    Day 61

    Woke up this morning weighing 85kgs again! I think I'm stuck so I'm gonna review my diet again today and add more calories. Today will be a rest day because I have thursday off of work and can make up a session. I'll eat a carb meal probably at meal 4 today. I'm also due for a pin tonight.

    Day 61

    Turns out I didn't have this thurs off of work this week so I ended up training tonight. Today I've decided to reduce cardio and will be doing 20 mins of cardio instead of 30. Just finished shoulders and abs, I was so tired I needed pre workout to make it to the gym!

    Seated db shoulder press 6 sets pyramided (max was 35kgs 10 reps, 37.5kgs 6 reps both with a spot)
    Seated smith machine military press 4 sets pyramided
    Side lateral raises 4 sets pyramided
    Single side lateral raises on cable machine 4 sets high volume

    Fit ball crunches 4 sets
    Crunches 4 sets
    Side crunches 4 sets each side

    Weights took 49 mins plus 20 mins cardio

    Going well mate. I just got back from Melb, went through that 40" day, Not used to Melb being hotter than Syd See how you go for anther 5 days or so with reduced cardio. Then either try upping cals or dose.

    Looks like a good cycle so far. Remember you can blast the HCG at the end to get a speedy testicle recovery while the test is clearing. You can also do 500iu twice a week as soon as you get it. Then do the Clomid/Nolva combo. Have you gotten any testicular atrophy and if so does your gf say anything about it or increase in sex drive? Great work.

    Day 62

    Woke up this morning weighing 85.5kgs! I'm happy to still be gaining a bit of water retention is back around my stomach area but I won't dose liquidex again unless I get sore nipples. Maybe I need a decent amount of estrogen in my system to keep growing but it's a controversial topic. I plan on hitting legs and lower back tonight then having 2 rest days.

    Also for the past week I've been using 4g's of udo's choice oils in my night time shake and dropped 2 fish oil caps. So instead of 4g of fat it's more like 6g.

    Starting weight was 74kg wasn't it? Over 10kg (22lbs) weight gin is a damn good result in my book - and right through Christmas/NY holidays!

    That water retention is a balancing act hey. Needless to say watch your salt...

    A few more days to go. What a great log ;0)

    Woke up weighing 85.4kgs. Today is a rest day. Gonna sit at work and grow added basmati rice to meal 2 and 3 today to get away from oats and brown pasta for a change. Each meal has 40g worth of carbs. Working my 2nd job tomorrow so I'll bring in 3 or 4 50g carb meals and load up tomorrow.

    Great job man keep at it and don't loosen up.....did u notice how u think at the beginning of the cycle that u can reach any weight u can but then it slows down??? As this exactly what happened to me as I reached 85.7 kg at peak I thought I'd be 90+ kg but I ended it 83.5 dropped two kg of fat as I noticed I'm only getting fatter post 86 kg it needs really big adjustments in diet that for me was verry difficult to eat that much clean food .
    Hope u can do better

    I still hope it's possible to put a few more kgs on before i finish up. I did think it would slow down but only if I didn't keep increasing calories. But even at 4k calories I would habe thought I'd still be gaining but I've slowed down.

    I asked in your log how many calories you were consuming. Also what was your macro break down?

    Day 64

    I woke up this morning weighing 85.4kgs. I had a 10 hour shift today at my 2nd job and because it was phyical I ate breakfast plus 4 50g carb meals to go along with 70g protein. Today I felt like I smashed the food! Hope I put some mass on

    Also I would like to report that my chest has been cramping the last couple of days. It's kind of like what my quads were doing a few weeks ago until I gave them a bit of a stretch after training.

    Ps. I'm really tired as I'm posting this!

    Day 66

    Woke up this morning weighing 85.5kgs. I had a slight headache this morning so I ate meal 1 at 8.20 am and took some panadol. Had a coffee at 9.30am and headed to the gym before work. Felt really fatigued and sick when I got to the gym. Did 4 sets of chins and kept burping up breakfast. When I finished chins I ran to the toilet and almost puked! I stopped training and went home.. I suspected maybe food poisoning or some shit because it's been almost 4 hours since I had meal 1 and I'm still not hungry. I'm at work and about to try force some food down (chicken and basmati). If it is food poisoning which I've had before, I'm not looking forward to shivers later on! Only time will tell!

    I forced down that meal at 12.30pm and it's now 3.30pm. I've got a headache, stomach cramps, chills and body aches. Food poisoning! It's either the batch of chicken I have or the beef mince I made. The batch of chicken is from last night so more likely to be that as the meat I've almost finished over the last few nights. My appetite is gone so I'll probably force down a protein shake soon and might have to throw all that chicken away!

    Around 4pm I started to feel body aches and chills then a couple hours later had a fever. Haven't been eating much either.

    If this weight stays the same or slight change I'd consider upping your dose to 500-550pw. It would be better to run a higher dose and do shorter cycle than to keep running the same dose and stay same weight. If you don't want to eat more drop 2 cardio sessons a week. If you can add some brown rice or sweet potato early in day somewhere and more protein PWO and a few more fish oil caps in the PM. If weight is not going up its either not enough cals or you need to increase dose. Don't forget you're almost 10kgs more now than when you started. With a higher dose your body will actually be even more efficient at processing nutrients so you should probably gain with only slight change in cals.

    Thanks for all the tips bro! I've got a few weeks left and have come down with food poisoning but hopefully I'll be back on track in a few days and make some changes that you've suggested.

    Hey bud when you do PCT remember the most important thing is getting your balls firing again! So you can blast HCG while waiting for the test to clear. 1,000iu EOD if you have enough HCG. Then start the Clomid and Nolva to get the pititary back online. If you get the HCG before PCT run it 500iu twice a week.

    How much longer do ya have? How your overall sense of well-being during the cycle, minus the recent bad spout of course!

    Day 67

    After hardly eatin yesterday I woke up weighing 85.2kgs. Today I'm feeling a bit better but my head still slightly hurts, stomach hurts a bit and no hardly any appetite. I'm sticking to dry foods because shakes are making me wonna throw up and I can't even look at chicken or meat!

    I discovered that a few of my home made lean meat balls weren't cooked all the way through so this was definitely my own fault!

    I left work early today at 3pm and I have hardly eaten. I couldn't drink my breakfast without feeling like I was gonna vomit so on the way home I decided to get some food that I could eat over the next day or so that I be able to keep down. Ts probably better that I eat something than stick to my diet and eat nothing. So I got bananas, grapes, peaches, plums, protein bars, bread and other ingredients for sandwiches.

    I've probably got about 3 weeks left and I've ordered 5000iu of HCG. I hope it come through! I've felt unbelievable especially while training during this cycle. Apart from the last few days when I've had food poisoning!

    My stomach is feeling better since I started on the fruit yesterday afternoon and today my headache seems to have settled but my brain/head still feels like its been fried from that high fever on Sunday night. Woke up weighing 84.3kgs. Today I'll try eat a bit more but still not good enough to hit the gym.

    Day 69

    Woke up this morning weighing 84.7kgs. I stared eating small meals again yesterday throughout the day. This morning I tried to eat my normal meal 1 and it was just too much food for one go. Still full and it's been 3 and a half hours! Think it's going to take a few more days until I can eat my normal diet again. Also still felt a bit out of it this morning so I dunno when I'll get back in the gym

    That sucks mate. Maybe try to use from now on to really rip up(lower your carbs), as you'll prob put on a little fat when you stop and you'll most likely not be doing any cardio during PCT(well I wouldn't recommend it anyway)
