I recently finished my 10 week cycle of sust/reforvit/eq and wanted to share my results. For those who haven't been following along, here is what my cycle looked like: CYCLE SUMMARY (10 weeks) reforvit (weeks 1-5) 50,75,75,50,25mg/daily Clomid (50mg) every other day throughout the cycle. This cycle was scheduled to run for 10 weeks, but I finished up a few days early. My body was telling me that it was time to recover WEIGHT GAIN.....FINAL REPORT CARD: START: 245 pounds POST CYCLE My post cycle plan is to retain as much of these gains as I possibly can. I'm eating very clean....at least 2 grams of protein per pound of body weight, and I've cut my fat intake to 15% of calories. At the end of this month I'll start cutting so I can find my abs again. For cutting I'll use winny, primo, clen, and cytomel. After shedding the water retention and fat, I'm targeting a lean 235 - 240 (that's assuming I can retain roughly 80% of my gains). I have a full schedule for next year......I'll be competing in the following shows: Gold's Classic San Diego BB I have enough time left to hit one more hard bulking cycle, then it will be time to start contest prep (just after the first of the year). I'll keep you posted on how things go post cycle.......and you'll be seeing these posts again when I start cutting in a few weeks. The weight will be going the other direction though IP: Logged |

Those results are great bro, and to think, we were all argueing about that cycle when you started it way back. We all thought it would be too much, and look at you now bro. Great Work, and good luck on stage. ------------------ Work With Your Back And With Your Brain IP: Logged |

Matty.....I pre-cycle I was 245 at 15% body fat. That means I had a lean mass of 208 pounds. Currently I'm at 296 carrying 14.8% body fat (44 pounds!!) and about 10 pounds of water. That leaves me with a lean mass of 242. Assuming I can maintain 80% of my muscle gains from this cycle (which is attainable) I'm targeting 240, but much leaner. 240 at 6% is a far cry from 240 at 15% IP: Logged |

SSMAN That is absolutly brilliant! You must be very happy with the gains you have made! I hope to achieve very similiar results although that is gonna take some beating! I have never been 300 pound but for me it is the objective! If i dont achieve it with this cycle of eq,di,and prop then ill achieve it with my next cycle already planned out with growth! Once again amazing results! All the best. c.t ------------------ IP: Logged |

It really doesn't get any better than that. Outstanding work. My cycle ends this week and I'll post my results Monday. They are not quite as dramatic, but I am happy. I'm already planning my next cycle, which I'll do in a few months. I'm sure you'll retain a great deal of your gains as you obviously know what your doing. IP: Logged |

You might want to think about some HCG. Also, you will want to take 10mg/day of Nolva for 2 weeks, or 20mg/day for 7 days and 10mg/day for the next 7 days. ------------------ http://2thick.elitefitness.com IP: Logged |

SSMAN, I assume you've taken the dbol tabs in the past. How do you compare them to the Reforvit. I've done the Naposims and Thais, but never the Reforvit. I'm considering it in my next cycle, along with lots of test and EQ. IP: Logged |

Thickdog....I have taken dbol tabs and they're very comparable to reforvit. I found reforvit to be slightly under-dosed, but when I jumped to 3 cc's per day I really felt the difference. It was more difficult to take my doses during the day, where dbol can be carried around and taken anywhere....but overall I'm very impressed with reforvit (especially for the cost). Evissam.....I had regular visits with my doctor and was lucky enough to not experience any serious adverse effects. I took Milk Thistle and Primrose oil for my liver and cranberry extract for my kidneys. I drank 2 gallons of water daily, and maintained good overall health. IP: Logged |

Kahn.....I had many side effects to deal with during my cycle. I really feel I handled each one very well. blood pressure....early in my cycle my BP shot up to 211/101. After a visit with my doctor, we decided to try a mild herbal diuretic to lose some water retention. I got a lot of negative feedback on this board for not going to perscribed medication....but a week later my BP was 155/83 doing things my way. acne.....this was a contstant battle. Once again the masses were saying perscribed medication. I went with indoor tanning 20 minutes daily, Nuetrogena body clear body wash, 2-3 showers daily, and frequent wipe downs with rubbing alcohol. That combo worked wonders for me....only a blemish here and there. kidney pain.....toward the end of my cycle I started experiencing some kidney pain. I started drinking pure cranberry juice, increased my water intake, and started taking cranberry extract......problem solved. I constantly made adjustments to my training, cycle, and diet to reach my goal.....I couldn't be more pleased with the results IP: Logged |

Well I for one will miss the updates, LOL!!! Great job Bro, most would be happy with 1/2 the gains you got. I'm starting my thrid week and I'm not getting much bigger yet, only gained 8 pounds so far on the scale and have actually lost body fat so I'm obviously not eating enough. Have only been on the D-bol for 7 days though, the Omnadren is just starting to kick in!!!! I'll keep you guys posted starting next week. IP: Logged |

Ssman, Bro your cycle, udates, diet,dedication and results are the best i've seen since I started coming around this board in february of this year. Your cycle has been an inspriration to me and instead of "I wanna be like Mike" its more like "I wanna be like Ssman".My hat's off to you. Good luck with the cutting and contests.

hey ssman got a couple of q's for you. first im taking off competing this year to put on more size,(currently 5'11" 206 with 61/2 bf) im gonna do a nat'l qualifier next march. i am about to start my first bulk cycle this year and plan to start another about mid nov. how long will you wait to start your comp cycle after your next bulk cycle? will you go directly into it? and will you be able to keep most of your size w/o a high androgen for 5-6 weeks mixed in your comp cycle?
