First I am not really looking for diet advice. I will be getting a trainer for my diet/workout, but I wanted to give you a little of my background before going into my first cycle. I will gladly take any advice you are willing to give.
Age: 33
Height: 6'1"
Weight: 165 lbs
Body fat: 7% ish. (based off of electronic scale)
Years lifting: 15 years on and off, last 3 years have been an average of 5 days a week in the gym.
Last year I got a local contest prep coach that helped with the diet/lifting.
I train in the morning before work, here is my diet for the day.
Diet:
1 scoop whey w/ 2 egg whites
1/2 serv. Karolyn
Go to Gym (lift for about 1 hour-1hr 15min)
1/2 cup pineapple
2 scoop whey
1st meal (7 am):
7 egg whites, 1 cup oatmeal, 1/4 cup blueberries or strawberries
2nd meal (10 am):
7 oz Chicken, 1/2 avocado (or MCT oil), 1.5 cup pasta
3rd meal (2 pm)
8 oz beef, 1 cup white rice, asparagus or broccoli
4th meal (6 pm)
7 oz chicken/turkey or fish, 8oz sweet potato or white potato, spinach or broccoli
5th meal (9 pm)
6 egg whites, 1 scoop mass gainer, 1 tablespoon MCT oil
Total comes to 3139 calories (40% protein, 42% carbs, 18% fat)
Training:
Monday-Friday
Monday: Back and Bicep, Tuesday: Chest and Tricep, Wed: Shoulders, Thursday: Legs, Friday: Shoulders.
I am currently trying to bulk, but my body has a very hard time gaining weight. I will up my calories by 200-300 in a few weeks, but I am already force feeding myself. I currently weight around 165lbs, my goal is to bulk up to around 200lbs and cut back to 185 where I can maintain. My last bulking cycle I went from 159 to 175 (clean) and cut back down to 165, where I am at now. I have been reading all the stickies and re-reading them in prep for my first cycle.
CYCLE:
Blood test approx 2-3 weeks prior to the start of the cycle
Test E 250mgX2 Week 1-12 (total of 500mg weekly)
Aromasin 12.5mg ED Week 1-12
HCG 250iuX2 Week 1-14 (Stop 3 days before PCT)
N-Acetyl Cysteine 600mg ED
Finasteride 5mg ED Week 1-15, then maybe lower dosage to .5-1mg ED
I will have Raloxifene on hand for gyno, if needed I plan on starting with 120mg/day for the first week, then 60mg/day every week after until gone (suggested 8 weeks minimum). But I am not sure I will know if/when I have it. But hopefully, its obvious and I don't get it...
Blood test 7 weeks into the cycle
PCT Layout:
Clomid 75mg ED Week 15
Nolva 40mg ED Week 15
Clomid 50mg ED Week 16-19
Nolva 20mg ED Week 16-19
Blood test 6 weeks after PCT completion.
Anyways, what am I missing? What would you change? What am I doing wrong?
I will post my blood test prior to starting the first cycle.
