First Cycle Log: Test Cyp 500 mg/wk

Good log.

Your running objectives are not achivable. The more weight you put on the slower you will be, nothing you can do about it.
Muscles and endurance sports dont mix well.

Keeping good cardio is great but you should reduce your running distances and speed, keep your hr around 155 imo.

Hey BB,

Thank you greatly for your comment. I appreciate it, and I honestly agree with you. At 14 days in on a 12 week cycle I'm up 14.5 lbs. Now, at 220 I used to run a 5:59 mile about 8 years ago, and was hitting that fine at 200 recently but I have no clue what my total gain will be here. I'm imagining I will put on another 20-30 lbs, based on progress so far, by the end of the cycle. Any chance I'm going to clock 6:30 at 240lbs? Probably not.

After my run the other night I came to the same conclusion as you. Longggg runs are out for a while. My RHR has gone from 48 bpm to 73 bpm and I don't like running with a heart rate near 180 for any longer than I have to. I think it's sort of counter productive after reading a bit more. The body is making more blood so the heart is pumping more... Running that far dehydrates you which thickens the blood and makes the heart have to work harder.

I'm going to do 30 min on an elliptical 2 days a week and 1 mile for speed two days a week. For me a mile is pretty short. Speed will be the focus rather than long distance endurance. Otherwise I will just walk until PCT starts.

Thanks again man.
