First Cycle

[Kad]

Hello Everyone,

I’m a newbie and I need some advice and constructive criticism about my first cycle. I am limited to oral/topical only and legal only (USA). I’m an infantry veteran and have lifted on and off over the years. In my mid 30’s I let myself go which included general health and weight. Over the last year I’ve been getting things back together but it’s slow and I need to speed things up a bit. Physical fitness isn’t as easy as it used to be – this is where the cycle comes in.

Here are my stats:

Height: 5’11”

Weight: 223lbs

BF%: Not sure – but I’m a bit of a butter ball. I was 260lbs this time last year.

Age: 39

Motivation: I’m tired of being a slug who looks like he couldn’t punch his way out of a paper bag (but must know a secret about how to get inside a potato chip bag), I want to be more attractive for my wife, and being a fat bastard (Austin Powers reference) doesn’t set a good example for my children.

Goals: I don’t feel the need to look like the hulk but I do feel the need to look athletic and slightly jacked like when I was in my 20’s. I’m not sure what this means for BF% or weight, but I believe I’ll know it when I get there. I want to speed up fat loss and gain muscle and strength.

Cycle Plan:
Ultradrol: 0/0/8/16/20/24/0/0
Methylstenbolone from Antaeus Labs

PCT: 0/0/0/0/0/0/4/4
Post-Cycle 3x from Vital Labs (Bulgarian Tribulus terrestris, Trans Reservatol, Eurycoma Longfolia, Caffeine, Milk Thistle, NAC, ZMA, Zinc Aspartate, Magnesium, Indole 3 Carbinol, Avena Sativa)

MHO Poppers: 0/0/3/3/3/3/3/3
Forged by Transform Supplements


Milk Thistle: 140/140/140/140/140/140/140/140
Naturemade

Multi Vitamin: 2 a day on and off cycle
Megamen from GNC (non sport version)

Fish Oil: 1g per day on and off cycle
Naturemade

Food: Chicken breast and other low fat proteins, white rice, green vegies M-F. Sat and Sunday a bit more lax with intake and will eat whatever my family eats which may include pizza, a cheeseburgers, lasagna, ect.

Rest: 7 – 9 hours per night is not a problem. I usually wake up naturally before my alarm goes off.

Activity: I work a desk most of the day with maybe 1 mile of incidental walking.

My Workout:
Mon: Chest
Tues: Arms
Weds: Back and Shoulders
Thurs: Legs
Fri: Chest & Arms
Sat: Off
Sun: Off

I have thick skin, please don’t hold anything back. But I’d ask that you follow-up your criticism with a suggestion to replace what you criticize. Please keep in mind that I’m limited to orals/topicals and legal stuff only. If topical it must be safe for pregnant women to have contact with me and I’d like to retain reproductive function.

Thank you

Welcome! First thing first. Cycling at a higher BF leads to much greater risk of side effects. My advice would be to go and do a little R&D in the nutrition section and let the boys help you out in getting your diet right. You will be amazed how the right foods will work wonders in dropping weight fast. Then hit the exercise forum here and learn the right training program to shred that shit off. Don't get frustrated, cycling at "this" point in time is not the answer. Good luck brother!!
