Westside, Kiwi's and Training OCD!!!! welcome to my world...

shrugs were nice mate.. felt them much more than using the heavier weight and just shruggin and releasing..
u think 500mg again yeh? im game for that.. i just dint seem t get much more when i upped to 500 TBH, but im happy enough to go with it, i'll be using an oral for a longer period this time too so im lookin forward to what i can do on this :-)

Well more mg will always give more results but then how far do you want to take that, and how easy is it to maintain the gains from those higher doses early on in your AAS history. If you can still gain on 500mg then no need to go up IMHO... fair enough if those gains become a plateau, or the gains are quite minimal but considering you starte doff on 500 spread over 9-10 days, a consistant 500mg pw should be decent.

If you like, have enough to up the dose to go for a longer run (like I did last year, I started on 500mg pw and finished on 1g over 6 months). Worst case scenario, you don't make quite as much as you had hoped, next time round you are then good to go for 750.

Right, I'll get off my parental pedestal now

nah that makes sense mate TBH..
i'll start on 500 mg a wk, and depending on gains and how i feel, i may up it and extend cycle a tad longer..

there is isnt there.. in all honesty, when i was 'on' it was kind of like when a woman is pregnant! haha.. i was glowin :-) haha.. but seriously, i looked really healthy in terms of skin colour etc and like u said, i felt great inside! bit warm tho :-(.... plus im of the belief that steroids make u sexier!! haha.. it definately got me more success with women than i had experienced in a while:-)

You've editted your title, couldn't work it out for a second.

Good summation that LOL. I reckon it's the inner confidence that might help you with the fairer sex.... plus studies show they go for men with higher T levels (altho those with naturally higher T levels also display other physical traits/characteristics that will appeal as opposed to us sweating it out LOL)

i noticed  my journal had been editted.. i havent touched it mate, but it has now gone back to 'makin moves....' again.. at the top of each reply..
wierd.. i thought it would just show up as the title of my journal! :-(
yeh ur right mate, the highter T levels, extra confidence showin thru. plus the extra size i guess makes u stand out that bit extra! :-) yup.. cant wait for january! :-)

yup
definately is meant to be mate!
lookin forward to it.. will be a 12 weeker too.. was goin to throw in some deca and as well, but im not sure.. im not wanting masses of mass.. obviously it can be constrolled by diet etc, but im thinkin test at a more consistent higher dose than last time, and a longer ran oral should do the trick!!i'll probably get trigger happy tho and end up runnin some NPP for the last 4 weeks or so when the tbol stops knowing me.. :-) haha

today- CARDIO AND COMPLEXXXXXXXXXXX

STATIONARY BIKE- 30 MINS
@AVERAGE OF 100RPM
DISTANCE COVERED= APPROX 14KM

followed by,

BB COMPLEXXXXXXX- DEADS, BB ROWS, HANG CLEANS, PUSH PRESS, SQUATS
50 KG's
2 ROUNDS OF 10 REPS
90 SECS BETWEEN THE ROUNDS

 was pooped after this.. really went for it on the bike, upped my overall RPM average which was good, but i felt it. quads were pumped as hell. then had a bash at this complex and decided to go pretty heavy, and sh1t me it was hard!! baring in mind the complexes ive been doing in my garage have been with approx 25kilos on the bar!! so a jump to 50 was tough, but i managed it... just! forearms and hands were killin tho, gripp was dying off towards the end..

i'd be hurling after that workout.... lol, so glad i dont do that style of training anymore.

haha, mate i felt like hurling the other day definately!!

ok, so today-

LEGS-  day 2
Front squats
110x8
120x6
130x4  -- FS's felt really good today.. pretty sure 130x4 is a rep PB for that weight whilst 'unnassisted' :-) happy times, more in the tank i reckon.

BB squat jumps- supposed to be done first before FS's :-(
Empty Oly bar x 6 reps * 4 sets -- explosive jumps from the hole.

back raises (hypers)
+10kx15
+10kx10+ 5 reps BW
BWx15 --- my lower back gets soooooo pumped from these its ridiculous!! had t reduce weight completely..

Seated Med Ball twists ( feet up)
5kg Med ball x 20 reps * 3 sets -- these are just like crunches with ur feet in the air, twisting and touching the ground either side of u (for those of u who dont know what they are )..

FINISHER
2km BIKE SPRINT - Level 10 - averaged 115RPM - 3 mins 20secs --- this will get quicker :-)

no direct ham work in there, but in wk 3, ham work comes in, which i look forward to!
happy with the FS's tho.. im definately at a level now, on the whole, higher than i was before i started the cycle, so its looking good for when i start the cycle in january, and hopefully will pass the weights i reached at the height of my last cycle :-)

Look to be on a roll, good work there fella, nice FS

My journal

cheers mate..
yeh hopefully things, like u have been experiencing recently, are on the up and up!! :-) they kinda have been recently, but im happy with the 130x4, next weds the reps for squats are 7, 5 and 3 so i'll be goin heavier than 130; will probably break down like this-
110x8, 120x6, 130x4 wk 1
115x7, 125x5, 135x3 wk 2
120x6, 130x4, 140x2 wk 3
then the progression will be,
115x8, 125x6, 135x4, and so on.. so i'll be looking at a min of 5kg gain in the month on front squats, obviously this will be looked at if im feeling strogner than that, plus when im 'on' this will increase by more than 5k a month :-0 haha

Everyone round here is getting far too organised ATM, looks good tho bud

haha.. i think now that there is a kind of 'planned agenda' i can either hit it, or just increase it slightly when im there..
so it'll help as obviously theyre short term goals to be hit weekly, and i dont think i'll have any bother with them :-)

what a horrid last 4-5 days.. done so much work, and unfortunately have averaged about 1500 cals a day since saturday :-( not good.

just back from the gym, wasnt the best session, didnt even bother trying to keep up with what i normally do, it went like-

bench
130x7
140x3 --- Awful!  absolutely 0 energy wat so ever!! cant wait t start eatin properly again!!!!
Flat DB press-
30kx20
30kx16 -- once again, awful!! weights down a fair bit from last week, just nothiin in the tank at all

seated row / supersetted with tri pushdowns
67kx15* 3 sets / 77kx15 * 3 sets

DB shrugs / supersetted with / DB lateral raise
30x15 * 3 sets / 10k x 15 * 3 sets

so i got most of it done, 1 set down on both the supersets and dint bother with a 3rd set on bench...
knackered! bad timing too cos will be hit and miss over xmas time also :-( i hate interruptions to my routine! does my head in..

  

Bodybuilding Warehouse Board Rep

You still got in there and did something, not easy when you're running on empty tho... oddly I made basic strength can be not too bad, but zero endurance is what hits me.

The week or so interruption that is xmas will only take a couple of weeks to remedy in the new yesr tho, mate, no worries

i know what u mean mate.. i just hate it, especially when ur makin head way..
im thinkin train as and when i can til the gyms open up properly again, then get a couple of wks consistent trainin in, then......

12 wks sust
8 wks tbol :-)

cant wait

  

Bodybuilding Warehouse Board Rep

fu(kin hell mate i hate uni gettin in the way of training aswell...i seem to lose so much strength after just 1 week of not eating/training properly!

lack of food + stress = poor gym performance.... sucks doesnt it?

i remember work being so manic once i had little time to eat and when i did i wasnt hungry.
needless to say it had a knock on effect and i half assed a workout or two.

hope things settle down mate

yeh everythin is done now mate.. but unfortunately its xmas now so training will obviously be interrupted due to gyms shutting sporadically, so training is gonna be as and when the gyms are open over xmas, gonna take full advantage of each opening day i think..
but yeh, ive got plans in place to make 2010 a v v good yr all round for me, and its goin to be kicked off with a nice little 12 weeker from mid jan onwards..

  

Bodybuilding Warehouse Board Rep

Quite lucky at my place, the only day I HAVE to miss thru closure is Xmas day, and TBH I wouldn't train then anyway, otherwise, on paper, I don't miss a scheduled session....... I'm sure the Mrs will have a word or 2 to say about that tho LOL

Bodybuilding Warehouse Board Rep

ok, today- was supposed to do legs but today is the 2nd upper body day and my training partner was doin it so im gonna do legs tomorro or sunday

pull ups-
12, 8, 2 = 22 reps

Pulldowns- supersetted with / Standing DB shoulder press
67kx20                     /         20k x 20
67kx15                     /         20k x 20

Rolling Tricep extensions / supersetted with / DB hammers
18k x 8                        /              20kx8  * 5 supersets

Core circuit-
toe touchesx10
bicycle crunches x 10 each side
30 sec plank holds each side

100 press ups = 4 mins 26 secs

last week when we did the timed pushups, we were countin in our heads for each other as we dint have a timer, but we had my phone this wk, was much quicker than last wk so i must have been 5 mins or so last week.
next time i try these, im goin to do it in bursts of 5 reps or so, i tried 12 rep attempts this time and was still gassed when i got to like 65-70. think i'll do 5 on, 5 secs off, i reckon i could do the full 100 like that .. that would have me do it in under 3 mins 30 secs, which is my next goal.. it seems this one is as much about strategy as it is conditioning :-( feels great though..

Legs on a sunday! there's laws against that isn't there.

Those press ups sound nastier each time LOL
