bang_bang Posted January 15, 2016 Report Share Posted January 15, 2016 Thought I'd start a cycle log to get some more interest in this part of forum and keep myself accountable. I'm almost 28 and my best gym lifts are 225/180/272.5 @ 105kg. My goal is to hit 250/200/300 in sleeves under 100kg by July. Ive done several cycles since I was 25 all either test/eq or test/deca. Used dbol once for 4 weeks. I've just had almost 5 months off. After 4 months off I hit 190/150/240 @ 101kg. I then did a quick aggressive cut to drop some fat before starting this cycle. Lost about 10kg off my lifts and got to 97kg. Started a new cycle a month ago, the short term goal is to get back to my pbs at a lighter bodyweight. I'm using 600 eq 500 test e per week and I'm already 103kg lol. I will run this for 15 weeks, cruise or come off for 8 weeks then blast for 12 weeks leading up to my goal. Considering using tren for that blast but will decide closer to the time. I'll then take the rest of the year off and try to get my natural test production kickstarted. I've hired a coach to help achieve my goal and I've already seen huge improvements in my form. Trainings a bit boring sticking to prescribed weights but feeling good and looking forward to some big gains. I took some pre cycle photos which are a bit embarrassing but I'll upload them soon to keep myself motivated.

bang_bang Posted January 20, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 20, 2016 Deadlifts 220x2x2 240x1 200x3x4 Everything moved pretty quick definitely easier than last week. Could probably grind out 260 if I had to so I'm feeling on track. Only had 30 secs rest on down sets to make it a bit more challenging.

Was gonna do arms after but forearms and elbows were killing me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bang_bang Posted January 27, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 Deads 220x1 240x1x2 210x3x3 felt a lot heavier than I was hoping although they moved ok. doesn't help that I'm still adjusting my set up. First rep at 240 in vid. Please no comments about my calves lol. IMG_0850.MOV Terrymundo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bang_bang Posted January 30, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2016 Had a couple days off and missed a bench sess to give my elbows/forearms a break. Squats 200x1x2 180x2 140x10 pause squats 160x3x3 Ham curls 3x10 really happy with this, 200 flew up I'm quite confident 220 was there. Pause squats nice and easy too so I did longer pauses prob 3 seconds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bang_bang Posted January 31, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2016 Bench 150x3x3 arms pushdowns / cable curls 3x12 bb curls / skullcrushers 3x10 db curls / forgetten what it's called bench was reasonably easy, went light on accessories. No point in wreaking my elbows further at this stage I'm 3 weeks out from a meet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bang_bang Posted January 31, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2016 Had an unusual pin in my delt on Friday, it pissed out with blood and I noticed today it's a bit bruised and sore. Anything to worry about? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anything to worry about? Probably pinned into a spot that was full of oil already if you're pinning frequently in the same spots. If you're not still hurting from it and it's not affecting anything then probably nothing to worry about. However I'd still add your home address just so we all know where to send flowers :) Georg, bang_bang, kingersman and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bang_bang Posted January 31, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2016 Lol! If you don't hear from me again.. Remember me brahs. That sounds likely though I only pin delts and each one is getting 2.5ml a week. Might need to stick some in my quads HarryB 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bang_bang Posted February 4, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 4, 2016 Bench 150x2 155x2 160x2 close grip bench 100x10 110x10 120x10 Db curls 3x10 cable pushdowns/ cable curls 3x10 one arm preacher curls/overhead rope 3x12 Crunch machine 3x12 planks x3 till it hurt lol all bench sets with comp pauses and easy as. Went a bit off track after this was supposed to a bunch of easy 3s and 4s but flagged it. Feeling strong as f*ck. Added in 25mg dbol ed today. Will up this to 50mg ed 5 days out. Im going to utilise the next couple of weeks of lighter training by working on my weak points. Train core a few times a week, do lots of mobility work etc. I even thought about training calves today Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bang_bang Posted February 5, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2016 Front squats 120x3 140x3 150x1 160x1 100x8x3 leg press 5ppsx12x5 leg extension / ham curls 3x15 Easy front squat pb. A mate came over after work with a massive joint so ended up going to gym high as f*ck. Wasn't too bad got a bit paranoid though so kept my rest breaks short and got a real good pump. Kept accessories light because I'm testing openers/seconds in a few days Realtalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
