Upstates SD Log

[UpstateTank]

I was reading up on SD, and I have some now, and not knowing ur supose to take PCT.BTW I have current stock in chapstick becuase my lips are burning, because I was only doing SD and V-50. I Just bought some PCT today hopeing to correct my dehydration and The question I have is how much are you supose to take? And what days?

I'm not too sure what it is you're asking...What exactly are you planning to use for PCT and what do you mean with the chapstick and dehydration thing?

pct = post cycle therapy u take this to maximize your gains after your cycle and get your body back in working order like it was before the cycle.go to page 1 of this thread and read up on what tanks taking during his cycle.i hope that helps.

I was told you should drink 1 1/2 to 2 gallons of water a day on sd.

Thats exactly what I was drinking...Even off cycle I drink at least a gallon a day

Hey Upstate...I was wondering you used this as a bulk...but if you were to use it eating a maintenence how do you think your body wouldve reacted...Im debating on a Superdrol/Clen cycle for cutting while id be eating 2200-2400 a day with alot of am cardio...I would be throwing in the clen to prevent catabolism and the superdrol to possiblly get some lean gains out of it nothing crazy maybe 4-8 pounds while dropping 2-4% bf. So basically im asking is if you think the superdrol could be effective in a possible cut.

Thats a really good question and I dont have an answer for it. I guess I only like to give responses based on my own personal experience and since I've never cut using SD before I couldn't give you a "good" answer. My hunch is you could still get some solid gains off SD while eating at maintenence. I've heard of people using SD to cut and they got good results from it so I dont see why not.

[CoreyTampa09]

Great....then maybe you can answer this...which supporting supplements now that you've done your cycle would you recomend..and at which dose do you think it would be better now that youve expierienced it.

[UpstateTank]

Great....then maybe you can answer this...which supporting supplements now that you've done your cycle would you recomend..and at which dose do you think it would be better now that youve expierienced it.

I'd reccomend all of them. As far as dosing goes I cant really give a definitive answer for that cause everyone is gonna have a different reaction side effect wise to sd. For me the doses were enough--i never got any headaches, elevated heartrate, elevated bp, nose bleeds etc. For a good base I'd say start your doses what I outlined in the first post of this log then adjust as your body tells you to do so.

On a side note- backpumps pick up some taurine and run that at 1g/day
and prostate pain-saw palmetto 1g/day

[CoreyTampa09]

Thanks man. Just curious did you feel your midsection leaned up a bit at all considering you were eating alot of calories..im just basing this on if I do 6 am cardio sessions etc etc

[UpstateTank]

Sadly thats not the case for me. Looking back I wish I had done 6am cardio cause I put on a lil bf during the cycle which was because of my diet not the sd...This week I'm gonna try and motivate myself to get up for 6am cardio sessions

[CoreyTampa09]

Dang you didnt do any am cardio...if I could get half of ur LBM gains while reducing BF% 3% I will be very happy. I definately think I could achieve my goals with all that cardio at my clean diet. Just curious those supporting liver/BP supplements get pricey when all together...where do you reccomend me purchasing mine?

I got them from a supplement warehouse thats actually located in my hometown...if you want the website shoot me a pm..It was kinda on the pricey side for everything if i recall correctly it was around 85-90 bucks total which is a lot up front but its enough to last about 8 weeks

[CoreyTampa09]

Well I would only be needing half that since my PCT is my TRT therapy.

Had an awesome friggin workout today. Last week my chest workout sucked but it was definitely a fluke. Strength is maintaining if not increasing from on cycle. Also weighed myself today as I forgot to last week and my weight has slightly increased from the last time to 215.9 My shoulders been bothering me a lot less too (knock on wood) lately so I believe that's helping a ton in terms of my ability to lift heavier weight.

forgot to mention...clomid's working--im starting to get some acne on my shoulders

[RydersWanted]

Thanks a Ton guys. I'm 2 weeks into my cycle of SD, and Milk Thistle, and I'm a noob about this mixing chemicals together to get the best gain from them, of course not getting the dreaded Gyno. possibly could u guys suggest another Chemical that would maximize my muscle growth with SD? Oh and One last thing, after Ur cycle you then are supose to take that PTC? N my question about that is it's estrogen right.. so will i get girl boobs, Cause I'm pretty sure I wanna stick with the Pecks I got now.

I'm still a lil confused on what exactly you're asking but I'll do my best.
As far as mixing in anything w/ SD...don't. SD is a very powerful compound on its own and doesn't need anything "extra" that would make it "work better"

And as far was PCT (Post Cycle Therapy ) you run it after you're done with your cycle. PCT shouldnt be thought of as a product but rather as something you do after running a cycle of steroids to restore your bodies natural test levels amongst other things. There are many things that can be used for pct...nolva clomid aromasin etc. For SD I'd reccomend clomid + aromasin for pct. As far as pct "being estrogen", it is in a very literal sense...products such as clomid and nolva would provide "all the benefits of estrogen and none of the side effects" (taken from pct forum stickies)...I'd suggest you go hit up the pct forum hardcore cause it doesnt sound like you understand what pct is and how to properly do it.

Hope that helps bro!

[RydersWanted]

Thanks Upstate, ya saved my ass. btw I got the Clomi, But when I get off of my cycle how much do I take?

[UpstateTank]

Thanks Upstate, ya saved my ass. btw I got the Clomi, But when I get off of my cycle how much do I take?

not a problem bro!

dosage wise go:
Week 1 & 2: 105mg/day
Week 3 & 4: 70mg/day

and take it right before you go to bed.

good luck!

Is there a reason why before bed?

Also, hows the PCT working?

[UpstateTank]

Not sure as the reason why but basically everywhere I read about pct timing said to take right before bed

PCT is working great...My strength continues to increase and I'm still gaining weight (at a much slower rate)...I was 215.9 the other day when I weighed myself
