    Yes I am very good with my diet! I eat every 3 hours, tkae in about 250g of protein a day (I would jump to 400g on sauce), I eat about 3000-3500 cals a day right now and I eat very clean!

    My goals:

    bench now: 225lbs x 8 (affter cycle 285lbs x 8)
    deadlift now: 315lbs x 10 (affter cycle 405lbs x 10)
    Squate now: I pintched a nerv so I have not worked legs in a month....I will prob want to be squating around 315lbs If I can.

    Why are your reps so high? 5 sets of 5 is superior for gaining strength

    I switch it up but 8 is a nice medium rep range....somtimes I will only do 3-4 reps and other times I do 8-12....It just depends on how I feel or what I am training for....I figer 8 reps Is a good medium rep range that will give me both size and strength.

    well for test only cycle at 500mgs for your first cycle the strength gains your looking for a little out of reach youd need to add extra steroid(s) to reach near them goals but im not recommending you do that, i good 500mgs test cycle will do a lot for you though

    I know every one is diffrent but how much on avg would you say I will add to my bench, squate, deadlift, and clean? I guess what Im trying to ask is on avg what does a person gain? and what about you what wer your strength gains?

    lets put it this way..

    especially if this is your 1st cycle.. it's very easy to injure yourself by pushing more weight than your ligaments and tendons can support..

    thus you get injured.. so rest rest rest, and be aware of the possibility of over training..

    i would say that if your diet, training, sleep etc. everything is SPOT ON (keep in mind that you may REALLY believe and think it is and it isn't) you could get your bench from 225 x 8 to 265 x 8 no problem.. I did on my first cycle of 500 sustanon a week for 12 weeks.

    deadlift i don't think it's that far out there to think you could add a plate on each side.. definitely at least 50 lbs..

    you have to be really motivated/dedicated and not half ass ANYTHING

    thx. yes thats a good point! I already have bad shoulders so I will make sure I do not push my self over board! my goal is to add atleast 50lbs to my bench press but like you said I shouldent force it.
