Had an idea (Halo)
- Thread starter rüd
- Start date
I will compile my complete cycle, nutrition etc.. and more specifically the next 48 hours. I plan on doing this twice this week with a cool off in between so I'll have refinements I'm sure with bio feedback by end of week with results going back into full cycle.
24 hour, 48 hour notes to come shortly.

Here’s a clean, quick explanation of why these compounds work together in my neural cementing protocol:
---
This stack isn’t about size—it’s about precision.
Halotestin lights up the nervous system so you can lock in movement patterns with intensity.
Anavar and Tbol give clean strength, endurance, and recovery without bloating or mental fog.
Proviron boosts mental sharpness and stabilizes hormones so the system stays focused and dry.
L-Tyrosine and B6 enhance dopamine and neural firing so your brain stays locked in.
Beta-Alanine and Pomegranate support muscle endurance and blood flow to keep everything running smooth.
Together, they form a system:
Neural ignition (Halo)
Clean fuel and reinforcement (Var, Tbol)
Stability and focus (Proviron, Tyrosine, B6)
Execution endurance (Beta-Alanine, Pom)
Im not just lifting—im teaching your body how to fire better, and this stack makes sure every part of that process is covered.
Why Music?
Im using music as a neural anchor—a way to link movement with emotion and rhythm so my brain remembers it better.
Classical or slow ambient music in the morning calms the nervous system and helps lock in control.
Cinematic, foreign, or primal music during power sets adds intensity and emotion, helping you perform explosive movements with maximum intent.
By using different genres for different training phases, your brain learns to associate specific sounds with specific movement states.
Simple version: Music becomes a cue system for your nervous system to shift into the right mode.

Why Trigger Words?
Words like “Locked,” “Loaded,” “Pull the Trigger,” “Hold,” “Drive” are used during reps to reinforce timing and focus.
Each word is tied to a specific part of the movement:
“Locked” = brace your core, root your stance
“Loaded” = build tension
“Pull the Trigger” = unleash power or rotation
“Hold” = isometric control, resist
“Drive” = push through the finish
I say or hear these words at key moments to train your brain to fire the right muscles at the right time.
Simple version: The words become verbal switches—you’re programming your body like software.
---
Music + words = mental map for movement.
Im building a system your body can follow even under fatigue, chaos, or competition stress.
I'm rewiring the fuckin system to do what I used to do more efficiently. Not stronger over night.. using the strength I have in a more efficient manner.
If no one has heard of neural override you should look it up. Literally overnight my brain hit a switch which changed the way I move.. from lifts to how I put my shoes on. I'm sharpening a newly awakened part of my system that wasn't available to me before. But this method and protocol should be universal I'm just highly susceptible to big change at the moment..
Deads 405 doubles the start of this cycle.. 240 bench... not sharing squat atm because it's a story (198 bw). But the way things have been moving I'm looking forward to exit strength numbers.
Are we looking at merely over thinking how to have a better workout or world class lifting?
Let's see pics of the results

No. Just less fat and more visible muscle. More muscle, bigger muscle and a LITTLE fat + good nerve signals is stronger. There's a LOT of science behind doing a high percentage of your 1RM again and again reinforces the signal.
Halo, without over thinking the science (as well as a few other PEDs) CAN enable a (for some) more aggressive and or more alert state. Hence high, but short lived, dosing by lifters.
You do NOT need to enhance your brains ability to be focused etc. Literal repeating best practice will 'rewire' the brain.
I'll make this real simple - experiments have been done with narcotics, LSD and more and NONE made for a world class lifter
There is SOME evidence to the music aspect as well as the verbiage. The music should be media. You could watch a video or read a poem and get as strong of an effect. With music while classical uplifting might do it so would a high beats per minute dance tune. It usually comes down to heavy rock or metal.
The verbal aspect is even simpler. It's just key words. Words have zero power in and of themselves. Like none. But we GIVE them power. Using those words as triggers (whatever works for you) is no different to the ringing of a bell to make a dog think it's dinner time.
One problem we have as humans is over thinking. We can 'science da fuck' out of a very simple idea. Take the phrase above re PV: so the system stays focused and dry. Dry here doesn't mean dry. It means not distracted. If words have power use the right ones.
Others have asked for simpler explanations. Some of the best ideas are very simple and those who understand said topics see that the core concept IS simple.
Example: Halo doesn't enhance being alertness more than caffeine. And esp so at so-called micro-doses. Heck does anyone recall how silicon valley brain boxes were all micro-dosing 'shrooms' 5 years or so ago? Ditto LSD. Did that work? No. Still a thing? No

Simple approach: Who here is 100% on point? I don't mean with PEDs or meals I mean with EVERYTHING. One or two top pros have said something like 'if someone beats me it's cos they're better... but there's no way they did more'. Meaning from the time you get up after a good nights sleep, set yourself up mentally after a good shit and EVERY aspect of the day enhances training and recovery from that.
Few to none including me. But I do ENOUGH and have done so for soooo long that I've got big and strong. I'll use @pigsy as an example. Great genetics for muscle, good response to PEDs, a great home gym and lots of time doing it = muscle freak. But his days gathering grapes at the vineyard (sometimes 16+ hours) MUST hold him back a bit - even if it's just on those days.
I've talked about doing a days work, being zoned out on the train home commute and still having a kick ass workout on arriving at the gym (right next to the rail station). Why? Cos I'd done so 1000's of times and my body knew what to do. Heck, there's even an argument to be made for 'removing' the brain or thinking from training. If we did we'd ignore the pain or tiredness.

To be clear I have also argued that the mental side is as important as the physical. Even to the point of, all things being equal, it being what makes some successful.
Sports related language (and thinking) is a topic in and of itself. Think negative, positive and open.
Negative is 'I can't/I won't'
Positive is 'I can/I will'
Open is 'I might/let's just see'
What can seem negative, can also be a driver. If you got up close to me during an attempt at a PR you might hear me 'get this done you fat cunt'.
True mental triggers can vary. I've worked with athletes who happened to mention a trying time in their lives. A little side story. It might even be as simple and common a thing as wanting to make their children proud of daddy/mummy. I'll use the normal language to encourage and then pull the 'red button marked do not push except in times of danger' words out when peak effort is required. You'll note zero mention of chemicals. Var etc will NOT make this better. Life, experience and emotion will. If, as we are, hormones make a difference it's not testosterone here.
On podcasts Stevesmi and I discussed early forms of Test and mentioned stuff lifters have done as well as the various 'super soldier' type programs. In extreme examples lifters jabbed adrenaline. That can't be done often. In the case of the military they used and abused methamphetamine (British RAF pilots for example as well as German Tank crews). Neither made them better... just more awake.
