First competition bulk cycle of 2019
First cycle of the year to start out the competition season and am hoping to add about 50lb to my total.
6’, 200 lb about 15% BF
Current lifts are
Squat: 220kg
Bench: 180kg
DL: 275kg
I’m a super sensitive responder so I only cycle low amounts, but long cycles including orals. Also not planning on a PCT, just some HCG near the end and then back on a TRT dose.
I’m at week 7 and have put on about 2.2kg of solid mass not counting water weight from the Adrol.
Don’t count macros, I don’t care about my body weight only doing it clean, so no junk food but do maintain a decent high protein, moderate carb diet. Cardio 3 times a week and high ntensity training focusing on the 3 main lifts.
I’ll post some progress as things move along, but have about 11 weeks left.

Nothing like taking test and adrol but not caring what you weigh nor painstakingly caring about your diet.
Combine that with no planned PCT protocol and this plans seems to be setting yourself up for failure.
He's running TRT, no PCT needed. HCG is just for his ball size bounce back I'd imagine.
Is there a reason why you don't include deca or E.Q to help with joints esp. if you are training hard for upcoming competitions?
I don’t usually have a problem with joints when on adrol and I don’t have any experience adding deca mid cycle especially since it takes so long and should be run for several months. I do like to run deca and test after my first of the year cycles, and this year I’m thinking of running NPP instead but I don’t have any experience with the short ester. Any suggestions? I typically run deca for 18 weeks at about 400mg/wk along with test at 500mg/wk. what would be a good equivant dose of NPP?
Same amount, 400mg. Some folks believe the shorter the ester the higher percentage of the mg's that are actually absorbed. Not sure if this is fact or anecdote. Either way, it's an EOD injection to keep blood levels stable. Comes out to around 60mg EOD.
Was going to ask why the need for ai the whole cycle? Is this because you know you need it based on bloods or just playing it safe?
I'll give that a shot on my next cycle. I got a few bottles so hopefully it reacts the same or me as Deca does. I don't bloat or slow down or anything and dose my AI and caber accordingly. Haven't had a problem with noodle dick either (fingers crossed).
My next cycle, I'm thinking of running about 600mg test /wk, along side NPP at about 200 mg /wk then ramping it up to about 800 mg test and 400 mg NPP about half way through, really depending on how I feel. This cycle has taking a lot out of me for some reason. I have been training about 4 times a week, 2 heavy days, 2 light and slow, with cardio on the light days but I have been extremely tired. There are other things in life that have slowed me down so I don't necessarily equate the drugs to how I feel. Work, family, life seem to be the culprits.
I may cut the cycle short just to get back on my feet - but luckily, no injuries and have gained some decent strength. ADrol was a pain in the ass though - started getting major headaches at about week 3 and did some blood work and BP tests. Things were not looking so great so I cut it down to about 25mg / day and started to feel a lot better. I was able to extend the ADrol to roughly 6 weeks and still kept and gained strength.
I'm not really looking for size since I'm in the weight class I want to be in, but i'm interested in trying out some new compounds. I typically stick with ADrol, test, and deca - but if anyone has any other suggestions that are great for strength - I'm up for it. I will not be touching Halo, Tren, or EQ though. I'm already angry enough and don't need anything to add to it.
I base the dosage off of blood levels throughout the cycle. I typically do several blood samples throughout a long cycle like this because of how long it is, and i actually ended up tapering back a bit because my levels started to drop a bit. Not sure why they dropped but I'm glad I caught it.
Bloods would show it's necessity, yes. It's kind of a common sense thing though mostly. The aromatization of testosterone that will occur...It's possible that you wouldn't need an AI though. The possibility would however be a rare one. You'd need to have a shit ton of androgen receptors, lots and lots of muscle, to have so much binding that you needn't worry about the issue(dose dependent of course), or have stellar/gifted/lucky genes that make you insensitive to the estrogen.
You haven't seen his blood results, you don't know that for sure. I run 600mg test per weeks and don't absolutely need an ai. I think it's more common than people think. Also it diminishes strength and size gains. Not drastically but for me, I definitely like getting the full bang for my buck so to speak. I don't run an ai unless I know a certain compound I'll be running requires it (for me it's dbol).
".It's possible that you wouldn't need an AI though."
I need one for Dbol too...
