Thought I would check in on you, its been a while. Sorry to hear about insomnia and hope that subsides soon! Wow I hope to be able to calculate everything like you do one day. You get blood work and know exactly what to change and adjust. Maybe on my next cycle I will get blood work and you can help me break it down and interpret it. So going Sub Q with injections huh. I have heard of this, but just thought if it was going into muscle it would be more effective. Let us know how your blood results read, if test levels are still where they should be. If I did the Sub Q with Test could I use a slin pin or would the oil be to thick to for that? Well best of luck with this beastly cycle!

Days 22 through 43 (6 weeks in):
Quick Note: Sorry for the late update. It's been a ridiculous few weeks and I really haven't had any time for anything other than work and gym. By the time I get back, I just have no energy to update lately. I'll browse around and post in the forums, which is a lot more fun than updating this damn log. But whatever, I'll post here what I can to keep everyone in the loop.
Injections:
Since you already pretty much know my injection schedule you can probably refer to my previous posts. I'm still averaging about 23 CC's. But that's about to increase very soon!! As you know my good old friend MASTERON is coming to visit me for 10 weeks. He should be arriving in a couple of weeks - Let's get this party started! Marbleizing effects: ON! But FUK, I haven't done the math yet but I believe I'll be looking at over 30 CC's per week for the 4 weeks that it crosses paths with the original compounds. My poor muscles are scarred.
Subcutaneous Injections Update:
This, to be honest has been an outstanding experience. Totally discomfort free. Almost tempted to inject more than 1/2 a CC at a time, but the stories I hear about lumping keeps me at bay. Super easy. I prod the area first to make sure it's clear and hit it and done. Super easy and highly recommended. Of course since I haven't done blood work lately I can't speak of the effects on my E2 levels, but from everything I hear, I might be able to lower my AI dose at this stage. I'll have to pick kelkel's brain on that one. But I know the answer... get blood work!
Side Effects:
1. Acne * NEW! * : Well, here it is ass expected around week 6. Acne has finally made it's appearance. But a little unexpected real estate coverage this time. Typically I get some acne on my shoulders and most certainly on my back. This time, however, along with back and shoulders, I'm seeing some acne on my stomach of all things. Really never experienced acne in that area. Nothing major at all, maybe 4 zits total. Just an odd place for me to get acne. Luckily the face is clear as usual. I'll probably introduce accutane @ 10 mg daily starting week 8 or so.
2.Aggression * NEW! * :Aggression decided to show up a few days ago. This is a great thing for me. Please do not confuse aggression with violence or rage, those are not even remotely related. Aggression is a great thing for me, especially at the gym. Nothing seems intimidating at the gym, I can load up bars with plates and feel like a powerhouse and nothing will stop me. As Ronnie would say... "Nothing but a peanut!".
2. Nightmares: This is good news here. Since my last update, I haven't really had any nightmares. Heck I don't even recall any dreams whatsoever. So I'm certainly happy about that.
3. Night Sweats: OK. These sweats are still hanging around, however, it seems to have lessened it's frequency drastically. If you recall I was getting sweats nearly every other day, sometimes several days in a row. This week, for example, I only had 1 night of sweats. This has absolutely made a huge difference in my sleep; as I am able to sleep longer than my previous average of a few hours per night. I feel much better, of course.
4. Insomnia: No change here, still staying up late every night. But at least I'm getting better sleep now that I am not having nightmares and the night sweats have dropped considerably.
5. Headaches: Completely gone. If you check my last couple of updates I had severe headaches and seemed to get better and now they are gone. Hooray!
Diet & Nutrition:
Diet is still clean, TDEE & macro-nutrient conscious. I did however, run into a problem for a week or so when my hired cook had to leave town suddenly. But she is back now and all is good. I had to get pretty creative with what little I had. It was interesting to say the least. I ended up cheating a few times and gearbox chewed my ass out a few times. Not really, well, kinda - but he's been a great support for me and I've implemented much of his advice. So he should be happy to know that I have cut out all cheat meals!! Go ahead GB, pat me on the back!!
In other nutritional news, I've removed Ezekiel bread from my diet. This really sucked but I've managed to increase carbs elsewhere so that's that. Liquid intake has not changed. Still maintaining a gallon of water daily and 3 liters of diet green tea. Get's old really fast but long cycles are boring anyway.
Supplement Updates:
Thanks to Times Roman, who pointed me in the right direction to purchase powders for my Nitric Oxide formula. If you recall, I had a plan to take several compounds but no where on earth could I find them all combined into one. So here is what I did...
Purchased L-Arginine powder
Purchased L-Cystiene powder
Purchased L-Lysine powder
I combined all 3 into capsules to make my own product. This was my greatest accomplishment! lol. Not really, but it saved me hundreds of dollars. Literally. Not to mention, I am now taking 3 tablets daily vs before when I was taking 12 tablets. You just can't beat that! Thanks again, TR.
I gotta tell ya, the pumps I get from these are ridiculous. Not to mention the level of vascularity that appears during a workout.
HOMEMADE NITRIC OXIDE CAPS CURRENT NO LEVELS These are the caps that I made. This is the first batch and should last me quite a while. I have tons of powder left so I can make plenty more. I probably have enough for a couple years! And I paid less than what I would have paid for a 3 month supply had I taken these individually. When I first got these test strips, I was showing no color at all. I had nothing. Gradually started to increase with my supplements and finally got into the normal range. I'm shooting for Optimal however, at 300+. Hopefully soon!
Morning Weigh In:
Shame on me. Haven't been checking daily. But I am happy to announce that I weighed in this morning at 213 lbs. I've never bulked this slowly before. This is quite interesting because I am really able to manage fat gain so much better. As a matter of fact, I have cut back a bit on cardio, which I gotta tell you... feels damn good. I love hitting the weights and going home. Not too shabby @ 13.91 BF %. Remember, my goal is 225 lbs at or less than 11% BF. So I still have until around mid January to reach my bulking goal, at this pace, it should be no problem at all. Then my favorite part kicks in... the CUT! Can't wait. Slow and steady wins the race.
Workout Routine Changes:
As mentioned in my last log I was considering stpete's 3:1 workout protocol. I have finally implemented this a couple weeks ago. I am happy to announce that it has been quite successful for me. It's nice to have a break a day earlier than usual and of course, the ability to hit muscle groups more frequently.
Here is the new workout routine:
Day 1 Chest | Triceps Day 2 Legs | Abs Day 3 Back | Biceps | Shoulders Day 4 OFF
Take note, that I don't hammer on my shoulders as much as most will. My shoulders grow very fast and I have to be cautious with them so I don't look like a synthol freak. This is why it's not a problem for me to incorporate them into an already heavy day.
Changes in Exercise Methods:
Upright Rows: I am no longer using bars for upright rows. When I did use bars, they would take their toll on my wrists. My wrists, especially my left for some reason would turn into Rice Krispies with all the Snap, Crackle & Pop. So now I have switched to Single Arm Dumbbell Uprights.
Thanks to basline_9 for posting the video of Jim Cordova's method. Click here to see the thread containing the video.
--------------------------------------------------------------
Bicep Curls: I have been using a new (new to me) method for targeting the bicep peak. Some refer to it as Standing Concentration Curls or Bent over Curls. This method was quite shocking. I was unable to curl my normal dumbbell weight. Almost cut weight down to 30% ! It puts much more resistance on the muscle and the pumps are far better than standard curls. Wow, very impressive. I'll never go back. The idea is that you grab a dumbbell while standing, lean down and curl sideways from the bottom up. You have got to try this.

Final Thoughts:
It's been quite a hectic few weeks for me at work. It has completely consumed me and there is still more to come! Luckily I've managed my time well enough to maintain enough time at the gym and stay on my injection schedule. Unfortunately the log suffered with a lack of updates. But hey, I'm still here!
To add to the chaos, I've been hanging out with a new broad that seems to really get my attention. Needless to say, Liquid Cialis is in use with full force!! haha - having a great time with her but it's been very difficult on my diet. You know how it is when you start going out with someone and it's still in the early stages where you're both allover each other. I've been going out with her, eating out, etc... certainly not good for diet but I am being as careful as possible. It's so easy to order food and really never a chance of it being good for you. So I've been sticking to salads with no dressing, steaks, sweet potatoes, etc...
Anyway, I had a fun incident at the gym the other day. I was getting ready to incline press a pair of dumbbells. So I picked up a pair of 120's and threw them on my knees. I take a deep breath, kick my right knee up and then the left. I knew something was wrong right then when my left arm started veering to the left. To avoid injury I dropped it. I was kinda pissed so I asked a fellow gym goer to help me. Incredibly rare that I ask for help, but I wasn't going to let that dumbbell get the best of me. So I asked a guy about my size to help push my elbows together once I kick them up in the air. I only need help with the 1st lift, after that I can fly on my own.
Well, I kicked them up in the air and the idiot is barely putting any pressure on my elbows. I said "Push bro, push!". Fuking shit, I dropped them again. Really dude? Whatever... I just said I would pick up the 100's. To my surprise, I get a juice-head nod from a couple benches away. I just shook my head in disappointment. So he walks over and says come on... one more try... I said fuk it, why not. So I kick up the 120's and this beast grabs my wrists and pulls them up and let's go. I was set. Pushed 7 reps and dropped them. I really gotta get that shoulder fixed. So now I have a spotter I can trust. Very cool cat by the way. He is running a gram of each tren and test. Both short esters.
Well that just about does it for this update. Again I apologize for the lack of updates and I will certainly try to do better going forward.

Nice update!
Ever thought of doing cables for upright rows? May help out the wrists some.
Seems like the new thing is subQ test shots, when I get my BF lower, I plan on putting together a cycle.

Excellent write up as usual! Id rather you be late than not update at all bro!
I'm unable do the SubQ yet. My friend tried it and ended up with two large lumps that he needed antibiotics to reduce the inflammation. Maybe ill revisit that protocol later on down the road.
Im glad to hear that your sides have diminished a bit and are giving you a break. Not getting enough sleep can be a major setback on your hard work.
I watched the two vids and will incorporate them both this wk. Thanks for the links.
Next update, you be engaged..

Worst thing ever (not really, but almost) is having a spotter that is clueless. When going heavy, that first rep takes the most out of you and it is crucial that the spotter does almost as much work (if not more) than you on that first rep when getting them up and set up.
Good job on the 120s man!

By the way, I couldn't find the link to the video on the curl for a peak bicep. When I click the link, it just brings me to your week 6 update post. My genetic gifts are NOT in my bicep peak... :-/ so any help would be awesome.

PRed... Hahahahaha. Sorry. That is me forgetting I'm typing that in. PRed = P Red. Also known as personal record. I added the "ed" to show past tense.

Hey Austinite, What is your take on the Nitric Oxide? Have read a little about it but haven't heard any solid testimony yet, what do you think?
-
11-17-2012, 02:11 PM #360
I love it. As you see I made my own. NO will boost endurance, sex, alertness and blood circulation. Although temporary, the pumps and vascularity during a workout are always nice and encouraging. Keeping your NO levels at or above 300 is only a good thing. Studies have shown to increase memory by boosting communication intra-cellularly (brain, nerves, etc...)
