Contest prep/Syntherol log
 

HI all
Im a new guy here of course but not new to training or gear. I been training since i been 12 ( long time ago lol) using gear since the 90s but had a quite few year break due to life . fast forward , i always wanted to to a show and did my first one this year taking fourth in novice and fourth in the open .

Been talking with Huge Tom about kalpa gear and im going to run a log using his gear in contest prep .

I started this a few weeks ago running another labs gear until my Kalpa arrived . After HT and i figured out what we were going to do the gear was shipped and got to me pretty quick . Shipping times are important but in precontest mode its very nerve raking waiting on stuff to show up . GNB was on top of everythingand like i said shipped promptly

I started my prep July 5th for a nov 14th show. I want plenty of time to lean out slow and retain as much size as i can. Last show i started 16 weeks out and dropped from 210lb to 165 stage ready . Im hoping to be in the light heavies this time

My quads need more size so im running a syntherol protocol on them . I already started using it a few weeks ago and can see a sizable difference in them . Im very pleased so far with how things are going

. Im also not doing the tear drop for now . it will save some oil and hopefully still look ok

GBN and Huge Tom are a great thing. Very impressed with the progress you've made. I love how you blocked the page in your front pic. That's awesome.

Syntherol, that scares the crap out of me. I have not used it, but I was told it could be very painful. Is that true? I know some negative stories have come up recently, but I also know a few guys who recently told me they use it sparingly and get solid results.

Good luck on the competition. Let us know how it goes.

It can be a bit painful but if you take your time and do small steps with it its not to bad. MY quads feel like i did a leg workout every day . I have more updates to post till get up to speed here with where im at in my progress

I honestly get compliment on my legs in the gym here and there . People can see my sweep threw my sweat pants :D

Sweet. Well I'm looking forward to seeing updates. Good luck with get ready for the competition,

welcome to forum
good luck with your prep
will be watching this thread keep the log going

thanks for following along guys. I stop SEO the for two days , my one quads was tight and kinda hard ish . Massaged it and used my roller and it was fine . It prob would have been fine anyway but id rather be a bit on the cautious side than end up with a hard or lumpy muscle

going to fast forward a bit here . Ill post my progress pics with my weight. i was up to 223lbs but was retaining a ton of water so we ( i have a friend helping coach me ) decided to cut back on carbs and drop slin . I dropped 9 lbs the week after i did that . Still been running the 30lbs in 30 days less then slin

had to drop my orals last week so i only ran them 3 weeks . lethargy was getting the best of me

Got my package from GBN over the weekend. It was packed pretty good and arrived quickly. I pinned sus350 by itself to see if any pip. No pip going in and none this morning.. Also started eq300 and npp100. Will be doing

Sus350 mon/Wed/Fri
npp eod
eq300 mon/Wed /Fri

I'll probably run this for about 4 weeks then drop the sus and start cutstack
here is my lower back at 207lbs , cant find the 223lb pic but lower back was WAY softer
[IMG]http://i493.photobucket.com/albums/r...psucwagllc.jpg[/IMG]

last Saturdays weigh in was 202lbs . Puts me 15 weeks out . Im hoping in two more weeks to have my lower back tight and will hopefully add some soze from the npp and sus

[IMG]http://i493.photobucket.com/albums/r...pshoxaomzv.jpg[/IMG]

That tatt work is good. I hope you find success with this cycle.

today's weigh in and pics were kinda disappointing to me . weighed in at 202lbs and lower back looks no better. I did switch compounds so that might be the water retention . coach said we will wait till mid week and recheck things and go from there . giving time for the new stuff to work some more before we change things

[IMG]http://i493.photobucket.com/albums/r...psa1qolw3k.jpg[/IMG]

but I am extremely please with my seo,quads run. I went to the massage therapist later week and she worked me over . she was like dam,your quads are tight :D she got done and they were much better and I was more flexible


I went every other day pinning for a few days to make sure the muscle stays soft and I'm not as sore . I'm going to go into maintenance soon since I'm were I want to be with Thema

a little drop your drawers in the gym and flex pic lol :headbang:

You chosen way of hiding the face makes these pictures even more fun. Those legs are beast. You’re seeing good progress. I wouldn’t mind getting to 202. Do you have a diet and training log here?

Thanks brother, I working hard to get my quads up. Two things that hurt me last show was my quads and shoulders. I have a wider waist so the judges want to see more quad and delts on me

I will post my diet and training then, still trying to catch up here with the log. My diet is a modified version of John Meadows team u diet. My training is by him also. I purchased a few of his 12 week programs. Well worth the money spent, they are brutal

Cool! I'll take a look at them. I always like seeing what others are doing.

here is a updated meal plan. the protein power does change but the macros are close . the chicken is switched up with ground turkey or beef keeping the macros close as I can

[IMG]http://i493.photobucket.com/albums/r...psr7nzaqbm.png[/IMG]

I'll switch out the Ezekiel bread for muffins sometimes, the muffins are kick ass .I'll saute some onions and garlic then take the eggs and make a omelet then add the feta and some tomato . I spend the coconut oil on the bread (toasted) the sprinkle no Cal sweetener and some cinnamon . Pretty tasty breakfast

[IMG]http://i493.photobucket.com/albums/r...psexkmt6no.jpg[/IMG]

I’m just wondering, you cutting? Oh, I use Myfitnesspal too. And I think that food looks amazing. :)

So coconut oil, do you think it is better than olive oil? I have some, but I’ve been using olive oil for all my cooking.

Yeah I'm prepping for a show in November. Started out July 5th for a slow fat loss and hopefully gain a few pounds of muscle along give way

Coconut oil taste way different. I don't cook with it to much, just use it as a spread on my breads till I cut them bread out. I've done chicken in it where I cut breast into bite size pieces and used coconut oil to lightly fry them. It's not to bad and different. I've even tossed on some unsweetened coconut flakes to give it a bit extra

Thanks for the tip. I keep my diet simple, but I'm too king for ways to spice it up in a healthy way.

Good luck getting ready for the show. Sound like you have a plan, and I am told it's good thats half the battle. You more than I do. I'm looking forward to seeing the progress.

I'm the same way, always looking for a good healthy recipe or spice to jazz things up.

Hopefully if my plan is executed properly I'll come in 20lbs heavier then my last show and more conditioned.

Where there is a will, there is a way. Ha, I've always hated that saying. I've always wanted Megan Fox, I have plenty of will, but there is no way. :D

Seriously though, I bet you can do it. You set a goal, and if you follow it, you'll find success. Nothing but the best of luck to you.

Wow! I must be getting on a bit. My hams hurt just reading it.

No that is John Meadows, the guy that I get my workouts from. He is a beast

Bit of a meal plan change today. Dropped the ezekial bread :(, moved my 11:30 protein and rice meal to Preworkout. Switched to protein and rice meal for two cans of tuna in water, 11:30 meal now. I use a bit of onion, spicy mustard, old Bay, cayan pepper and season salt in my tuna.

The new meal plan is going great. I thought I\'d be hungrier

This week my waist is tighter and I don\'t feel as bloated. I did switch compounds up to

Now it\'s
1 ml Cutaxyl 150 ed Cutaxyl 150 | Kalpa Pharmaceuticals
1ml Boldaxyl 300 m/w/f Boldaxyl 300 | Boldenone Undecylenate | Kalpa Pharmaceuticals
1ml Trenboxyl Enanthate 200 m/w/fTrenboxyl Enanthate 200 | Trenbolone Enanthate | Kalpa Pharmaceuticals

T3 50mcg Clenbutaxyl | Clenbuterol Kalpa Pharmaceuticals
clen 80mcg Clenbutaxyl | Clenbuterol Kalpa Pharmaceuticals
split daily

I also started using 400mg l carnitine pre-workout. Definitely seems to give me some energy

Pretty happy with this week\'s progress. Waist tightened up some and diet is going good. Wasn\'t sure how the lack of carbs till pre-workout would be but I feel fine. Decided to drop the clen this week and hold off till I get to the stubborn fat left to run it again.... I think lol
