Ok, ok, I'm still here. Mid terms at school, so I didn't have much time to post. It's cool that you guys are into this. Updates, I stalled at 180 for about a week. Right now I'm bouncing between 182-184. I'm sick of Tuna an Chicken, but I keep choking it down as I love growing. I'm back on 6 days a week working out, I like it better then 5 days with weds and sun off. I took saturday off this week and hit up my legs today. I have been focusing in on legs a little more. If you want wings to fly you gotta have the wheels first. Also I have been spending closer to 2 hrs in the gym each day, as opposed to my 1 to 1 1/4 hrs. I like to work a little on my legs an abs every day regardless of the muscle group I'm working and I have added in a little more cardio. My heart needs a workout to get used to feeding all this new mass. I will get you guys some pics, I promise. I would like them to be of better quality then the last batch so I'm going to talk my wife into taking them. I will post them asap. Thanks for reading and the words of encouragement.

Oh yeah, small, I shaved down a little for you, I know thats how you like um

[SmallSucks]

Dizzle actually Dupa was the one that said something about the rats in your pits, i just agreed but we both thank you for a little trim down....Keep up the hard work....

[Priapism]

Push him for pix later. Change takes time and nobody wants to put themselves out there with nothing to show. Give him a month or three.

[Puinsai101]

This is a really cool thread bro.....I'm starting my first all test cycle next week so I'm sure you can relate to my intrest in it. The only real difference is I'm going to use test prop and a-bombs for a kicker for the first 4 weeks. Keep it up bro I cant wait to here more.

[DUCATI999]

Dude... nice post I wish you luck
Punisai101, If your going to use prop' I think you can let go of the anadrol cuz you don't need a "kicker" with prop'... it works prety fast you know... good luck on it man :]

[dupa95]

Keep up the hard work bro!!!!!!

[SdiZZle]

Thanks for the words of encouragement guys. I haven't been serial posting because I don't want this thread to get boring. Pretty much everything is the same right now, eat, lift, eat, sleep. Throw in school and work and I am keeping busy. I am still stalled out at 185 lbs or so, but I think I may be gaining muscle/losing some bodyfat as my chest and legs are definately growing. I like what I see in the mirror, thats for sure. I'm off to the gym, chest day- awesome.

I think I'm with priapism on pics, If I hold off until December at end of cycle my gains should be very noticable and more dramatic. And thats really what you guys want to see, before and after, what AAS can do for a first timer.

I am halfway through week 6, and it seems like things are starting to really ramp up. I weighed in at 188lbs yesterday, that is 3 1/2 pounds up from friday. I really feel like I am blowing up, like literally getting bigger after each workout. This is really a cool feeling- still no bad sides. Snowing here today, knew it was coming. By the time the shirts come off next spring I am going to be a monster . I'm loving this.

Thanks for the tip bro, I'll consider it. My main reason for doing that was for the super fast initial gains in stenght and size from the drol.

Keep the udates coming dood. Sounds like your getting really good results so far.

[jnm]

Wow! from 164 to 188 in 6 weeks is awsome. keep up the good work, i'm sure you'll gain at least 30 lbs.. could be the wonders of triple loading for your first shot. you prefer g a l e n i k a s, i r a n i a n, b a l k a n s.....? and whyd you go with test c instead of e? GOOD LUCK!

[SdiZZle]

Thanks dude, my clothes don't fit anymore so I am getting somewhere for sure. I think I may be able to hit 200 ( my BF will be a little high, but thats a different task). As far as you question, I'd like to stick to the rules here my man. I have two questions for you- 1 what country are most illegal immigrants in the US from? 2- what is the most popular science related show on PBS? (look it up if you must) you get the idea. As far as Cyp vs. E, from what I have read they are nearly interchangable, and it was what I could get my hands on easily at the time. Gotta eat/sleep. Later guys.

[jnm]

i'd really like to know how much you woulda put on with dbol included.. you woulda looked like a beast.

[SdiZZle]

I know it, I am still hovering at 190-188. I think I need to really up the calories, or just maintain and try to firm up at this weight. I felt a little overtrained on saturday so I have been relaxing for the past few days. I am already thinking of the next cycle, thinking dbol , test, deca , winny- I don't know, something where I could snag 10 or 15 lbs but get rock solid. My last shot is Dec. 20th, then the PCT begins.

[ThisBigBastard]

I've never heard of someone feeling test cyp kick in during the first week, but hey, good for you if it is..
It's more like a month before you start seeing the full effects. Seems like a placebo thing going on here, but maybe you are a special case.
Either way, good luck.

[SdiZZle]

Didi you read the thread dude? I am on week 7 right now. Of course their is a placebo effect early on that motivates you early on, but I think by week seven the real effects have taken hold.

[SdiZZle]

Still stuck at 188-190. Work outs are going good, but my weights seemed to have stalled as well. I am trying to push more weight, but my reps go down, so I try the same weight, and I get the same reps. I haven't made any "progress" in a couple of weeks. I took 6 days off (to address overtraining if that was the issue) so maybe that will help. Or- maybe my body is done growing for a while. I have been bulking for almost 5 months now, from 153 or so to 188, my body may need a few months off.? I don't know, but I feel good at 188. If I could hit 200 at 5' 6" and get ripped up I would really have something going on then. I don't know- any advice out there?

[SDis623]

Sounds like a plateau.... thats odd?? I dont know how that would happen... Keep us updated!

Sounds like your diet might have something to do with it..... have you been increasing your calorie consumption based on your new bodyweight/lean muscle mass your caloric requirement increases as your bodymass does especially lean muscle...

[SdiZZle]

Yeah, your probably right soulstealer. I have tried to up my calories, but maybe not enough. I guess I should shoot for 4500 - 5000 a day. I had a rough time with 3500 - 4000, so this is going to be rough.

Ya I battle with the same problem.... eating about a pound of food every meal 6 meals a day + PWO shake seems like the most you can eat but remember at this point you dont have to add more whole food just excess calories.... try adding a weight gainer shake in between meals just 100 calories more 5x's a day should be enough...

[SdiZZle]

Well, I ate like a beast all weekend, and boom, 192 lbs today post workout because I forgot to weigh in prior like I always do. I just need to shoot for the 4000-5000 cal range and pack it on. Only about 3 1/2 weeks left on cycle, so I will cram calories and try to squeak in as much mass gain as posible prior to my PCT. Also, I have had some good workouts the past few days, really focusing on the mind muscle connection. What a difference! You can really dial in on a muscle just picturing it doing the work, especially for back muscles as you can't watch them. It seems to help me push out an extra rep or two, just really focusing. I'm still feeling good, I have been trying to crush my rear delt as it was lagging, so thats the latest thing, that and lower pecs.

[SmallSucks]

Dizzle sounds like you have been hitting it pretty hard, so your up 28 pounds ? I would love to see some current pics if you get the time, keep up the work....

[dupa95]

Nice work bro keep hittin it hard Please pics soon!!!!!!!!

[basshead69]

Cool bro Im enjoying this tread but post some pics

[SmallSucks]

actually its not i just wanted to post that...

[basshead69]

Hey bro Im loving this thread but we need some pics dont worry your wife wont catch ya lol

[SdiZZle]

You guys will get your pics soon enough, I only have about 3 weeks left and I will post some pics. My bodyfat is a little high, but I guess eating like an animal for 3 months will do that. I can't wait to cut up and really see what I have going on. I'm really hoping to hit 200, then try to cut down to about 180, but we will see how it all ends up.

[brajosm]

take a month off???? hell no

[SdiZZle]

Who said anything about taking a month off?
If you mean aas then yeah, I'm going to take at least 3 months off, but as far as training, I plan to take about 5-7 days off about 1 week after my last shot, then cut down to 3 days a week lifting until my body adjust to being off cycle.

Here is a question- Cheddanips turned me onto this as he is having the same issue- Why the hell are my hands and feet always going numb? I have to adjust my position while sleeping all the time, or while typing my hands go numb. More annoying then a real problem, just wondering what the cause is.

[SdiZZle]

Ok, I guess this is technically a source check BUT here I go anyway-

who has ordered Clen from Lion? Did you have a good experience? It just seems a little to easy, but maybe it is. As for me no having 100 posts I could shotgun post on the welcome new memebers or the lounge but all of my posts have been real, more then 1 word long. I would really like to incorporate clen into my PCT for some real shredding/ anti-catabolic effects.

S

[SdiZZle]

Ok, here are my measurements right now, all cold, no pump, on my off day

Biceps 16 1/2"
Neck 17"
Chest 43"
Waist 33"
Upper Thigh 24"
Calf 16 1/2"

I need more chest, but there they are.
S

[SdiZZle]

Still at 192, but feeling good. I have really dialed in on my rear delt lately, trying to bring that up. Rear delt and lower chest. I have been slacking on my legs, so they are going to need some attention soon. I just can't get into working my legs like I can the rest. I love working my back and chest, and I don't mind doing my arms, but legs just really seem like a chore. My knees bother me for days after and it seems like I really can't move that much weight vs other people. Who knows, but I do feel great. Still shooting for that 200 mark.

Way to go on the weight gain bro....... but serious legs are super important.... if your knees bother you try dropping the weight switch over to front squats..... Very strict and legpress and avoid extensions/curls...try lunges to burn ya out see how that does ya...

[Valtorian]

[Priapism]

Hey dude - the numb hands thing. Totally normal, and weird. I agree. It happens every time I bulk, and get back on the gainer, and my muscles begin to tighten my skin. My personal opinion is that its purely a physical / functional problem. Simply put, your muscles are expanding and compressing against your veins and bloodflow. I know exactly what you mean about laying in bed and having to constantly sleep with your arms straight. I can't sleep anymore with my arm bent under the pillow. It will go numb in a matter of minutes. I guess that's just the name of the game. When I "cut" and lost a lot of my size, all of that went away. So its purely the pressure against the veins thing. Not sure what the solution could be but I would imagine those guys with monster arms have a problem with this constantly.

-p-

[SdiZZle]

Valtorian- lets see your pics! Read the thread, you will get end of cycle pics in like a week.

Priapism- nice to see your back! I kindof figured that was the deal, simply new mass/pressure on viens and nerves that they are not used to. A little more then a week to go and I feel like a tank. I'm still hovering around 195-192, but thats ok. I cannot wait to get cut up and really show this new mass off. Speaking of that, I would imagine one doesn't want to start cutting right away as this could agrivate the catabolic process. How long should I wait to hit the cardio hard and cut up?

[thai007]

sdizzle sounds like you are doinig really well have read all your post....im about to start a Test e cycle this week. Are you holding alot of water? i was just worrying
