Hey brothers! This is my first time posting and I’d love any feedback from you all as to what I may be able to improve on.

As of today I will be starting my 8 week cruise / maintenance phase before going into my next push.

I’m 25yr old guy from Australia.
Current BW is 102.5kg

Started training when I was 16yrs old and did 2 natural bodybuilding comps when I was 17 and 18. After that I had a couple years off, still training with weights but not in a bodybuilding manner and not eating like a bodybuilder and was also doing jiu jitsu. As of June 2022 I started eating and training like a bodybuilder again, and as of September 2022 I’ve been completely sober which I’m very happy about.

My first cycle I started at 300mg Test E weekly and slowly titrated up to 500mg with the total cycle length being 13 weeks then I came off and did PCT.

My second cycle was 500mg Test E and 250mg NPP for a total of 14 weeks.

After this instead of coming off I did an 8 week cruise of 200mg Test E per week and managed to maintain pretty much all of my size and strength unlike after coming off from my first cycle.

My third cycle for the first half was 500mg Test E and 400mg Primo. Second half went upto 550mg Test with Primo staying at 400mg, and for the final 4 weeks I added 200mg Tren Ace to see how my body responds to it for when I use it in a contest prep in the future and got a great recomp effect from it. With the total cycle length being 18 weeks long.

As of today I will be starting an 8 week cruise of 225mg Test E per week. First 6 weeks I will be doing my maintenance calories which I’ll list my food later down on this post, final 2 weeks I will start a mini cut which will be 6 weeks in total, so last 2 weeks of the cruise dose and first 4 weeks of my next cycle. Followed by 16 weeks of a gain phase so my next cycle will be 20 weeks in total.

As of my third cycle I have been using Hybrid labs gear and rate it 10/10 I’ve got great results from it and never had an issue with PIP or lumping like I did with other brands of gear in the past

I will be starting with a coach for this next cycle, and judging off the total mg I was hoping to be running it may look something like 600 Test, 600 Primo, but that will obviously come down to the coach to decide. And I have a bottle of MK to use for the last 14 weeks of that cycle as I don’t have the money for GH just yet.

Hey bro not too much cardio, literally wouldn’t even call it that, just a 20min fasted walk of a morning EOD

Carbs are just the macro I use to adjust calories as everyone should
