I've been reading up a lot the past few days and am still confused on how to tailor a cycle specific for my goals and whack genetics. Maybe i can get specific help.
I'm 25, 5'10", 185lbs, BF 16% - i tried to lower it with the cardio/lifting/nutrition for a few months and it didn't do jack. I've been lifting for 5 years. I'm prone to accumulate fat in my love handles/lower back. My goal is to be a solid 190-195lbs. with a BF of 10% (or lower God willing).
I started on my first 10 week DECA only cycle 300mg/week and am 3rd wk in. Never imagined juicin' that's why i started on something simple which i thought would make me rock solid and help shred some fat (knowing that more muscle will help burn fat/calories). Don't see too much a difference, but i feel stronger and my recovery time is much quicker so I can hit the weights harder. I hear week 5 is "the week". I've upped my calories to about 3000/day with protein around 250g, not too sure about carb intake. My lifting split looks like this:
Mon - chest/tris
Tues - back/bis
Wed-shoulders
Thurs-chest/tris
Fri-back/bis
Sat-legs
Sun-off
i may or may not be overtraining, but since on the Deca, i feel like my body can handle it.
I got to say though, i got pretty crappy muscular genetics, hardly any vacularity, no real cuts - apparently some thick skin with fat that doesn't want to go!, but i do look like I lift and can handle decent poundages. I got a slight case of gyno which i'm hoping to take care of through surgery sometime in the near future.
Any ideas for getting through the next 7 weeks? I want to be solid with more definition than i got now, but not necessarily be ripped because that may be asking too much. What should I plan on the future in terms cycling/nutrition/workouts (please be easy on the acronyms).
Thanks for any input.
