How old were u when you started? 115 lbs makes me think you hadn't hit puberty yet.
And what does "Current - Lettuce call it November '11" mean?

you look sick @ 170 bro, whats your height?
how many cals above maitinance are you going when buliking?

Just trying to make a point about the jump in weight from 115 - that's telling me you did this at a very young age when you weren't full developed yet in terms of puberty so I'd probably not recommend that as the best time to cycle. The gains would be amazing just from eating.
Wherever you're at now, very good results.

Will get down to brass on this in the am.
Though for now this answer will have to suffice:
Basically once I started PCT for my first cycle I bulked a solid amount until a few weeks into this one. Then I transitioned my cals slowly down to a recomp diet then slowly down to a cutting one, with the addition of cardio near the end of the cut.
When my cals get that low I start using intermittent fasting - 16 hour fast, 8 hour feed window - ALA Lean Gains.
Protein is always high only really mess with carbs and fats (mostly carbs).
5'4" aka 64"
I keep it in the 4.5k-5k cal range. So I guess we could say 2.3k-1.8k cals above maintenance depending on where I am in my bulk.
I don't think you are at all following me.
Please re-read the OP
I lifted naturally from November '09-January '11. By then I was 21 years 7 months old. On the young side I know but plenty of people hopping on much more stuff at much younger ages.
Also I don't want to get into collagen synthesis and stuff but I believe each cycle, yes even my first test only one, has helped make my shoulder feel better.

i'm waiting for the link to the spam on the program......
You look very young..... and Swole.... I think you hit the juice a little early, but congrats... I'm sure you hit what you wanted to accomplish.
How big is that listerine bottle in your first pic? It looks huuuuuuuuge!

lol I think your calling this one right
those were my exact thoughts..i was giving myself a headache and thought i was going crazy haha
Thanks for all the pm's, reps, feedback and kind words!
Thanks man.
I do focus on my chest.
My back I neglect more than anything (intentionally - I know it wins shows but I want to be balanced too). I will usually hit 2 back days a month which usually just has 2 pulldown/up type exercises and then 2 rowing type exercises.
It is one of those large ones. Not sure on the exact size since the pic is old but walk into your grocery store and look for the biggens if you want an idea. I like to keep my teeth shiny
Huh?
Fst-7 + DC style stretching is what I am all about.
Indeed you are right.
Give me those 4"!
Funny thing is I pride myself on my ability to crunch numbers. I write my macros down in a journal everday and then add them up at the end of the day and multiply them out for cals and then add the cal from all 3 macros together for my total of the day ... all in my head. So yeah kind of ashamed. Not to mention my major relies on my math skills and I got a perfect score 4 years ago on the math section of my SAT.
This is why I shouldn't post when I am scattered brained.

I hope that's not a "now and before" picture instead of a "before and after" picture.
I outsmarted a math major in math!!
Yeah, but I don't believe he has done anything big lately just cause he had some kids not too long ago and also just upping his client load.
Though like I said first show, so him and I are still getting acquainted and such. Normally about this time every year I am like FUCKKKKK want to fast forward to Christmas for epic gifts. Now I want to fast foward to Christmas because that is when we are digging in and officially starting the prep - and prep cycle
Best part is the simplest of math is my forte ... I used to get called a human calculator in grade school.
Like how I can't go back and edit that either, forever a retard haha.

I'm not trying to nitpick, but it looks like you could bring your lower quads up some. They're are not at the same level as your upper quads. This is common for deep-squatting guys. (I'm one, too).
On stage, this will mean that when viewed from the front, other competitors (whose legs you will think suck) will have legs that look comparable to yours only because they spent more time doing less than full reps on leg press while you were getting splinters in the squat rack. If you're not doing it already, I'd recommend doing leg press before squats for at least 50% of your quad workouts. And, btw, for a guy your height, your range of motion on leg press for lower quads will feel ridiculously short. (At a towering 5'51/2", I have some experience with this.) Just pile on the weight and don't worry about that -- You're keeping the movement short to minimize hip involvement. Good luck with your show and make sure to let us know how it goes.

Do you knee wrap at all for leg pressing?
My squat was starting to get retarded at the end of the cycle so I backed off it and started actually doing leg presses at the top of my workout more.
Though now even doing a good amount of reps my knees still ache from the sheering force of all the weight I load up on the leg press. So I have been thinking it is time to dust off the knee wraps I got last spring - and have yet to use.
I smell something................
How come the most tenured members on here seem to be making the most vague posts in my thread...would hope for some deep insightful stuff from the likes of you guys.
If you have any quarrels over whether or not I am real or something I say is true, just ask JThom he has met me in person from when we used to both play paintball tournaments on the national circuit and we remain good friends. He knows what is what.

Alex Azarian is a competitor and very much the real thing. I've met him a number of times at shows in CA. He is master of conditioning, as you can see. Note that aggressive conditioning often comes at a cost of muscle, but for competition conditioning is a necessity but with the fine balance of coming in tight but not stringy.
