43 Y.O. 5'9", 162# (now), 18% (approx.) B.F. (?)
Training weights and cardio off and on for 10 + years, going from fit to fat, to fit again. I am the definition of hard gainer. Weight gain/loss is easy. LBM has always been very, VERY difficult.
I logged my previous cycle, stats, pix, etc. here:

AAS HISTORY:
Three previous (real) cycles with Test and/or Test/Tren. Two "prohormone" cycles previous.
HISTORY and PLAN:
I plan to lose another couple pounds before my new cycle. Tentatively, I have the start date as March 15. My guess is that I'm about 18% BF currently. I have a "two-pack." I will post a pic taken the day I start my cycle.
I have done very little weight training over the last 8 months. Part of this is because I had a physically demanding job in a location with no gym or space to work out. (small island town) I've also read quite a bit about muscle memory, and "Blast/Cruise." techniques. This will be somewhat of an experiment to see how much I can shock my body into new growth, and bring back what I had previously. Currently, I'm very cardio fit for my age and history - even in my 20's.
I am starting a 5 day weight training regimen tomorrow with the idea of about 3 weeks training before AAS start to work. My routine will be very similar to what I had been doing with my last cycle, as I felt the results were outstanding. I will continue with my typical 30 minutes interval-cardio, post-workout always.
GOAL is RE-COMPOSITION! - LEAN mass with the least fat gain possible. If I can put on 5-7 pounds of LBM, and keep or even lower my BF%, I will consider this cycle successful. After the cycle, I hope to lean up more while keeping any muscle gain. I will post pix, edit, and list progress/complications/adjustments here as I go along. I've found that keeping stats/diary is invaluable.
