Offseason bulking logbook - Road to 110kg

[Rick123]

Hello guys! This week i have started a new blast with MTS. So I thought it would be nice to share my progress and reviewing the compounds of MTS i’m using

Current Stats:
26 years
1,85 m
105kg
Bodyfat 10%

In the last few years i’ve participated a few bb competitions. The last 2 i won my class (classic bb). But to be competitive at a higher level i need to up my game.

I am planning on doing my next show in the end of next year I will therefore use the coming period to put on as much mass as possible. Also because there is still no certainty with the entire corona epidemic.

Specific MTS compounds:
Big N full
EQUIMAX
Anadrol

WEEK 1-6: Test mix 800mg EW
WEEK 1-6: EQ 900mg EW
WEEK 1-6: MK677 (25mg ED)
WEEK 1-6: Anadrol (50mg PWO)

WEEK 7-12: not sure yet
WEEK 7-12: not sure
WEEK 7-12: not sure yet

Maybe i’ll also add in some HGH during the blast, but first i’ll start with this.

Food intake

Starting the blast with the following macro’s (this will change during the blast as i progress):
(Training days) 4400 kcals
300gr protein, 600gr carbs, 85gr fats

(Rest days) 3500 kcals
300gr protein, 375gr carbs, 85gr fats

What i can already say about MTS is that the service with regard to mailing and sending the gear is really well arranged! Even with the busy holidays and black friday everything arrived very fast and without any problems.

Also professionally packed, which means that the chance that customs will intercept the parcel is extremely small.

I’ll be logging my training, food, cycle and shape updates.

If anyone has any questions or suggestions please let me know

Will be posting shape pics and gear pics as soon as i’m behind a computer/Laptop. I can’t upload pics with my phone very strange.

I’m currently doing a trainings program from the well known bodybuilder and coach John Meadows. I really like his training philosophy and his training program worked wonders for me in the past. What type of training style or program do you guys are following? Maybe I would like to try something new in the future so i’m open for suggestions!

Some very bad news... another lockdown... gyms are closing tomorrow until 17 January... I’m really sad and disappointed, just started my blast and than this happens... one of my friends have a small home gym where i can train. But i don’t know how many times per week. Tomorrow i’ll know more and then i will make a plan. But what it looks like know is back to cruising and try to maintain as much muscle as possible. Will update asap of i know more!

Had a very nice leg day. I clearly notice my knee is recovering from the jumpers knee i had for a couple months. I can put in a lot more power again and exercises such as squats / lunges are almost painless again. Fysio also saw it on the ultrasound last Monday, we’re not there yet but there is progress!

Today again squats without a belt, last week sets of 8, this week sets of 10, also on the belt squats a bit more reps. Simple way to make progress.

The coming days will be home workouts with minimal equipment and from next Tuesday I can go back to a small gym of my physiotherapist.

The stupid thing is that you can still do “exercises” while being treated by a physiotherapist, but the gyms are closed. So my physiotherapist helped me out and let me train at his gym under the guise of rehabilitating lol.

I hope this lockdown will be over at 19 of January but currently it’s doesn’t look good so there is chance they will extend it. Really disappointed, just started my blast end then this happens. Plan for now is to just keep cruising on 250mg test e per week until the lockdown is over.
