2011/12 Summer Test Enanthate Cycle Log

[adamjames]

wow great gains bro, im starting a propionate course in the next couple of months for the first time and deciding wether or not to run anti e? would you say the arimidex you ran kept the water retention at bay? i might just leave it out for my first course and see how it goes. My diets clean and i do a fair amount of cardio so shouldnt be too much of a problem but i dont want moon face or anything, your gains look solid and hard would you attribute that to the anti e you ran?
cheers

[boxa06]

Great job !!! Switch up cardio sesh for better results

Thanks! What do you mean switch up cardio? As in style or cardio or machine? I stick to LISS cardio but did you mean HIIT or something?

Thanks mate! Is it gonna be your first cycle? If so I wouldn't run an ai unless you get sides. I didn't need it and ate clean and had minnor water retention. I got more water retention on my first cycle which was test prop but I ate everything. I think diet will determine how you'll look more than an ai.

Day 113

PCT day 12

Woke up this morning weighing 84.3kgs. I couldn't believe my weight this morning! Yesterday I smashed down 8 meals. First 5 with carbs then had an hour sleep lol then egg white shake with a protein bar and headed out for a massive dinner! 2 souvlaki (250g cooked weight each) chicken and lamb plus pitta bread and Greek salad. That meal would have been 1k calories on its own. Then casien before bed. I'm shocked by the weight drop! I just did a quick calculation and I ate 4246 calories yesterday. All from oats, oat bran, wholemeal pasta, pita (only 1 meal), chicken breast, tuna, lamb and egg whites.

After today's morning weigh in I added 20g more carbs to my breakfast plus brought in 4 40g carb meals (220g chicken, 133g wholemeal pasta). I'm gonna carb up today as it is another rest day before my 5 day training cycle which starts tomorrow.

Fark Bro sounds like you doing everything you can to hang on to that weight gain. Have you dropped the clomid completely? If so, i'm interested to know how you recover.

Yeah its my 1st cycle, my diets clean as hell but ill be on around 400 grams carbs daily and ill have 1 cheat day in there aswell for my 1st course as its a pure bulker, ill see how it goes without the anti e like you say and im also leaving out hcg for the 1st cycle although some are advising taking it at a small does throughout my entire 7 month course, may throw it in on my second phase once i know what sides to expect.....cheers

Hey bro yea trying to hold on! I dropped the clomid altogether.. I'm gonna replace it with torem next pct.

Day 114

PCT day 13

Woke up this morning weighing 84.3kgs. I've eaten so much food the last few days and dropped weight. I guess it's only been 2kgs and is to be expected on discontinuing AAS. I'm changing the routine up from today and it's gonna be..

Quads, hams, calves
Delts, tri's
Back, traps, rear delts
Chest, bi's

So I'll kick it off today with legs. Gonna have a couple meals before I get in the gym today!

[adamjames]

yeah shes full on alright, ill add hcg into the mix at some point either week 8 or week 18 to keep the little boys firing, wanna see how the test treats me for at least the 1st 8 without hcg and hopefully without anti e. What you got planned for your next course?

[little men]

almost 2 weeks in to pct id say the weight loss is minimal, should stablizise over the next week, i dont think you will go lower than 83kg to be honest, good luck. on a side note my pct going well, libido is back, running torem, nolva, clen, d aspartic with tribulus

looking forward to seeing your overall kept gains after pct, i will update my log in 3 weeks with a post pct pic

Yea good idea and maybe take a higher dose of HCG towards the end to help with PCT. Next cycle I'm either gonna add another compound but more likely just to do test e again on its own but higher dose can't wait!

Yea I don't think I'll drop much more. Most of it seemed to be that fullness you get while being on cycle from more glycogen in the muscles. My lifts are still going well so as long as that's kept going I should be good

It's good that your PCT is going well! I'm gonna run torem next time with tamox.. How do you find it? My labido has also been fine.

[boxa06]

Day 114

PCT day 13

Just trained legs and was much easier without the super setting. Gave me a chance to really make sure I'm loffing my heaviest! I'm really glad I've changed back to normal (Thanks dooie)!

Squats 6 sets pyramided (20 reps of 80,100,120, 15 reps 140, 10 reps 160, 10 reps with spot 180kgs)
Vertical leg press 4 sets pyramided
Leg extensions 4 sets high volume
Laying ham curls 4 sets pyramided

the torem tastes horrible, need a big mouth full of water with it, the nolva im lucky i get in tabs so no taste, libido started coming back around the end of week 2 pct for me, still not 100% but getting their, got another 3 weeks of pct to go

im up to 81.5kg with cals around 2300-2500 a day now, ive put a small amount of weight on around my lower abs but my arms and chest are bigger now then on cycle. preping for my lean bulk which i should drop that extra fat and bulk up, either going to be 10 weeks of 100mg test prop eod / 60-80mg anavar daily or 14weeks 250mg test cyp twice weekly so 500mg / 60-80mg anavar daily in april or may

Lean bulk sounds good man! I'd probably leave the anavar out until next summer though.. Not much point going into winter. I'd go with test c for 12 weeks lean bulk and if diet is good you'll get really good results.

Yea I usually get bored after 8 weeks lol but I've ran out of good programs so I'm having to rotate old splits but trying to come up with new excercises.

Hey Boxa..what supplements and/or vitamins did you take during your cycle.?

I took universal animal pak, fish oil tabs, wpc, wpi, casien and dextrose. I use all the supplements all year round anyway.

Hey bro! i'm impressed by your results, well done!!!

Did you feel any signs of over training wile using this split:
Quads, hams, lower back
Chest, upper back
Delts, tris, bis
Repeat

I personally look for a training routine but even with AAS use this training routine in particular, looks a bit challenging.Please advice.

How about that DAA, is it for real? There are concerns and studies across about aspartame, aspartic acid and N-methyl-d-aspartic acid neurotoxicity injected in large quantities in the brains of rats. About D-aspartic acid, which is an endogenous substance that occurs naturally in the body, I have not heard anything concrete, except for some concern.

I posted on you thread before I read this post here. I actually suggested you this routine lol for me there came a point where I was recovering so quickly and had so much more energy to smash it in my training sessions. Conventional training left me feeling I could keep going for hours but didn't ever want to exceed 1 hour. That's why I started hitting this antagonistic routine. Also it help get shredded as fuuuaark toward the end of my cycle while still putting on size! If you feel like you've reached this point give it a go. I was at that point by week 8. How long left on cycle? I will say though don't do this routine for more than 4 weeks because it stopped being as effective so maybe use it last 4 weeks up to PCT.

The DAA is working for me. I'm not sure what you're saying in your above post but I'm not a rat and I don't inject it lol the studies I have seen have been on humans and show up to 33 percent in total testosterone.

[boxa06]

Day 118

PCT day 17

Woke up this morning weighing 84.8kgs. I noticed in the shower his morning that my boys look even fuller lol hopefully the worst of it has past. I'm also trying like hell to keep all my gains and so far so good. I still look big but not as lean although I am still lean and happy with myself. Just missing those freaky veins that come out while you're on! I'm trying like crazy on all my heavy sets and so far no strength loss, only energy loss. Tonight I'm due to hit legs then 2 days off.

[JonnyConcrete]

Everythings looking good man, its nice to see a mini PCT log at the end!

Yep..I'm taking note of the pre workout supplement during PCT, might come in handy.

I made some research and it shows up N-methyl-d-aspartic acid (NMDA) and aspartame have been shown to have neurotoxic effects when NMDA receptors are overactivated (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Excitotoxin )

Eventualy Daa was found to be safe where NMDA was not. Daa is not ndma, i think that is the main difference.
Id had have to dig up the rest and dont feel like it.

The 33 % in total testosterone bost was achived in 12 weeks , right? Who knows maybe further use can bring it up more!

Hahaha didn't see that!
Box what r ur meals ur taking to work? Do u cook at the start of the week or every night?

Basically same meals as last diet I posted. Eg. 220g chicken (cooked), 100g veg and 100g wholemeal pasta. Sometimes I drop the veg and increase pasta if I need more carbs sometimes. I usually cook every second night. I'm soooo sick of cooking lol been doing it for a couple of years now though. Do you cook?

[boxa06]

Day 120

PCT day 19

Woke up this morning weighing 84.6kgs. Today is a rest day. I'm happy with my weight staying at that and I feel like it won't change much from here as if started to feel recovered from atrophy the last few day. More aggression etc. For anyone following it feels like your body just runs out of test about 3 weeks after your last shot the for a week you feel crap. Then out of nowhere your body just amazingly knows it has to produce test and within days you can tell the difference
