First Cycle

Hi I’m 37, I am 5’7 163 lbs I have been training for the last seventeen years. I train every morning consisting of body weight exercises 4 days a week for an hour, and cardio 3 times a week for approx 30 min to the max of about 90 min or so. I routinely do HITT type training in place of one of the morning workouts for 30 to 45 min to keep the training from getting boring. I carry 60 to 90 lbs on my back for distances from 4 to 25 miles once a week on Thursdays.

My work outs are adjusted for this especially on the 12, 18 and 25 mile movements. I go to the gym during my lunch break for 45 min to an hour 5 times a week. My gym workout consists of; Mon chest, Tue shoulders, Wed arms, Thur legs, Fri back. I do a program for 12 weeks then I change to something else.

My diet consists of three meals a day. For breakfast I have an egg white omelet with veggies inside and three hard-boiled eggs, a small cup of fruit, orange juice, and coffee. For lunch I eat a can of tuna or a chicken breast, half a bag of steamers veggies, a piece of fruit, and some nut mix. Dinner usually consists of a chicken, steak, or fish with a serving of mixed vegetables (no corn), and some white rice or a potato. I drink two 17 ounce myoplex protein shakes per day. I drink 6 or so 20 ounce bottles of water per day. I miss breakfast allot because of work. When I do I just suck it up and wait till lunch. In the last few years I have watched my body fat percentage climb from about 8 to 15 percent. I still train the same. I don’t count calories I just watch my portions sizes.

My goal is to get back to 8-10 percent BF, get stronger, and get bigger.

My cycle is

Week 1-12 Test Enth 250mg twice a week for a total of 500mgs a week
Week 1-12 Adex

Nolva on hand in case of tender itchy nips

PCT

W 15 Nolva 20mg 2x/d or Clomid 50mg 2x/d
W 16-18 Nolva 20mg/d or Clomid 25mg/d

I have some dbol on hand and access to anything you could think of so if I need to add anything let me know

Any suggestions or input? What do i need to adjust if anything to reach my goals and are they realistic. If not what would a more realistic goal be.

Thanks in advance Mack

You’re going to have to elaborate on why this is because it’s really not a good thing to do. Is waking up an hour earlier to make sure you have breakfast completely out of the question?

Even if it is, at least grab a protein shake and some fruit and nuts or something at work to tide you over til lunch.

No I do body weight exercises at 6 am then I do weight training at lunch. My weight training schedule is posted in my original post.

Ok, I go to work at 0545 and I start working out at 0630 until 0730 or 0800. After that I have until 0900 to be back at work. However allot of times there is something that needs to be done by say 0745 and I will leave the work out early or at like 0830. not leaving enough time to go Shower get ready and eat. So i skip the meal to be where I’m supposed to be when I’m supossed to be there.
With doing a high intensity work out followed by a run you think i should eat before the workout?? If I was to get up at 0430 I could do that.

I think you could accomplish your goals without using AAS. I mean, everybody can get their body fat around 10% and gain some muscle and strength naturally. It does seem weird that over the las few years you have been constantly gaining fat because you really don’t eat too much (if anything too little) and you train a lot (too much IMO, especially cardio).

Unless you’re cheating a lot on your diet, it’s possible that through high amounts of cardio and very restrictive dieting you have led your body to an adverse hormonal state that has lead you to have a very hard time getting and staying lean despite your efforts. I suggest you get a full hormonal panel done to see if this is true. Even if you decide to do the cycle, the labs can serve as a reference point for the future.

THIS ^^

Cut your cardio back, and start increasing food over time, gradually, anywhere between 100-200kcals per day every fortnight. If your weight increases too fast in one particular fortnight, don’t increase food until weight has settled, it shouldn’t increase noticeably fast anyway with small increases like that. Take 1 step back to take 2 forward in other words. Will make life easier to strip body fat later on.
