As mentioned in my last post, I would be posting a progress update. Last I checked in I was just coming off two competitions (I entered Classic Physique Class B--182ib max weight, and Masters 35+). In the first competition, the New England Championships, I took 3rd in Class B and 2nd in Masters--this was my first competition ever. In the second competition, the Jay Cutler Classic, I took 8th in both classes but I think this comes with an asterisk as they combined classes to make things move quicker due to this being a "double comp" in that two separate competitions were combined and thus twice the participants were in attendance; therefore I was lumped in with Class C in addition to there being an astoundingly large number of competitors. Overall, I think these results are quite (very) good for an outright rookie. I have included a few pictures from the time period for reference. I weighed in at 175ish for both comps, 182 is max weight for the class.
After the contest I was careful with my diet--allowing myself to enjoy the holidays but not making it a non-stop crap fest. The result was a recomp with little added fat, but enough to feel healthy and energetic again. Like sex was back on the menu, which you know... was nice.
I began a light bulk in early March-- I posted about it here. I broke it into two phases due to some life-related circumstances, but overall was a success in terms of what I need to accomplish (weighing in at 182 on the nose next comp with better conditioning). The first run (6 weeks) was:
Test E/C: 400/week
NPP: 200/ week4
20mgs cardarine gw/ed
50mgs ostarine mk2866/ed
10mgs lgd4033 anabolicum/ed
Second run (4 weeks) was Test E 400/week, NPP 200/week and Mast 300/week (this combo actually worked very well, the mast seemed to tighten everything up and gave a good sense of well-being).
I have no been back on TRT 100/week for 4 weeks. I am weighing in at 191-192, still lean. Pics included.
Curious on everyone's thoughts. My plan would be to do a small 4-week lean-bulker in October-- not sure what however.
