Hey Shadow, how much would you value Halotestin in a pre-contest cycle? Im debating whether or not to add it in the last couple of weeks but here in Aus orals are very expensive, no matter which one.
Hi Shadow, a few questions for u:
- i run this cycle:
1-7 testosterone proprionate 100mg ed
1-7 masteron propionate 100mg eod
1-7 primobolan 100mg eod
1-7 proviron 50mg ed
1-7 arimidex 1mg ed
after that i want a cycle to start putting lean mass, what do u think?
in photo i’am at the begin of 3 week, before this cycle i’ve done 6 week of testo enatathe and boldenone
- local injection work for local growth? i do 2ml in the triceps and later i train them
3)slin prewo (humalog) can counteract the release of gh during the wo?
Do you ever specifically add calories to your diet if you workout longer than usual? For example you normally weight train 90 mins, but felt really good and did 120. Will you add say 100-200 cals total? Or just keep a consistent surplus?
I know you’ve stated lower carbs on rest/ cardio days, would you recommend say, removing 300 cals of Plazma or what ever intra and replacing it with just protein? Or leave the cals lower when in a gaining phase, hopefully to mitigate fat gain?
Thanks again shadow, learning a ton in here

Shadow,
I think i read on one of your posts about changing esters and/or changing compounds every so many weeks to keep gains coming and i went back to try and find it and came up empty handed.
just in my experience i seem to hit plateaus about week 12-15 on enanthates and about week 8-11 on ace or the shorter esters… is this what you’ve found as well?
ive done a few cycles, some fairly large and some in the mid range. ive had test as high as 1200 and as low as 350 /week. tren as low as 500 and as high as 900 /week
EQ gives me headaches
primo at a noticeable dose makes my hair fall out, same with mast just not as much hairloss and is tolerable.
never used decca
love most any oral except for winny which havocs my joints but is tolerable to work around.
i’ve been messing with HGH and peps lately and I can very easily see how well they’d stack with a large gaining/mass type cycle. very easy to stay lean. 4iu hgh and 2 doses of peps per day make staying lean much simpler.
Im 6’1" and 225lbs in the mornings.
Im starting to plan my blast cycle for this winter and was wondering if you could help me put one together for size and strength. I’m looking to do atleast 1 strongman comp and 1 powerlifting meet next year.
high dose tren doesnt give me any noticable sides except night sweats which i have negated by not having carbs a few hours before bedtime.
I have access to most any injectable (npp, suspension, sust, t400, mast,…ect) and oral ( halo, oral tren, anavar… etc)
i come down to a cruise dose about 1-2 times per year for about 2 months.
I pin ED regardless of what compounds I use. i’ve seen my AI usage go down since i started pinning ED.
the only guideline for the cycle would be - no more than 35IU of GH per week just because its so damn expensive.

Hi,
You’re right about the estimated time for the plateaus in the short and long esters, for me it’s a very similar time frame and this is when I know it’s time for a change.
Since strength is your main goal and you seem like an experience user, try something like this…
Week 1-12
Test-e @ 750-1000mg
Tren-a @ first 4 weeks 100mg/ED next 4 weeks 150mg/ED, last 4 weeks 175mg/ED
(You’d better be right that you have no problem with tren, or this dose will hit you hard) I love tren too and I’ve done this before with amazing results.
HGH 4-6iu/day
Nolvadex 20mg/ED
HCG 250iu 3x/week
Week 1-6
Dbol 50mg/day
Anadrol 50mg/day
Week 9-12
Halotestin @ 40-60mg/day
After these 12 weeks I would just cruise on test for at least 4-6 weeks and then start again. When you’re training for strength you don’t need to be fancy, you just need the basics and this combo would be an excellent strength cycle. You can use cheque drops in the last few weeks before your meet as well.
You are looking good in your picture, is strength your only goal or are you looking to add muscle? If you want to put on some size and don’t care about gaining weight or water retention then tell me and I can add/change something. Another great thing to help strength is to try test suspension pre workout and Plazma intraworkout.
[/quote]
i do use plazma during the WO that in itself was a game changer. as soon as i started using it i put on a solid 2lbs of clean muscle in probably 5 weeks and i got leaner. it was the holy grail!
i dont mind added size as long as its useful/muscle… i dont mind a little added water but the main thing is to stay in range of being able to compete in the 231lb strong man class… as i said earlier i’m at 225lbs in the mornings
and i feel confident enough that even hitting the weight of 236lbs i could easily and comfortably water manipulate to hit the 231lb mark by meet day and still perform at peak performance.
When going back to a cruise would you keep the test at the blast dose for a week or two after the tren clears then gradually taper down to a cruise dose over the course of 4 weeks, then cruise for 4 weeks? or would you immediately drop it to 250-450 and just mentally tough out some of the uncomfortable things for 4-6 weeks until next blast?
on my last blast i dropped the test dose immediately and i didnt like it near as much as a gradual taper. the taper for me seems to let everything gradually come back (metal drive, sex drive, motivation… etc) where as this last immediate dosage drop was a smooth transition.

What’s up shadow,
I asked you in the first thread about running an aggressive pct or hopping on a moderate cycle due to a low test level from previous dumb oral only.
I decided I’m going to hop on because i just came across a source who gets human/pharma grade gear.
He hooked me up with 25 amps of organon sust, arimidex, and hcg.
We discussed before about starting as moderate as possible because I’ve been living with low t for a couple years now.
Was wondering what you would advise for a 10 week cycle with this on hand. My diet, training, and supplementation are all on point. I train my ass off and have managed to make gains even with test levels in the mid 300’s.
I was think of doing 375mg a week split into three shots to start. .5mg adex eod and 250iu hcg bi weekly
Do you think this dose is too low?
Thanks as always for your input, here is a recent pic again to show you where I’m at
[/quote]
This is perfect, it’s not too low. I think you will get great gains from this… Remember there’s always time to do higher doses so keep it low to begin with and you’ll be better off.
Thank you for attaching the photo. Keep me posted.
By the way, you’ve done great progress up until now and I think this cycle will give you a good boost so keep pushing.[/quote]
Thanks a lot,
quick follow up question,
should i split these pins up mwf? or e3d? Just curious as to your opinion on the most effective way to use this low of a dose.

I would definitely recommend it, I always use it for both hardening purposes and to keep strength and aggression in the last few weeks. It’s the best one out there. If you’re training hard it will allow you to keep going hard up until the last week. I find it contributes to a “grainier” look.
If you have the option, then use it. On a scale of 1-10 I put it as an 8 for necessity.

that grainy look is something I’ve never been able to achieve. Doesn’t matter how lean or how dry I get, or how much DHT-derivative I run, always look kinda smooth.

First of all you look hard and lean and I would say it’s a good time to start putting on mass when you’re finished this cycle. Also, your dosages are nice and low so there’s no issue there. You can slowly switch to long esters and maybe throw in something like oral turinabol to give you a boost at the start of your gaining phase.
-
Local injection doesn’t work for growth, that’s BS. It just makes the place temporarily swollen but nothing permanent.
-
Using Slin pre workout and Plazma during your workout is the best mass combo you can use. There isn’t interference with GH, in fact quite the opposite… Insulin and GH crate igf1 which is a hormone that you want a lot of in your body while you’re training. Because you’re so lean, I think using 5-10iu of insulin + 50-100g of carbs from Plazma will be very beneficial to you in terms of gaining lean mass. Do the insulin about 10-15min before you start training.

If my session is very hard that day and I feel like I need more carbs, I will add another scoop of Plazma to my intraworkout shake (assuming I’m not dieting, when I’m dieting there’s no room to add extras)
In the days I’m not training, I’ll add a protein meal to replace the protein from my Plazma. In my offseason I’m not trying to lose fat but just keep it under 10% through constantly eating clean, so this is why I allow myself to add the extra protein in my off days.

I experienced the same thing since starting with Plazma, now I can’t train without it. What you can do if you want to add a bit of mass is add Humalog pre workout, something like 5-10iu just before you start sipping your Plazma, it will help you add new muscle along with a bit of water retention. The water will go away as soon as you stop the insulin and you’ll keep the new muscle you earned. It will also help you a little bit with strength.
I agree with you about tapering the test down slowly and not just go straight to a cruise dosage. The human body doesn’t like any drastic changes so slowly tapering down into the cruise is a much better idea. You definitely know your shit… good for you for doing your research!

Every 3rd day is the best if you can keep track of it because then it’s at consistent levels in your body but if you don’t have a good memory and you’ll likely miss shots then you can pick specific days.

It also depends on the amount of time you’ve been training, I found that once I passed the age 30 I was able to achieve this look. Also, the more times you get down into contest shape the grainier you’ll look. After I did about 20 shows I started noticing it more and more.

Alright I can definitely keep track, consistency in the test levels was what I was curious about. If i have room in my budget for one more compound, oral or injectable, what would be my best bet to keep my gains fairly dry? (keeping in consideration that i am trying to keep dosages/compounds as mild as possible) aside from diet, which I already have written up for me.
or is sust dosed that low going to produce minimal water retention in general?

i did a research but its mainly been paying attention to how my body reacts and what it likes… i’ve learned more from trial and error on what works well for me… all the little things added up to made the biggest difference in my training and diet and supplement use… its easy to see when you nail things perfectly because the gains and strength hit fast and hard.
Shadow, here’s a pic from this morning after my last workout before the show. Seems like I’m drying out decently. I will keep you updated after the show. I’m headed to Denver now. Probably won’t have to run any water pills or anything. A friend is suggesting to have a bunch of fat the night before (peanut butter etc.) Any thoughts on that? He was even saying pizza…but I’m going to wait until after the show and see how I look the next day to see whether or not I’ll do that before the next show. Anyway, Thank you again so much for everything you’ve helped me with.
^ fucking brilliant physique there!

If my session is very hard that day and I feel like I need more carbs, I will add another scoop of Plazma to my intraworkout shake (assuming I’m not dieting, when I’m dieting there’s no room to add extras)
In the days I’m not training, I’ll add a protein meal to replace the protein from my Plazma. In my offseason I’m not trying to lose fat but just keep it under 10% through constantly eating clean, so this is why I allow myself to add the extra protein in my off days.

interesting, thanks!
what’s your favorite exercise for each body part? abs? legs? just curious haha sorry if I’m asking too many q’s
hi shadow. read pretty much the whole of your last thread. amazing advice and i take my hat off to you giving users your time and knowledge. i joined this forum just to join in on any possible questions i could ask…
p.s im not a troll etc. quick stats before im bombarded with stats replys lol
age: 26
height: 5.11"
weight: 234lb
training: around 8years
anything else just ask.
anyways…i had two questions which have kind of been covered so apologies if you feel like you are repeating yourself.
-
i see you rate proviron. do you think it helps with gains at while run on cylce with regards to allowing more free test etc.
-
i also see you rate test/tren/EQ cycle for the off season. i have ran tren a few times and tolerate the sides very well. it is hands down the BEST compound i have ran by far! lasy cycle was prop/tren/dbol. amazing cycle. planning next cycle. cannot decide whether to run a 10week short eatwr cycle like this
test prop 100mg ed 1-10
tren ace 100mg ed 1-8
dbol 40-50mg ed 1-6
i prefer the short ester cycles,for quicker pct and recovery and can cycle sooner rather than waiting longer to cycle again.
or maybe give EQ a try?? i have never ran EQ i have read alot of people saying it us useless and not wortg it. just wanted your opinion on it and its benefits.
if i ran EQ i would cycle it like this maybe
test 400…600mg ew 1-16
EQ 600mg ew 1-16
dbol 40-50mg ed 1-6
tren ace 100mg ed after the 6weeks of dbol
although this is like 2g a week if gear. maybe overkill?
#note it is a off season/bulking cycle.
appreciate your time.
