Title: building the beast !!!
Post by: Stavios on May 02, 2009, 08:59:36 PM
Ok, fuck the dieting I won't do the show, I am around 9% bf I'd guess maybe a bit less, 200lbs in the morning.

I am getting back up to 220lbs this will be the heavier I will get until I diet down again to win some shows in the light-heavies next year.

what happened is that I started out at 18% bf so I am kind of stocked and I won't be able to get down to how I would like to look.

next time around I'll start dieting at 10% bf and I will be skinless  8)


So the cycle starting will be

1g enanthate a week
5 IU of HGH a day

maybe insulin but I am not sure yet because I don't want to get fat.
if anyone have a protocol that wouldn't make me fat and that would actually lead to more muscle, speak on this

this will be for this month, I should have some good gain after that I'll up the dosage.
I don't need to start too high as I have been dieting for 12 weeks already so I will have a good rebound

I will train 2 times per day

day 1: quads in the AM
          Chest in the PM
day 2: hams in the AM
          back in the PM
day 3: Calves, shoulders in the AM
          Arms in the PM

day 4: Rest

Repete

Oh man, how far out were you?

Were you on T3? If not, maybe a touch of T3 for a month. Then use insulin as many days a week as you can without putting on too much fat. 2-3 times a day.

Just throwing out an idea.

If you're taking anabolics and have a solid diet, you shouldn't gain fat when taking slin. Tinker around with it and run some T3. Even off cycle and without T3, I don't gain fat taking slin a few times a week. Just learn how to use it until you become intuitive enough to not need a BSL monitor to know when and how much to pin. Although I do recommend getting acquainted with one.

Yep.   Stavios PM me if you want help with the insulin.  Get some other guys opinions as well.

I was 4 weeks out !
but I wasn't really set on doing the show, I dieted because I needed to. BADLY !!
yeah I was already on t3 ! And every fat burner you can think of ! lol

I'll keep it for a few weeks at 50 mcg

I think I will do more of a Isocaloric diet, and use carbs only around training.
usually off-season I eat a lot of protein and carbs and no healthy fats, I think that was the problem

i don't know yet, I was thinking taking them together but Milos said that's a bad idea

Milos says to  take the hgh 1 hour before a meal of 2-3 hours before if I remember well.

But like Van Bilderass say I am not really sure it makes a difference as it take times to absorb the hgh

Unless you really plan on going pro, do you really want to fool around with insulin? Besides the role it seems to be playing in the horrible, big gutted abominations we see today, consider the possibility that continued insulin use could (theoretically) cause your body to possibly produce less of it's own. Obviously, bodybuilders will argue that won't happen, but I am friends with an endocrinologist who believes that chronic insulin use could downgrade various insulin secreting cells in the pancreas and cause ireegularities in the alpha and gamma cells as well. If one did develop diabetes as a result, the complications of possible blindness, amputations wouldn't be worth it just so you could have "bigger" muscles.

stavios insulin should make you fat.

eat things like white rice, white bread, non fat milk, egg whites, whey isolate....

keep it ZERO FAT


yeah but you don't think I need the essential fats in the off-season ?

after all fats are needed for the reconstruction of the membrane no ?

honnestly I don't think insulin is that bad, in fact if it allows me to have better gains with less AAS I think it's healthier
Title: Re: building the beast !!!
Post by: Stavios on May 03, 2009, 01:59:35 PM
some fats are necessary...

but nto when insulin is active.. keep fats absolutely zero when youve got insulin going

the rest of the day... you dont have to have any more fats than what is contained in the meat you eat... so as long as every meal has some kind of dead animal muscle... then you are eatign enough fat

I will build my diet tonight and I'll post it so you can tell me what you think

I will try to keep it around 3500 calories for the start

You must know the correct way to use insulin to 'safely' get its 'benefits.'  If you don't know exactly what you are doing - don't try it.  

I only workout and use Humalog four days per week (always preworkout; never during the rest of the day). It's only active in my body for approximatley 4 hours.  So, I'm not very concerned about my pancreas, which still gets plenty of work the rest of the day and week.  For example, one day a week is a pretty heavy carb up ~ 750 carbs ~ and I don't use insulin at all that day and have zero issues.

The first time I used Humalog, pharma GH, & T3 together with 600 mg of Test EW, 300 mg of Deca EW, and 50mg Stanozolol ED, I gained 20 lbs over the course of a few of months. My diet was perfect at about 4000 calories per day (425P, 400C, and 85F). My bodyfat actually went down because I didn't put on any fat during the cycle.  It was an incredible combo.

You can still take EFAs.  I eat three-four tablespoons of Udo's Choice Oil throughout the day (one per meal).  But, like tbombz said, you just can't eat any fat whatsoever while the insulin is active.  It WILL be stored as fat.  

The only people who get fat using insulin are those who don't know what they are doing.

I don't think it's bad either. Aside from the risk of death if you're a moron. People seem to think that insulin and thyroid drugs are SOOO dangerous. People warn of diabetes and thyroid shut down, but if anything slamming shakes full of high GI carbs WITHOUT exogenous insulin spells danger. And about the thyroid, juicing is going to shut you down hard. Using a little bit of thyroid drugs will not do anything, because people don't go nuts on that shit like they do with the juice.

All internet fear mongering. Slin and T3 are fine if you have half a brain. Can't wait to see some new pics there, Stavios! Train hard, brother!

starting with 5 IU before the workout

I'll have 100gr carbs and 75 grams protein shake that I will take before, during and after the workout.

should be enough, I am only training quads and nothing else

I'll see how it goes with 5 IU, I'll up it to 10 IU when I am comfortable

I'd go up in smaller increments.  So, are you drinking three 100c/75p shakes?  Or, are your three shakes that much in total?

no no only 1 shake that I will sip on.

is it ok ?

3 shakes like that would be way too many calories

also I will eat about 45m-1h after the workout.
lean proteins with about 50 grams of carbs

At 5 IU you should be fine, but always keep an extra carb drink close to you.  At some point, as you increase the insulin you will need to add more carbs.  Check your PM.

ok so it went perfectly fine !!

5 IU is a small dose, didn't have no problem. no shaking no anything.

I am still working on my diet, I think my post workout meal will be 8 oz of chicken with 1 cup of rice

I am trying not to top 4000 calories a day

Post by: abc123 on May 05, 2009, 02:32:41 AM
abc, how much gh you taking?

To understand the dose you need to know the type of GH.  It's Omnitrope by Sandoz, not Generic.

Right now I'm taking 4 IU per day as a maintainance dose.  If I can't get the water retention in my face under control by drinking more water, eating less sodium and cleaning up my diet a bit, I will probably drop it to 3IU.   I've gone as high as 8 or 9 IUs per day when trying to grow.

Post by: Stavios on May 05, 2009, 05:35:52 AM
did you notice a difference in lean gains when upping the HGH ?

Keep in mind that 10iu of generic is probably equal to 6-7 iu of pharma.  At least that's what I've heard.  I have a friend that's been taking GH for YEARS and he say's growth starts at around 7iu+ with pharma quality stuff.  Based on my experinence that seems true.

Yes, I did notice significant lean gains. Once I added the GH into the mix there was a noticable increase in synergy between with the GH, Humalog, T3 and anabolics.   I had used Humalog before that, but didn't get the same gains as I did by adding in the GH.    I would expect that you get the best gains the first time around with that combo.

Also, I wasn't taking anywhere near the amount of Test that you plan to take.  I was taking 500-600mg of Test and Deca, and then switched to Prop and Tren Ace the last 8 weeks.

yeah usually off-season I do only test so the doses are pretty high.

I did 6iu slin this morning with the same amount of carbs, everything went fine.
7iu tonight, we will see how it goes

I think I can go to 10iu with the same amount of carbs
Title: Re: building the beast !!!
Post by: Stavios on May 05, 2009, 12:36:30 PM
im gonna try gh soon. idk how much im getting, anywhere between 2 and 6 kits. if i get 2 i think ill just run 5iu per dayy... but if i get more ill do 10iu per day

you should try like 3iu a day for 3 months, I don't know why but apparently after 3 months you can up the dosage and get great results.

but for the first 3 months you will have the same results with 3 or 6iu

maybe someone can explain why, but from my own experience it seems true also

You may be able to stay at the current carb level, but just keep in mind that you expend different amounts of energy each time you train, depending on intensity, etc.  So, your current carbs may work one day, but not the next day, when you have a very hard long workout. 

I gave you the 20iu guidlines for # of carbs in your pre and during shake.  To be safe, you should extrapolate that backwards to figure out how many carbs you will need at 10iu.  However, in the beginning I would shoot for a little higher than the target carb level just in case you are more sensitive than others.  Once you get to your optimum slin dose, you can start to gradually decrease the carbs to find out what your minimum requirement is....make sense?

One other thing.  You seem scared to eat too many carbs.  Keep in mind that with a superphysialogical dose of insulin you will be able to eat more carbs around your workout than ever before because the glucose is crammed into your muscles beyond what you could natually handle.  Basically you can store more glycogen than otherwise possible.  So, don't be afraid of the carbs.

whats the diet?


at 400 cals per day...even if you ate 400g protei and 100g fat.... you still could eat 375 carbs...

stavy id shoot for like 300 protein, low fat as possible (try to get under 50 grams), and do like 600g carbs.


Ok here is my exact diet !


8h am meal 1: 2 whole grain bagel
           2 scoops protein
           2 tbsp nut oil

11h30 am meal 2: SHAKE 100gr carbs, 90gr proteins

1h30 meal 3 (45 min after first workout): 8 oz chicken
                                                1 cup rice
                                                green veggies

4h30pm meal 4: shake 100gr carbs, 90gr proteins

6h30pm meal 5: same as meal 3

11h30 pm meal 6 (just before going to bed): 8 oz salmon
                                              salad
                                              2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil



I take the fats as far as the slin as I can

this is a 4060 calories diet

Once you get your slin a little higher, I'd shoot for 400p, 400c, 75f.  80% of those carbs should be in the pre, during, and post workout shakes and solid meal 45 minutes later (oatmeal or barley and egg whites).  The rest of the day should consist of lean protein, low gycemic carbs (beans for example), very fibrous veggies and tablespoon of EFAs.

how can you spend thousands and thousands on gear and train all day?

also, how much do you spend per year on roids?  40 grand?



WHAT ???

are you kidding me ????

1g test a week = 30$
insulin = 30$ for a 10ml bottle that lasts forever

yeah I am rich  :-\

and I don't train all day, those are short training sessions

1 in my lunch, 1 after work

stav doesnt use alot of gear, and maybe spends 2-300 a month on gh (maybe more) 1000g test per wk isnt expensive at all and slin, that shit will last ages! for the guys who spend tons of money on gear, sorry to hearyour wasting your money lol

Meal one is not a good choice for carbs, change to oatmeal. Your meals are too far apart with too much protein and carbs. Your bedtime meal is a not good for lasting protien throughout the night, Casin is best.  I personally would space out 8 meals about every two hours with 50g of protien, giving your 400g. Too many protien drinks and not enough solid foods, either.

can you explain your points  ?

1- why would oatmeal be better than whole grain bagel ?
because of the GI ? I think it doesn't do much of a difference myself, I feel GI in overrated

2- Why are my meals too far apart ? Layne Norton posted a study, I will have to find the link, that it changes absolutely nothing to eat every 2 hours or every 4-6 hours. In fact I think his athletes eat every 4 hours in the off-season

3- I agree with the too much protein drinks but I just can eat any protein in the morning it makes me want to puke. I don't think it makes that much of a difference where the protein comes from


I would like to hear your reasoning

thanks for giving your opinion !
Title: Re: building the beast !!!
Post by: Stavios on May 06, 2009, 11:11:59 AM
thanks Tbombz, I am still open about hearing his opinion on those points !

update: weight is back down to 202.4 lbs this morning (I go as high as 214 yesterday because of the water rentention from switching from keto to high carbs)

My traps, arms and legs blew the fuck up those past 2 days !

I actually look like a bodybuilder right now instead of a beach model.

I am shooting for a 1 lb gain a week, at this pace I shouldn't gain too much fat I think !

I should look pretty big by september
Title: Re: building the beast !!!
Post by: muscle19 on May 06, 2009, 04:01:19 PM
thats great news stav!!!! keep up the great work!!

i agree on some of those points, i do use alot more shakes than some would recommend, again i dont think it matters where the protein comes from, i dont think ill be bigger and better with all chicken in my diet than half chcicken half shakes, i could be wrong but i havent noticed a difference, plus calories are calories!
Title: Re: building the beast !!!
Post by: ShreddedKing on May 06, 2009, 04:53:04 PM

Ok here is my exact diet !


8h am meal 1: 2 whole grain bagel
           2 scoops protein
           2 tbsp nut oil

11h30 am meal 2: SHAKE 100gr carbs, 90gr proteins

1h30 meal 3 (45 min after first workout): 8 oz chicken
                                                1 cup rice
                                                green veggies

4h30pm meal 4: shake 100gr carbs, 90gr proteins

6h30pm meal 5: same as meal 3

11h30 pm meal 6 (just before going to bed): 8 oz salmon
                                              salad
                                              2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil



I take the fats as far as the slin as I can

this is a 4060 calories diet
Diet looks good bro, id prolly agree with tdizzle and lower the protein in those shakes, 90grams is probably overkill.

Other than that i wouldnt change anything, i like the 3 hours between meals, and ur not eating a ton of food, which is important. U only need so much food to grow, after u get so much, it usually just makes ppl fat ( especially if you've had a problem with that already ).

good luck bro.
Title: Re: building the beast !!!
Post by: muscle19 on May 06, 2009, 05:10:43 PM
remember the 90g shakes for stav is preworkout, during, and pwo so really its taking during a 1-11/2 time spand so really looking it at that way, its not alot

TheWorm, I spend a lot on that cycle (primo and anavar) because I was experimenting.
yes it was expensive and no I wouldn't do cycles like that the whole year

Yeah, Stavios, current pics would be great.  I was really surprised that you are up to 15% bf.  Are you sure you are that high?

I've seen you in contest shape before, but I can't remember where it was posted.  So, contest pics would be great too. 

Also, worm, I spend quite a bit on gear because it's as expensive as hell at my HRT clinic. Luckily, it's all covered since I'm hypogonadal.  Even my GH at 4iu/day seven days per week    ;)

But, I still pay for some of it out of my pocket even though I don't have too because I don't want to send too much in AAS charges through my insurance.  I try to keep my submissions reasonable so I don't raise any red flags.  The last thing I want is for them to stop paying for my US Pharma GH.   ;D

Title: Re: building the beast !!!
Post by: Stavios on May 07, 2009, 05:43:32 AM
I am not 15% lol !
I was 18% febuary one, absolutely horrible shape.

now I am about 10% or so if I had to guess


in this pic from last year I'd guess I was about 8%bf


I just took a few pics with my cell but I don't know how to put em in the computer, I'll check it out later today

Post by: Stavios on May 07, 2009, 08:18:55 AM
You look very good in that picture, I seen you before. 18%? Keep you BF between 10-12% in the offseason.



yeah I fucked up !  ;D

actually, had I known I was even 14% I would have cut the food a bit !
but I didn't get my bodyfat tested at all for a few months so I got quite a shock  ;D

I didn't look that fat even at 18%, I have long limbs and everything so all that fat didn't look that bad, I just looked SUPER smooth

I think for people who competes, it should be an off-season condition.
thats why I will try to not get much fatter than this, ever again

from those pics, I would need to drop at least 15 lbs to be in competition shape

Be careful.  Go up in 2iu increments from here.  And, please have extra carbs around in case you get light headed, shaky and start sweating from low bloodsugar.  Keep in mind that when you are hypo you don't necessarily think clearly.

so far man, you have been a horrible moderator.  you moderate shit, and attack people.  you put too much of your opinion in and your advice on gear has not been very impressive at all...  I think maybe you are division, another prick, and just changed your name cause people outed you.

I experimented with it post workout also before and I tought it sucked ass.
the pumps were not better, didn't feel it did shit for the recovery etc... exept getting fatter it didn't do shit.

now Pre-workout, that's another story !
Try drinking a fuck load of water also bro, it gets the pump and vascularity even crazier
Title: Re: building the beast !!!
Post by: muscle19 on May 10, 2009, 06:22:56 PM
see thats what i have been noticing, the crazy pumps!!! i have carbs in me just in case during workout so i sip carbs throughout, i feel that is the key to the pumps so they have been very well plus with the addition of gh for me, i have bever used this combo, i think have been great so far!!!

stav anymore updates? anymore weight gain?
