Well i've only done one cycle of test/deca and since then i've been training naturally and have decided to stay away from the gear for at least 5 or 6 years.

I have beginning pictures, pictures after my cycle, and pics from a few weeks ago. The cycle ended in december of 06 so i've been off and training naturally going on 4 months now trying to lose some bodyfat and maintain some mass.

very mature of you to realize that you should hold off on gear. keep at it.

yeah I plan on staying clean for a few years...will probably use some IGF-1 here and there in 4 weeks increments, but other than that it will be clean bulking with consistent cardio to try and get down to 8 or 9% BF and stay there.

nice man keep up the hard work! i definately see a lot of gains

**Lexed** · 04-23-2007, 05:53 AM

lol I thought you where way older because of the body hair thats why I didnt understand the part where you kept saying you would stay away from steriods until a couple of years

**1zach4** · 04-23-2007, 09:03 AM

haha that isn't the first time i've heard of the body hair...i've been able to grow a beard since I was 14

Thanks for the compliments

Anyone have any comments on areas I need to work on etc...I don't have any pics up of my legs because i'm currently not training them due to a knee injury that is almost healed and then i'll be back at it.

definate drop in bf % in the last set of pics. good decision on stayin away from gear for a while...i would just say to try to drop the bf further and get the abs to come in.

**1zach4** · 04-23-2007, 10:37 PM

they have come in a lot in the past week, so new pics will be up here in a few weeks for sure

any other comments/suggestions?

**number twelve** · 04-24-2007, 12:20 AM

nice improvements especially in the last pics, i would say that you should just try to continue building everything naturally like you suggested

**1zach4** · 04-24-2007, 10:30 AM

thanks for the compliments. I hope to be 215lbs and sub 10%BF by winter this year, I don't plan on "bulking" anytime soon because I was not pleased with all of the bodyfat I held when doing it the first time.

I would say work on the chest and arms a bit. Do you have any gyno? It looks a little like it from the pics. All in all, great transformation I would say.

**nalbano34** · 04-24-2007, 10:39 AM

It also looks like you got more domestic...that bed is a mess in the first pics, but post cycle, well see for yourselves.

**1zach4** · 04-24-2007, 10:55 AM

haha I see what you're saying...the only reason it's like that is because the girlfriend made the bed for me that day. I've never had an issue with gyno, I believe it's just fat still on my chest in those pics.
