OFF FROM WEIGHT TRAINING
 
My coach and I have planned my tentative PED protocol for 12 weeks out to 2 weeks out so I’m going to share that here along with the protocol I’ve used up to this point. This is all subject to change depending on results but we both feel this should be more than adequate and, if I do everything I need to do in the kitchen and in the gym, will support those efforts and provide the progress we’re seeking in order for me to be stage ready on September 28th. This is far and away my most aggressive cycle and, in my opinion, not a safe or conservative approach but my coach and I talked about it and I told him I’m willing to do WHATEVER is necessary to look my absolute best come show day in ALL ASPECTS of our plan: diet, cardio, training, supplementation, and drugs. Without any further conjecture, here is my tentative PED protocol:

T3 is not currently part of the plan but is in the toolbox if we need it. We’re hoping to avoid it but if I fall behind or have extremely stubborn body fat we will implement it.

I constructed a training protocol to implement for the final 12 weeks of my contest prep that my coach has reviewed, tweaked slightly, and approved. I did this for a couple reasons - I’d been performing the same movements in the same order within the same rep ranges for almost 20 weeks since it was giving me good results but both my coach and I feel it was time to switch it up to avoid mental boredom/stagnation and to give my body a shock. Also, we wanted to implement a program that is still centered around heavy, compound lifts with progressive overload but we wanted to add some intensity techniques to the training, particularly supersets, dropsets, partials, and rest pauses. Here is the training protocol we plan to execute for the final 12 weeks, beginning today:

Seventh Physique Update: Saturday July 7th, 2019

Today’s Weight (7/6/19): 192.6#
Last Update Weight (6/29/19): 195.1#
Total Weight Change: -2.5#
Days Left to Show: 84

I made more solid progress this week on both the scale and in the progress photos. The scale went down 2.5# and my physique is continuing to take on a harder, defined, and more separated appearance especially in the back shots. I had another week of total adherence to the protocol - I didn’t miss any meals or add any extra meals or food to meals, executed all cardio as prescribed, executed all training sessions with a high level of intensity, and took all PEDs and supplements as indicated. Both my coach and I are increasingly confident in the package we’re going to bring to the stage since we still have 12 weeks to make improvements and ALOT more tools to pull out of our kit to make those improvements. Small adjustments were made for this week - we added one more low day per week and we have added Clen at a very low dose (12.5 mcg upon waking and 12.5 mcg with meal 3) to the PED protocol. Low days are now Sunday, Monday, and Thursday and high days are Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday. My macro profiles remained the same and are as follows:
HIGH DAY TOTAL MACROS, TRAINING DAYS: 4,128 cals, 80 F, 388 C, 467 P
HIGH DAY TOTAL MACROS, OFF DAYS: 4,052 cals, 80 F, 377 C, 459 P
LOW DAY TOTAL MACROS, TRAINING DAYS: 3,670 cals, 72 F, 303 C, 448 P
LOW DAY TOTAL MACROS, OFF DAYS: 3,594 cals, 72 F, 292 C, 440 P
Progress photos are attached.

Sixth Physique Update: Saturday June 29th, 2019

Today’s Weight (6/29/19): 195.1#
Last Update Weight (6/22/19): 196.1#
Total Weight Change: -1.0#
Days Left to Show: 91

This week my coach and I feel was one of my best weeks of progress thus far. Although the scale only went down by a pound, we both feel there were significant improvements to my physique and I look the leanest, hardest, most defined, separated, and muscular I have so far. We both think I’ve put on a little bit of muscle as I’ve leaned out and we attribute that to a few things - I’m running the most aggressive cycle I’ve ever done, I’m consuming the highest amount of protein I ever have, and I’ve been training with a high level of intensity and focus. We agreed that it’s time to pick up the pace on the diet as I am now 3 months out of the show and decided to begin carb cycling. I’ll have 2 low days a week for now, Monday and Thursday, and high days every other day. The high days are the same macro profile and food sources as I used last week and the low days are approximately 450 calories, 85 grams of carbohydrates, and a few grams of fat and protein less then the high days. Specifically, my macro profiles are as follows:
HIGH DAY TOTAL MACROS, TRAINING DAYS: 4,128 cals, 80 F, 388 C, 467 P
HIGH DAY TOTAL MACROS, OFF DAYS: 4,052 cals, 80 F, 377 C, 459 P
LOW DAY TOTAL MACROS, TRAINING DAYS: 3,670 cals, 72 F, 303 C, 448 P
LOW DAY TOTAL MACROS, OFF DAYS: 3,594 cals, 72 F, 292 C, 440 P
All other aspects of the protcol, cardio, training, supps, and PEDs, will remain the same for now. Progress photos are attached.
