Regarding his cycle
Leading up to a show there really isnt any point using huge amounts of gear, the body is in a deficit, it cant grow unless you feed it.
I preped for a show years back and mid prep I went to see a trusted guy to give me some feedback.
He told me I wasnt taking enough, I trebled my dosage, I also upped my carbs.
In 6 weeks I gained 2lbs
Was taking all that extra really worth it?
These guys are genetic freaks that blow up on next to nothing
I knew a guy years ago that blew up like a balloon from slim to capped delts and 20lb heavier on a shot of parabolon a week.
