I decided it was past time to start a journal up here because I remember all the inspiration from last time. I recently competed the USA Wheelchair Championships and placed first. I came in at 4.5% BF and 176lbs. My goal now is to gain 15lbs by January and win Wheelchair Nationals in March. I will be going against Colt Wynn, last years winner. Those of you who read Muscle and Fitness may have read about him. Im eating 4000 calories a day balanced at 50% carbs, 30% protein, and 20% fat. Thats really about it. Impossible is Nothing. -Jeff. |

Incline DB Hammer Curl xF 50 (12) xF 50 (10) 7. CG Ring Chins xF BW (15) xF BW+25 (8) Mmmm... I love my volume! Witch... Thanks for the idea of CG chins... they were a great finisher for my biceps! I just added my own special twist... doing them on rings! |
)... so today I got the wise idea to do 100# DB. Ten pounds per arm is way too much of a jump! I did manage to get it up about halfway, possibly a bit more, I could have done it if I cheated, but I want to keep strict form. When I do do it (about three weeks) I will post the video! |

I might do a light cycle when I cut for my show in March just to maintain the current muscle. I have been reading a lot about the 14 on and 14 off (or slight variations 17/14, 21/17, etc) method using an oral such as dbol. Most people tend to make smaller more consistent gains and they tend to keep those gains. Any opinions of this? |

. I will say, I am not a fan of oral only cycles. He may have gained 12 lbs, but I bet he loses that fairly quickly. The old saying 'test is best' is a good rule of thumb. Gains come slower, but also last longer. Oral only cycles are usually devised by people who are afraid of needles. That said, some people do seem to get good results with dbol alone, but it really should be combined with a slow acting ester like test enanthate or cypionate.
