I'm 170lb, been training natural for 3 years, plateaued several times but got past that by mixing things up including diet as well as training. Found downtime was very important so occasionally just gave the body a rest and found that I was stronger when I started training again. I have no idea what the science is behind that but it works trust me. I'm talking 2 week breaks not 3 months lol. Anyway, I kept gaining for around 2.7 years but after no more strength gains after 3 years I came to the conclusion that I'd reached the peak I ever will naturally. With me the satisfaction comes from being able to do one more rep or add a tiny bit of weight every week. When I can't do that I feel disheartened and know I can't be improving so now I'm going to do my first cycle with a little trepidation but confident in the advice I've been given and eager to see what steroids do for me. Just a little back history, when I first joined eroids, it was to get cycle advice and I was told to go away and lose some bodyfat. I was 180lb then at 20% bodyfat. I went away for a coupe of months and dieted to get down to 12% bodyfat at 170lb.

I started my cycle on Monday but couldn't work out how to post my cycle log but Makwa has just helped me as well as given me lots of great diet advice. Hats off to Makwa for taking an interest and giving me great advice. One of his tips was to track my macros and this has also proved to be very useful. The macro tracking app I use actually tells me if I've eaten enough on any particular day, to reach my goals and obviously tells me percentages of protein, fats and carbs I'm taking in. I now weigh my food, which is all on the healthy spectrum, found I needed to tweak some things, mainly my carb intake needed to be raised as I had been on a very low carb diet and it goes against the grain to lose s lot of bodyfat, see your abs and then consume lots of carbs to see your muscles grow. Well I've done that and am hitting the sweet spot that Makwa recommended of 40/30/30. I already feel larger and am stronger yet I know the steroids can't have kicked in yet so that must be down to diet and training. I'll cut this short as I feel I am rambling now so lets cut to the quick and I'll let you know what my cycle will be and my gym split.

Cycle is 500mg Test Cyp for 12 weeks, 2 weeks after last shot Nolva and Clomid PCT, Adex on hand in case of gyno issues.

My training split is 5 days per week, one body part per day, 5 exercises per body part, 3 sets per exercise, rep range between 8 and 13. If I reach 13 reps I up the weight, If I can't do 8 reps I'm too heavy. I aim to add at least a rep to each exercise every week. That way I know I'm getting stronger and making progress. My goal is to gain 20lb on cycle which I know won't all be muscle but that's what I'm aiming for.
