Opinions wanted for next cycle.

[ezred]

Ur going in for SF training huh.

What branch?

Shit is super tough... I may try myself out in that area, but maybe in a year or so.

Get back at me with how it is.

The only part I think I would need to work on is that 15 mile run in combat boots.

special forces is no joke... i don't care which branch you go into.

i can tell you this, it isn't just something you "try out" and you don't even get to go class up until after you've passed your basic training which means you're stuck if you don't make it.... so if you want that, that needs to be ALL you want. you gotta have the drive, the focus, the desire to push through ANYTHING, to not stop until you've gotten your trident, or whatever the ranger and recon equivalents are....

you better be ready and willing to eat dog shit for breakfast lunch and dinner and piss molten lava every day for a year just to get to make it thru to the end.

and it isn't the runs that kill you man, it's the culmination of everything they throw at you, to keep pushing and pushing and pushing and getting pushed and pushed and pushed and get to the end of the day just to sleep a few hours maybe and get up and do it all again. that shit wears on you week after week. mentally... physically.... it takes you to places you never imagined.

during sniper school i was laying in 2 inches of slow and slush and mud trying to qualify. Try taking a shot at a stop and go target in that shit at 900 yards. lol

of course i still got high shooter.

I know what you mean.
My uncle who served int he paratroops for 20+ years was describing these sorts of things.

Only thing i am bothered about is my eyesight tbh

It ain't the best in the world.
Just hope it doesn't get in the way as its something i can't physically or mentally change.

yeah i was us navy, had a cousin in marine recon and have another cousin still the rangers. they all said the same stuff and had stories from their respective training that were the same as mine. doing a long swim toward the end i had a guy i was pushing to try to keep going and they came by on the boat, we didn't know how long we had to swim we were just pushing away but dude was having troubles and wanted to stop i kept pushing him and pushing him and bm1 on the rhib sitting there talking junk trying to coax him into quitting he finally did and 30 seconds later they hauled me in saying it was done. i think they were just waiting for him (or me, but it was clearly gonna be him) to throw in the towel.

it's not the shit you were laying in that would bother me as much as the fact that you'd probably have to lay in it for like a day just to get that one shot!

my cousin did sniper in recon before he got out, had some stories...

I can't wait to see how far i can push myself.

Not looking forward to the underwater tunnels.
Other than that i can't wait.

Well guys Due to certain circumstances i have acquired myself $500 worth of free gear.
So instead of my big long ass 16 week cycle.
I was wondering if someone could recommend me a good short Blast cycle.
Prefer something for my joints in the mix as my shoulder starting to give up on me.

Don't mind pinning at all
wouldn't fancy ED but EOD is fine.
Been looking at things like prop,suspension,and a lot of other short ester gear.
Some say doing long esters for 8 weeks starting at 600mg then adding 200mg each week.
Some have even reccomened a tren Prop cycle....:/
You guys opinions on this have always been better.
Lets see what you guys got.

you're gonna start pinning eod and want to pin ed...

pretty soon you'll be fiending, pinning test and tren base into your tongue before your pre-workout and bed time shakes.

careful this team of aussies we used to cross paths with on occasion lost a guy when he put his launcher in the sand like that and shouldered it later and a scorpion (the bug not the missile or sub machine gun) came with it and got him right in the side of the neck. he misfired and took the better part of 2 camels and a local guide with him.

LOL i meant i have no issues with Pinning EOD by don't want to do ED.

Don't worry i won't be sticking something with that much fire power in the sand lol.
Funny enough this pic was taken from an aussie site.

when are you coming off cycle? And when are you planning on going in the commandos?

Again, i don't like the idea of burst cycles. Short cycles in general. But since you'll be going in the CMs, I really don't like the idea of newly acquired mass if its too close to your entry date.

i know i was saying right NOW you say you don't want to pin ED but you will once you start pinning eod..... you'll need your FIX!

and yeah, those aussies stick out like sore thumbs.... that's what brought that memory back was the guy, more than the rpg in the sand!

and it doesn't have to be an rpg. my cousin told me a story about when he was going thru recon training a guy didn't clear his chamber properly and was playing with his mg in the latrine shot thru the door and took out a recruit's kneecaps. PURPLE HEART!

then again my cousin's a lying sack of shit. point is, weird shit happens!

we were trekking through some hostile territory in iraq back in '04 or '05 and stopped off at a camp, al assad.... were getting some mortar potshots and shit at night and a rocket came thru and and ricochets off some shit and crushes a dude in his sleep..... a dud.... right on his chest....died in his sleep....stupid luck

i think he was extending this cycle out with Sustanon (sust) from 12 weeks to 16 weeks or something.

i'd almost just throw in npp and run that out to 18 or 20 as-is then call it quits till the 'mandos.... i think he is thinking of heading to basic training in about 1 year.

personally i'd say keep 6-8 months on the backend for recovery and to normalize again before shipping off.

yeah, NPP was exactly what I was thinking. If he's got a year I'd run it to 24 weeks and really get jacked.

Also agree 6 to 8 months of recovery... especially adding a 19nor.

Should be heading to Training sometime around Sep-Nov

Sent you a pm regarding the reason i bring this back up.

yeah 24 sounds better for a variety of reasons. but i'm the newbie so i'm not allowed to recommend anything near that long to fellow aas young'uns! hehe.
