Hey all, this is my first journal on here and I'm starting my cut tomorrow. Supplements will go as follows:

Week 1: N2Shred
Week 2: Clen (build up to 120 mcg)/Trans/Forma
Week 3: N2Shred/Trans/forma
Week 4: Clen (build up to 120 mcg)/Trans/Forma
Week 5: N2Shred/Trans/forma
Week 6: Clen (build up to 120 mcg)/Trans/Forma
Week 7: N2Shred/Trans/Forma
Week 8: Clen (build up to 120 mcg)/Trans/Forma
Week 9: N2Shred/Trans/Forma

Staples: Modern BCAA, Creatine Mono, Fish Oil, Multi

Other: Taking PowerChews D-Test starting day one

I will post pictures tomorrow. Here's a history lesson. I weighed about 280 summer '11. I am currently weighing in around 240-245 daily and want an extra push to help lean me out further. If I had to guess, I would say bf is around 17-18%. I'm 6'3" and hold most of my weight around my waist and ass which sucks but hoping with a clean diet, I might be able to see actual abdominals by March.

I hope everyone who follows enjoys this and I will be sure to update daily.

Weighed in at 243 today. Diet was really clean. I took my supps as follows:

9am: 2 Stim, 1 Burn
11:30am: 2 Flame, 1 Stim, 1 Burn
3:30pm: 1 Flame 1 Burn

This combination was pretty nice. I had a pretty good high during my first dose of the day. I think the cup of coffee I was drinking added to the effects. Did chest and arms. On my last set of bench I got 275 three time, not my best, but I'm getting over a bug so good stuff is sure to come. As far as cardio, I'm gonna perform it only on my upper body days. Today, I did stair master and treadmill on an incline for 5 minutes each.

As a side note, I have never seen my arms like I did today. My vascularity was increased greatly.
 
What's the "clean diet" plan consist of dail?

Cardio/workout plan?

Keep up the hard work it will pay off
 
Diet will just be low carbs, somewhere around 120 everyday, because I work at UPS loading trucks, high protein of course with about 5 meals a day. I don't really count my calories but looking at some of my recorded diets, I'm staying around 2000-2500 daily. This is my typical day:

4am: Bowl of Frosted Mini Wheats
~9am: 4 eggs, couple pieces of bacon
Noonish/Preworkout: turkey or roast beef sandwich with two mozzarella sticks
After Workout: Muscle Replenisher or Protein Shake
~6PM: whatever I can scavenge up in the kitchen, something like a sweet potato and chicken breast

It will change accordingly once I resume classes this week. For my workout, I've been looking at trying out the 5/3/1 workout 3 days a week. I load trucks 5 days a week and plan on doing actual cardio, such as stair master and treadmill, on upper bod days to save my legs.
 
Just applied my Trans and Forma for the first time. Trans on shoulders/upper chest and forma on abdominals. Props to Need2, this stuff dried extremely fast.
 
Weighed in at 238 this morning.

Workout:
Squats 5x5x5x5x3x3
Snatch Squats 5x5x3
Calf Raises: 4x15
Leg Curls 4x10
Lat Pulls 3x10
Hammer DB Curls 3x10
Palm Up DB Curl 3x10

Legs started cramping for the first time in a while during my workout. I forgot my usual water jug that I put my BCAAs in, so that may have had something to do with it. Just got home and weighed about 237, which is the first time I've lost weight during the day, so I'm pretty sure I'm not too hydrated.
 
Weighed in at 238 again this morning.

Workout:
Bench w/Bands 10x5x5 (stopped using bands because gym said they aren't allowed, pissed me the f*** off)
Bench 5x3x1 (275x1)
DB Bench 8x8x8x5x3 (last 3 were 110; very happy about that)
Incline Bench 8x5x5x3 (3x205)
Palm Up DB Curls (Heavy) 3x5
Overhead Tri Extensions
Tri Extensions
Rope Extensions
Face Pulls

On a good note, I will be able to use bands in the school gym next week, so I'm pretty excited to start training with those. Received my clen from **************, I think it's more potent then usual. I took about 20 mcg and a hour later, I was starving and running around my house like a mad man. I will be taking clen solo starting Sunday. I think the trans, forma, d-test combo is helping with strength and maintaining mass. I wasn't as strong as I was at 280, but I'm making baby steps.
 
Good work. Don't worry about the amount you lift worry about cutting. If you worry about strengh when you are cutting and getting to a healthy weight it will fuk with your head because you WILL loose strength. Worry about getting stroger and packing on lean muscle after your BF is down in a healthy zone.

Keep it up man

Fuk that gym and no bands I would stormed out.
 
Ya, I've already come to the conclusion I'm gonna need to start all over in the strength department. After this, I'm gonna retest myself for the 5/3/1 routine for my hella cycle in the spring.

Good call man. Everyone looses some some on a cut. Get down to 10-12% BF with abs and then lean bulk (slow but lean gains). Trust me you'll feel awesome and look awesome. I'm 10% now and 247 fasted look the best I've looked in my whole life. 3 yrs ago I was 250 (fat) prob 20% BF, I cut for a year until I hit 212BF, sure I lost a lot of muscle but everyone noticed how I looked and liked it. Few years of hard work later and I'm still lean just more muscle.

Kill it bro!!
 
Weighed in at 240 this morning after breakfast and work. Starting clen tomorrow so weight should decline significantly this week. Will be upping my protein and water intake significantly to fight off any sides.
 
Somehow weighed around 233 (fasted) after eating like an animal yesterday. Started my week of clen at 40mcg. Took it with my breakfast (3 eggs and protein shake). Feeling a little on edge but good altogether. Will take 40 more probably around 2 or 3.
 
It's a good Monday guys. dosing my clen at 50mcg today (AM and afternoon). Work out was good and weighed in around 238 today. Workout was a upperbody; chest and tris.

Bench w/ Bands
DB Bench
Incline Bench
DB Curls
Lat Pulls
Tri Extensions (rope and v-bar)
Dips
DB Flyes
Cable Flyes (Low and High)

Another note, I'm starving right now and decided to do a quick count of my food intake today. So far:
- Calories: 1720
- Protein: 218
- Carbs: 59
Now I know why. Hopefully I can keep up this kind of diet, because if so, the pounds will probably melt off.
 
Weighed in at 235 this morning. Happy with that, hopefully I will be down to about 230 by the end of the week with the help of the clen and see what stays off the following week. Workout was good, but hips were super tight for some crazy reason. I had to do 6 sets of 5 on squats with 135 to actually get to a parallel squat comfortably. Maybe this is due to lack of hydration, but I just don't know, any insight would be great.

Workout:
Squats 6x5x135; sets of 1 heavy
RDLs 3x8
Leg Curls 4x8
Glute-Ham 6x5
Good Mornings 5x10x10
Seated Calf Raises 3x20

I felt really satisfied with this workout. Good sweat and sore so I must have accomplished something.
 
Weighed at 235 this morning. This week has bee pretty hectic due to classes starting so not much has been written the past couple days. WIll hit the gym hard Monday. On another note, I start back on the N2Shred tomorrow following the same dosing.
 
Usually don't update on non-workout days, but weighed 231 fasted this morning. Goal weight by the halfway point (February 1st) is 220, so I think I'm doing pretty well overall.
 
Yessir you're doing well. How's the clen making you feel? Would like some input on it?
 
Weighed in at 234 after work this morning. Decided to switch things up and train legs twice this week. Back is shot, but that's a good thing in my book. I maintained light weight and proper form so I know it's just sore from blood flow and muscle usage. Workout was as follows:

Squats
Front Squats
DeadLifts
DB RDLs (first time and really liked them)
Lat Pulls
GluteHams
Donkey Calf Raises
DB Curls
Static Chin Up Holds
Chins (as many as possible --> 4)

For the first time in my life, I performed more than one chin up lol. Did four with the palms facing each other.
 
Weighed 234 this morning. I'm starting to feel like I'm recomping more than cutting. I can tell a difference in fat mass but weight is staying about the same. Workout was chest:

Bench w/ Bands
DB Bench
DB Flyes
Incline/Decline Cable Flyes
Dips
Iso-Press w/ Bands
Tricep Extensions

I'm over all satisfied with everything, but would love to break the 230 barrier.
 
Still weighing around 234. Lower back and upper back are extremely sore from yesterdays work out:

Hang Cleans w/ Press
Standing Military
DB Curls
Lat Pulls
DB Rows
T-Bar Rows
Face Pulls
V-Bar Rows
Shrugs

I must say, I feel like I made alot of progress in the gym this week. I hit pretty much every part of my body and I'm feeling it.
 
It's difficult. I've had one success at it like that but that was also 50lbs ago. The lower your bf% the harder to lose and gain at the same time is. Or at least that's what I experienced.

On another note, I did an upper body routine concentrating on tris and bis:
Bench
DB Bench (Palms Facing)
Lat Pulls
DB Curls
Hammer Curls
Tri Extensions
Reverse Extensions
Dips
High and Low Cable Flyes
Iso Bench Press

Back is still extremely sore from Thursday's workout, so much needed rest is coming tonight and tomorrow. I've probably averaged about 6 hours of sleep all week and that has greatly affected my strength and endurance.
 
Weighed in at 231 (fasted) this morning. My back is still sore as s*** but I can tell it's getting better with time. I'll hopefully man up and take some progress pics in the next couple of days. I'm down to 36s in pants size and I can also start to see a ripple in my obliques. This combination I created is incredible. I'm back on clen this week and started at 120mcg today and will maintain that all week.

I probably should have posted a side pick the first time cause that is where I'm definitely seeing a difference. I can see a greater taper in my chest and side from the flex shot so I'm very happy thus far.

Weighed in at 234 this morning. Workout was lower body, felt real good.

Squats 5/5/5/5/3/3/1/1
DB RDLs 5x5
Leg Curls 4x8
Leg Extensions 4x8
Calf Raises 3x20
Donkey Calf Raises 3x20
GluteHam 20
Core Work --> concentrated on obliques; I feel doing this lately has helped with my squats tremendously

Felt real good afterwards. Felt my body temperature increase greater than usual and may be due to clen dosing, but thats why I take it.
 
Hey guys, Im getting back into the gym today after letting my back settle down last week. I don't know if I pulled something or what not, but it was pretty bad. I weighed at 230 this morning and will do an upper body workout (concentrating on chest, triceps, and upper back) today. I don't know if ya'll read it, but Anita Ramsey's article "Back Your Bench" really opened my eyes on how the back really supports a strong bench press.
 
....I'm still taking in around 2000 calories daily which has been interesting to say the least. Hunger pains come and go, but they aren't too terrible. I ordered two bags of Better Protein Bars so now I have a snack in between my Monday and Wednesday classes.
 
Killed my legs yesterday... I really need to start writing down everything so I can record it here, but oh well:

Squats
Front Squats
DeadLifts
DB RDLs
DB Curls
Leg Curls
Hang Cleans
Calf Raises

Everything felt good. I'm up about five pounds (235) but I started taking in a little more calories and creatine throughout the day to get my body ready for my upcoming EStane/Hella Bridge. I'm gonna keep calories around 2500 which is pretty significant from what the average was earlier. My long term goals would be to get back up to about 250 and maintain my pants size (36 as of now, don't think I've been this small since 6th grade lol). I appreciate everyone who's following. This last month I'm killing it.
 
Did a pretty fulfilling shoulder workout today. Weighed in around 231 this morning. Everything seems to be falling into place. Adding the creatine 10mg a day has helped with recovery alot since I'm at a calorie and carb deficit. I;m loving the chemistry of the clen/n2shred, muscles are firm 24/7 and the pump is strong and steady at all times.
 
Hey all, things are going good. First things first, supplementing creatine is incredible. I forgot how much of an effect it actually had on recovery and strength gain. But on another note. Weight is staying steady at 234, which is a wonderful thing especially since my size 36 pants are even starting to sag on me. I will have some post cycle measurements up, not that it really matters since I didn't take them prior, but they will be my base for my upcoming Estane-Hella bridge.

Monday:
Embarrassed to really talk about this workout. I was stuck working out in one of the dorm gyms due to a basketball game therefor I was only able to use machines. The plus is there were a set of parallel bars. I ran through a little circuit of 10 reps each machine 6 times. I finished with a couple of sprints on the treadmill and some abdominal work.

Dips
Press Machine
Lat Pulls
Wide Grip Rows
Cable Curls

Today:
I killed my legs. Pumps were great and I felt good overall performing everything.

Squats
Front Squats
DB RDLs
Calf Raises
Glute Ham
Leg Curls
Leg Extensions
Leg Press

So far I am very satisfied with everything. Props to need2 for keeping these formulas and also making N2Burn, which as of right now is my favorite fat burner of all time.
 
I didn't post my workout from Thursday so here it is:

Bench
Incline Bench
DB Bench
Dips
T-Bar Wide Rows
Lat Pulls
Rope Curls
Tricep Extensions
Shrugs
Incline Cable Flyes
Decline Cable Flyes
Iso Pec Press

It was a great workout. Had alot of soreness in my shoulders after bench and incline so no DB Flyes that day. I know this sounds soft but, I just couldn't put myself through another shoulder injury so I just stayed away from them. Weight is stil a steady 230-235 daily. I don't know what is going on inside of my body but I love it. Inches are melting off of me and weight is staying steady which I love, bit the odd thing is strength really hasn't stayed steady. But then again, I lost a good 15 pounds since December. I will be testing again in the next week or so for my Epi/HD bridge. Will be using 5/3/1 for real this time and hoping to add some serious strength through March and April.

If others have had experience with this training style after dropping some weight, I would love some input. Also, other training methods for regaining strength would be good to know. I plan on having my spread sheets for my lifts set up by next week.
 
Finally broke the 230 mark, weighed in at 229 this morning lol. A little tired but everything is going well. I'm taking 15g of creatine on workout days and 5g on off days. I attempted a shoulder routine today that didn't work as I planned but was oh so effective:

DB Military: 3x10; drop set x6
Lateral Raises
Rear Deltoid Raises
Dips
Tri Extension
DB Skull Crushers
Close Grip Bench
Shrugs
T-Bar Rows

My shoulders were burning like no other so I had to cheat a little on some of the workouts, but everything went well.
 
Good weight loss and things are coming to an end. This will be my last post in my cutting cycle. Will begin a natty thread and record my strength gain and measurements starting next week. My final weight from the past two months is a sloid 230. That is a solid 15 lbs from where I started.

I would grade my overall cut at a 8. Things would have been better if my eating was tighter and my schedule wasn't so hectic, but that's life. I recommend this combination to everyone. I have lost plenty of inches around my waist and have gotten more vascular than I think I have ever been.
