My Epistane Cycle (Journal)

[Jigsaw-Man]

I accidently posted this in the wrong section, this is a re-post and I will continue the log from here.

This thread will be working as my online journal as I run my first ever Pro Hormone. After tons of research I have made my decision to run Epistane as my first cycle. I will be documenting all of my progress and side effects in this thread over the course of the next 9 weeks, along with pictures, stats, etc...

Here is what I will be running for my Pre-Load, On Cycle, and Post Cycle Therapy. Feel free to comment on what I'm taking and how much and when. I have asked many PH users and they feel I should be just fine with this cycle, and should see some decent gains. I will be starting my first day tomorrow on December 29th.

Week 1 (Pre-Load)
1 scoop Cycle Support ED

Week 2 (On Cycle)
20mg Epistane ED
2 scoop Cycle Support ED

Week 3
20mg Epistane ED
2 scoop Cycle Support ED

Week 4
20mg Epistane ED
2 scoop Cycle Support ED

Week 5
30mg Epistane ED
2 scoop Cycle Support ED

Week 6 (PCT)
1 scoop Cycle Support ED
4 POST Cycle Support Pills ED
3 I3C (Indole-3-Carbinol) Pills ED
2-4 1.5g Kre-Alklyn Pills ED

Week 7
1 scoop Cycle Support ED
4 POST Cycle Support Pills ED
3 I3C (Indole-3-Carbinol) Pills ED
2-4 1.5g Kre-Alklyn Pills ED

Week 8
4 POST Cycle Support Pills ED
3 I3C (Indole-3-Carbinol) Pills ED
2-4 1.5g Kre-Alklyn Pills ED

Week 9

Here is the template I will be using...

Current Weight:

Supplements Taken:

Diet:

Workout:

My Thoughts:

I won't be posting every tiny thing I eat nor the times I eat it, nor will I be posting every rep I lift or the weight I lifted it at. This journal will be focusing more on the "My Thoughts" section more than stats. I have yet to see an Epistane Cycle Journal that explained in detail what was happening to the user. As a newbie myself, I hope other noobs can learn a great deal and have some of their questions answered from what I post in this journal.

I will be weening off of every supplement that is not Protein or a Multi-Vitamin, such as Creatine so that I will be clean on Day 1 of the cycle. Though Creatine will be re-introduced in the PCT stage.

I will try to post everyday on my progress however as time goes on, I may start posting every other day. Staying on top of this for 9 weeks will prove a challenge. I will be posting pictures tomorrow (Dec. 29th) so you can see what I looked like before Pre-Load, after On-Cycle, then again after PCT.

PS: Yes I know I don't work my legs, and yes I know that I should, no need to bring it up.

If I can help just 1 person with this journal then I will feel like it was all worth it. So pop your heads in every once in awhile and we can see how Epistane will effect me together, I'm curious to see what happens myself.

[Jigsaw-Man]

So far no comments lol, no problem I will still continue my journal.

Here are today's preload pictures, just so you can see me right before I started the preload. If you have seen my avatar shots then you can see some how I've gotten fatter since last July/Aug. Not sure how, my diet hasn't changed that much. It could be from the ON 2:1:1 Recovery shakes I drink post workout, 2 scoops is over 400 calories. Or maybe it's water weight from the Kre-Alkalyn, maybe I just look fat and soft because I'm bloated.

Either way I hope I can get my bodyfat% down a bit, I'm one frustrated endomorph who's body LOVES to hang on to fat for some reason.

Anyways, here's my pictures and some random shots of the supplements I will be using.

I will be posting the log one day late because I can't discuss today's event when the day isn't even over, heh. So look for Monday's log tomorrow











First Thoughts on the supplements:

Epistane: Comes in a pretty black and white bottle with a neat green logo. The capsules are pretty small and completely filled with white powder. I can definatley smell the sulfur but its not as bad as other people said.

Cycle Support: OMG it's a freakin tiny little container, from the website I figured it was a couple pounds worth, it's not. The chocolate actually smells pretty good, but I've heard it tastes horrible, I will be taking my first scoop tonight with dinner.

POST Cycle Support: I like the purple/white capsules. It smells like wet burnt firewood lol, pretty nasty in my opinion, thank goodness it's in capsules. 120 capsules came with it.

Indole-3-Carbinol (I3C): Ever take natural herbal remedy style pills? This looks exactly the same, perfectly clear capsules that look like their filled with sand. The first time I smelled the bottle it seriously smelled like tire cleaner. The bottle is made of glass, not plastic, thought that was a cool surprise.

Kre-Alkalyn: These purple guys kinda smell like fresh wall paint. The purple Kre-Alk pills are the same size as the POST Cycle Support.

I must note that I was very impressed by the packaging of the Anabolic Innovations product, seems like a very high quality product.

Date: Monday Dec. 29th

Current Weight: 242 lbs.

Supplements Taken:
1 Scoop Scifit 100% Egg (Morning)
1 Centrum Chewable Multi Vitamin (Morning)
2 Myoplex Regular MRPs (Afternoon)
1 Scoop Scifit 100% Egg (Evening)
1 Scoop Cycle Support (Evening)
1 Centrum Chewable Multi Vitamin (Evening)
1 Scoop ON Casein (Before Bed)

Diet:
730 - Cheerios
Egg Protein Shake (24g Protein)
Centrum Multi Vitamin Chewable
830 - Banana
1000 - Myoplex Regular Shake (42g Protein)
1200 - Turkey/Ham Hoagie w/ 1 Cheddar Slice on White bread (Boo White Bread I know)
Cup of Weight Watchers Yogurt
2 Granolas
300 - Myoplex Regular Shake (42g Protein)
730 - Egg Protein Shake (24g Protein)
1 Scoop Cycle Support
800 - Cheeseburger (I didn't want this for dinner restaraunt messed up my order)
Shrimp
Broccoli
1000 - Centrum Multi Vitamin Chewable
Casein Shake (22g)

Workout: Off Day (Normally I workout back, biceps, and stomach on Mondays, but Christmas screwed up my schedule b/c the gym was closed)

My Thoughts: Cycle Support mixed with Egg Protein shake = the worst tasting substance in the world. I ordered salmon, rice, and steamed broccoli at the restaraunt tonight, and they completely botched my order so they had to take it back. Since I had already waited an hour, I just said give me a stinkin cheeseburger so I can get outa here. The meal was free thankfully but now I feel even fatter.

Good luck bro, I'm running Epistane/Trenadrol starting on the 1st.

I like the different approach you are taking to your log, IMO much more interesting than reading a spreadsheet. I'll be following this one.

[kknecht1]

I think you need to add to your PCT. Postcycle support will not be enough for your epistane cycle. I suggest you ask the other members on the board who have run this hormonal or any PH/DS in general.


I needed to state: **I personally havent run any PH yet**

[mike0093_OLDONE]

You need to do some research, you're not ready for a PH cycle. #1 You won't see any gains on a diet like that. Way to many shakes, not enough real food...Weight Watchers Yogurt?? #2 You're physique is not ready for a PH cycle, you should focus on your diet and wait a year. Shrimp..Broccoli..what? I strongly suggest you wait.

Indeed I have kknecht1, and this is what we came up with. I've been working with Dr. D for some time now, you can review his theories on www.Epistane.com.

Whats wrong with weight watchers yogurt and broccoli? If you think those are a poor choice of foods you might want to research nutrition again my friend.

The shrimp I agree was bad for me, but if you read further down instead of skimping over the important stuff you'd see that the restaraunt made me wait 1 hour for my food, then competely messed it up so bad I couldn't eat it. They said the shrimp and burger could be sent out to me the fastest so thats what I got, I just wanted to get home, it was late.

I normally don't eat crap like shrimp and cheeseburgers, maybe on special occasions but not regularily.

I'm not going to take advice from someone who thinks weight watchers yogurt and broccoli are unhealthy. Next he's going to say chicken, egg whites, and carrots are bad for you too...

Not trying to be a dick, but I mean come on, are snickers and 3 musketeers the next new fad to get in shape?

That. Screw fighting over whats good and bad for you. You need to understand that with your physique you shouldn't be using PH/DS.

DIET, get it right. TRAIN, work your ass off. SLEEP, long and deep. REPEAT.

...supplements should come last, get it all in order, then worry about supps.

Let me tell you something about myself. I have always had love handles and a small gut, ever since I was a kid. I grew up playing soccer, basketball, baseball, and I swam both summer and winter on a swim team that competited for 6 years, and the love handles and small gut never went away.

I joined the ARMY in 2002 and spent 7 months training in Fort Benning Georgia for Basic Training and AIT. I ran a 2 mile in 16 minutes, could do 55 REAL army pushups and 75 situps in 2 minutes. And even then, though I was at my peak physical fitness, I still had love handles and a small gut.

I've never been able to shed it, ever, ever, ever, nor will I without a Michael Jackson budget for surgery and 10 lbs of caffeine while going on a Ethiopian diet. It's genetic and I'm stuck with love handles and a small gut, I've learned to accept it.

The best I can hope for is to get them as small as I can, while building my back and chest up so it will give the appearance of a smaller waist. I can train for the next 10 years and you guys will still say I don't have the physique ready for Epistane or any other DS/PH.

So I'm going to start a cycle now, or I never will....

I think I understand your point. If you're saying don't be a lazy azz and just take a bunch of vitamins thinking you don't have to diet or train properly, then I totally agree with that logic, but you guys make it sounds like you have to get all your ducks in a row before you can even start living. That's just not the true state of reality. I'm sure you can remember a time you lucked out and accomplished something that you didn't think you would, right? That proves my point, life is happening right now (not tomorrow) whether you're prepared for it or not! If you wait till "your ready" you might never achieve anything significant. If I waited to get rich before I had kids, or waited to get my diet right before I started training, or whatever, I would still be waiting. You live life and you learn from your experiences. That's how you learn and excel, through real living. You might think you know what a good diet is, but I promise you it will be different a year from now. Why? Because you live and learn and constantly improve with new information. How do you gather that information? Research, trial, error, refinement. It's no different for a beginner, because you gotta start somewhere. Sleep is good, but it isn't as important as training. Training is important, but it's not as important as consistency, etc.. Just get out there and do something, you can fine tune after you actually start, because that's how life works whether you've figured that out yet or not. Be confidant in your ability to succeed and adapt. You guys are probably smart enough to overcome more mistakes than you think.

Ahh finally someone said what I couldn't. As always thanks for your words of wisdom and truth brother!

[joeysby]

hey bro, its your body and you can do whatever you feel will work for you!


the guys are just saying your diet need work, thats all. i agree that you could get into great shape without PH, then when you DO decide to use it, you will see the best results. but its your choice, im dont like the slow way either .


yes those foods are healthy for the most part. fresh fruits and veggies are crucial.


but when on a PH cycle you should be consuming at least 1gram of protein per pound of body weight. and whey is a good choice, but make whole food protien a staple at your big 3 meals. i HIGHLY recommend throwing in some healthy fats in there aswell (natty PB, olive oil, ect).


i will be running the same stuff you have in a month or so.



i wish you the best of luck.

Youre right and wrong, but I won't argue because I agree more than disagree and very nice post.

However, to the OP, I get the feeling that you are using the PH Epistane as a shortcut, and there are no shortcuts in this game. Hardwork, dedication, solid dieting, and consistency will get you there. Plus you won't need to take the risks of the PH, especially with a PCT like that.

But Good Luck, I hope you do gain something from this cycle, and I only hope that it is a deeper appreciation for the people who were trying to help you before you screwed up your body/didn't get results from your money spent.

I used to think a lot like most of these fellas when i was younger, I over-trained big time and every little thing had to be just right, diet, time of day, amount of sleep, macros, etc.. but after enough living you come to see what really matters. Consistency! Consistency is the single biggest factor. More than diet, more than style of training, more than different supps and shakes, more than extra sleep on training nights, whatever. All that stuff is a real consideration, I'm not saying it's not, but just having any plan and doing it consistently is the key. Even if the plan sux, it's better than doing nothing while you wait to be ready. If you're honest with yourself, you realize your NEVER as ready as you wanna be for anything. It's just an excuse to live in fear and do nothing.

I didn't say it was unhealthy, I said it's not what you need to be eating. You simple just wrote "Broccoli" "Shrimp". Genetics may have something to do with it, if you did Cardiovascular exercise 5 days a week, and ate a proper diet you would lose the love handles and the gut. Your protein sources should be meat,fish,turkey,chicken,eggs and whey. Carb sources oats, brown rice, whole wheat bread/pasta, fruits and veggies. Fats - EVOO, PB/AB, Fish Oil. You don't need crap like "Weight Watchers Yogurt", granola bars, and Myoplex crap. You don't even have your Carbs listed..or the RIGHT PCT. I'm not trying to flame I'm trying to save you from wasting your time, money and body. Good Luck!

Yes, agreed my friend. Great point wj. There are no shortcuts in any game, none that yield a lasting result at least. I just got a different impression about this man and didn't think he had that mind set. I think many young guys do think that they can find strength in a bottle though, and they will learn for themselves the principle of easy come easy go. Anything worth having requires a struggle, or no pain no gain as some people say.

I wish you were right about doing cardio 5 days a week and ate a proper diet. I did this for 7 months at Ft. Benning and yes I did slim down in bodyfat, but the handles and a lil gut were still there. Been down that road...

I agree with your protein/carb/fats list, very good list in fact. I disagree with the yogurt and myoplex being crap comment, but agree the granola's have too much sugar.

I do have carbs listed and I am on the right PCT.

I disagree that I'm wasting my time, money, and body...... because I'm learning...

I'm kinda bummed you opted against the pulse route, but I understand why you'd want to go the more traditional way. It's pretty unbelievable the amount of flaming ppl are giving you. I know plenty of diesel 20 year olds who are less ready for steroids than you are. You seem dedicated and have a plan. Like Dr. D said, if you stay consistent after your cycle you should be able to keep around 75% of your gains. Consistency is the key. The whole waiting for your genetic potential argument never really held water for me anyways. Steroids would not have much allure or purpose if you waited til you were jacked as hell naturally before you took them. Anyhow, good luck. Ill try to check in.

Thanks Fayd, ya I feel like I'm on fire with all the heat I've been getting lol. Thats ok though, b/c I will fail or succeed without them either way. When it comes down to it, we are all alone unless we have the Lord on our side, one day all of the outside voices will simply fade away.

But it's always nice having encouragement from friends like you and Dr. D!

PS: Lets see how this first cycle goes, maybe we'll do pulse in a few months

[Jigsaw-Man]

Date: Tuesday Dec. 30th

Current Weight: 240 lbs.

What I'm currently listening to: Bush

Cycle Supplements Taken:
1 Scoop Cycle Support (Morning) Gag!!

Diet:
730 - Cheerios
Egg Protein Shake (24g Protein)
Centrum Multi Vitamin Chewable
1 Scoop Cycle Support
830 - Banana
1000 - Myoplex Regular Shake (42g Protein)
1200 - Turkey/Ham Hoagie w/ 1 Cheddar Slice on White bread
Cup of Weight Watchers Yogurt
2 Granolas
300 - Myoplex Regular Shake (42g Protein)
600 - 3 Packets of Plain Oatmeal
900 - 2 Chicken Breasts on the George Foreman Grill
Protein Bar (20g Protein)
1030 - Casein Shake (22g Protein)

Workout: Ran 1 mile
10 minutes of eliptical moderate pace
6x12 Tricep Pulldowns (EZ Bar, both inward and outward)
2x12 Bicep Curls (for fun)
3x10 Assisted Tricep Dips
2x10 Trap Shrugs

My Thoughts: I normally don't work out on Tuesdays, but Christmas pushed everything back a day. I will go to the gym tomorrow and Thursday to get back on schedule. I normally overtrain/bulk for 3 weeks at a time, then I take 1 week and do hardcore cardio with minimal to no lifting to give my body some time to heal back up. This week was supposed to be my cardio week which is why I ran and did eliptical first. Also I was missing my Tricep day last week so I was making up for it.

I had a rough day at work, between the flaming on bb.com and our computer systems going down and 5 people having to go home because I couldn't get them back up in time, it was stressful. After talking to Dr. D and my HR Manager at work who used to compete in bodybuilding, they both got me re-inspired.

I tried taking the Cycle Support in apple sauce and peanut butter this morning but neither worked, it was still horrible. I wish I could buy some empty capsules and make my own, the powder tastes like donkey azz!
