I'm coming to the conclusion my fat intake is about 10-20% too high, not being in keto and in a surplus with that high of fat intake means you get a mild 'flat tire' i'm holding a decent amount of SubQ fat despite being 10% bodyfat.

Also i've decided to pull the trigger and run some Syntherol in my calves. If I respond well to it maybe i'll think about using it on other body parts later in the year.

I was waiting to see the big man with the big lifts?

I'm being honest when I say i'd have to not hate the way I look to post pictures.
Let me swap compounds and i'll at least flash some quads, my leg development is getting pretty gnarly. Sitting here at 210+ saying how crazy small I feel even though I have more LBM on me now then I did when I was 250. Some dbol and carbs will change that quick.

 

[rAJJIN]

I’m teasing with you.
Yes dbol bloat and pizza are two of my favorites! Log looks good keep on making them gains.

As dorian yates always said "If it's there take it." A lot of my top sets feels great so i'll switch out another top set for my back off set, my recovery is doing much better now that the holidays are over so i'm willing to go balls to the wall.

Going to run syntherol in my calves starting next month. Low key excited to see what all of the fuss is about.

 

[IronLion2]

My last day of the tren/low test/var/drol. I'm underwhelmed with the var + drol w/ low test, but the var wasnt at a high dose and the drol wasnt all pre-workout like I normally used. I'm also sure the tren was just simply over powering the other compounds. 175 TestP is a small dose for me so I should be ready to blow up, probably added a small amount of bodyfat since I started blasting maybe 10-11% BF which was suppose to go down but oh well my strength went up.

Here comes the slin and anabolics CHOO CHOO. ALL ABROAD THE SWOLE TRAIN. Need to start drinking more water for this volumization phase, 1.5 gallons is needed with all these carbs.

So, you'll see less speed work and more tempo work for my max effort work with addition of anabolics and more sleep. Recovery is excellent and everything is going up, again if it's there fucking take that bitch. I've also taken my secondary squats like high bar, front, and zerchers as my dynamic squat and saving hack squat and leg press for accessory work.

So again it was 3iu GH + 15iu HumR preworkout, not in love with how winded and slow the pre-workout dosing is so thinking of changing it. It's crazy how good my recovery is right now though, never in my life have I made increases in almost every lift, every week. It's a testament to both auto-regulation and conjugate programming, fatigue management is a thing of the past. Also cant tell you how happy I am to have tren leaving my system, still have a few night sweats but my mood is starting to dim down.

To recap my AAS;
60mg NPP + 60mg TestP ED
25mg Dbol + 25mg Winny 2x ED
3iu GH + 15-25iu HumR + 5mg Cialis EoD

Diet;
Workout Days are roughly 350g CHO in the workout window and 350g P w/ 80g F
Off days are roughly 175g CHO and 300g P w/ 120g F

 

[IronLion2]

Would you believe me if I said this was without a pump? Actually checked my weight before I switched my AAS out, the increase in var and decrease in drol put me down to 204 and weighted in at 211 right before this pic. Crazy strength pound for pound, the best part is most of it has came from an increase in technique rather than just getting fat and taking big doses.

@rAJJIN did I do it right?

Dropped the volume down again by a tad, workouts are just too long for my schedule plus my max effort sets are getting very taxing which has made my accessory and assistance work much less intense. So instead of focusing on volume I just get as much tension/intensity as possible in a shorter period.

Added 500mcg of Letro yesterday and will continue with 250mcg E3D's, dose may need to go higher but we start with lowest effective dose on AI's/ancillaries.

Introducing 'movement specific prep' for two days rather than GPP work, right now that's pulldowns for bench and glute work for squats but MSP can be switched for GPP any day out of the week. If i'm feeling week at a certain spot in the deadlift I can switch GPP work for MSP work and hit some weighted drills to get firing. Eating dirty like 30% of the time and it's paying off, I eat so clean most of the time I really welcome the calories to anything at this point. On my days off work i'll get 160g of fat EASY, carbs on off days up to like 250 and on work out days up to 400.

Solid log. How did you like the drol/var combo.

Solid log. How did you like the drol/var combo.

I didnt find much synergy, would rather take 200mg of either every day than 200mg combined of both.

Eating like a pig now, no regrets. I'm done with fear of eating carbs without Slin, spacing them out evenly works best. Weight at 222.

I've been programming too many Max Effort singles from the floor on deadlift so I'm pulling from blocks until the end of this mesocycle and adding in Max Effort good mornings.
