Heres the deal guys I'll try to keep it short and sweet with a little background of myself maybe you can approve of this or lead me in the right direction.
On monday I start my Epistane cycle possibly bridged with Superdrol
with "Black Ice" as my ECA for my cut into the summer.
SD weeks 1-3 20mg
Epistane Weeks 3-6 30mg
Eca 25mg before a.m cardio/25mg during lift.
Age: 19
Height: 5'10 1/2
Bodyweight: 198
Bodyfat: 15-17% (Top 2 abs visible with fat stores predominately from lower chest, lower abdoman region and lower back.)
-Goal over the next 6-8 weeks is to keep as much muscle mass as possible while on this, perhaps maybe gain some while losing as much fat as I can.
- The goal is clear here. Lets just say im carrying 35 pounds of fat which would be 17.5 percent that means im carrying lets just say roughly 160 pounds of LBM Muscle. The goal is do get to 10 percent at a given weight....lets say 185 pounds. If I lose 20 pounds of fat during my cutting cycle and gain 5 pounds of muscle I would be at a weight of 185 pounds with 15 pounds of fat....leading me to
Age:19
Bodyweight:185
Bodyfat: 10% (36 existing pounds of fat - 20 pounds lost) Remember this is roughly.
I know routines dont really make or break you when it comes to cutting but coupled with the upcoming cycle I want to maximize fat loss and maybe perhaps muscle gain. This is what I propose:

- I know this sounds like overtraining....But I think with the compounds my body can handle it.
- If anybody has any ideas throw them at me I'm all ears.
Cardio:
A.M Elliptical or Incline Walking 45 minutes 4-6 days a week.
PWO cardio for 20 - 30 minutes.
Someone used this as apart of their cut and had GREAT results. Maybe I can do it a diffent way, that I dont know which is why im asking for help.
These are some current lifts which can possibly give you a better picture to where I am and help me devise something.
Current Varios Lifts:
Flat bench Barbell
195x12
205x10
215x8
225x6-8 (10 fresh) (Which leads me to believe I should start at a 10 rep lift and work my way down...but remember I want to burn fat so the extra reps are beneficial to my caloric expenditure)
245x3-6
275x1
Deadlift
225x12
255x10
275x8
315x6
365x3

This is what my diet will look like - Remember plan here is to drop as much fat as possible and become as schredded as I can be over these 6-8 weeks. Gaining huge amounts of muscle is not the goal so keep that in mind.

-It's a total of 2,000 calories. I figure it will be closer to 2,200-2,300 becuase of mis-measuring and veggies that I dont include.
-I know alot of you guys will say it's low but this has been pretty much my current diet for the past few months and I know my body and even with this lack consistency and the occasional booze and cheat meal I still managed to not lose a pound and at times gain weight.
