Great start mate, what a fantastic position you are in to start this growth phase, really looking forward to seeing where you take this.

Great start mate, what a fantastic position you are in to start this growth phase, really looking forward to seeing where you take this.

Thanks bro not posting any traning log or anything like that in here before Monday. As over the next few days I'll be posting blood work, cals all the extra details for the log

 

[Demon_throne]

Please note that these pre cycle bloods were done post being sick (documented in my last log)



All elevated levels are 100% explained by
• Gastro

• Antibiotics

• Systemic inflammation

• Mild chest infection due to attempting to quitting vapes

 

[Unitedau]

Going to be an awesome journey to follow. Looking forward to it

power top start bro
Big legend

Thanks bro. Been working on it in the background for the last few weeks

 

[Demon_throne]

So I've allready had a few people reachout and express concern about the things I have listed in the original post.



No not everything is being implemented at once. I'll list the prime example that has been brought up.



I am not stacking 2 orals at once. The idea is Oxandrolone at the start of the cycle considering I am using long esters (Nandrolone Decanoate and Boldenone Undecylenate). The utilisation of Turinabol will (if it's used) be late into the cycle as a a booster probably will line up with a push in food and possibly a Strength-focused mesocycle

Nothing wrong with two orals as long as both are at a lowish to moderate dose and a good ratio of anabolic vs androgen so you get the benefits of both.

Theirs no concerns on liver, plenty of living proof out there and I have witnessed extreme oral use even as long as one year, liver enzymes still in a range considered with mild anabolics use and recovered perfectly fine. Takes a lot to fail the liver and an organ that heals itself.

Use a liver product such as the bulk nutrients blend and you will be perfectly fine if you take that path.

There's going to be probably about 8 weeks separating the use of each oral if my math is correct to capitalise on the peek of the injectables

 

[Demon_throne]

Reference shots for start of growth

 

[the_alcatraz]

Thanks bro. Been working on it in the background for the last few weeks

legend look

 

[Unitedau]

Brilliant shots. Thanks for sharing.

 

[Demon_throne]

Brilliant shots. Thanks for sharing.

This + a year of growth I feel like I'll do well next year

First little break down for the cycle.

Injectable peptides/hormones.

- HGH
6iu daily for now with the possibility of the plan being to increase to 9iu and doing split dosages, 3iu fasted and 6pre bed.
- MOTS-c
Currently at 2mg fasted daily, with he intention of increasing it to 4mg daily once ss31 is in the picture
- NAD+
Currently dosed at 50mg daily with planned escalation as the cycle progresses to 75mg then to 100mg
- Retatrutide
Keeping it low currently at 3mg weekly
- SS-31
Not currently in the cycle but the plan is to bring it into the cycle towards the end and continue it through the following health phase
- DSIP
Just being used as an experiment currently at 300mcg daily so far I've not noticed anything so I'm not sure if it will be something I continue utilising.

 

[Demon_throne]

Stack Break down part 2

Oral / Mitochondrial Stack:



- Methylene Blue -
Dosage 20mg daily

• Helps offset:

• High metabolic demand from T3/T4

• Increased oxidative stress from AAS + GH

• Can improve:

• Workout output

• Mental clarity



- SLU-PP-332
Dosage 100mg daily split 30mg/40mg/30mg

• Increases:

• Mitochondrial biogenesis

• Fat oxidation

• Energy expenditure



- 5-Amino-1MQ
Dosage 100mg daily split 50mg/50mg

• Helps with:

• Nutrient partitioning

• Slight reduction in fat storage

• Works nicely alongside:

• GH

• Metformin

• Your high-carb setup



How they work together

• Methylene Blue → efficiency

• SLU-PP-332 → expenditure

• 5-Amino-1MQ → partitioning

 

[Demon_throne]

Please note stack break downs are comprised through conversations between myself, my coach, sponsors and other members of the community so if any wording ever seems off it's just been a slight oversight on my behalf

Loving the detail brother, heap of good information

Loving this! Keen to keep following

 

[Demon_throne]

2nd to last breakdown update

Support / Ancillaries:



The below items cover and support the following-

1. Health protection (BP, glucose, lipids)

2. Side effect control (estrogen, prolactin)

3. Nutrient partitioning / performance



- Insulin -

NovaRapid (possibly lantus in the future)

• Drives glucose + amino acids into muscle

• Highly anabolic when paired with carbs + GH



In my stack-

• Works synergistically with GH and androgens

• Amplifies growth, fullness, glycogen storage



- Metformin -

• Improves insulin sensitivity

• Reduces liver glucose output

• Blunts blood sugar spikes



In my stack-

• Offsets:

• GH-induced insulin resistance

• High carb intake

• Insulin usage risk



- Telmisartan -

• Blood pressure control (ARB)

• Improves insulin sensitivity



In my stack-

• Very valuable because:

• EQ + GH → can increase BP

• Androgens → strain cardiovascular system



- Cialis -

• Vasodilation → better blood flow

• Pumps, endurance, slight BP reduction



In my stack-

• Enhances:

• Training performance

• Nutrient delivery

• Pump (especially with insulin + carbs)



- Arimidex -

• Lowers estrogen (E2)



It's more a as needed thing but it's better to have and not need then need and not have



- Cabergoline -

• Lowers prolactin



It's more a as needed thing but it's better to have and not need then need and not have



- T3 / T4 -

• Increase metabolic rate

• Increase fat burning

• Increase nutrient turnover



In my stack-

• Increase calorie burn

• Increase nutrient demand

• Improve partitioning if I'm fed properly

 

[Demon_throne]

The final pre start update!!!
The spicy stuff
- Testosterone Enanthate

What it brings:

• Primary anabolic + androgenic driver

• Sets your baseline hormone environment

• Increases:

• Protein synthesis

• Nitrogen retention

• IGF-1 signaling

• Converts to estrogen → important for growth, strength, and joint health



In the stack:

• Acts as the foundation everything else builds on

Supports:

• Strength (neural + muscular)

• Fullness via glycogen + intracellular water

• Keeps libido, mood, and overall function stable
----------------------


- Nandrolone Decanoate

What it brings:

• Highly anabolic, low androgenic

• Strong collagen synthesis + joint support

• Increases intramuscular water retention → fuller, rounder look

• Boosts red blood cell production



In the stack:

Synergises with test to:

• Improve training output longevity

• Reduce joint stress under heavy loads

• Adds dense tissue accrual, but with a slightly “softer” look


----------------------
- Boldenone Undecylenate

What it brings:

• Mild anabolic, very low estrogen conversion

• Major increase in RBC (oxygen delivery)

• Strong appetite stimulation

• Enhances vascularity and “dry” look



In my stack:

Balances Deca by:

• Adding hardness + vascularity

• Reducing overly “watery” appearance

• Improves work capacity + endurance

----------------------
--------------------------------

- Oxandrolone

What it brings:

• Dry, cosmetic hardening

• Significant strength increase without weight gain

• Improves ATP turnover → performance boost



In the stack:

• Early phase tool

• Enhances performance + neural output

• Helps keep look tight while calories rise

• Offsets Deca softness slightly


----------------------
- Turinabol

What it brings:

• Lean, steady tissue accrual

• Less dramatic than Anavar, but more actual mass contribution

• Minimal water retention



In my stack:

• Planned for the Later phase of cycle

• Continues clean growth without spillover

• Maintains performance + density

• Works well when bodyweight is already climbing



With this stack I feel we have essentially built a a cycle that creates an environment that will produce:


Big, full, round muscle

With vascularity + performance

Anchored by strength + hormonal balance

Max growth without excessive fat spill

High training output + recovery

Balanced look (full + relatively dry)
