was an awesome workout!! shoulders were totally fried, rear delts were SWOLLEN after the face pulls..really liked them!!

Bi workout was good too.. still feel nice and full..
gonna try work on my shoulder press strength.. seated DB press isnt somethin i do much of. i usually do standin press so gonna try get my seated press strngth up so wil be keepi the reps low, no higher than 6 i reckon.. will start next weeks sesh on the 38's and prob move up to 40's and 42's.. delts still felt a little tired from wednesday's chest sesh!

think i'll add a motivational piece for the day..

like some of those exercises you used .. quite similar to wat I do and face pulls rock!!!! Try doing rear laterals and face pulls as a superset .. major pump in the rear delts and traps.

Hi mate, looking very solid in your pics.

Unfortunately you seem to be one of those people who show their abs at plus 12% bodyfat
...therefore you are revealed as a bastid of the highest order and I hate you with a passion

"...those aren't the roids you're looking for..."
"...those aren't the roids I'm looking for..."

haha... cheers..??.. kiddin,
yeah mate i think im around 14% ish.. like i said photos arent the best and, as cliched as it is, do not fully do my vascularity justice!!
but yeah abs are thru pretty nicely .. i tend to hold more of the fat in the handles of love!!

but hopefully i'll rid myself of those!!

cheers anyway mate

120kg x6
130kg x4
100kg x8 - very slow, strict a la Mike Mentzer HIT stylee...

Incline DB- started to pick up by this point.
46kg x6
50kg x4

Weighted Dips-
BW+35kg x6
BW+40kg x6 - just!!

Pec Dec-
78kg x8 - very slow reps with negatives and holds.. Felt Great!!

Hammer Chest Press- felt like i had more in me so did 1 set to failure.
Approx. 1/2 stack x6 - again HIT style

BB Curl-
50kg x6
50kg x5
40kg x6 - HIT style, very slow with negatives

! arm DB preacher curls-
16kg x8
18kg x6 - Need to up weight next time.. probs start on 18-20 kg.

Cable curls-
Approx. 1/2 stack x 9

decent session in the end and still feelin very full and pumped. but started off very sluggish. been arguin lots this wk wi the mrs and it puts my head in a mess regarding training! totally takes my drive and concentration away..
will try do more this week to ensure it doesnt happen much more often!!

been lookin into a proposed cycle for the near future..
was thinkin 1 of
8-10 wk prop at 350mg per wk with proviron at 50mg ed, or
10 wk test enan at 500mg per week with proviron at 50 mg ed..

plenty of time to plan it tho.. just pricin things up and gettin it sorted!!

I'll second that. I add that superset at the end of my back session.

mrm - I like the look of this journal. We've similar stats in terms of weight, deadlifting, and pressing, but you've got the edge over me on a few of them especially Squats!
I'll keep my eye on this and see how you progress.

For a 1st cycle, in terms of simplicity the Test Enan would be favourable purely for the less frequent jabbing. Thing is if your lifts are that good with just a couple of PH cycles under your belt, you'll be a proper monster once you hit the good stuff

cheers mate..
just looked thru ur journal too mate.. lookin good fella.. lookin at ur cycle too and possibly lookin to add some dianabol maybe..
what i want to achieve keeps on changin, now im thinkin that addin some fat and water bloat may not be all that bad... so was thinkin test e, prov and dianabol 8-10 week, dbol for first 4-5 week..
we'll see!!
my squat isnt that high anymore mate..
i changed to higher rep squats and then been doin front squats for last 2 month so my squat will be less than that now.. i'll prob rep out 4-6 reps with 140-150 these days but may stick with fronts as i like these a lot!!

defo gonna try the superset u and marsbar have suggested!! face pulls mad eme very happy the other day!! haha..

cheers again for droppin by fella!!

was thinkin test e, prov and dianabol 8-10 week, dbol for first 4-5 week.

Basically what I'm doing now.
1st cycle was Test E (500mg PW for 10 weeks) & SuperDrol (30mg per day for 4 weeks). Great strength gains, a lot of weight gain (some water retention). Strength was still there post-cycle though which I didn't find so much with Superdrol or Epi cycles.

Nice and simple 1st cycle to check how you react to Test. If you've done Superdrol then Dbol, IME, is not too much difference in terms of sides.

well thats the thing.. SD gets a bit of a bad rep from some people, yet i had a pretty nice time on it!pumps were awesome.. dint notice much water bloat etc, strength was crazy .. had a nose bleed in the gym a couple of times but that was it really!!
so yeah i think a simple test, dbol and prov cycle for 8-10 wk will do !!
gonna be doin a epi and tren x cycle v soon tho.. goin away in oct so want it done by then.. train natty over xmas and into new yr then prob start the above cycle in jan/ feb!!
cant wait now!!
