Hello,
The intention of Yoda’s Leaving is to air my thoughts on my cycle and post cycle recovery.
For those of you who haven’t read Yoda’s Stack, and Diary of A First Timer I’ll fill you in. Yoda’s Stack was my Post which listed every possible question I had related to my cycle, months of research had gone into these questions and I wanted to gain as much knowledge as I could. Read it if you haven’t it does raise a lot of questions and answers for the newbie. Mike and OJ contribute greatly which is ideal for the novice.
First Timer was about my feelings as I hit the first week of being chemically enhanced and boy what a week!
Some info:
Big Al
5.10
217LBS
bf 13%
Diet 4000kcal 40% Protein 50% Carbs 10% Fat.
Cycle
1-8
Deca 400mg
Sus 500mg
1-4
D-Bol 40mg ED
Tapered last week
Injected Sunday’s and Wednesday’s 3cc each time (2cc Deca 1cc Sus). Use 21g 1.5 for glutes……….won’t do that again, far to big, stick with a 23-25g. For delts (which I loved) 23G 1.
I tapered the D-Bol, I wouldn’t do that again, and I would run the D-Bol longer, had to wait for the Sus/Deca to kick, and would switch to faster acting esters next time.
Generally Side effects were minimal, acne on shoulders, mild rash that with a topical application would dry up. Slight moods and testy moments but all in A OK. With the D-Bol I started taking the Milk Thistle at the same time, start it before and be safe a 1000mg, I found I had to up it to off-set slight liver pains…….gotta drink water!
In the gym I was strong and focused, out of the gym I was hungry appetite grew considerably. If your in a relationship your g/f friend/wife will not know what to make of your sexual appetite, they can be both offended (cos your not like that all the time) or think what the hell (lets enjoy whilst it lasts!).
Post Cycle

So where am I now:
Yoda’s Leaving
I’m gonna miss Sunday’s and Wednesdays, I clean the work tops in the kitchen, disinfect and lay my instruments in front of me, I love this ritual. It reminds me of a darker time, another place where I had done this before but with items that left me lost.
The syringe loaded for the 20th time I took the shot as I started in the glute, and now it was gone, no more not yet anyway. So where do you go from here, well the last injection yes but not the end surely, the deca and sus from this shot wouldn’t kick in for four weeks, this messes with you mind, when do I start clomid should I throw in Clen now, blah blah blah!
A week passed and I could notice things already, for the last ten weeks there had not been one work out which I hadn’t added more weight, I was stronger than ever and the form was text book. Now no weight increases it took mental energy to just stand still, to lift the weight I had done before was a challenge I would not slip not yet, I took the philosophy I will not be weak, I’ve earned this strength and it was going not now, not ever.
The philosopher is a wise man, if not a little stupid or maybe naïve is fairer!
The many meals, which I had consumed before, had made me bored all of a sudden, god I want something different something nice something edible, fuck tuna I say over and over again. This all an indication that I’m losing appetite, but I persist and force feed myself, I will not lose size, will maybe a little but you’re not having it all back I like not fitting my clothes and being the a big MOFO.
Rest I need more rest, I’ve decided to reduce sessions for a week or two double up some body parts, need some extra rest days. After the mental and physical concentration of ten weeks gear use I needed a rest!
So my normal
Mon Chest
Tue Back
Wed Rest
Thur Legs
Fri Shoulders
Sat Arms
Sun Rest
Becomes
Mon
Tue Chest, Back
Wed Rest
Thur Legs
Fri
Sat Shoulders, Arms
Sun Rest
This will help no doubt.
So we come to clomid, what a debate how to take this stuff. I’ve opted this time round for 300mg day 1, 100mg for ten day and 50mg for ten days. However, I could of gone for 300mg Day 1, 150mg 7 Days, 100mg 7 days, 50mg 7 days.
Personal preference I think, if you are thinking about post cycle then you are taking the right steps to keep your gains.
So with the Clomid comes clen, odd small 0.02mg tabs, but amazingly they are quite effective, feeling odd!
So post cycle Clomid and Clen 2 weeks on 2 weeks off, with some creatine thrown in the clen off period for good measure, if I had the money I get some HMB but I haven’t and unless you think this is good enough to warrant a tub I’ll go without!
So I’m on the road to the recovery, I can expect exceptional loadsand the shakes, what I do for BB.
But how do I feel. Honestly, first off I was glad it was over, it is a mental and physical burden and time off is needed and mandatory. I was tired of shots and the gruelling workouts so it was right. But then comes the down the knowledge that the power and strength that had been part of you was fading, Yoda was leaving and now I feel normal again. I feel dejected and pissed and jealous of you guys still on still growing!
But then I remember me when I was 150LBS, and then I remember me at 224 (my heaviest natural weight) and think 3 months off and I will grow with gear again, but for now I will trained harder, eat better and grow naturally. I will not rely on gear, it can only be a few % in the equation. Mind over matter, I will grow today.
Prepare for your cycle but prepare for after mentally and physically.
It’s not just about the body and the text books, its about how it really affects you, your life and the ones closest to you.
Be Safe
