Not quite sure which section would be best for a before and after post for a cycle I didn’t keep a log for, but I’m starting a log for the next cycle so I’ll just consider this as post one of it since I didn’t make a log for my first cycle.
I kind of want to give the members of UGM an idea of where I started before hopping on gear, so here’s a picture of me around 2 months before my first cycle
I was pretty lean but definitely not big, at around 165 10% bf at 5’11. I had been fat as a teenager so after losing the weight I tried to stay on the leaner side, but after kind of getting into powerlifting I knew I wanted to get a lot bigger even if it meant getting a little more up there in bf%, so I started bulking without any compounds at first (I don’t have any pictures of me during this time, but I put on a good 10 pounds before hopping on gear, putting me at around 175.)
After discovering UGM and doing a little research and experimentation, I hopped on a cycle of Test NPP and dbol (which became adrol about 3 weeks in due to my inability to take the pumps) and started putting on size rather quickly before plateauing a bit near the end with my end size being 210 15% bodyfat (picture below, I have a shitty old android camera so it’s not great)
Thats me several weeks ago and I’ve cut back to about 195 after shedding some water weight and losing a little muscle, and now I’m in the process of planning the next cycle, looking to push up to 225 this time time around, we’ll see how it goes.
Any thoughts or advice before I jump right in (besides the fact that I have the Jay Cutler midsection) are appreciated, as I kind of want to be a little more conservative with how much shit I’m taking but still want to get big results, and I’m still relatively new to “enhanced” lifting, so I’d appreciate any and all advice given.
