Approved Log Maintenance to Cutting Cycle Journal

[Farmboy]

Hello friends, this will be my second log on EVO with my first being a low dose Test 350 weekly cycle with a small amount of var in the first few weeks. I initially hit a plateau with this cycle at around week 8, sitting at 221lbs that I eventually broke through by leveraging up my diet through clean carb sources. I’m sitting just under 233lbs now and will post a physique update from a few days ago on my second post.

I am seeking guidance on how best to do a maintenance phase before transitioning into a gentle cutting phase. I am on TRT so no unpleasant pct stuff for me.

My intention is to allow my body to solidify the added muscle before shifting into a ramping caloric deficit. On hand I have the typical test e, clen, t3, Nolva and HCG. The HCG is a prescription add on to help add some size and volume back to the boys as the wife wants them around . I have used HCG in the past and did not struggle with it.

Training.
Push/Pull/Iso support with legs split per day- Isolation exercises split in, on a 8 day rotation with 4 on shift (2 days 2 nights) and 4 off. Every muscle group gets hit twice in 8 days with some small groups getting hit slightly more depending on recovery and progress. Some single area iso movements (right arm only tricep pushdowns) have been implemented to help lagging areas catch up

Less compromises will be made with training on this run as I have established a better equipped home gym to support the shift worker lifestyle. Cardio on a industrial machine will now become a regular occurrence beginning at 20minutes moderate intensity 5 days of the 8 day rotation

Diet
Protein 235
Fat 60-65
Carb Approx 300 supported by oats and lentils

Meal prep is established and repeatable

Supplements
Co Q-10 (new addition this run, cardiovascular benefits I’m told)
Omega fish oils 1200mg
Milk thistle 450 mg
NAC 1000mg
Red Yeast 1000mg
BCAA 8g
Vit C 1500mg
Melatonin 10 mg

Gear (available, not necessarily in use)
Test E 350mg/week (mon/fri) (will maintain for a maintenance period before walking it back to around 200mg on the same schedule
Clen 100mcg tabs
Cytomel 100mcg tabs
Nolvadex* 10mg ED while test is raised above 200mg weekly
HCG 600iu weekly, wed/sun

As photographed, all gear other than the last scraps of the Nolva and the pharma HCG are from @pur-pharma-canada. I have had a great experience with these guys and their test is on par with my pharma stuff for having absolutely NO pip. Love em always

Run design;

How long do you all think a maintenance should be and should I immediately lower the test? I’ve been at the 350mg for 16 weeks so far and can drop down without issue if there isn’t a profound benefit to staying at this level when not eating in a massive surplus.

After the maintenance is done, how does t3 work in a cut? I am familiar with clen and have enjoyed its benefits in the past but t3 is new to me.

Training modification, I am afraid my high volume stuff will need to be walked back fairly heavily without the support of nutrition and anabolic agents. Once we decide to drop the test back to TRT or TRT+ I’ll likely keep it there until after January. I’m scheduled a full blood panel in November and January so we will see how things are going.

I’m excited to begin my second log and look forward to more EVO family support and guidance

This was the finishing physique from my prior log. I’ve enjoyed a lot of size increases that have been getting a lot of attention from those around me. They credit the “magic lentils” I’m always snacking on at work

The goal of this run is to hammer in some cardio improvements, lower the overall badly fat somewhat and allow my body to adjust to the tissue gain.

Love the new log @Farmboy EVO family big support
Good progress getting from 221 to 233, that’s a solid climb and you did it the right way with clean carbs. For maintenance, hold steady around 350 test a few more weeks if recovery and markers look fine, then bring it back to 200 and let the body settle. A 4 to 6 week maintenance block is usually plenty to lock tissue in before you cut.

When you switch gears, clen will be the first tool since you already know how your body responds, then layer t3 carefully if fat loss stalls. Start low with t3 and don’t rush the dose because it’ll burn through muscle if food and training aren’t aligned. High volume training can stay for now but as food comes down just autoregulate, drop a few sets, and keep the heavy compounds in. You’ve got the setup right with your rotation and blood panels planned, just keep it steady and adjust based on how recovery feels once the test tapers.

Ah thank you very much, I will lock the maintenance phase in then for the 4-6. I have no experience in this regard so I really appreciate the outline

I’ll watch the set volume during the maintenance phase and keep things reasonable. No deficits are planned for this phase so I am optimistic about retaining strength and stamina. I’ll keep everything else ready for the eventual cut and keep logging the progress.

Big thank you brother

big change from the start of your last log. @Farmboy I expect some big things out of you and I believe in you.

 

[rizzlekdizzle]

I;m going from a build (test and deca cycle) into a summer cutting cycle - I have just dropped back to 150-175mg/w Test and am doing fine - still lifting the same (probably deca still running through the system anyway). usually a TRT dose towards the higher end will be enough to maintain. Any reason you aren't looking at another injectable for a cutting cycle? Obviously primo is hard to get but EQ with test can be used for a decent cut. That being said I'm sure it depends on the individual. I ended up losing some BF while gaining lean mass with test and deca - can't complain I guess!

@Farmboy glad to see you got another log started up. I’m sure this will be another successful one. Can’t wait to see where you take it. Big guy.

 

[Farmboy]

Have a look at my tips thread re keeping gains etc for maintenance

Will check it out for sure

That being said I'm sure it depends on the individual. I ended up losing some BF while gaining lean mass with test and deca - can't complain I guess!

It would definitely be better to roll in another injectable but I’m a low and slow guy. In future cycles I can definitely see transitioning into a more advanced cutting phase but this was my first true run with injectables. Slow and chill for this first go at least

 

[Farmboy]

bro dayum clen dose high. @Farmboy my wife tried clen she felt like shit. very dizzy be careful

I will for sure be cutting those in half for the first stretch, 100mcg gonna beat me up

 

[Farmboy]

you are looking good man! the maintenance should be dependent on your lipids and bloods IMO. Assuming you want to do it the healthy way.@Farmboy

Absolutely, I have two rounds of bloods scheduled in the phase, one at the start of November (end of maintenance) one at the middle of January (end of cut, pre bulk baseline and green light)

Slow and safe brother, keeps my pin nurse happy

As photographed, all gear other than the last scraps of the Nolva and the pharma HCG are from @pur-pharma-canada. I have had a great experience with these guys and their test is on par with my pharma stuff for having absolutely NO pip. Love em always

Run design;

How long do you all think a maintenance should be and should I immediately lower the test? I’ve been at the 350mg for 16 weeks so far and can drop down without issue if there isn’t a profound benefit to staying at this level when not eating in a massive surplus.

After the maintenance is done, how does t3 work in a cut? I am familiar with clen and have enjoyed its benefits in the past but t3 is new to me.

Training modification, I am afraid my high volume stuff will need to be walked back fairly heavily without the support of nutrition and anabolic agents. Once we decide to drop the test back to TRT or TRT+ I’ll likely keep it there until after January. I’m scheduled a full blood panel in November and January so we will see how things are going.

I’m excited to begin my second log and look forward to more EVO family support and guidance

this is a great supplement @Farmboy you will do well on it. keep up the good work

Hello friends, this will be my second log on EVO with my first being a low dose Test 350 weekly cycle with a small amount of var in the first few weeks. I initially hit a plateau with this cycle at around week 8, sitting at 221lbs that I eventually broke through by leveraging up my diet through clean carb sources. I’m sitting just under 233lbs now and will post a physique update from a few days ago on my second post.

I am seeking guidance on how best to do a maintenance phase before transitioning into a gentle cutting phase. I am on TRT so no unpleasant pct stuff for me.

My intention is to allow my body to solidify the added muscle before shifting into a ramping caloric deficit. On hand I have the typical test e, clen, t3, Nolva and HCG. The HCG is a prescription add on to help add some size and volume back to the boys as the wife wants them around . I have used HCG in the past and did not struggle with it.

Training.
Push/Pull/Iso support with legs split per day- Isolation exercises split in, on a 8 day rotation with 4 on shift (2 days 2 nights) and 4 off. Every muscle group gets hit twice in 8 days with some small groups getting hit slightly more depending on recovery and progress. Some single area iso movements (right arm only tricep pushdowns) have been implemented to help lagging areas catch up

Less compromises will be made with training on this run as I have established a better equipped home gym to support the shift worker lifestyle. Cardio on a industrial machine will now become a regular occurrence beginning at 20minutes moderate intensity 5 days of the 8 day rotation

Diet
Protein 235
Fat 60-65
Carb Approx 300 supported by oats and lentils

bros this a quality training. the supps looking good! curious how you do on t3 and clen. would rather you go with GLP'1s they far better and safer @Farmboy

Very fair point about the GLPs, I’m definitely behind the times in terms of modern, most effective compound selection. I won’t even try to deny that

Clen has been one of my longest used compounds, back when I was a lifeguard, I’d use clen to get just douchy peeled and walk around the pool. The two most major drawbacks for me are cramping and overheating. The cramping is dealt with through upping taurine but the overheating is killer. That is one of the reasons I’ll cut in the fall/spring, I’ll overheat on anything past 50mcg/daily

I have no experience with t3 whatsoever as I was very worried about its catabolism when I wasn’t on a baseline TRT/low cycle. I’m very open to learning about it and giving at a run but I’m very much looking for suggestions and guidance.

I foresee GLPs in my future for cutting phases for sure

90lbs x 13

Incline bench - first time setting this up at home so form, positioning and efficacy are all questionable. Light weight to avoid injury but I gotta work on every aspect of this style of lift
105lbs x 10

15lbs x 11, three partials, held one sec

Lotta fatigue built up, I will roll the smaller groups like delts, triceps and calves into tomorrows workout.

I will for sure be cutting those in half for the first stretch, 100mcg gonna beat me up

Lotta fatigue built up, I will roll the smaller groups like delts, triceps and calves into tomorrows workout.

Dips for solid sets of 14s and 12s is strong work to start, chest and tris got primed fast. Cable flys and incline bench at home will take some dialing in, but smart move keeping it lighter until the setup feels right. Flat bench into lateral raises gave you that mix of heavy press with pump work, 205 for 9 even feeling heavy is still good pressing. Fatigue is normal with that volume, rolling the smaller groups to tomorrow will let you hit them fresher.

 

[2Thick]

Absolutely, I have two rounds of bloods scheduled in the phase, one at the start of November (end of maintenance) one at the middle of January (end of cut, pre bulk baseline and green light)

Slow and safe brother, keeps my pin nurse happy

Strong arm work, 80lb pushdowns for clean sets shows tricep strength is coming up and those overhead extension supersets had to leave them blown out. Calves and shrugs with 225 moved well too, big volume there. Props on rebuilding the Precor, that’s a grind in itself and now you’ve got a solid cardio piece locked back in. And the floor pic lol you resting

Last day off, back

Bent over barbell rows warmup
70lbs x 20

Seated wide grip cable pulldowns

Curls
70lbs x 12 ez curl bar
90lbs x 10 cable machine
90lbs x 12

125lbs x 9
125lbs x 8, two partials at length

Inverted curls
45lbs x 20
80lbs x 16
80lbs x 15
80lbs x 14

Really solid back day, did fewer barbell rows and instead poured that energy into my seated rows. Great great stretch on the negative, slowed somewhat for that niiice stretch and burn. The cable curls are a mystery to me, feels easier to do than lighter weights on the ez curl bar. Each rep built up a nice pump and burn so I’m happy enough with the magic of cables.

Going well friends

Good to see you back on it, even with the bowflex weight being off you’re still pushing solid volume and keeping the chest engaged heavy. Supersetting the raises with 20s across front and side is a strong way to light up the delts, especially with those rep ranges. Inverted flies to failure topped it off nicely, you’ll feel that upper back and rear delt pump for sure. Getting back into routine always feels rough the first week, but the consistency you’re already showing with food and training will get you back in stride quick.

bro 20 and 50lbs is solid. but should push it to 100 and 200lbs instead. let see you push it @Farmboy

 

[Farmboy]

@Farmboy nice job on this workout. the seated cable flies are impressive. the front raises are also A+

Hitting delt when I’ve got no press

 

[Farmboy]

Good to see you back on it, even with the bowflex weight being off you’re still pushing solid volume and keeping the chest engaged heavy. Supersetting the raises with 20s across front and side is a strong way to light up the delts, especially with those rep ranges. Inverted flies to failure topped it off nicely, you’ll feel that upper back and rear delt pump for sure. Getting back into routine always feels rough the first week, but the consistency you’re already showing with food and training will get you back in stride quick.

on cycle? post the pin schedule as you go

Burns real good with solid delt activation with no press available

Ah friend, I meant first day back on shift. No change in the dosing for the maintenance phase. Im still mon/fri for the test

 

[Farmboy]

I don't think you will need nolva at 350

Unfortunately I do, I am gyno prone, especially post bulk like this. I had some pubertal that always shows up. I’ve prevent lumps but I get wicked pain behind the nipple if I miss my Nolva dosing in the AM.

I’m fortunate though, I tolerate Nolva well with only some minor brain for for the first two ish weeks at this low of dose

Good delt work then, if it burns without pressing you know you’re hitting them right. Sticking with mon/fri test pins is steady, no need to change dosing if recovery and strength feel on point. That setup keeps levels stable and simple to manage alongside your work shifts.

Big arm volume there, good mix of curls, pushdowns, and overheads with some forearm work to finish, so you definitely hammered everything. That structured cardio is smart to bring in now before the cut so it feels normal instead of a shock later. Double days will tax you hard though, so make sure recovery and food are lined up or you’ll burn out quick.

Solid work for being wrecked on nightshift, those pulldown numbers are strong and still keeping form tight with holds shows you’re locked in. Rows look heavy but controlled, good volume there. Lateral raises strict like that definitely cap the session off right. Rest day is earned, get the teeth sorted and you’ll feel a lot better training after.

Dentist was as helpful as they typically are. I’ll get a referral sent to me in a couple weeks

Active rest day today but nothing crazy at all. Only had a three hour nap so I’m off to bed. Should grab a solid 8.5hrs and be back in it tomorrow

Sounds fine, getting the referral sorted is the main thing and at least you’re moving forward with it. Extra rest will do more for recovery than forcing anything today, 8 plus hours tonight will set you up to feel normal again tomorrow.

Found your log bro! Even though you're a habs fan I figured I should still drop by and show some love for the enemy lol!

You got some serious training going on. You look like you got that farm boy build where you can just really stack on a ton of muscle. If you stay consistent you're gonna end up looking like a real BB.

For the resistance in your cable machine try grabbing some treadmill lube. Works really good lubing up the pulleys and the actual cable too. Reduces friction by a lot and it's a bit thicker so it doesn't fling everywhere and make a mess. If you have guide rods for the weight you can hit that with some silicone spray and that smooth it out nice.

Chest work looked strong, those fly numbers with controlled reps and pauses show you’re focusing on quality not just moving weight. Squats after all that pressing is solid too, good mix keeping legs in even if it’s lighter volume. Cardio right after squats at that heart rate keeps conditioning sharp. Drag on cables can make the stack feel heavier, but if you’re progressing and chest is getting the focus, you’re right where you want to be.

Man it’s great to have you along. It was a good first log, now onto the follow up maintenance into a cut

I appreciate that advice about the silicone and treadmill lube. I’ve been using CLP and regular machine grease with mixed results

20 minutes cardio on the Procor. Bpm range 140-150. Started right after last set of squats so the BP was already up there.

Really great session, still working out the bumps on my cable machine. There is definitely some drag that’s adding resistance but nothing risky to me or the setup. I hope to focus heavily on chest development in this current phase owing to it falling behind the back and delt development.

@Farmboy solid job on this training. the standing downward cable flies are fun

@Farmboy The weight training is very much on point. I like the squats and I like the downward cable flies. Nice on the cardio as well.

Lots of good exercises on this up. I like how you're including the partials and how you include going to failure. That's some good training. @Farmboy

Little boosts to the intensity without compromising a lot of form

@Farmboy The weight training is very much on point. I like the squats and I like the downward cable flies. Nice on the cardio as well.

The cardio with a BPM around 140s is a nice balance for me. Cardio is probably the only exercise where I need to consciously make myself do it

Sweet setup bro. I like how wide that functional trainer is. You can definitely get some good work done with a spot like this. I bet it comes in pretty clutch in the deep Northern AB winters
