Whatsup y'all!

So I'm in week 2 of a 12-week cycle that consists of the following:

D-Bol - 40mg/day for 6 weeks
Test E. - 500mg/week for 12 weeks


My stats:

Age: 31
Height: 6'3"
Weight: 220
BF: ?

I've been back in the gym for six months after a long hiatus. This is only my second cycle, my first being a Deca-only cycle in 2003 that lasted 10 weeks. Contrary to popular opinion, I kept my sex drive and erections during that cycle and gained about 20 pounds of muscle, 15 of which I kept. In 13 years of training, I've spent about six of them training properly, and the rest...well, let's just say there's been some costly breaks where I lost all my strength and lots of muscle too.

So six months into my comeback I decided to do a cycle. I've always been an ectomorph and used to be super-skinny. I had a lot of trouble putting on muscle and maintaining it during the years I was training. Lately, my metabolism slowed down and I started to gain weight. I decided to start working out again and six months in I've put on some poundage and lost much of the definition I used to have in my mid-section. But that's okay for now! I'm just trying to gain as much muscle as possible and if I gain some fat in the process, I can work it off later.

I've decided to include two photos taken just before I started my cycle. These were taken at rest, no pump, and give you a fairly good idea of my upper-body's size and proportions going in to the cycle:







I had to take these photos myself so it was tough to hit more than this one pose. Next time I'll get someone to take pics from different angles. I'm going to post new progress shots every month, so the next ones will be in 2.5 weeks.

The D-bol is working its magic. I've gained fifteen pounds already, but I've been eating much more than usual. I don't believe this is all water weight either because I'm taking .5mg of Ariimidex every day and don't feel bloated at all. My strength gains have been decent, but nothing extraordinary. Still waiting for the Test to kick in.

I know I should have waited to start this cycle. Six months back in the gym isn't really enough time and I could have gained more muscle and strength before I went on the gear, but I had the $ now, so I decided to use it while I could, and it's bloody hard to just sit on the stuff, so I'm doing it. Hopefully it will be a good cycle and others thinking about doing the same cycle for the first time can see the results first-hand.

peace,
