My first "advice requested" post.
History:
On and off serious lifting since I was about 17 (25 now)
Started at a b/w of about 125lbs when I graduated HS
Worked up to 160 naturally then did a few cycles at circa 19
Def did it too early, access to PCT was limited, so my PCT was clomid only and that shit always fucked with my emotions, especially when its the only thing you are taking
Got up to 198 but was always bloated since I never had access to AI
Currently:
Sitting at 188, 5'7"
Took almost two full years off from lifting, lived with my g/f she always gave me shit about spending time in the gym so i stopped (only one of the factors that made me realize she was not a good g/f!)
Got back into it around June 22
I have a script for HRT with a dose of up to 500mg of test cyp per week. My test levels came back well below normal so I pursued the HRT (around 380 I believe). So I have been using the cyp as a light cycle, have done 2, 8 weekers so far.
Just started the Madcow Intermediate 5x5 routine last week (for those that dont know it relates to the dual factor theory, periodization and linear progression--all great stuff to learn about BTW)
Lifts:
Squat 5RM- 270
Bench 5RM- 255
Pendlay Row 5RM- 204
Deadlift 5RM- 343
Incline Bench 5RM- 217
All numbers done 3 weeks into PCT
GOAL:
Continue losing fat while adding muscle (everyone's goal right?! lol) I would prefer to err towards adding mass rather than cutting up very quickly.
Looking for input/critique regarding diet mainly, but all input welcome. Right now taking in circa 2200 calories on off days, 3000 on workout days, with saturday as a cheat day. Take a look at my fitday screen caps below, for exact diet.
Supplementation:
AIFM (havent used yet but have it)
Glucorell
NO stimulator (superpump 250 currently, soon to be RED when its avail)
Multivitamin
Glucosamine
Propecia

Input on suspected b/f in the before/after pic would be great too. They were taken 4 months apart, June 22 and October 29 of this year
As an aside... I practice what I preach.. when people ask for advice they should give some damn info!
