Hey folks,
Starting my first cycle of test e 600mg /week tomorrow. I plan on the following:
Weeks 1-14 - Test e 600mg (Injections tues/saturday)
Weeks 2-14 - Arimadex .25 mg EOD
PCT Week 17-20(approx 14-18 days after last injection) - Nolvadex
I'll be running toco-8 throughout cycle and PCT
Goal: Put on muscle while staying relatively lean, keeping BF low.
Any critiques on the above? Should I add anything here?
Here are start pics taken yesterday:
Height: 6'2
Weight: 183 lbs
BF: 13%
Age: 24

Training
I will be doing micro-cycles for my training. Ex. First month, week 1 will be 12-15 reps, 2nd week 8-12 reps, 3rd week 6-8 reps, 4th week 4-6 reps. Second month, increase weight and repeat rep ranges above for the following 4 weeks. Repeat while increasing weight every week.
I will also be doing a mix of HIIT and steady state cardio 4-5 times a week, sometimes post-workout. Anyone do this? And is this a good idea?
Monday: Chest/Tris/Calves/15 Minutes HIIT Cardio
Tuesday: Back/Bis/Abs
Wednesday: Cardio - Swimming HIIT 20 minutes
Thursday: Shoulders-traps/Calves/Post-Workout Cardio Running 20 minutes HIIT
Friday: Legs/Abs
Saturday: 30 Minutes Steady State Cardio
Sunday - OFF
Any suggestions/critique on above?
Diet:
Below is the diet plan I came up with. Weight training 4x a week with HIIT cardio 4-5 times a week.
Weight: 183
Height: 6'2
BF%: 13%
Age: 24
BMR= 1982.69
TDEE: 3420 calories

Also, what do you guys think of whole wheat tortillas? How do they compare to brown rice or whole grain rotini pasta from a clean food persepctive? I know each tortilla has around 300mg of sodium so my other question is, how much sodium is too much while on this cycle? Does anyone think I have to much fiber in this plan?
On non workout day, i plan on removing 200 calories from this diet.
All your comments and suggestions are much appreciated. Thanks
