Approved Log 15 week cutting cycle Log

I do 3 heavy working sets like roid said, after that my drop sets are all high volume moderate- lite weight sets.

I've found for my body I fill out and grow the best by doing heavier working sets for mass and adding the volume for sculpting and shaping my body

 

[RoidRage69]

Just wondering tho why only 3 working sets per exercise

Because I think you need to see what real muscle failure feels like with higher intensity. Each week increase the reps per set or the weight. 12 sets is plenty to grow on. Worked for Dorian and many others. Even Samson only does 12 sets for chest and he is next in line to win multiple Olympia titles.

I'll try it out, I'm a big fan of Dorian and menzter, but I have never gone and tried the less sets method that both preach, I suppose it's just because I am too comfortable doing high volume, but I'll try it out brother.

Got to do what is uncontrollably hard brother especially if you want results and be something some day and under the lights.

When you are uncomfortable in life that is when the real growth happens.

So reps 6 to 12 and beyond with straight weights on every set?

You talking about the working sets or thr volume sets

You talking about the working sets or thr volume sets

Sorry im alittle stupid, can you lay it out for me, how many sets and the rep ranges I'm shooting for

Exercise 1, Incline barbell
Exercise 2, flat dumbell fly
Exercise 3. Flat plateloaded press
Exercise 4. Cable flye

 

[Noah Wixx]

For the plate press and Incline Barbell I'd do 3 heavy sets 8-12 reps on those and follow it with moderate weight and high volume 3 sets of 15-20 reps

That's how I do my workouts and structure my routine from time to time.

All the other movements you can just hit volume on since DB Fly going heavy on that could be a big injury imo because of the nature of the movement.

others might structure it differently but that is how I would set it up.

you can also try DB Pullover it's a great chest movement I really like it, I do 55lbs and 60lbs just 2 sets 10-12 reps

Ah ok i see now. Ill try it out. Tbh I kinda just thought that's what I've been doing even with doing a drop set at rep 6. I do the heaviest I can for six drop the weight by 5 to 10lbs and continue with another 6. That puts me in the 12 reps category.

But I'll definitely try this scheme of yours out. I feel like my body has adapted to the pyramid drop sets I've been doing over the last 15 weeks, and I need to change the variables, somehow to make it more intense.

 

[Noah Wixx]

This is my exact push movements and sets when I'm not pushing volume this is heavier weight on these, for one week I will do heavy weight next weeks workouts I drop weight and go high volume and repeat the cycle for my ppl split.

When I do go for volume it's 3x15, 5x15 or 5x10 for my sets and rep ranges sometimes 3x20 for examples.


Barbell Bench Press 3 sets 6, 10 ,12

Incline Dumbbell Press (Drop Angle Down Each Set 3 sets 10,8,6

Decline Dumbbell Flys 2 sets 12,10

Dumbbell Pullover 2 sets 12,10

Close Grip Bench Press 2 sets 12,10

One-Arm Overhead Extensions 2 sets 12,10

V-Grip Pressdow to 2 sets 12,10

BentOvr Dumbbell Lateral Raise 2 sets 12,10

Side Cable Raises 2 sets 12,10

Leg Raises 4x25> 2 sets, 2 x 25

Ab Crunches 4x25 to 2 sets, 2 x 25

Give it a shot man it has worked for me, this current log I have up on evo compared to last years log I ran on evo, I am way stronger this time on cycle then I was last year, im running roughly the same mgs as well as the same compounds 600mg total 300 primo 300 test e for my cycle, only thing I switched was how I do my workouts and movements. I was beating myself up to much first cycle and got weaker this time I did less volume and more heavy weights for less sets and reps, and when I did decide to reintroduce volume I can lift way heavier weights for more reps and sets because I changed my plan of attack.

Sick bro thanks for the layout, I'll think on it and construct something "different" than what I'm doing now. Kinda on a snag these last couple weeks and I think my body has adapted. Hitting a snag on 225lb on Incline, I'm thinking I need to go down to 185 for straight sets, just to change it. The gains are still flowing in the body, but weights and rep increase are slowing down a bit.

That's a great plan, in my experience dropping weight and repping more sets at a lower weight increased my muscular endurance and actually made me stronger.

Happy to help anytime brother

yes, I need the volume, I neeeeed it...I'm a fiend and I need it..lol

But yeah man as for the diet, there is no change from what I posted originally. I generally eat the same diet I posted pretty much every day I workout. I have protein pancakes the days off and fill the rest of the calories with chicken and fruit smoothies, and raw vegetables. Keeps my liver nice and healthy. My diet is all about convenience, calories, and nutrients.

@doomslayer28 get some meal pics up so we can see its the same bro please

you do need volume thats key

 

[doomslayer28]

Here's a picture of me on my last cut and cardio numbers I put up, all running and cycling, no lifting, weighing about 205lbs at 6"2, I'm about 210lbs now 5lbs heavier.

600mg of testosterone cypionate
400mg of masteron enanthate
50mg of winstrol
25mg of mk677

I wonder how it will turn out with a fully dosed cycle, tbh this was supposed to be a cut but I really don't want to drop my calories haha

@doomslayer28 you look great , lean and tight in the older pics, thats Ronnie coleman abs style that you have it seems bro
i think this cut will be better but you gotta cut your calories and get diet tight

Yeah my abs are not the best they're purely from cardio in that pic. They're better in the present, but I gotta man up and do abs at some point...some point.

I'm decided I'm gonna run

400mg of trenbolone E (never ran trenbolone on a cut or doing heavy cardio like running and cycling, so we'll see if that stays)
400mg testosterone C
400mg of masteron E
50mg of winstrol
50mg of anadrol
50mg of proviron
25mg of mk677
20mg of cardarine
