hahaha yeah ofc that’d be better but i get them for free and they’re super convenient to get in some protein on the move when im working.

Free is good, mix the protein into the free milk then. lol

Hello all,

I began my test and rad cycle yesterday and am excited to post a log for the first time and seek input and guidance from the community. I am 22 years old and have been lifting on and off for about 4 years and have gained some decent size given inconsistent training and eating at a surplus only sometimes, but I wanted to jumpstart my growth as I know I have a lot left in the tank. I also go bouldering 1-2x a week and getting crazy recovery and strength gains with that would be so sick, i currently max out at v4.

Stats:
22 years old
Height 5'6
BF% 13%
Weight 160lb

Planned Cycle
Week 1-12 325mg/week test-e : split into 2 doses/week
Week 1-5, 8-12 10mg/day rad-140 (bump up to 20mg per day for 2nd round)
Week 14-16 PCT: Enclomiphene Citrate at 12.5-25mg/day

Supps:
Creatine
Beta alanine
Citruline Malate
Taurine
Citrus Bergamont
Garlic extract
Coq10
NAC
Glucosamine w/ MSM
Magnesium Glycinate
Vitamin D3
Vitamin C
Omega-3 2500mg
Zinc
Gycine

My blood work (CBC, CMP, Test, E2, LH) was perfect I had no cause for concern there. Going to get mid cycle bloods not sure what to get though outside of CMP, CBC, and E2. For those curious: total test: 590, Free test: 91, E2 in healthy range.

I am planning to bulk this entire cycle starting at 3500 cals for weeks 1-3, 4k weeks 4-7, and 4.5k weeks 8-12 and back down to 3500 during pct. I also track my diet via MyFitnessPal. Macros: 55% carbs, 25% protein, 20% fat. The goal is to gain 15-20lbs and retain at least 8-12lbs of lean muscle post cycle. Seems lofty of just test and rad but im still shooting for it.

I regularly track all my lifts and don't really have a set plan other than 6x a week (chest/tri, back/bi, legs (either quad/calves, hamstrings/glutes) with a rest day every 3 workouts but keep most exercises consistent and with a mix of strength and volume(emphasizing volume and hypertrophy rep range during cycle). Abs afetr every workout. cardio 3x a week.

Todays workout:

Chest/tri 5/22

• 5 mins hard stairmaster to warm up

  • 65x6
• pec deck (2 sec squeeze at top)
  • 110x12
  • 110x11
  • 110x9 (+5 reps x 80lbs drop set)
• low to high cable fly
  • single arm: 30lbx12 each arm
  • both arms:

  • 55lbx15 (+10 close grip press ss)
  • 75x11(+2.5 cg press ss)
• chest focused dips
  • 10 reps bw
  • 9reps w 25lb db
  • 8 reps w 25lb db, 3 reps bw dropset
  • 11 bw dips
• Over head tricep press
  • 60x4->80x4(+2 cheat reps)

Looking forward to the next 3+ months with you all!

@PobreEscobar Great detailed start bro.......

Leg day is good and I like the 315 on smith, but I'm checking your foods does the app give total macros? I know you wrote them here but wanted to see about app. Protein is way too low for the carbs, you can do 400 grams of carbs but protein should be 300 in that case. @PobreEscobar

@PobreEscobar I really like the macros you are putting together. good job on this setup. getting some solid protein and your carbs are super strong. just keep the carbs CLEAN. people think carbs are the enemy and they aren't. they can be beneficial

Took my 7th dose of the rad today, and I have to say I think it’s starting to kick in. While I was a bit short on time and didn’t get as much volume as I wanted, today’s chest and tricep pump was unreal and I felt stronger and the pump check after was really exciting. I need to start prioritizing bigger breakfasts, it’s getting annoying trying to catch up on my calories with lunch and dinner.

Protein is still lacking, are you able to get the protein bars in?

exactly how much protein do you recommend, i’m already over 200g like u said what should i be shooting for?
