WEEK 4 UPDATE:
First, the Positive:
The main thing I noticed from this short cycle is that my muscles are the hardest they have ever been.
I'm contributing that to the DTA, since I have read of others having the same experience.
Also, Vascularity has been insane. I really feel that there is a serious synergy between the IGF and DTA.
I have been taking IGF for almost a year now (off and on) with many different compounds, so I'm pretty sure that's what it is.
Now, the bad news:
I have decided I'm not taking anything except for MC IGF until this lump in my chest is gone.
That is my top priority now.
I know it sucks, but I want to be safe.
I still don't have a gym membership or any income right now, so I guess it's a good time to do this.
If you don't know, I was on Sabbatical from church, then I decided not to work last semester.
That's why I've been without work for so long, but it's time to get back in the saddle.
I've been distributing my resume pretty aggressively, so it's only a matter of time before something happens.
My weight is back to 170 (lost 5lbs, but it was probably glycogen).
I didn't really have time to make any real gains, but I'm not even worried about it for now.
I look so much better than I did when I began all of this 2.5 years ago, and I'm happy with how I look for now.
Mainly, I just wanted to feel confident with my shirt off, and I do, so that's a big deal to me.
I took measurements, and I have lost just a little here and there, but I'll get it back.
Anyway, I have a really nice stash, so I'll definitely get back "on" once this is taken care of.
The lump no is no longer sensitive, so no pain, but I want the lump GONE (it can't be good to have that in my chest).
I'm currently running 40mg/ED NOLVA, and 2.5mg/ED LETRO.
It is definitely a little smaller, and with the pain subsiding, everything seems to working great!
I just know it will work even better if I'm not "on" anything.
I'm also adding Clomid for a complete PCT.
I've actually never ran a true PCT before, because I started out on TRT, but I want to start from scratch.
Hopefully I will find work soon, and be able to get my levels checked. If I get where I feel too bad, I'll take a little Test.
I'm really not concerned with losing much of my gains, because I have achieved my results over such a long period of time, I don't think it's gonna be an issue.
I'm sure the IGF will help though...
Once this is taken care of, I'm pretty sure that I will be resuming the same cycle (minus Test Cyp), because I was really happy with how it was going.
I'm going to stick with only short esters from now on though, which means I have a ton of TEST that I don't freaking need.
The only regret I have is, I only have 12 10mg SD caps left. I wish I had more, but I have other stuff.
I may run the SD alongside some EPI or ELITE TREN next time. It can't hurt.
I also have plenty of Dbol, but I'd rather start with non-aromatizing compounds to make sure it doesn't come right back.
Anyway, I really hate to end this log this way, but it is what it is.
It may take a while, but I will update you guys on my progress.
Thanks to those who contributed!
