Why are you only working out your back and arms? I’m all natural but I imagine that you need to eat allot still to bulk up even using test. Not to mention what is the intensity of your workouts, are you going to failure or are you just there to play games, amount of reps, sets etc? Not trying to be a dick, I just have a all in good fun asshole personality. Time to stop dreaming and let’s make this a reality.

Flat chest machine 85, 100, 115 lbs
Incline smith machine 35, 35, 35 lbs in each side (I truly forgot to increase but for next time)

[TheDreamer]

So Monday February the 21th was my last day cutting. I weighted 168.8 with the stomach empty at noon. My waist stayed almost the same compared to the week before and I don't even know how that was possible when I did so much cardio. It's why I am bulking immediately. It's just frustrating
me. The losing fat process has been very slow. At most I lose 1 pound a week and it has been killing myself. Anyways, I decided to take that day as a "cheating day". But wait, the two days after I also ate dirty. On Wednesday and Thursday I ate alright. But the 3 days remaining were awful (I ate so much junk food). I just couldn't avoid it. It's been several months eating the same crappy chicken breast and brown rice that my system could not take it anymore.

____

At the end this morning the 28th I weighted 173.2 pounds. I am just not sure if it's the water retention from the so many carbs I ate the day before. I seallowed a double cheeseburger with bacon, a slice of cake and a snickers ice cream bar 2 hours before going to bed. Maybe was that? Oh BTW, my calories were on the maintance level on that day. As for my waist, it stayed about the same compared to the last 7 days it seems. It's just hard to tell sometimes... Let's just say I'm between 32.5-32.8 inches when I measured right above the belly bottom.

[TheDreamer]

And no, the EQ and test cycle is not doing a lot. I don't know what is it. At this point I am just hoping that eating over the maintance level will make me grow more. My balls got small and libido seems a bit higher. But no signs of mass gaining like you would expect on a cycle with roids. Maybe I have tolerance to them?

[TheDreamer]

I don't think I gained a lot of muscle mass during the last week because my bicep is the same size. That's how I measure my gains. Pictures are so hella confusing giving the light quality. I don't trust unless you compare between long periods.

You won’t grow at maintenance calories. EQ not very good for cutting. The only notable thing it does is make me hungry and lethargic.
