Well, I realized I will not look like I really want to without a shirt. The skin has lost a lot of taughtness & I just can’t blast my pecs & Delts because of the RC.
But, damn, I’ve been filling out my shirts very nicely & have had to move up a size because of this cycle. I’m a jeans and t-shirt guy, so I’m feeling alright. My 210 pound, 60 year old self is getting comments out of the gym & drawing a few stares at the gym when I’m pumped.
Going into cruise mode for about a month. Realized the clen made me feel like shit, but damn, it worked. Non the less, feeling more alive again now that I’m off it. This Summer should be fun.
Hey man how are you ? No post since the 18th ? Today is the 1st . Just give a heads up ....... When you get this I hope all is well .......
I do not want to have an issue here on the forum boards so if you like you can PM me your email and/or phone # and I will get back to you about some things I saw.

Doing good Buzz, just a little slump.
OK, intrigued, wtf did you see & why was it edited???
PM sent.
OK, hopefully this pic doesn't induce mass vomiting, but to me, it's not TOO horrible (but still a little cringeworthy, lol).
I think I have something to build upon this Summer.
I'm getting closer to 61; simply happy & proud that I'm still having the hunger.
GH, you are a great guy. I'm sure your efforts on a younger & more genetically gifted person would be profound, but in 4 months, you turned my body into something I'm not as ashamed of. TY!
Dude, you make me proud to know you brother
Looking awesome prox!
Are you ending cycle now?
Future plans?

Off cycle about a month now.
Going to start again in a couple of weeks.
Just a bit less conservative this time.
We are are similar schedule. I been cruising 4 weeks now. Not sure how much longer I will cruise possibly 4 more weeks or little less. I’m thinking blast with npp or tren (or maybe few weeks of npp followed by tren) not sure yet. Your next cycle compound thoughts?

Always under the wizard's guidance.
Upping tren, adding Mast, LGD & T4. Still digging Hgh. Also will add Dbol if the blood pressure allows it.
Summer break from school, allowing my old-mans energy levels to catch a break, so training will definitely be stronger.
About 1.5 weeks into next phase.
Test, tren, Mast, t4, hgh, LGD & Dbol.
I was already showing some tightening by adding some low dose tren during the last 4 weeks, but it’s looking even more pronounced now as the dosage has climbed.
Decided to throw caution to the wind and add more shoulder & chest work in & it is showing. The pumps in the gym have been noticeably better (D-bol?) and more veins are popping up on my arms. There are even tiny little veins showing on my lower abs, wtf.
Have added more cardio and also have added an additional fasted cardio (goal is 3x per week).
Diet is all arranged & will be adding more carbs & will adjust as needed.
Pics will be minimal as they always depress the fuck out of me & never seem to match what I “think” I am seeing in the mirror. But I do know for sure that I’ve improved upon the work that I showed on the last pic.
Sides appear to be interference with sleep & just lately, upset stomach/acid reflux.
A couple of weeks in.
A little tighter. No change in weight, still holding at 210.
Have to keep reminding myself: slow and gradual.
Picked up some take out tonight. Got in the car and started to sweat.
5 minute drive home. Had almost completely soaked through my shirt and jeans.
Let the fun begin.
Have you looked into the high fat diet I am just starting and love the food choices almost to goo to be true !
I’m on a diet that switches carb days and fat days based upon the workouts. Nice to see you Buzz!
God I hate those pics. Depress the f out of me and have been feeling low.
Put on a t-shirt yesterday that used to be loose and it’s almost douche-bag tight now. Feeling more positive again.
However, bad night of drinking last night. The tren and some personal issues are keeping me awake and I didn’t stop. Felt like crap today. Trying to maintain today’s diet, but the gym was a no go.
Hang over is history. F’n white wine in the Summer, so good at night, so messed up the next day.
2 meals down, final cup of coffee, been yapping my ass off on the forum for 3 hours - almost game-time.
To funny the drunk munster got me Fri Night and I got tossed from my favorite watering hole ........ they would not serve me any more ....... Split a pitcher of Margaritas with a friend and then went to Canton Ice House ..... 4 Vegas Bombs and a pitcher later and they cut me off ....... I have no idea why because I can't remember My friends said I had a great time ..............
Sounds perfect.
For my Friday night, the combo of tren and alcohol got me again and completely destroyed a relationship that I was enjoying.
I think being in Ketosis makes the alcohol have a stronger effect . Fat melting off at the tune of in 2 weeks 9lbs and the fat helps sustain the muscles ???? Crazy ! 4lbs 1st week and 5lb the 2nd and only lifting maybe 5 x's a week and skin already getting thin for a fat man ..........
All the info you need and proper way to fast and hit Ketones faster really makes sense and easy once you adjust ............ seen pix of guys on FB that "claim" to be only lifting 3 times a week and are shredded .
Going to have a Pitsberged 8oz Rib Eye with butter on it not geee this time still have to cook some up ..... salad with high fat blue cheese dressing and broccoli with lemon water ............ I am in taking over a gallon a day and bloat goes away because I pee even more than with normal water of about a gallon a day consumption and no carbs hanging around to retain water weight ...... good food I feel guilty to eat !

About 4-5 years back, prior to even TRT, I was struggling with fat loss.
I went Paleo/Keto. Easily dropped 1 - 2 pounds of fat per week, but it stopped around a total of 15.
That steak sounds fantastic!
Great to see you back Buzz!
Ketosis and beer that sounds like jumbo shrimp or free sex.

Biceps yesterday:
Machine curls
Barbell curls
Hammer-curls
SS reverse curls with wrist curls
Bent over, concentration single arm bicep curls
Had done abs & cardio last 3 days, so-called it quits.
Weight at 213 this morning.
This gym has a reputation for basketball. A lot of scouts workout draft picks here or NBA & international players train. Now that it’s Summer, things get interesting. The parking lot was jammed with Ferrari’s, Porches & Land Rovers.
A little bump in the road.
Have been told that my response to this cycle is not as expected. I should be “blowing up”.
For those of you that have seen “Pulp Fiction” - Mr. Wolf is on the m-f er.
Mad camera skills
One of best back workouts in memory, yesterday.
Pulldowns with separate handles (can really zero in on lower trap contraction); 8 WS (after finding resistance that comes near failure at 8 reps).
Bent over flyes: 5 sets 8 with 20, 5 sets 8 with 15.
Low Hammer rows: 6 sets of 8
Rows: 210 x 8 reps for 5 sets. 190, 8 reps for 3 sets. 140, 8 reps for 3 sets
Face pulls: 5 sets X 20
Saw a good friend last night that I haven’t seen since November (a month before I started on my mission). I was wearing a fairly loose t-shirt. As he approached the door and we went to shake hands he said that I looked completely different, even my face. Said I looked like I could be a movie extra and that I was a stud, essentially, wtf is goin on, that I’m not the same person. He’s a great guy, I did fess up, felt compelled.
Was hoping for more “pop’ from the tren & Dbol, but the mad-genius had an explanation. Maybe I’m over expecting what to see, cause the reflection in the mirror is putting a smile on my face & at the gym, even with milder pumps, I don’t look the same.
Anadrol on the way. Will be starting Slin shortly after.
Second really killer workout in a row, triceps.
The reflection in the mirror was very rewarding today. Maybe everything is working better than I thought.
All of this sweating is getting to be a pain in the ass though (but well worth it).
It was recommended that I go high rep training with this new phase, new territory for me so getting some coaching. Today I just winged it.
Machine curls 5 sets of 25
Barbell curls 25 X 3, 20 x 2, 15 x 1
Hammer curls 3 sets each with a double drop, each with reps starting at 20, drop, 15, drop 10
Cable curls 5 sets of 25
SS wrist flexion/extension 3 sets of 15-20 reps
Ab crunches
Solid pump
Resolving some issues, changing the cycle & diet - going to crush the next 6 weeks.
Started new cycle, destroyed chest & Delts today.
Triceps yesterday were amazing.
Legs today or at least my limited capacity to do them;
Leg press 5 sets 15
Hip abduction & adduction 4 sets 15 each
Calve raises 4 sets 15
Seated calve raises 4 sets of 15
Leg ext 4 sets 15
Goblet squats: new for me, focus on form. Knees would only allow 2 sets of 10.
Abs & treadmill
The xxl t-shirt that used to fit more like tent is actually stretching slightly in the chest and shoulders.
No more body-recomp, time for some size.
Back & rear Delts
Pulldowns
Low Hammer rows
Bent over flies
Shrugs
High face pulls
Rows
Happy with the mirror & how my clothes fit, but the scale stays consistent at 211-212. Vascularity is increased.
Test 300
Tren 300
Mast 400
Dbol 40
Adrol 50
Hgh 4 iu
LGD 50
T4 75
Cab 10 (pre-existing prolactin issue)
Nolva 10
Atenolol (pre existing BP issue)
Told that the Adrol should show results at day 12, currently at day 9.
Sides:
Mild-moderate sweating throughout the day. Moderate in evening, but not sheet soaking.
Sweat smells funky.
Initially was becoming edgy, but even though I still am, I’m a bit more even in my behavior. Have had some frequent road rage incidents. Dick heads are always drawn to wanting to challenge my car, though & I have to really watch it. The car is scary fast.
Shit timing for some friend pulling some bs on me, major mind fuck. Has effected all aspects of my life, including training. Just bad f’n timing for this shit & I’m getting sucked back into it again.
Should be eating more & am trying. What I am consuming compared to when I started this journey is mind-blowing to me, but arguably needs to be bumped further.
Am considering slin, based upon what results I see from the Adrol.
Overall happy. Love looking down on my arms at night while relaxing with wine and seeing more veins popping. Plus the arms (and everything) are hard & dry, my priority. Don’t want wet, don’t want bloat.

Added to above:
BP (another pre existing issue) is staying consistent.
Sleep is an issue. Initially just falling asleep is tough, many nights staying out on the couch or in front of the tv till 1 - 3 am. Once in bed, sleep is inconsistent.
I never have quit drinking though and this has helped with the sleep in some respect.
F-me, the ability to still keep my 1.5 - 2 bottles of wine habit (per night) drastically up my calories & continually lose fat & gain muscle is insane. Plus, my cardio is almost non-existent, maybe 20 minutes, 2x per week.
I am SO happy that I didn’t start this stuff at a younger age.
If you are in SoCal you might of just felt an earthquake of a 3-4 magnitude.
Don’t fear, it wasn’t, I just dropped my dumbbells.
Biceps today. Decided to see if there were more strength improvements, so did reps of 6 today.
Machine curls (similar to seated alternate dumbbell curls)8 sets
Hammer curls 8 sets
Barbell curls 5x5
Cable curls 8 sets
Machine concentration curls 5 x 25
Ab machine 8 x 25
Yeah, strength is improved noticeably. Nice workout.
Doing ground sirloin burgers tonight but might put a slice of cheese on the mofo. And the potatoe salad from this local deli is killer!
Shit that was a 6 quake this morning, house was rolling & moving pretty damn well.
Damn, bi’s still pumped.
GH said more carbs, better use a bun for these burgers.
Well, I will say this for this cycle.
I must be pretty atypical, either that or I don’t know what it looks like to “blow up”.
I’m bigger & def cut. Vascularity improving.
Damn, adjust diet slightly (cut calories), see it in the mirror almost instantly.
Killed back yesterday, in a nice groove, but dropping dosages. Strength is def increased, yikes.
BP is starting to climb; could be factors like stress, but saw that another young athlete stroked (Teddy Bruschi / Patriots), just can’t take the risk. Dropping Dbol altogether. Adrol goes next if I’m not wowed by what is “supposed” to happen at the 2 week mark.
Definitely this has been worth it. Thinking my expectations are too elevated.
Good day.
Day #14 of Adrol, was getting worried, but, weight jumped on the scale today, hmm.
Switched my Adrol & Dbol to a European source as well.
20 mg. Dbol pre-workout. Holy f!
Still, this Summer can have potential.
Wife thinks I’m crazy for getting down, as not a single shirt fits & the mirror reflection in the gym today did not belong to me.
Got more compliments yesterday suggesting the Adrol is working.
I am getting headaches with this new source though. Got to be more mindful of the BP as well.
Found out that I don’t like higher reps for biceps. Odd, felt it for the triceps, but not the bi’s.
Sticking with a fundamental leg routine & it feels good after so many years. My ass is so flat : (
4 weeks till work resumes, have to buy all new shirts already now, but will wait till this phase is over.
