42 Y.O. 5'9", 170#, 12~%
Training weights and cardio off and on for 10 + years, going from fit to fat, to fit again.
Me, before I started training "seriously" in about 2002. I'm about 150-155 lbs. here
Safe to say about a year or so ago, at 195 pounds, I looked like an overweight under-fit 40-something couch-potato. I will NOT post pix, I don't want to scare any little ones.
AAS HISTORY:
1 previous cycle Test-E 14 wks. Tren-A 8 wks. AUG to mid NOV, 2011
PCT was Nolva, Clen and HCG via Swifto's advice postings.
Early DEC post cycle, 2011
My 1st CYCLE was 14 weeks of Test-E, with 8 weeks in the middle of Tren-A. My results (IMHO) were absolutely spectacular. Simply gaining or losing "weight" is relatively easy for me, but my ability to gain lean mass and lose BF was nearly impossible before, yet VASTLY increased and enhanced via AAS. My body weight stayed within 3-4 pounds, but I leaned up quite significantly, and added some super-HARD new muscle!
My diet was pretty good before 1st cycle, and I dialed it in with advice here right before I started. I had been training 5 days/wk. for 6 months prior and was close to my personal fitness best. Like I said, I kept my weight of 176-ish, but leaned up from about 18% - 20% BF to about 12-14% - SWEET!
Currently, FEB 8, 2012
I plan to lose another couple pounds before my new cycle. In PCT over the past couple months, I've lost about 6 pounds, but AFAIK, it's all been fat loss. I'm significantly leaner and more muscular than before, and as lean as I've been since my teens - yet 30 pounds heavier! My guess is that I'm about 12% BF currently. I almost feel like I'm 20 again physically.
My GOAL is LEAN mass with little or no fat gain. If I can put on 5-8 pounds of LBM, and keep or lower my BF%, (10% or less would be awesome!) I will consider this cycle successful. I will post pix, edit, and list progress/complications/adjustments here as I go along. I've found that keeping stats/diary is invaluable.
I've been training hard 6 days weekly through my PCT. The final 2 weeks before my new cycle, I will "De-Load" by reducing my weight lifting to just a few light sets per bodypart. I may even take the final week away from weight training all together. I will continue with my typical 30 minutes interval-cardio, post-workout always.
