    Ron, I have to ask. Why does almost EVERYBODY say 2 grams protein/pound of bodyweight? You recommend 250 for me, and that's not even 1.5/pound of bodyweight, so are you thinking that 300g/p is maybe too much for me, and that it was inhibiting my leaning out due to too many cals?

    Ron, I have to ask. Why does almost EVERYBODY say 2 grams protein/pound of bodyweight? WHAT THEY DO NOT REALIZE IS EVERYONES PROTEIN, CARB AND FAT NEEDS ARE DIFFERENT. IF YOU BEGIN TO LOSE MUSCLE SIZE/STRENGTH YOU CAN BUMP PROTEIN UP (STARTING AT 50 MORE GRAMS PER DAY)You recommend 250 for me, and that's not even 1.5/pound of bodyweight, so are you thinking that 300g/p is maybe too much for me, and that it was inhibiting my leaning out due to too many cals? YES! HOW MUCH DO YOU WEIGH AGAIN? [/QUOTE]ABOVE

    I'm 185 lbs @ 5'7. Here's a pic of me from a couple weeks before my 20 week blast (which is also my first cycle ever) I think I'm around 15%, what do you think?

    Ronnie...this will be my 1st cycle!!

    What do you recommend my first cycle look like?

    Stats:
    23yrs old
    5'8
    152pds
    15% bodyfat
    3,150 calories just to maintain (physical job)

    And in addition to the cycle you recommend what should I take for PCT?

    Also, should I take Letro 2 weeks in advance of cycle to PREVENT gyno from occuring?

    Thanx for your expert advice in advance!

    and in addition to the cycle you recommend what should i take for pct? first time cycle is always 500 mgs of test e or c per week and the pct has been stated over and over again in this thread. You need to read this entire thread before cycling!
    also, should i take letro 2 weeks in advance of cycle to prevent gyno from occuring? The estrogen rebound from front loading letro may cause gyno, so the answer is a big-no!!!
    thanx for your expert advice in advance!

    How do someone knows if they have reached their maximum genetic potential?

    During deloads is it better to maintain twice a week injection but at 125mg, or just do 250mg once a week is fine? Which one do you prefer?

    With dumbbell lateral raises, and rear dumbbell lateral raises, is it better to stick to 8-10 rep range, or higher rep such as 12-15 is better?

    I think you are good with 250-300 grams of protein per day at 185 lbs. KEEP UP THE NICE WORK!

    Ron, when you "examine" yourself for gyno, how do you know if it's little gyno lumps your feeling or just plain old chest fat accumulated around the lower chest/nipple area??

    Hello im looking to try steroids for the the first time, I do have a regular work out. What im looking for is to bulk out a little and have sharp muscles...
    What would be the best TABLET steroid for me to take as i have seen so many types listed and where can i get these from.

    A link on where to buy these would be great.

    thanks for all your input ronnie, im honestly sorry for bothering you with all these queries but your advice does really help. one thing that really puzzles me is the debate about 500+ grams of protein a day. i weigh 266 so i should be having 400g but ive been recently taking in 600g, i remember reading a piece in dave palumbos q & a and he said that he also experimented with the idea as did alot of pros in his era but he came to the conclusion that anything above 500g was going to waste unless the individuals weight is extremely high. after doing research i did agree with him but i read about kai greene having approx. 700 or 800g of protein likewise derek poundstone and i know that off season kai greene weighs around 350 pounds. all 600g did for me was cause serious stomach upsets. i think that calories are more important when protein hits about 500g. what do you think? thanks again.
