My progress so far:

week 2: +18 pounds (263)
week 3: +23 pounds (268)
week 4: +26 pounds (271)
week 5: +30 pounds (275)
week 6: +34 pounds (279)

GAINS: I've continued to increase the poundage on all movements. I keep waiting to hit a sticking point, but I've been fortunate enough to push beyond boundaries with every workout. My most impressive gain, as I discussed in a post last week, is my bench press. My flat bench has increased from a pre-cycle max of 315 for 3 reps to 2 reps at 405. I train my chest tonight, and I feel great today.....I will push beyond 405.

My physique is developing very well, I'm adding quality size all over. Family and friends comment every day. I wear a suit to work, but Fridays are business casual. I wore a polo to work on Friday and had 5 co-workers comment on my size.

SIDE EFFECTS: I've finally won the war on acne. The combination of daily indoor tanning, Neutrogena Body Clear body wash, frequent showers, and rubbing alcohol wipe downs really did work for me.

I started experiencing some discomfort from my kidneys a few days ago. I felt tightness in the lower back, cramping around the ribs in my back, and spasms from the kidneys. I increased my water intake drastically and I'm feeling much better. E2 suggested a gallon of cranberry juice per day as well, and I'll start that today.....thanks E2!!

4 weeks of growing to go........I'll keep you all posted.

All sets are "working" sets.....I do warm-up sets prior to any hard sets. On the last excercise and set for each muscle I go to complete failure. I will literally not be able to do another rep.....even with assistance. I have also been working in forced negatives on my heavy days.....that's stimulated muscle fiber I never knew existed.

My post cycle goal is to maintain my gains (my goal is 80% retention after water loss), lose the water retention (10-15 pounds), and strip away excess body fat (22 pounds). I'm excited to see the end result.....it should leave me around 230-235 @ 6 - 7%.
