Olddog's first cycle and results
 

Well just finished my first cycle. I start PCT tomorrow
This was test e (Kalpa) for 12 weeks. 500-600 a week in 2 doses

I started at 172 lbs At the end of week 12 I was at 216. I was puffy too.

At about week 8 I started on clen and t3 lost about 8 lbs on the first 2 week cycle.

I would have started a second cycle of clen on the 1st of Aug but have supply issues right now.

My test cycle ended 2 weeks ago today. Last night I weighed in at 201 and Ive lost the puffy roll of water around the middle for the most part,

Workout schedule has not changed. I lift mon,wed,fri and i do 1 hour cardio on an Elliptical machine at 135-140 heart rate 7 days a week.
Diet is ok, not great but not bad either. Chow hall food and lots of tuna.

Im 56 years old 6 ft and now 201.
I will say that I am stronger than I have ever been. I actually look ALOT better.
Vascularity is starting to show, which is cool.
Not a bodybuilder body ( yet) but certainly look in pretty good shape for my age.
My bench has always ( ever since a kid) been my worst. Im almost ashamed of putting up numbers. Percentages are more impressive at least to me BUT

bench started at 125 ( bad shoulders) now 175
curls 40 now 75
leg press 200 now 850
military press 65 now 155
triceps cable push downs 60 now 145

so you can see that there is a great % gain. Im pretty happy for a single cycle. In the last 14 weeks I have missed the gym only 2 days and that was due to rocket attack so I will accept that as an excuse.
I dont really have any before pics, I do have one but I have a shirt on I just look old and frail.
Not that way anymore.

Im looking to do my next cycle as more of a building and cutting. I dont want to gain any fat if I can help it.

Years ago I was over 300. 3years ago I had a gastric bypass and went to 168. So Im rebuilding. Some loose skin but not too much. Hoping I can take up the skin issues by filling with lean muscle mass.

So thanks Hypermucsles for getting me on my way. Clearly this is just a start

Excellent post OD, thanks for posting!


Sent from the darkest region of my brain!!

He bro wow that is great i am well happy for you :D hope you keep getting bigger and bigger :D great results. do you train for size, strenght or a bit of both??

Excellent news and an excellent post, glad you're happy with the results

I think a rocket attack is a good enough reason to miss the odd workout!

my workout changes some really depending on what I want to do that day

changes as in type of sets and rep. Started mainly on 3 sets 5 reps'
now I mix that with a couple of muscle exhaustion sets to failure.

Im probably going to concentrate on a little lighter weight and more reps for now. Say sets of 8-12 rep 5 sets. Im looking for size at this point.

Ill be asking for help on the next cycle too
suggestions are welcomed Im looking for lean size and to continue building
The test e cycle I was on did put on a lot of water AND EVERY SINGLE INJECTION HURT LIKE HELL TWO DAYS AFTER.

Every pin was swollen sore and red. Normally took 4-5 days to go away.
Maybe it was the E and test P would be better

like I said Im open to suggestions.

You can see a pretty big change nice one :D

update
 

I am about halfway through the PCT

Ive lost lots of puffyness and water.

At the end of the test e cycle I was 216lbs
Now Im 195
that is still almost a 20 pound gain.

Waist is back down to 32
I am seeing SOME definition but not anywhere close to where I will be. This was my first cycle and Im very happy with the results. Several folks that had not seen me in a few months all ask " Wow, you been working out?" yep!!
that is nice to here as you dont always see what others see.

I start my next clen/t3 cycle tomorrow and in about a month and a half with cycle aas again.
Looking at
test p 500mg 8 weeks
tren a 75mg eod 8 weeks
anavar 50mg ed 8 weeks

then I need a good PCT

looking at
100mg clomid for 2 weeks starting 14 days after last AAS injection
40mg nolvadex 2 weeks
then 50 clomid for 2 weeks
20 nolvadex for 2 weeks

not looking at HCG yet Not sure of the best way to use it with this one since I should not have the estrogen issues as I did with the test E 12 weeks

Any thoughts?

hey old dog remember time on cycle means time off cycle to just be safe ok. also tren is a very stong drug to use on a second cycle i just started my 3th cycle to day and im doing test prop 400mgs a week and dbol at 50mgs a day both for 8 weeks. u could do something like my cycle maybe lower the dbol a bit or stick with the anavar (i know most people would say up the anavar closer to 70mgs a day) id just change the tren tbh good cycle doe would be worth doing that in the future maybe???

looks pretty good. cannot comment on the pct. do not use
