely stay eating the calories, and keep water intake up. You should expect to lose some strength and weight of course, but how much is up to how strictly you stick to your routine. I lost a lot last cycle and was pretty bothered by it but I slacked off And your pct is ready to go right?

Yeah man Nolva and clomid are sitting here ready to go after next week. I figured some strength and size would go but I didn't know how much exactly so I want to maintain as much as possible.

It's gonna drop bro but that's just the name of the game. Don't let it get to your head.

[Jaxon0408]

Ugh I think I pretty much lost everything. I'm steady losing weight. Back down to 190. I even started dirty bulking to try and keep weight on but nothing is doing any good. PCT is over now and my strength is back where it was before I started but the good news is I can tell a little more definition than when I started last September. I think that's the only gains I was able to sustain. Come on March! I'll post my next cycle in a new thread when I have it all worked out.

[Soar]

Ouch... Possible muscle gain and fat loss at least?

[Jaxon0408]

I def kept some lean mass. I'm more cut and lean and thicker through my chest legs and shoulders especially than before but not like I was on cycle. Going to the gym right now kind of sucks because its disappointing as far as strength goes. Im just not pumped like i was. Hopefully I can get some natural weight going on here soon. I can hit 200 naturally with a strict diet so that's my goal before my next cycle in Miarch.
