competition and cycle

[pasha]

So i decided i want to compete in January. I am currently on week 5 of a test prop only cycle. so end of this month and December would be my PCT. But competition is in January... Any suggestions on how to look amazing on stage in January? My cycle was well planed i just did not plan on competing, that is why I'm kinda in this situation not knowing what to do. my stats are 6 foot, 210 pounds, about 12%BF.. I would be competing in physique so i would try to get as shredded as possible and drop weight. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated on how to go on stage looking shredded and hard?
Thanks!!

You are going to have to run other compounds to get the look you want.

Yea i understand. But i don't think its a good idea to run test prop for lets says 4 months with other compounds... so was just seeking solutions that some might have from experience with this. I am 5 weeks in of test prop, so how can i maintain a good solid, hard look by competition time in january?

16 week is a long time, PCT may be harder this way.

I did about 20 weeks of pinning EOD and it get old very fast...(im cruising so no PCT for me)
but if you gotta do it then do it.

if you are able.to get lean enough for the comp ou could do mast for the last 8 weeks and winstrol or var for the last 4 weeks.

it would gives you a shredded and hard look.

Thanks for the input. Yea this is only my 2nd cycle. i am not too sure if it would be a good idea to run prop for 16 weeks. plus some other compound. Bases on knowledge and experience, would i recuperate ok?i know it vary from person but just in general...
Thanks

Do you have to do this competition in January? Could you do another one instead in the Spring? Sounds like it would be a smarter option.

we cant know if you will recover fine...
every cycle is playing russian roulette, I lost at my first round...
I know a dude that abuse recreationnal drugs + massive amount of steroids + several other prescription drugs for 2 years and recovered perfect to his previous BW.

some are blessed some arent.

but check it this way.
being shut down for a 12 weeks test-e. most recover fine.
those adding deca run test-e 14 weeks and lots recover fine and im not a fan of deca recovery wise.

so test 14 weeks would be recoverable therefor 16 weeks should not be that bad...

and nor masteron nor winny/var are 19nor so they shouldnt fvck your recovery much.

I believe you will be fine but thats a risk.
but if you really want to do that comp then the risk worth it.

and winstrol does increase vascularity and hardness... even at 15%bf it was noticeable
i have no experience with mast yet.

good luck keep us posted on your progress

2x..

U have to plan ur cycle around ur show..

[Haydenz]

Im doing a 19 week comp prep at the moment, im on test E, NPP and EQ for 10 weeks then tren a and p for 9 weeks.

It comes down to this and this only...

How MUCH do you want to win?

If you just want to get up there and see if you enjoy it, jump on test e then see how your bf% is at 6/8 weeks out, then swop the drugs for something else with a short ester with less water.

If you want to WIN, my friend, prepare for EOD/ED injections.

[pasha]

Yes i understand that it is best to plan the cycle around the competition. and no i don't have to compete. Ill just decide if i wanna extend this cycle longer up to competition or wait it out. Haydenz your cycle sounds amazing, good luck on your competition, and thanks for your input.

[Haydenz]

Thanks bud, if you decide to go through with it, send me some private messages and ill take a look at what your doing and your thoughts, best of luck brother.
