    Cycle #2

    Whats up brothas?

    Current stats:
    24
    5'11"
    193 pounds
    11% body fat
    lifting for 5-6 years
    one cycle under my belt (listed below)

    Well I haven't posted in a while. I have been pretty busy getting my new career going and I am really excited about it. For the past four years I have been working my ass off outside day after day burning away calories, struggling to maintain a "bodybuilding" type of diet (due to the nature of the work/the hours) and really never giving my muscles the time to rest and fucking repair themselves.....but NOOOOWWWWWW lets just say I have a new job, no i mean CAREER and it was definitely bodybuilder friendly so I cant wait to see what the future has in store for me.

    Anyway, I ran my first cycle (and kept a log on here) back around march of this year. The cycle was as follows:

    weeks 1-12 test cyp 500 mg a week
    had a good pct with clomid and also ran an AI throughout.

    My strength went up like crazy and I loved the feeling I got...My biggest mistake with my first cycle was underestimating by bodyfat before starting. I had pegged myself around 15% when looking back on it I was closer to 20. So what ended up happening was I got bigger and stronger and looked pumped and big as a mofo after lifting but still looked a bit puffy and out of shape otherwise. I also didnt continue to eat BIG long enough into PCT to maintain ALL of the muscle that i aquired over the 12 weeks.

    I have been "cutting" down while still lifting as heavy as possible for a little while now and just got my bodyfat tested professionally the other day and I am sitting at 11% at 193 pounds. I plan on continuing to lower my body fat until I am around 9 or so, maybe just to 10% and then I would like to run another cycle and this time from a much better starting point and an all around better environment and lifestyle that is much more conducive to bodybuilding.

    What would you guys suggest as far as a second cycle goes? I was THINKING a simple prop cycle for 8 weeks, MAYBE with dbol as a kicker but im not sure, could also run cyp or Enth. again for 12. Anyways thanks for listening and ill check in later.

    you're going in pretty lean so I'm assuming you want to bulk, and a little water isn't going to make you look terrible

    what about test prop, npp, dbol?

    Thanks for the reply man...Yeah i am looking to put on some mass but keep it LEAN as I possibly can. I looked super bloated and shit on my first cycle but as I already stated that was mainly because I thought i was leaner than I was. In reality I was a fat fucktard.

    Wk 1-7 Test E 500mg/wk
    Wk 1-12 NPP 300-400mg/wk
    Wk 8-12 Test E 750mg/wk
    Wk 10-13 SuperDMZ 2caps ED
    Wk 1-13 Aromasin 12.5mg ED
    WK 1-12 HCG 250-500iu x2/wk
    Wk 1-12 Cabergoline 0.5mg x2/wk

    PCT:

    Clomid 100/100/75/50
    Aromasin 25/25/12.5/12.5

    That is a mass builder for sure. Whether it is lean mass or ridiculous mass will be determined by your diet.

    You could also run the DMZ weeks 1-4, if you choose.

    (I had D-bol in there for six weeks, but took it out when I saw your post above)

    GMO, fuck man that looks really good. I had sort of outlined one for myself and it included everything you have there minus the NPP and had D-bol rather than DMZ but hell, i like yours much better...I am really hoping to get everything purchased within the next couple of months and hopefully get started sometime at the beginning of next year.

    I see what you said about the diet determining the outcome. I think this time around I am going to run more of a 40/40/20 macro split then 30/50/20 (p/c/f).

    I also think I will more than likely add the DMZ at the beginning as well.

    I ran a 40/40/20 split on my last cycle with great results.

    SuperDMZ is the shit bro. I highly recommend it for lean mass gains and recomp'ing.

    Hurts like hell, but the doctor said the MRI looks fine. Oddly, I threw 185 and then 195 on the bench, and it did not hurt at all for 20 reps, but the next few days after the shoulder locked up and hurt . . .

    The most painful thing is wide grip pullups. I have to stick to chin ups narrow and pulley rows.

    Doc said he thought it was a pec tendon tear, but could not be sure because the MRI did not cover that. He said a few months of rest, which he clarified to include light weightlifting, should set it aright.

    Damn, so are you ACTUALLY going to lay off the weights for a few months?

    Man I will tell you that one of my favorite parts of my second cycle that I'm on was kickstarting with prop. It kicks in fast, and you can run an oral around week 4. Prop and tren might be tasty if you think you want to get on that level.

    Sounds pretty similar to mine, except I have it in both shoulders somehow. Mine developed years ago when I had been lifting consistently for around 3-4 years. It took a while to develop, and after getting distracted from the gym for over a year it felt mostly fine. Still a little "loose" and it would pop and make odd noises in certain positions but it didn't really hurt. I started lifting again close to year ago now and it returned within the first six months. It was minor at first and I don't have insurance to find out what it was so I just kept training. Apparently that was an even worse idea than it sounded like because now both my shoulders are fucked, I've had to call out of work and go to the emergency room, now I'm waiting for an appointment with an orthopaedic doctor for MRI's. I hope to god they find something and can do something about it, I'm pretty sure at this point I tore up my labrum a bit. In that case surgery's pretty much the only option. Labrum surgery can be 6-8 months recovery before you can lift again

    I pretty much feel like I wasted the past year and I'm gonna have to start over again

    You could throw in gh or a combo of ghrp-6/cjc 1295 might help the shoulder and it helps with bf

    I've got a question for anyone... do you ever have to taper down test? I have seen people recommend cycle progressions like 500mg/wk to 750mg/wk to 1000mg/wk, then taking 2 weeks off before PCT. To me, it seems like your strength would drop pretty hard after just stopping 750/wk or 1000/wk

    Anyways, this will be a good thread to watch since I'm planning on running my second cycle in jan. Good luck with your cycle

    It's going to come back down to baseline anyway. Would you rather ride the high dose test for as long with all the good that it has or slowly taper off? To me tapering makes no sense. Just prolongs the cycle with less gear. And if we have learned anything..."Moar Gear".

    I agree stepping up the dosage is the only way that makes sense as your gains slow down. You're shutdown anyway so tapering isn't going to help your recovery and will give you minimal gains for your time on cycle.

    I've heard tapering was used back in the day when they didn't really have a pct. They just tapered down as much as possible to let their production restart a bit before they came completely off. I don't know how effective that would be really but if you were able to taper down using short esters and use less test than you would naturally produce. Your body senses the shortage and makes up the difference. With modern pct knowledge though you're better off just dropping it completely and starting clomid/aromasin.

    With the NPP, I have read that injections every 3 days is a good way to go about it. So, can I throw in the NPP (150mg) with Test E (250mg) together in the same barrel twice a week? (Atleast for the first part of my cycle before I bump up the test dosage.....) And GMO suggested 250mg twice a week of HCG. Does this need to be pinned alone without any other compounds?

    To make it easy, I do HCG sub-q in ma belly with a slin pin. I use 500iu 2x week cause I still noticed atrophy on 250.

    With the NPP shoot for atleast 3x per week. A MWF split would work.
