My Rizky road to the stage
10-14-19
Well I thought I’d start a new log. I miss doing one and it really helps me to focus. I’ve always wanted to walk on stage for a bodybuilding show at least once. I know I have a long way to go. I don’t want to be the guy that doesn’t fit into the picture on stage. I’ve see it and it’s ridiculous.
My thanks to Riggs last spring for helping with leaning down and the proper gear to do it. And now Max for helping me with the process of getting to the stage, diet and workout plans, etc. My biggest obstacle is going to be stage fright. I know I sound like a pussy but its agonizing for me.
I’m 44 years old, 5’11”, currently 250 pounds. I have come up since July 3rd from 227 pounds when Max started helping me. Between the leaning up and official bulking, I just did a light cruise. Sept 28th started my current 20 week cycle (13.5 weeks left) with all Flex gear at the moment:
Mass bombs 50 (anadrol/dbol) twice a day for the 1st 4 weeks as a kicker
Weeks 1-20 the current regiment is
800mg EQ
600mg Test-E
400mg Mast-E
350mg NPP
I pin eod.
Caber on hand
Nolvadex Mon, Wed, Fri
Aromason 12.5 Mon, Fri
Food: 4200 calories, no added fat but I try to keep it at 125 or less, 500 carbs and 340 protein or more.
Most of the year I have been dealing with shoulder issues in my right shoulder. Did physical therapy and then bpc-157 and tb500. Those injections have been a God send. I’m almost 100% again. I also have herniated discs in the L4-L5/ L5-S1. I work around those. Had them for about 12 years. Just cant get too heavy with squats and other movements that compress the spine. I think the bpc and tb500 may be helping that too, though. My back has been more tolerant of weight than it has in the last few years.
. My lifestyle is a bit crazy due to my job. I have no schedule, on call 24/7 and travel constantly. Therefore a lot of my workouts happen in hotels and with whatever they offer. Usually dumbbells and cable machines. I try to get to a gym to do squats when possible.
And please feel free to critique me on every aspect. It’ll only help me to be better.

Have you considered lower doses. It looks like you have a ways to go, no judgement cuz I'm in the same boat but I think you could make a lot of progress with hard training and a decent diet before you need to start hammering the gear. Those are some heavy doses your starting with and I know I feel toxic on less.

I have considered lower doses, this isnt my first cycle though. For me, EQ seems to work best at the 600-800 range and I dont feel the other stuff is that high. But if you have a suggestion for tweaking my cycle, please let me know. I'm learning everyday. What makes me feel toxic is the orals. Was glad to get off of those.

I don't the cycle looks solid just a little advanced is all. I personally would just run a little test with either the eq or npp and cut some body fat then ramp up after a cruise when you are starting with a better body comp. From my experience I hold on to muscle with just a small amount of gear and hard training. I once ran over a gram and tried to bulk when I was over 20 percent and didn't grow anywhere except in the waist. If you can handle the gear and your bp and bloods are in check then enjoy. I just know my body wouldn't like it. Keep us posted

Appreciate the advice, different view points are partly why I like these logs. I was actually quite a bit leaner when I started this bulk. I had cut a lot of fluff. So the fat gain I have now is planned to pack on as much muscle as I can. 13 more weeks of gain, then I'll cut back again. And I'll cut deeper this time.
