This cycle should look a little something like this...

Weeks 1-5: Bold @ 800mg/day
Weeks 6-8: Bold @ 800mg/day, M-Drol 20mg/day


Since I will be starting this tomorrow, that does give me enough time to be insane, run to the store and pick up trenadrol as well to use as a kickstart...should I? I know that would be voodoo's exact Hulk Stack just at different doses :D

If I did, the stack would look like

Weeks 1-4: Bold @ 800mg/day, Trenadrol @6mg/day
Week 5: Bold @ 800mg/day
Weeks 6-8: Bold @ 800mg/day, M-Drol 20mg/day

I am using M-drol instead of any other SD clone due to a few different reasons. Competitive Edge Labs has without question some of the best customer service reps I have ever spoken with, and on top of that, their online representation is phenomenal. This doesn't hurt either though....

http://a691.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/104/l_1c24a1d1d800fdfadd11c56ecf7fe40a.jpg



My diet has been damn perfect these past 3 months, and this will not change for this cycle.

The bulk of my protein will come from lean chicken breast. I will be eating 3lbs of chicken breast every day. That will leave me with 300grams of protein every day from an animal source, as well at 75 grams a day from Whey, and 25 or so grams from oats. My carb sources will be vegetables(which will not be counted to daily totals as I usually don't eat too many), oats(90% most likely), and sweet potatoes.

So... 400 grams of protein a day = 1600 calories
350 grams of carbs a day = 1400 calories
100-150 grams of fat a day = 900-1350
_________________________________________

Total calories: 3900-4350



I don't feel like posting my entire routine(nothing new here), but will continue to do what works...12 sets per muscle group, 3-4 exercises. I will be incorporating some "pyramid" style lifting during this cycle which I normally do not do(IE using 4 sets on an exercise where each set gets progressively heavier, yet less reps are performed).


Starting video/stats will be taken tonight after I get home from the gym

wooo!

All my blood work is good, and my test levels are just as high as before my havoc cycle. I feel better than ever before and I know when I'm ready or not. I dont advise others to wait this little inbetween cycles, but I have the feeling this will be just fine :-)

why run the Mdrol at the end?

IMO the beginning would be better because it would "kickstart" the cycle. ten once the SD is over the bold will kick in and the gains will continue, and it will also help to solidify the SD gains. i think overall gains/retention would be better this way. but i could be wrong.

just wondering

Cholesterol is a problem in my family, and I don't feel like playing with an entire fire here...just matches :-).

So, my reasoning would be if I kickstart the bold with Tren, have the bold kick in nicely just before I hit the SD, I will get all the mass I physically CAN add, and then get my cholesterol back to normal asap. I don't like the idea of my cholesterol being over 300(possibly, not that it WILL happen) for 8 full weeks.

Ah okay, you're right, I've been doing some reading on Trenadrol and people seems to be saying they can't be sure what is in it, and the dose seems weird like it used be to 3 mg and then it got replaced to 30 mg, because of something that has to with the FDA. I don't know what is happening behind all this, but at this moment I probably wouldn't trust Trenadrol very much.

Yeah, I'm very torn on Trenadrol. Everyone who has used it since they changed the label to 30mg has had nothing but good to say about it with minimal sides. On the other hand I don't like putting unknown substances into my body.

oral-turinabol is a halodrol clone, no?


why run 40mg? seems a bit low...i wasn't impressed with halodrol-50 at 50mg/day



600mg/day of bold+ oral turinabol would be a great LEAN mass builder. The extra hunger from bold is whats really gonna make you GAIN on that cycle. HD is more for recomp imo

Ok, day 1 is in the record books. So far I've eaten 344grams of carbs, 363 grams of protein, and 82 grams of fat. Still have 1 meal left so hitting 350/400/100 will be no sweat.


Today I did Hamstrings and Calves(my shortest workout day)

Hamstrings:
Laying Leg Curl: 1x160x12, 4x170x12
Individual Leg Curl: 4x80x12
Horizontal Leg Press: 4x160(not exact weight...pulley machine)x12

Calves:
Donkey Calf Raise: 6x220x12
45 degree Calf Raise: 5x225x12






Pretty good workout overall...cant wait till the Tren kicks in.

I am running this PH cycle due to the fact that I got the Bold for free(perk of repping) and I wanted to prepare for my first contest this november. I had GREAT results with havoc/prop so I have to admit, I just felt like pushing the envelope.

I am running cycle support, eatting more plain oatmeal than Mr. Quaker himself(helps reduce cholesterol a little), taking a TON of supplemental garlic, Coq10, and 9-12 grams of fishoil a day.


The test+dbol cycle sounds fun...this winter will most likely be my first injectable

I've been dosing COQ-10 once a day (100mg) but I'm only doing 11-OXO and furazadrol... but also taking hawthorne berry, ryr, and policosanol... considering your sick sized stack I'd dose it twice a day... I assume you're taking tons of garlic for cholesterol and/or antioxidant reasons?

antioxidant is only a nice bonus...its for cholesterol lowering and I have a lot of faith in it.


If my cholesterol is out of this world high by 2 weeks after PCT I'll be surprised. I doubt it will be higher than 250 at the highest...and then I will get it well under control within the next few months.

We don't know EXACTLY what it is...but we can make educated guesses.


The pill is already in its active form, so it's not a PH, its a DS.

Users report similar sides/effects to Tren the steroid.

Dinoiii/PA I believe both commented that Trenadrol is similar to actual Tren, however it is slightly different, making it less potent, but incredibly strong nontheless.

Did Ab's/Pecs/Bi's today...


Ab's and Pecs went great...20lbs up on the hammer strength bench press which was nice, however I've started to notice some serious drying of my joints from the trenadrol.


I think the tren was making me lose a LOT of water weight for the first few days (by means of explosive toilet trips) and this may be the direct cause of some wrist pain during biceps today.


I picked up 2 bottles of taurine and 2 bottles of potassium to help

I need to save some $$$ up before I can buy any more supps...so exactly what I've outlined in this log is what I'm using.


OT- im starting my cycle soon, which is similar. i am running the mdrol and bold alone, though. i was planning on running the bold for 6 weeks, and the mdrol for 4. would it be nec. to run my pct for the mdrol while on the bold, or wait till i am done with it? insight is appriciated.
wait until you're done with everything.



YO Vaughn!

Looking good in the vid!

I can just see you now, waiting by the mailbox. JK bro, it will come tomorrow and all will be good.

Your diet is AWESOME! Its nice to see when people consistently getmore than 300g of protein and lots of carbs and fats. Nothing worse than logs of people sho dont know how to eat!

Yeah no kidding! I can't stand it when I see people on a PH stack bitching about not making gains and then finding out they eat 3 small meals a day. Sorry but your body obeys the laws of thermodynamics. You can't create something out of nothing.

Im using the bold+tren to help me lower some bf/gain a few lbs of lean mass, so that by the time I hit the SD, all my gains will be lean and noticeable. I do not want to gain a lot of fat so my contest prep is as easy as possible...I am very prone to cortisol while dieting, so the less hard dieting I have to do, the more muscle I'll have on stage.

While I do agree that lab testing can be altered/faulty, I have no reason to believe that CEL makes anything but some of the best clones on the market. Their cusomter service + online representation is absolutely stellar to say the least, so I wanted to give them the benefit of the doubt and run the hell out of m-drol!


appreciate the diet comment! sure gets old eating like that, but I've gotten pretty used to it.

I throw veggies in here and there(a few times per week), as often as I can, however I do not add these carbs to my totals. I have always had a hard time making myself eat veggies and probably went a good 15 years of my life without eating a single bite.

I find I stay much trimmer when I get all my carbs in before 5pm or so. It also helps me stop carb cravings late at night when I know I can only eat protein/fat. I like keeping my GI as low as possible as often as possible(I buy into GI 100%)

-a multi
-9-12 grams of fishoil a day

Weight is still constant...however bf is definitely lower.

using a caliper and 3 site testing I'm currently at 10.3% Bf according to http://www.linear-software.com/online.html

and I started at 12.3. So although weight is constant...2% bf drop in 2 weeks?


I don't know if I believe it personally.




My fat intake was a little low for a few days as I ran out of a doable fat source, so I just stopped trimming my chicken breast. However, now I've got my smart balance butter back, so a nice tablespoon or two per chicken breast helps add the healthy mono-unsaturated's on nicely.

If you need some flavoring without the cals check out Da Vinci or Torani sugar free syrups... really goes a long long way with oats. I put in an order the other day for 16 bottles of various flavors. I cook my oats, throw in some almonds and raisins at the end and then throw it in a bowl, add two tablespoons of some flavored sugar free syrup, stick it in the freezer for 15-30 and it tastes great.

Splenda + Cinnamon (Great one)

Da Vinci's Sugar Free Syrup (So many flavors including, Chocolate, Peanut Butter, Cookie Dough, Caramel, Butter Toffee, Marshmallow, Butterscotch, and a LOT MORE)

Hood Calorie Countdown Milk (Only 3g of carbs/serving as opposed to 12-13g, still has 8g of protein per serving...only 45 calories per 8oz!!)

And adding protein to the mix (Any good whey, SAN Infusion, Ultra Peptide) will make a big difference.

Ok, so this is day 14 for me.

like I said, weight is constant, however bf% is down about 2%(almost feel bad stating that, but calipers dont lie, and my mirror seems to agree with the bf% drop...2% is just SO much though).




I have decided to use Trenadrol at 60mg/day for the next 5 days, and then bumping the dosage to 90mg/day for the final 7 days of the bottle. So I will be done with the Trenadrol on August 3rd making the bottle last about 24 days total as opposed to 30(which I am fine with).

I will then only be on Bold @ 800mg/day until August 9th when I will begin superdrol@ 20mg/day.


If my body lets me, I would like to run the SD for 4 weeks. If 3 weeks is all I can take, thats what I'll do.

I have noticed a lot of people can't find the tren xtreme on the web for less than 100 and brag about going to max muscle and paying 60-70, for all of those people if they would put together vegas sports nutrition, with the standard www and com, I think they would be VERY happy.

Strength gains: they're definitely there. I'm up 20lbs on squats for reps of 12. I don't go SUPER heavy on squats as I get a much better burn/pump from not using 100% range of movement, and never stopping to rest in either the complete up/down position. So I was doing 225x12 for barbell squats, and now I am able to do 245x12 and its easy. So next week I'll bump it up to 265 and see how things go.


(I didn't see your post on the last page about tren xtreme, my bad!)

I went with trenadrol just because of all the amazing reports over at DA. Can't argue with EVERY big name over there loving it, so I figured eh...what the hell.

Just for reference, or a different opinion, all of the nutritionalists and sports nutrition professors I've talked with are of the opinion that fruits such as bananas and apples are actually complex carbs.
I believe their reasoning is based on the high fiber content and that fact that the GI from the carbs in an apple is like 23, which is close to as low as you can go.

Milk also has a really low GI, even though lactose is a sugar, because of the slow digestion of the protein and fat that is also in milk.

So basically what I'm saying is that you might look into expanding your diet if not for a more complete nutrition (vitamins/minerals, fiber and other phytochemicals) then maybe just for variety.

Good luck with the cycle, I'll be following!

I don't know if it is from the Bold or from the Trenadrol, but I am so beyond lethargic I don't know what to do with myself.

If I don't get 9 hours of sleep, I can't function, and even then I'm dying for a midafternoon nap :(





gotta sleep to grow though I guess

Just for reference, or a different opinion, all of the nutritionalists and sports nutrition professors I've talked with are of the opinion that fruits such as bananas and apples are actually complex carbs.
I believe their reasoning is based on the high fiber content and that fact that the GI from the carbs in an apple is like 23, which is close to as low as you can go.

Milk also has a really low GI, even though lactose is a sugar, because of the slow digestion of the protein and fat that is also in milk.

So basically what I'm saying is that you might look into expanding your diet if not for a more complete nutrition (vitamins/minerals, fiber and other phytochemicals) then maybe just for variety.

Good luck with the cycle, I'll be following!
I forgot to comment on that before. Fructose isn't a high GI simple carb, although bananas contain a combination of fructose and sucrose depending on how ripe they are. By giving up fruit you're losing out on all the nutrients you get from them, plus they're tasty :)

Lactose is a low GI simple carb but milk actually causes a pretty big insulin spike. When consumed with low GI food (chicken or oats for example) that insulin spike will be blunted just like high GI foods.

how are all the sides? how are you feeling throughout the day? you mentioned lethargy, that sucks. I know for me that makes me not want to use one of these if its going to do that.

do you have any extra energy? anxiety? sweats etc?

how would you compare these compounds to Havoc feeling?

The ONLY side I've felt as of yet is lethargy, but in all honesty, I normally need more sleep than the average person to begin with.


I quit smoking the good stuff just before I started this stack, and my body just still isnt used to not taking all the naps I used to take when I was stoned.




I think Trenadrol/Bold = just as good a recomp if not better than Havoc.

I gained more weight on the Havoc, but my muscle hardness/bf% has been great so far...cant wait to hit the SD.



I think the avg person would gain more weight than I have so far just because my diet is SO clean...I'd suggest this as a recomp with a little dirtyness in your diet in all honesty.

Loving the cycle so far

I am considering running the SD a little earlier than planned.


I need to start contest prep in september(about the 5th) and I just don't think I'll have enough time to solidify the SD gains if I wait much longer.


This is what my original stack was going to be

Weeks 1-2: Bold @ 800mg/day, Tren @ 60mg/day
Week 3-3.5: Bold @ 800mg/day, Tren @ 90mg/day
Week 4: Bold @ 800mg/day
Weeks 5-7: Bold @ 800mg/day M-drol @ 20mg/day
Week 8(POSSIBLE): Bold @ 800mg/day, M-drol @ 20mg/day




My stack started on July 9th, and I think I might want to switch this stuff around now(yea, I know...not the best idea to change stuff, but oh well!)

What about this


July 9th - 24th: Bold @ 800mg/day, Tren @ 60mg/day
July 25th - August 3rd : Bold @ 800mg/day, Tren @ 90mg/day, Mdrol 20mg/day
August 4th - August 25th : Bold @ 800mg/day, Mdrol 20mg/day
August 26th - September 4th : Bold @ 800mg/day





Some quick reponses would be great as I'd like to hop on this tomorrow

Kernkraft
07-24-2007, 04:12 PM
If you must do it... keep the tren at 60mg's, bridge the M-drol at 10mg and go from there. I don't see any problems with going a week or two ahead of schedule. 8 weeks is a long ass cycle anyways and that's pushing it.

In fact I don't see the point of coming off the M-drol and going one last week of bold unless you plan on tapering off that week.

Personally if I did this I'd stick to the original plan and get rid of week 8... that should still fit the September 4th plan right?

Yea, I am nervous about the lethargy, but I really don't think it will knock me out to the point of not being able to take it. I don't have much to do during the days these days, and if I start noticing bad lethargy, ill back it down to 10mg i suppose

Started to practice some posing tonight at my gym with the owner...shows me just how much damn practice/work I have in store for me...yet couldn't be more excited.


I have finally decided how to run this cycle(better late then never eh?) so I can maximize gains, and still start cutting on time.


I will continue taking Tren @ 90mg/day until August 2nd. I will then start the Mdrol on the 3rd, and continue to run it until the 24th of August. I will continue running Bold all the way until September 10th, which is actually 8 days into the start of my cut(10 weeks out).

I know most people say don't cut so quickly after a cycle, well too damn bad. I'm running it the way I want, and I am 99.9% positive this will work out for the best this way(leaving me the leanest/biggest possible for the show).

How are the lifts going, I saw that you said weight is holding pretty steady but you are getting a little leaner... are you still uping the weights/reps? Give us a glimpse at how far you have progressed so far. Pick a couple of your compound movements and give us a before/up to now progress report. Not trying to pick apart your diet/routine but I noticed you're not reallly taking in many carbs post workout(around 20 in the ipower) you MAY want to add a few more becasue they won't hurt you there and may help with the lbm gains. Keep up the good work VT.

ALL of my lifts have progressively gone up. I am up about 6.5lbs now, and still gaining steadily.

I do not max out, EVER, so to tell you just how much my lifts have improved is a little challenging.

I do everything with 10-12 reps, and on every one of those exercises I've gone up 15-20lbs(even isolation exercises).

Military press: before - 55lbs, currently 70lbs
Squats: before - 245lbs for reps, currently 275lbs for reps
Hammer Pec Deck: before - 225 for reps, currently 250lbs for reps



everything has gone up. Start the sd in 6 days...wooo!

I'm finishing up PCT for a small/short (4 weeks) cycle of 11 0XO, so I'm about a month to two months out from starting my BOLD cycle. Question is, when i start BOLD, is it worth it to run an NO booster or creatine also? Or will these just be overkill/useless. I'm sure there's probably no harm, just wondering what your thoughts would be.

9 lbs + 4 lbs(estimated 2% fat loss but weight remained contant) = 13 pounds in a month. Those are some extremely impressive results but I think the thing that is really making all of this possible is your diet. Great job VT, all of those chicken breasts everyday are starting to really pay off. Let this be a big lesson for all of the young builders. Scroll back a few pages and check out his diet. He is taking in chicken breast 7-8 times a day. If you want results, that is the type of diet you need to maintain. Shakes are SUPPLEMENTS.

This SD should be insane, can't wait to see the results. Thanks for the updates on the working weights the other day, that is all I was asking for... I hardly ever max out either. The only time I ever really max out is if I can get together a few of my old training partners and really amp it up, but we are all so busy now it doesn't happen too often. Impressive results... I figure about 13 pounds and 20-30 pounds on all your working weights, thats a big jump.

Bold is a great supplement by itself, no question...this cycle wouldn't have been 1/2 as good without it, however the Tren really did impress me.


The one thing I didn't like was how quickly the tren was dehydrating me. I was starting to get some kidney pains despite my urine being clear, so I upped my total water intake to about 2.5+ gallons/day. All pain has subsided and back to gettin big.

Appreciate the kind words! Always nice when other people recognize your hard work(never seems to happen off the computer though eh haha)

My diet was key to this cycle, I know that 100%. On days that I slacked(I had 2 slack days) I noticed I began to bloat/flatten out IMMEDIATELY.

The real key to getting big is to do as Jay Cutler does...eat more meat than you can afford, and pound oatmeal like its your job.

SD should be nuts...I'm upping my carbs quite a bit for it, gonna be taking in 4 oatmeal shakes a day, each at 108 grams of carbs/20grams of protein. I have also been adding more veggies into my diet despite my disgust of all things green.

My diet is very similiar to yours with slightly more variety (steak and potato here and there, more carbs post workout) and it is incredible the amount my weight differs at night from morning. I always go by when I first wake up and have an empty stomach, here is an example of the difference when I trained back/shoulders on friday.

7 AM - 208.8 straight out of bed
6 PM - 216.4! same scale(very good/accurate)... pwo after meal and shower

All of that food and water really adds up so don't let it fool you, although it does feel nice to see the higher numbers. If somebody asks I always go with the higher one as well :) I have made it all the way up to 225(12% bf) a couple of years ago, but then got hit with a wrist injury. Usually whenever I start approaching the 220 mark and pushing personal bests I tweak something and have to take time off. Currently I have a left elbow that is bugging me on 3 exercises (skull crushers, french press, behind the neck db raises) so I can't work them, which blows but atleast it is only those 3. I love training heavy(5-8) but I am forcing myself to lower the weights and shoot for the 10-12 rep range that you employ because I think I can keep my joints a little healthier.

A little tip for VT as well as those follwoing along. I know exactly where my injury came from and I want to warn you guys about it. Bob Cicherillo helped me with this one and I know a lot of people love these exercises, but should consider replacing them with db/camber bar versions OR use lighter weights.

1. Barbell Curls - I know this hurts because everyone loves sticking a plate or more on each side and really showing off... it always gets people looking BUT a straight bar(barbell) puts your wrists in an extremely akward/un-natural position at the top. I recommend sticking to db curls OR using a cambered bar... I know it doesn't look nearly as good as that big olympic bar but I would trade this elbow injury for a little less recognition in the gym anyday.

2. Skull Crushers - This one isn't as bad because most people do it the safer way, unless they are trying to save time and superset with Barbell curls like I was on that fateful day about a month ago. Again, stick with the cambered bar(like most do) and your fine but I was supersetting and just thought it would be quicker and ok to use my olympic bar I had with a plate per side already loaded for BB curls. WRONG again your wrists naturally curl and if you force them to do something un-natural with heavy wieghts it usually doesn't end up good.

Keep the food going down and the weight going up VT, good job.

Great thread VT! I've been lurking on this one for a while. Quick question, what type of PCT are you going to run after the SD? Keep up the great work, looking phenomenal!

So Nolva + Testabolan + inhibit E correct?
Are you gonna stick with the same dosage of Testabolan during the post cycle or taper off?

Ok...crappy workout tonight due to my back still hurting.


I'm insanely strong at the moment, but just because my muscle can handle it, doesnt mean my back can...so back to the drawing board.


will do my best to have an insane workout tomorrow, but at least I've been eating well.



+14lbs at the moment

every joint in my body is hurting...


its not from the mdrol though, all pre-existing injuries brought on from the strength increase I believe.



also feels as though I have NO estrogen(dry joints) anyone know if this is possible despite Bold being able to aromatize?

I won't pretend to know near as much science as you when it comes to this stuff...i can't answer about aromatization. I will offer my two cents though. If you're looking for an over the counter joint relief formula, you can't go wrong with Animal Flex. I've tried different things for various joint problems I've encountered over the past few years. This product was a miracle for me. If you look around a bit, you can find it cheap.

Sorry for sounding like I'm trying to push a product, I'm not a rep for anyone. But I strongly endorse this and recommend it often.

Either way, hope you find a way to take care of the problem, joint pain can be a MAJOR inconvenience.

even if bold aromatizes, it's not classified as wet. The gains are always dry and lean, so it would do little to mitigate the affects of Tren and Superdrol. And consider the strength increases (tren and SD should be pretty potent) and i would be surprised if you didn't get the joint pain.

nothing risked, nothing gained... your picture looks great, i like your delts

Gonna lighten up on the weights a little bit and go for more muscle concentration as opposed to gross moving...hopefully get some nice separation from it.

I have made it all the way up to 225(12% bf) a couple of years ago, but then got hit with a wrist injury. Usually whenever I start approaching the 220 mark and pushing personal bests I tweak something and have to take time off.

Be very careful vaughn... like I said you will start to feel all of those nagging little things as you enter new territory... for me it's my wrists and elbows.

Lightening the load is definently the way to go like you said you were going to, don't let your ego get in the way... god knows I have before :)

Great freakin progress man. I'm impressed at the numbers/looks gotten from the tren + Bold. Keep it up, and be safe. Don't want to hurt yourself cause I want to see where this log goes. lol.

btw. Is the "dull pain" throughout the groin and the testicles? If I were to wager a guess, I'd say it is due slightly to your testes shutting down and also the lack of estrogen. On a related note: how's the libido?

It is a dull ache...only way I can describe it. It was very obvious the other day, but since then I haven't felt it.


My libido is great...1-3 times daily.

i had that "dull ache" when i took havoc about 2 weeks into it. I asked around alot and no one seemed to have any idea. I presumed it was shutdown of testes, but it scared me.


btw thanks for keeping up the great log. Its inspirational. I wish i could get myself to eat as much chicken as you are shoveling in!

Last week i took the plunge on Bold + P - plex. so far nothing too exciting, but i love the way the Bold stimulates the hunger and has few sides (so far anyway).

quick question though, i tried the testabolan and it gives me crazy lethargy... i guess i'm pretty sensitive to all these products, but is it normal for the testabolan to knock me out teh way it does? i cant take it as a result as i literally cant stay awake 4-5 hrs after taking.

does that make any sense at all?

lol sorry for leaving everyone high and dry...


I moved finally(search around for my crazy landlord thread), and in doing so was without internet for almost 2 weeks!


So...how is the cycle going?


I hit a max weight of 224lbs(up 20lbs) near the end of the SD. A few pounds were water/who knows what else and I have been resting comfortably at 220-221lbs since I came off.



Coolest part? I've been using the cut diet for the past 7 days, and have started to lose bodyfat...but my weight isnt changing at all :D



This contest prep is gonna be fun

Wow nice cycle! Correct me if I'm wrong, but that would be 9 lbs pre-Superdrol and about 11 lbs after?

just about...



I still have another 9 days left on Bold :D...onto PCT, and then REALLY pushing the limit by using 11oxo from October 18th-November 18th for contest prep.

That was an awesome log man. I keep getting the urges to add some kind of SD to my BOLD stack. Luckily my friends keep telling me not to b/c its my first PH. You gained some crazy weight. I hope i start putting on the lbs soon with BOLD. What does your cut diet look like? I need to loose some BF stat man. lol. Nice job man, great training!

I'll be on bold for another 4-5 days, then start into my pct which is nolva/inhibit-e. I will then begin 11oxo on october 18th @ either 9 or 10 pills a day.

My supp stack other than that is pretty basic...Yohimbine@ 20mg/day, MultiVit, Vitamin C,


Might throw a fat burner in at the end...but I've never been impressed with a fat burner


Diet is the Cut Diet 3000 followed EXACTLY.

Training is what it always is for now... 12 setsx 12 reps for 2-3 musclegroups/day...deep and heavy.

Anyone know why this has happened? Or how to get around it?
