Hello all.
Just wanted to introduce myself.
I'm in my early 40's and I've been a trainer for over 20 years. I tried a few cycles in my early 20's and had massive shoulder problems that have haunted me ever since. To this day I have no idea why I thought benching over 315 was so damn important to me. It's just an arbitrary number but at the time it seemed to be the only important thing.
I also had some issues with post-cycle. Being broke as most young'uns are, I never could afford post cycle therapy, so I went through depression, mild gyno, etc. I did Sustanon a few times, and also did Deca. If I knew then what I know now about training (I know, very cliche), I would have avoided all the injuries and still gotten a fantastic physique. I am very fortunate to have good genetics. I can still see abs at 20% bodyfat, not that I want to hang around at that level!
Right now I weight about 190. At my peak in my 20's I was about 210 with about 7% bf. I have NO interest in achieving that again. In fact, I really don't want to gain weight. My bf is around 16%. I gained a little weight this year after moving in with my girlfriend who cooks for me all the time. When she moved in I was pretty happy with my body at 175 and about 8-10% bf. My pants went from 30" to 34"... Not acceptable. 34" is my standard turn-around point through my moderate ups and downs.
My workouts aren't as frequent as they used to be. My work is VERY physically demanding though, so I do manage to get in a lot of activity in spite of myself. When I do workout I am very good at doing what I can to work around my injuries. I would just KILL to have my shoulders back! I miss having nice delts! The nice thing is that I'm very naturally mesomorphic, was an athlete for a long time (track, wrestling, gymnastics, martial arts, mt bike racer, etc), so I maintain my shape very well. My proportions are pretty even and symmetrical. Very moderate effort and half-assed discipline with my diet and I usually cut down pretty well.
My goal is only a little different. I just want to get ripped back down. I don't care so much about my weight. The thing that has changed on my body is chest fat. I have minimal love handles and can still see my abs clearly, but I seem to have lost that nice deep line from my delt that swept to the middle of my chest. My skin actually dimples a little on my side! My ribs and lats also have a thick layer. So this time I'm on a mission to lose it once and for all! I have some nagging tendinitis that I want to have cleared up too. If I put on a little extra muscle in the process I won't mind, but my days of worrying about my arm girth are behind me. I just want to look dense and lean, along with having nice even proportions.
So, it's been about 15 years since my last cycle. Now I'm going to do a light cycle, mostly to help with some minor injuries and also to drop some body fat. I have Oxandrolone (generic Anavar--100 10 mg tabs). I'm not sure how much I should take and how to space it out. It is the first oral I have ever tried. Today I took 20mg when I woke up, and I took 10mg about 4 hours later. I was thinking that I should probably take up to 50mg daily.
I also have 50 tabs of clebuterol. Again, dosage is a question for me. Another thing to consider is that I take Adderal and Celexa, and I'm not sure if there are any contraindicating side-effects that I should be aware of. Obviously main stream docs and med literature cannot help me. They just give the ass-covering advice to NOT take anything else.
Being older, wiser, and having better means, I can now afford proper post therapy. I know that I supposedly don't need it for something as mild as anavar, but I don't want to take any chances so I stocked up on Tamoxofin, and Clomid. Again, so exactly sure when to start either, or how much. I'm not sure at what level I start to effect FSH, LH and my natural T production, so knowledgeable advice on that would be great.
I have 50 Tamox and 30 Clomids. In my limited knowledge I know that I should probably be doing something DURING the cycle. So, when do I start each, and what dosage?
Hope this lengthy debut post is well-received. Your help would be so deeply appreciated.
