Hi guys, I'm newbie to the Anabolic side of things but I've been training for a number of years with varying degrees of success whilst previously trying to juggle the social life of a "party animal" and one whom has been travelling the world for the past 4 years.
I always said that I'd delve into this side of things when I finally felt that I needed to and now that I've finally outgrown my youthful desire to burn the candle at both ends but also finding that with my youthful exuberance waning It's also having a knock on effect to my training and I'm not getting the same results I did in my early 20's.
So... My first cycle is a few weeks away from commencing and through years of filtering out "Bro science" and having befriended a few locally well respected body builders and PT's I have all the tools at my disposal to get this show on the road.
I tried to post my first cycle and it was denied due new member restrictions. I'll try to add it as a comment after posting the thread
Supplements I'll be taking during my cycle are below (feel free to advise additions or subtractions)
N-acetyl-L-cysteine
BCAA
Chromium
fish oil
Magnesium
zinc
MCT oil
Multi Vits
creatine monohydrate
Milk Thistle
My diet and training plan are both being prepared for me by a PT friend but It'll be around 1000 calories + over my TDEE as standard.
My main area of guidance required is really for afterwards. I have a month long trip planned to Thailand where I will most certainly indulging in large quantities of alcohol from time to time and maybe not always tracking my macros efficiently or training as much as I would at home. The trip will be around 9 weeks after my last injection. And I'm worried about any negative effects of over indulgence besides the obvious of muscle wastage and fat gain (I'll deal with those when I return home)
Maybe some of you would even advise against doing the cycle prior to my trip altogether.
My stats/body composition are:
Male
32
210lbs
6'3
18% Body Fat
34 inch waist
38 inch hips.
I'm aiming to be 200lbs at the commencement of my cycle I would imagine with body fat closer to 15%.
Any help would be greatly appreciated guys.
Ps. I have drank alcohol once this year and have no intention of doing so again until I go to Thailand.
