Day 38 Off

Thats it... no gym, no cardio, just cooked all day.

[bikeral]

Day 39 223lbs

Woke up at 223lbs. Ate out yesterday Skirt steak/Rice/Beans
By Wednesday weight should be stable for real reading.

Still sticking with 3000-3100 cals as weight is still increasing. I've been eating more sweet potatoes which are real good just nuked or boiled. Nice break from all the brown rice. (I still eat brown rice 2x day)

No sign of Deca doing anything at 5.5 weeks. Hope its not crap bunk gear.

Feeling good. The test seems to be good since libido is up and in the beginning the boys were shrinking before I switched HCG . I've been reading Deca takes a long time. Hopefully another week I will see results.
Have you used Deca before? First time for me so I really do not know what to expect.

yes, i have used it twice

once when i was younger and dumber. had great gains (test 200mg/EW and deca 300mg/EW for 10 weeks) no PCT (like i said, young n dumb)

other time was a about 3 years ago, was trying to heal some injuries (joints felt great!)

i always felt the test over anything else. maybe it will take some more time, hopefully not bunk stuff!

[bikeral]

Thanks, hope so.

Day 41

Well I had some kind of 24hr stomach bug starting yesterday around 11AM and finally feeling better around noon today.
Missed gym and a few meals yesterday and today I've only had some cereal with protein powder. Hope to make it to gym soon to make up yesterdays workout.

[JohnnnyBlazzze]

223 sounds solid! I'm going to work my way up to that area next.

Don't you love bulking? You can get away with sooo much more food wise as compared to cutting strict diet.

Not to mention your lifting and training are more aggressive on bulking diet.

Man, I'll take bulking over cutting any day of the week. Next time I cut which will be at least 3 months after this cycle will be quick 6-8 week strict cut and back to maintenance. No more 6 month cuts for me. Just leads to cheating and no progress. Think I'll try to carb cycle next cut.

Well after spending 18 hrs in bed with a stomach virus I thought today's workout would be half assed. Nice surprise after my 10 mins elliptical started feeling good and had a great workout. Even got in 45 mins Incline treadmill post workout. Have not done that after legs for a long time.

[--->>405<<---]

6 weeks 15lbs looks like u have hopefully kept ur gains relatively lean!

[bikeral]

Yea that's for sure. I am happy about that so I will not go too crazy. Cheat meals now consist of steak with decent sides like rice and beans. No pizza or fried food. Just good bulking food, maybe a bit higher in fat than normal and a few extra calories but that is it.

Day 44 Sat Off
Day 45 Sun Chest/Biceps
Day 46 Mon Legs

Well not much to report. Cycle still going well, woke up today 219.6 lbs. Hit legs so hard last night I left in a daze and forgot to hit calves.
Perhaps do calves/cardio tonight since I am off.

Went out for dinner with 2 other couples Saturday night. One of my wives nosy friends asked my wife if I am using AAS. I guess that is good since I can't really see difference when I look in mirror.
I guess I should post pics soon. TBH I have not because I do not think I'm looking very good.

[RaginCajun]

You should have told your wife's friend that you are on hormone therapy and see what kind of reaction she gives.

It's always harder for us to judge ourselves so congrats on the compliment! We still need to hear it just like woman do!

Keep it up bud!

al whats up man! hows the cycle going? ur in week 8 now. have u had any neg sides at all?

[bikeral]

Not really. Some minor acne between my pecs is all. I think running the aromasin 10mg EOD has controlled E well. HCG is keeping boys around.
Started low dose DBol Thursday and weight has gone up since then. I guess the DBol retains water cause it's 4lbs in 3 days.
Weighed in today at 224 lbs

[--->>405<<---]

pretty good al with no sides! i wanna see some before after pics at some point

[bikeral]

There will be pics....

At some point.

[--->>405<<---]

how u feeling about ur progress aesthetically?? are u getting the bang for ur buck like u thought u would and would u recommend running a cycle.

[GirlyGymRat]

Howdy and hope all is going well with you!

I believe things are going well. One of my biggest issues is after losing 80lbs at 47 years old the skin has become loose in many areas including arms, legs, and the worst is midsection. My arms and legs are filling out so that should look better. Thankfully midsection is holding out without getting bigger. Definitely worth it to me. Last time I tried to bulk natty I just got fat. I guess at my age natural test is just too low to increase muscle size. I never had issue with this when I was younger. Seems like no matter how much I eat now the weight goes to the right places and not the gut. My main goals were to get my legs bigger and tighten the skin a bit. Both goals seem to be getting there. I still have a long way to go.

pics or it didn't happen

I know, I know... This week after good pump at gym I'll race home and get some shots in.

Howdy and hope all is going well with you!

All is great SM. So glad you are back.

[--->>405<<---]

sounds like things are going well for u al

being able to eat and have the advantage of optimal nutrient partitioning im sure u are enjoying thoroughly!
