Weights
My husband pretty much tells me what I'm doing day to day at the gym, we hit all body parts once a week. I do extra squats at home, and am planning to hit legs 3 times a week with help from the var. Any and all leg pointers welcome!
Height 5'10"
weight 170ish

measurements 40-30-44
Still 5'10" 
weight 165
bf, 30
measurements 38-27-41
I didn't push as hard as I should have. And I ended the HGH way early, I didn't like it. I ended the var early also, it killed my ability to have an orgasm so it had to go. This was a learning cycle, I wanted to see if running longer cycle had any benefit. I do not think longer is better, but I had to see for myself. I seen the most results within 75 days. Diet is still the hardest thing for me. My lifts have went up dramatically. I'm happy with the results and looking forward to my next run. I plan to join the EBC, but until then I'm just going to let my body recuperate and work on my diet. I'm planning to run NPP and win for the EBC.
I added 50lbs to my squat

Looking amazing!
Updated
Looking better and better rooting for ya here! +1
Thank you, I'm trying to lean out a bit. Diet is the hardest part of all.
Killed it at the gym yesterday, feeling so much better today.
Well I was really sick for a while some stupid stomach thing, and then all my kids took turns getting sick so I've only been to the gym like 2 times in the last week and a half. I do have a squat rack down stairs I've used but it's not the same. I went to the gym yesterday and felt soooo weak :( I fucking hate that feeling. It's crazy how crappy you feel if you miss the gym for a week.
I'm going to get be back to my routine today and do my best to hit 4 group cardio classes a week. I have got to drop some BF by August. I'm going to measure/weigh and take a few pictures of my problems areas this after noon. Might have to start wearing black to the gym because it's gonna be a funeral for my fat!
Looking good Lady. You are really notice the difference around your hips and stomach.
How long are you going to carry on this cycle for? Only asking because I thought you could only do 8-10 weeks max at a time on Var?
Thanks its amazing what you can accomplish if you set your mind to it. I'm running 16 weeks. Men can only do 8 because they take a much higher dose, women can run longer. I had bloods done last Wednesday and my liver looks awesome so as long as I have no sides I'm going for 16. I'm about halfway, I never made it to 20mg I'm at 15.
Thanks for the info. I didn't realise we could run it for longer. I am thinking about carb cycling the last 4 weeks of this cycle to see what happens with my body fat. Not carb cycled before.
After that I think I am going to increase my calories more. I need to get some muscle building on glutes and I think to get anywhere near what I want I need more carbs and calories.
Still my bikini holiday is not until last 2 weeks of November so plenty of time yet.
Carb cycling is amazing! Once I started and my body adjusted, the cuts pushed through. I am a total believer.
Yeah I was doing good but I fell off the wagon and ate like shit this weekend. BOO!! It was worth it though lol I'm back at it today
We need those cheats sometimes for sanity lol But for me and my guy the guilt sinks in not to long after haha I'm oh man I have to do so much cardio and lifting tomorrow lol
Getting my fix for the day lol thank you
Your welcome, I do what I can for troop morale lol
It's been 67 days, the pics speak for themselves. I'm amazed.
Well I'm up to 185 on my squat, I only did it 3 times but I had good from so that's what counts. I've been amazed at the gains, I wish the fat would come off faster but I am trying to be patient. I carry all my fat in my lower body, I have fat calves it's fucking weird. I'd post a pic but it's not something you can see, they look normal but trust me there's a fat spot it drives me nuts. And lately my fat feels fatter LMAO. The more muscle I build, the harder I get which is great but it just makes the fat that's left feel well fat.
It's coming together slowly but surely. I've dropped the HGH down to .5 EOD. I don't know if it's doing anything at all, other than making my hair grow. I had a Dr.s appointment this past Wednesday and they tested my kidney and liver function, they said everything was perfect so I'm guessing the Var isn't hurting me.
AnonI haven't run var but winstrol made me feel the same way.. Thick and strong as hell. Clothes were still fitting but weight was going up, which was a great sign. Fat slowly came off until I really clamped down on diet and cardio. That dense feeling made me feel pretty badass though! Enjoy it!!
Yeah I've decided I need to up my cardio. My diet is as good as it's going to get, so I need to pick up the slack with more cardio. Seeing results is awesome but it just makes you want more lol
Started carb cycling and dropped 8 pounds in 4 days pretty cool. lol
That is fantastic result! Needless to say you'll be carrying on then?
Oh yes, carb cycling is the way to go. I'm starting to see some definition it's nice.
Alright I figured it was time for another update. I switched from 20mg split, to one 20mg in the morning because I couldn't sleep and it was making me nuts.
I am seeing great gains even though my diet still blows. I just can't eat enough, I'm getting better but still nowhere near 2000 calories a day,
My legs are starting to look great, I wore shorts for the first time ever a few days ago. And thanks to the MT2 I have a nice tan.
I'm going to start trying to shed a little fat, I'm going to start Vikings no carbs after 2 rule and see what that does. I've also added some HIIT on the bike once a week. I'm very close to my goals. If I could get about 5 pounds of fat off I would be thrilled. I've got 2 months to go, so it's time to pull out all the stops and make it happen.
Sounds great! I'll be keeping an eye on your cycle log with great interest +1
Dropping the HGH everything else is the same
AnonWhy are you dropping it?
I've changed my mind again lol I'm just lowering the dosage. .5 a day
My igf-1 is off the charts, my hair is growing way too fast and I'm crazy bloated. If the lower dose doesn't fix it I'll try it EOD.
AnonI'm gonna PM you.. Have a question or four for ya!
Well my diet still sucks, I eat clean but never make my calorie goal. It's just not possible, I'm never hungry. But Im making gains 135 is now my cool down weight on squat
I'm doing sets with 165
Wow looking good! I need to start taking some progression photos!
YES you do, honestly it's the most motivating thing ever. I had no idea my back looked like that. Pictures are the best way to measure progress IMHO
Probably will have my guy take some of me this weekend and post to my cycle I'm no too far in so it should still be a good base line
Took a new back shot today and was SHOCKED. Things are changing, mama's pleased.
So I had my body fat done yesterday, it's 27% lol I was WAY off. I'm guessing with this new knowledge I only want to lose about 10 pounds, I like most of my fat
I've done pretty good with my diet this week, hit my macros most days. Next week will be even better.

I don't know how you 'll get away with eating so few calories.. it will be interesting to see how much muscle mass you can put on. .. I hope that you'll post progress or even lack of progress every few weeks ..
I agree kodiakGRRL, you need MORE fats too. Fat is fuel!!! Protein is great but check out the Paleo Diet, the food is better and it's getting you towards pancreatic rest so you won't be hungry all the time and NO PORTION CONTROL!!!! Also look at Carb Backloading, it works for some people.
Try getting into a CrossFit gym, you'll see best results when you are moving weight around on your own without the assistance of a machine.
I don't use machines, I hate them.
I would LOVE to join a cross fit gym, I really want to learn how to clean and jerk. But I need a "family gym" with a daycare.
1900 is a lot for me, what would you have me do? I really want this to go well, eating is going to be the hardest part. But I know it's the most important.
I'm willing to do what you tell me, I know you know what you're talking about. I will be posting updates about every two weeks. I'm going to write down my max on a few things today and step on a scale. Hell I might even get my body fat done if I'm feeling froggy.
I'm still scared to eat, not gonna lie. I've spent many years avoiding food, I understand why that's wrong and I know I have to eat to achieve my goals. I've set aside most of my time this weekend to lay out my diet plan and go shopping so all advice is welcome and I do mean all. I want nice legs and I'll do whatever it takes to get em!
Just a suggestion. Eat more meals but lil meals
such as
meal 1 boiled eggs/fruit or oatmeal
meal 2 protein shake
meal 3 4oz chicken, rice, and veggies
meal 4 protein shake
meal 5 4 oz fish/chicken rice n veggies
meal 6 small snack if want but low carbs or no carbs
im not an expert on nutrition but may be lil more for you to get protein.
That's what I'm going to have to do, I simply cannot hit 2300 cal a day. I almost hit 2000 yesterday but actually ended up vomiting by the end of the day it was just too much. I've decided to count carbs and protein only, making sure I get enough protein and not too many carbs. Force feeding myself is just not going to work.
Do you actually weigh your food? I've been thinking about it, but it seems like it would be a pain in the ass.
Get a food scale, it's a must when you are first starting out. Also try prepping your meals. I found the easiest is on Sunday cook 10 lbs of chicken breast and steam 4 lbs of broccoli. If you have a Sams or Costco near you can buy broccoli in the frozen section that come in steamer bags. Just throw them in the microwave!
I would also count your fats just to get a base for your meals. There are tons of apps out there that can help keep track of your macros.
I found a good app yesterday that lets you plan ahead. Tracking food is the hardest part for me. Cooking ahead of time is a brilliant idea.
Sundays are our prep days too(: it works best. Cook a whole bunch of chicken rice n mixed frozen veggies. Love broccoli mix.
I have started weighing it when meal prep. I just weigh the meat n the rest like rice I eyeball if look good in portion size. I tried carbcycling but its hard but it works on getting rid of the bloating look.
more protein than carbs ... sorry I don't count anymore.. I go by how I feel and what the mirror and my clothes are telling me..
That's good to hear, I actually hate carbs and counting things but until I get it down better it seems to be a must.
did you mean to post this in a cycle log or in the forum...I remember you from the other day...with you being a woman Im not sure if you meant to post this in the ladies lounge or cycle log but its written like a cycle log
It's a log but I felt it belonged over here in the ladies area. I looked through the cycle log forum and didn't see any girls, it was all men so I came over here
Yeah that's what I figured...you're trying to build legs right?
