(except i have some drol and winny for weeks 3-6 and some masteron towards the end)

Yeah man, it’s such a simple and smooth cycle to run. I think that people bitch about the Test/EQ cycle’s because: -1.) Their diet is complete shite. I.E- fast food, processed foods, carbs way too high etc. 2.) Blowing off their cardio.

It’s really a shame to neglect cardio when EQ is being ran. I do at least 45 mins of intense cardio on lifting days. When EQ is stacked, I’ll do an hour. Some say an hour is overkill. But, I have never suffered in weight or muscle gains while doing this; and it has always produced a more polished physique with better vascularity.

**I Basically only drink water and Green tea. No juices, no soda, no food out of a box, no fast food or junk food of any kind. Keeping the carbs moderate to low- only source coming from veggies or fruit. Adhering to a diet like this on ANY cycle will keep you leaned out, more vascular, and you’ll hold MUCH less water. 9 times out of 10, you’ll never have to break out an AI if this is applied. Barring those who may be very sensitive to AS sides.

That is very interesting. I do eat my carbs… but i am more ecto that i suspect you are… so i really can get away with it… plus its stuff like plain oats, or my new favourite is soya and flax bread - its heavy as fuck as real low gi. Spread some PB on that and insulin is a thing of the past… :wink:

As i get older i will be eating less and less carbs - of that i have no doubt… the AI thing you mentioned, is that due to the less fat you’ll carry…? or what? The less aromatising chemicals from pre-packaged bollocks…?

Yeah, I would say that I am a classic Endomorph. Gaining weight for me is very easy (for both muscle and fat). I am naturally stalky, and always have been since I was a kid. It can be both a blessing and a curse. Depending on how you handle things. As the years have gone by, I have tried every approach possible to make quality non-sloppy gains while on cycle. It has become apparent, that an Endo like me, is much better served on this type of diet. Whereas, an Ecto can get a way with a little more. Especially, if one is on the extreme side of the Ecto spectrum. You may eat more carbs than me. However, yours are still coming from a very clean source with the plain oats, soya and flax bread. So, ups to you for eating smartly.

**As for the AI thing I mentioned- I think it has more to do with getting rid of refined sugars, white flour, excess sodium, fructose, and engineered foods(altogether). All that garbage can lead to screwing up peoples insulin regulation, increasing estrogen levels, high sodium will naturally make you hold more water(possible bp issues); and all of the fast food meats are loaded with insane amounts of nitrates, hormones, bad cholesterol, triglycerides and unhealthy fats.

For an Ectomorph, eating these things may not cause such pronounced problems- At least, from a visual standpoint. For a true Endomorph, eating clean can make all the difference aesthetically. However, while cycling, I think everyone would benefit from eating cleaner, when it comes to lipid profiles and high bp. I definitely don’t claim to know everything about the game. And I certainly do not claim to be a nutritionist. Nor, am I suggesting that everyone mimic my diet plan verbatim. However, through my own trial and error, it has served me well. Allowing me to be damn near bloat free on cycle. Hope this explained things brook.

43

it does… let me explain what life is like for in these regards.

If i eat as clean as i am now, i build very nice, lean muscle - very sharp and hover between 10-11 without much effort.

If i bulk with no regard for anything (except high protein of course) then i gain, but i will put on a little fat. A 6 month sloppy bulk my rise my bf% by 1-2% tops.

BUT it is hard to put on muscle - and natural? forgeddaboudit. Towards the end of my natural stint, i wasnt gaining shit… i would gain noticeably for about 1 week out of every 3-6 months… it was tough.

Viva la Testosterona ;p

44

I read ya loud and clear Brook. Ecto’s and Endo’s definitely have their own struggles. For you, it’s a bitch trying to put on weight, and making clean gains is not so difficult. While for me, putting on weight is a joke. However, acquiring newly gained weight that is very lean and without an increase in bf%, is a whole other story. That’s where anabolics can really level the playing field for people like us. As long as we are aware of our deficiencies, and how to circumvent them properly. Then, steroid usage, in conjunction with a solid diet, can definitely make life easier.

45

I agree mate…

Whereas Meso’s are just fuckin GREEDY. :wink:

I am lucky though - i definitely do have SOME meso in me (as i am sure you do to - or else we probably wouldnt do what we do) as while i always struggled to get bigger, i was always muscular from a small boy… not just skin and bones… but lean and muscular too… i have built on that… and continue to…

Little off topic, i have now decided on my ‘goal’ weight that i am overall aiming for. At that point i will re-assess and decide if more is attainable or even desired.

16st. So thats like 225lbs. i am aiming to break 200 this cycle, and at 5’8" 225lb should look impressive. Shit, i am expecting 200 to look pretty damn good, as i turn heads when a pumped 190!

Here’s to heavy lifting, Steak, an abundance of Anabolic Androgenic steroids and plenty of Carbs!! clink

You guys are really making me wanna try some EQ. I had planned on deca, but I hear all this good stuff about EQ.

Who knows, maybe soon?

16 stones @ 5’ 8" and @ 10% or below, will look fuckin’ cock diesel. To the average dude, you’ll look like you weigh much more. Leaned out, and at a low BF%, it will be very impressive looking. Plus, it’s not an exhorbinent amount of weight gain, that might put undue stress on your heart. I think that it is a very attainable and reasonable weight as well. Taking your time to get there, and putting the weight on in a responsible non-sloppy manner, is the way to do it. Which you have obviously been doing.

A lot of people strive to put on much more weight. But, unless you are competing and trying to make a certain weight class- Then, why stress the body with the extra poundage. I’m only 10lbs heavier than your goal when I’m at my max weight at 5’ 11 and @ 10% bf. I love the look and feel, and see no need to go any further. My intentions are to just tweak things here and there, and to tighten up.

EQ and Deca are both great compounds man. It just depends on what you’re gunning for with the cycle plan. In my opinion, neither is better than the other. Deca is fantastic for making the joints feel lubed, and for giving an extra kick in the size department. EQ is great for upping the RBC, stimulating the appetite (in most people), and for added endurance and increased vascularity.

*If your diet and cardio are not in check, then the vascularity will not be any more pronounced than being on Deca. Either way, you can’t loose. Deca @ 400MG/WK or EQ @ 600MG/WK stacked W/ Test is always good to go.

49

My goal for now is to reach 260 lbs at 8% BF. Then I’ll see where I want to go from there. Basically, I want to look like Arnold, but with better legs and maybe a little wider shoulders.

I think my next cycle I’m going to run my Test at a much lower dosage than the past, just to see how I like it. I’ve been off for two years now. So, I thought I’d see how Test @ 500MG/WK run with Proviron @ 50MG/D treats me. I’m willing to bet that it’ll be more than adequate, since I’ve been off for so long. It really doesn’t make sense for me to blast right away, since I’ll probably be able to take advantage of using lower dosages and save a little cash at the same time. Good luck with your cycle Alex. Keep me posted.

i commend ya on not touching any AAS for two years,

man i cant go a day without thinking about some sort of cycle, reciting compound effects in my head or something along the lines of use. well its still all pretty new to me maybe, 2 yrs of obsessive AAS reading! and not to mention this place has me by the balls the steroid section anyways

kinda funny to me
well hell im sure alot of ya got me beat in those regards
im gonna go tuck in my bottle of test for the night now…so precious

Yeah @ 6’ 2" that should look pretty damn nasty. I’m admittedly a cardio freak. I think it’s a serotonin thing with me. The extra cardio has a dramatic affect on my happiness level. So, I always hit it. As a result, that kind of weight is never going to come my way. Nor, do I want it to honestly. But, I do love seeing the size freaks. That kinda shit just makes me giddy. LOL. Good luck BDE.

Hahaha. Too true. I’m itchin to start my first cycle, but money is such a limiting factor. :frowning:

53

That would only require less than 30 lbs of LBM, which, if I work my ass off my first cycle, I could possibly come close to that, if not reach it, at least during the cycle.

LOL. You’re fucked. Don’t worry though, so am I and most of us on here. There’s no way I would have come off, if I hadn’t moved. I’m just paranoid about buying gear on the internet. Since, I have no experience with it, and the horror stories have kept me at bay. Being clean has never changed my stance on anabolics either.

In fact, it only highlighted how much better my quality of life was while being “on”. I’ll be hitting it again in a few weeks. I feel like a friggin’ schoolboy waiting for summer break. My opinion- Hey, if you can find something that brings a smile to your face, and doesn’t hurt anyone else. Go for it.

Well, you’ve got plenty of time to reach that goal. I’d just take my time and try to throw on 30lbs of quality muscle in say, 2-3 cycles. That way, you can strive for 100% quality. Instead of bulking, bloating, and having to cut. But, to each their own. Whatever makes you happy.

56

I’m gonna try to reach it within 1 cycle, but I know that it very well might not happen. I’ll be surprised if I don’t hit it in 2.

Welcome to the board Marius! I saw that you used to take the trolley south. I wanted to ask you if it actually goes into downtown TJ or if it stops at the US border??

Thanks for the welcome. The trolley actually stops at the San Ysidro border crossing. From there, you cross by foot and obviously have to walk back across. Customs will be ready and waiting. If you are a muscular dude, expect a little attention. Tons of people carry gear across. However, I wouldn’t recommend it at all. Especially after 911. I was stopped once back in 95’ and had a couple of Sustanon 250 Redijects taped to my left calf.

I was very lucky, since they never swept my legs- (which, if they had actually conducted a proper search, they would have easily found). My buddy tried to bring stuff across and he got busted. In my opinion, if you’re close enough to take the trolley- Then, you’re close enough to just cross the border, inject in TJ, and cross back without a care in the world.

Why risk a felony offense? I was a young and very reckless jackass back then. Lesson learned. The pharmacia’s are everywhere. Just take a cab to Revolucion Blvd and take your pick. I made nice with an owner, bought my gear, and just had him hold it for me at the Pharmacia (I only did this if I was cycling Deca or EQ with my Test).

Otherwise, there’s no need, because Sust 250 Redijects are everywhere. I’d drop by twice a week to gear-up, and actually became pretty friendly with the owner and staff. Just be courteous, friendly, and show a little effort with the Spanish- That shit will go a long way down there. Trust me! If you act like a typical gringo (like you own the fucking place)- Then, expect anything and everything from bunk gear, to a whole myriad of possible problems. I always smiled, tipped well, and told a few jokes.

As a result, they thought I was a good guy (not a gringo that takes advantage of everyone) and they treated me like family. Good luck and remember- No need to bring the gear stateside.

Oh man. So it stops short, eh?

I’m nowhere near being able to take the trolley every few days. I was going to drive down to maybe Chula and hop on.
Just wanted to ride it to make my return hopefully easier since I’ll be carrying a handful of sombreros and a pocketful of pesos. :slight_smile:

Thanks for the tips on how to act down there. Makes sense since nobody likes an ass. Owell, time for plan B; whatever that is. lol…
