Planning on starting my cycle in the next week or two. Depending on when my n2Guard comes in and when I receive my bloodwork results. Outlining my plan below so that I have time to make any adjustments based on the experience of the community.
Background
2nd ever cycle. Did a test only cycle at the beginning of the year. First cycle was run at 16 weeks which was too long. Felt bloated and “too big” for my body towards the end. Ran 500 mg of Test C per week. After the cycle I have maintained approximately 8-9 pounds of muscle that I put on and strength measured by lifts I am still able to do is about 90% of the max I reached on cycle. At the conclusion of my cycle I have run TRT at 100 mg per week as my test numbers were at the very low end of normal before the cycle.
I am currently weighing in at 198-200 lbs. my body fat according to inbody is 16.5%. Will upload photos on starting date.
Goals
The goal for this cycle is not to gain as much mass as the first cycle. Concentrating on strength gains and losing fat. Looking to become more defined at the size I am.
Gear
Based on suggestions from a previous thread I created my plan is to run 300 mg of both test c and Primo per week for 10-12 weeks. I also have var on hand if needed.
Diet
For my goals I know that diet will be of the utmost importance. While I am not looking to compete or live a life where I can never indulge, I will be strictly limiting sugar intake for the duration. My macros will be at approximately 2300 calories a day broken down into 190-200 g of protein, 170 g of carbs, and 90 grams of fats.
Supplements
7 n2Guard daily
15 g of fish oil
400 mg dim
500 mg pathothenic acid
1-2 servings of psyllium husk powder
At these levels I don’t plan to take an anti estrogen supplement, but have on hand if needed.
Training
I will be using a bodybuilding program with 5 days of lifting and 2 days of zone 2 cardio a day. Each workout is approximately 60-75 minutes followed by a 20 minute sauna and 3 min cold plunge.
Any advice or adjustments that you guys see? Looking forward to sharing my progress with the community.
