Approved Log MidLifeGains. Cut in PCT then Fourth Cycle: Lean gains

[Eddie Haskell]

Hcgenerate and n2guard should arrive tomorrow or Monday.

What should I be adding to my diet?

@midlifegains smart move getting hcgenerate and n2guard.

To your diet, I would add a bit more protein, maybe a protein bar to start.

Hello again.

I dropped off the forums and training in general towards the end of my second cycle. Planning a fourth cycle now and wanted opinions. Previous cycles, body comp, strength gains, physical progress, diet, sleep, exercise. below

I am two weeks into PCT and will get blood in 6 weeks.
1.5iu HGH.
20mg tamoxifen
25mg Clomiphene

==STATS==
39
6'0
87 kg
15% BF

==GOALS==

• Lean gains
• Continued increased strength.
• Reduce body fat.

Ideally, I'd like to drop as much body fat as possible while still gaining.

I've been keeping up the calories in PCT to avoid muscle loss, so I added some fat. At what point post-cycle does it make sense to have a calorie deficit, or does it at all? I've dropped from 25% to 15% body fat in the last year, so I'm definitely going in the right direction. It would be nice to drop a few more percent for summer, either on or off-cycle.

Then, what is a strong combo for lean gains and appropriate for an intermediate 4th cycle?

Thinking about my next cycle, whenever that is (6ish weeks depending on bloods).

==STATS==

@midlifegains I like primobolan but not high doses over 400mgs just too much pain
I would go with 300mgs primobolan for 4 weeks and up to 400mgs of primobolan for 8 week safter and test p would swap for testosterone enanthae

250mgs test base
3-400mgs primo
tamoxifen on hand
n2guard ed

 

[Noah Wixx]

Primo is one of my favorites, 400mg I saw great results.

[e2]

a lot of people seem to like Primo
I personally am not so much of a fan but definitely let us know

 

[2Thick]

the key with Primo is using high quality
if you're using good stuff then you'll like it

 

[Vadim Fedorov]

that's what this log is for
you can see what kind of results you get and then switch in the future

 

[MONSTRO]

monstro doesn't use primo
that was good 50 years ago

 

[JasonPriest]

domestic supply has high quailty primo
I hope you use a solid brand

 

[BodyMonster34]

[Quadsweep]

my view is if you've never used Primo then try it
that's the only way to know if you're gonna like it

[Ulter]

a lot of people seem to like Primo lately
I think you will have good results on it

 

[chesty]

only one way to find out right
I would get on five or 600 milligrams of Primo

 

[ROIDDERS]

you don't need much testosterone with Primo
just a small dose to give things a kick

 

[ceo]

Bros I'm looking forward to seeing your results
this has the potential to be a good one

 

[ballin2504]

That’s where I keep it. That’s the sweet spot
