Here is what I'm tentatively planning to run beginning September 5th pending any suggestions, which may amend, modulate or change the following 16 week cycle. First, I will lay out the cycle, which will feature (I like this word, thanks MrA for this word and the help laying this cycle out) an anadrol pulsing cycle (thanks John69 for the heads up on this method). The pulse is in view of the likely sides from drol, namely liver toxicity, and elevated DHT. FUrther, anecdotal evidence shows that pulsing may result in similar gains as using drol continuously while mitigating the harsh sides. Second, I will state my goals for both phases of the cycle (the first half being a lean bulk, the second a recomp/cutter). Third, I will give an example of the bulking diet I came up with based on SF's suggested carb cycling diet (still contemplating the recomp/cutter phase; have to see how the first phase plays out). Finally, I will give a rudimentary workout schedule. So here goes...
Bulking Phase:
Cycle support includes Liver support, Prostate support, Aro, Adex, Lasix for water retention, and HCG (I'm on the fence regarding on-cycle use of Nolvadex. Many boards state that using Nolva while on drol helps with the estrogenic sides from drol. It is assumed that drol binds with e2 receptors despite the fact that drol does not aromatize as it is a DHT derived steroid). I will be drinking up to 2 gallons of water per day (currently, I'm up to 1.5 per day).
Weeks 1-8: Test P 750-1000 mgs per week (mgs are up for amendment) Daily injection
Weeks 1 & 2, 4 & 5, 7 & 8: Drol 50 mgs daily. Weeks 3, and 6 off. Weeks
Recomp/Cut Phase
Cycle support includes Caber, Liver support, Prostate support (can't hurt as I'm 46), aro, adex, and HCG
Weeks 9-16: Test p 350-400 mgs per week daily injection
Weeks 9-16: Tren Ace 525 mgs per week daily injection
Weeks 9-16 Mast P 600-700 mgs per week daily injection
Goals
My primary goal for the bulking phase is to build my lats, biceps, and vastus medialis while hopefully growing proportionately in all areas. A less apparent goal is to learn how my body responds to Drol in general.
My goal during the second phase of the cycle is to keep the gains from the drol as much as possible, while hardening the muscle and increasing vascularity. Of course, I want to drop the water, which presumably will happen what ever the case may be.That is why I follow the Drol with tren and Mast P. I am using tren to solidify the gains from the drol, and the Masteron to harden the muscle.
Diet
I will be incorporating a carb-cycling plan for the bulking phase of this cycle. This plan is based on information I received from SemperFi. This plan is a 3 day cycle of low, moderate, and high carb days. The menu is designed for simplicity, and efficient preparation, so it may not seem too tasty...
Day 1: P= 400 gr; F= 72 gr; C= 150 gr
Day 2: P= 350 gr; F= 72 gr; C= 300 gr
Day 3: P= 250 gr; F= 72 gr; C= 450 gr
Day 1 Meal Plan:
Meals 1 & 5: 60gr protein powder; 1 oz. hemp seeds, or 20 gr flax seed powder; 1/2 c. oats
Meals 2, 3, 4, and 6: 8 oz chicken breast, 1 oz hemp seeds, 1/6 c white rice, 1/4 c frozen mixed veggies
Day 2 Meal Plan
Meals 1 & 2: roughly 45 gr protein powder; 1 oz hemp seeds; 1 cup oats
Meals 2, 3, 4, & 6: 8 oz Chicken breast, 1 oz peanuts, 60 gr shredded wheat, 1/4 c frozen mixed veggies
Day 3 Meal Plan
Meals 1 & 2: 30 gr protein powder, 1 oz hemp seeds, 1.3 c oats
Meals 2, 3, 4, & 6: 2 oz chicken breast, 2 tblsp Olive Oil, 1/2 c quinoa, 20 gr shredded wheat, 1 c mixed veggies
Training Plan
My training plan is based on a five day split training on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday or Sunday. I don't really stick to a "Monday is chest day" and so forth. So, I won't even pretend that I have a set-in-stone approach. However, I currently train Chest/abs, triceps/shoulders/cardio, biceps/hams/calves/abs, back/cardio, quads/abs on respective days in a five day split fashion. I may, while on cycle, train on otherwise off days focusing on either lats, biceps or VM depending on what I did the day before.
Conclusion
This plan is obviously open to suggestions. I am not dead set on a start date as I want to do this correctly. Though I spelled out my generalized goals, I will be taking each day as it comes, and watch how my body/mind respond to the compounds I plan to take during this cycle. While I have expectations of muscle growth, I am going to remain open to what comes, and what may not be achievable for unforeseeable reasons. I chose short esters just in case problems arise whether physical, emotional, or mental. I've run tren before, and have an idea of what to expect. I'm a bit like Burr insofar as I tend to become much more empathetic. Since coming off the tren some time ago, some of this empathy has stuck with me, which tells me there is much more to gain from AAS than what meets the eye, we can and should grow emotionally, and mentally when we use these substances given that hormones effect other physiological systems including but not limited to our central nervous system (i.e., the brain) And to this I look forward
I know this was a bit long-winded....
Thanks,
