+ 2 Summer Strength for Sprint Swimmer and losing body fat
I am 205 pound former athlete in swimming, although I still swim regularly 5 or 6 days a week with a lifting regiment of 3 or 4 times a week in the mornings. Specifically I am a sprinter swimmer and although many people have this misconception about swimmers as tall gangly guys, sprinters are kinda the opposite. Sprinter swimmers can be tall and gangly or tall/medium height and extremely muscular. I am the latter.
So here is what I will tell you:
I am 26 years old, 6'1, 205 pounds, and probably as of right now 12% body fat. My body looks like a swimmers with the very broad swimmer shoulders I have, however I have a big rear which is not a swimmers look. ( I would love to get rid of the fat on that, last place to leave though... :( )
So my goals for this summer is to increase my strength and loose a bit of fat, but most of all gain speed.
In the past I have done: a just Sust Cycle, a tbol only cycle (not really any results), and a Prop/ Anavar cycle (which I had to cut short because of an injection infection, yes I know I was a dumbass).
This summer I am going to complete the Anavar/ Prop cycle, but not be injecting ED (really tired me out from pinning).
So the list is Prop 150 EOD, Anavar 25mg daily week 1 then 50mg daily afterwards until week 7. Nolva 20mg daily for 4 weeks, Clomid for 4 weeks
Please let me know what you think of this cycle. Critiques are absolutely welcome.
P.S. I do get tested and know my testing date is around the 2nd/3rd week of September. Yes, you can voice your opinion about me not doing gear and how its a bad idea, but I have made up my mind. I would much rather prefer if you gave helpful critiques to the cycle I have laid out.
Thanks
The Prop Cycle is by week. The Anavar cycle and PCT listed below is the daily dose I would be taking that week

Hey there sorry for the late response, I have been out of the country with no internet.
Thanks for the replies and sorry for the delayed responses.
Maybe I missed it in your description, but when exactly are you starting? Looks like a good cycle for your goals and you basically choose the compounds that will clear the fastest. But I would really try to give myself 6-8 weeks for these drugs to clear the system to be on the safe side. I know most of the info says they clear very quickly, but better safe then sorry. Another thing to worry about. Do they test for serms like clomid and nolva?
I plan to start on May 25th. The tests say they do test for SARMS, but the test administered is just usually a street drug test. Although there is one time a year they do a full panel drug test (those are expensive). Usually the full panel ones are in December.
Wasn't Phelps eating 10k Cal a day?

I love swimming! it's a great workout. It helped save me a few years back when I was Badly out of shape. I was suffering heavily from injuries from the war, and I was derpessed.
Hormone levels were snake shit low!
Swiming and I would take ANimal test from Universal Nutrition.
Have you got your diet locked on?
Eh Phelps was eating somewhat close to that number. Its actually not surprising given how much I ate during training time. I eat roughly 6-7 thousand calories a day, with minimal weight gain. I'm glad you have recovered/recovering from fighting in the war and personal thank you for protecting us and making sacrifice.
As for my diet, I am still working on it. I am starting to eat healthy (a lot of my fish friends) and ramping up on the lifting/running/swimming aspects.
I have tried ANimal test a couple times, I could never fully follow it.
You are cutting it really close. This cycle - if you started it today - would take you into mid August.
With testing in Sept, you are going to register.
I am also assuming that whatever meet you have planned is around the same time as the testing dates...which has you right in your PCT...not a time when you want to peak for a race.
My experience is that while on cycle my endurance is dragged down a bit, and I can't swim/bike/run at the same intensity as off cycle. IMHO, you might better postpone this one, and train (in the water) hard.
I totally agree bro. Pct is not a good time to be trying to peak for a race.
@irongame and Jason: Thanks for the insight. I know I would be cutting it really close. Maybe cut it back a week and do 7 weeks of test and 6 of var? I am not trying to peak for a specific race this summer just get leaner/stronger/faster.
