Looking for any and all advice that will help me achieve my goal.
I’m soon to start a Sustanon/Deca/DBol blast, the primary goal is to increase size in limbs - hams, quads, biceps and triceps in addition to increasing strength. I feel all body parts have slightly outgrown symmetry.
I follow a powerlifting/bodybuilding routine (powerbuilding), specifically 5/3/1 with BBB (Boring But Big) exclusively for my quads - on Deadlift days I do 5x10 squats @ 60% of TM (Training Max).
My goal is to add at least three inches, preferably more of lean mass to thighs and at least two inches to arms. Current measurements, thighs @ 27” and arms @ 18”. With rate of weight increase @ 1-1.5lbs per week.
I’d like to stay as close to 15% BF as possible, so prefer not to dirty bulk. 10-15% range feels the healthiest to me regarding sleep, mobility, strength gains, aesthetics, physical stamina, endurance and just overall health.
I’m 6’0 with long limbs sitting at 230-235lbs roughly between 10-12% BF.
Maintenance cals currently (carb cycle 100g on/off)
Training cals: 2,565
Non-training cals: 2,165
Starting tomorrow cals will go up
Training cals: 2,765
Non-Training cals: 2,205
Cals will go up when body weight plateaus or hunger is unimaginable, between 200-300 cals (50-75g of carbs added)
Also as an option for carb cycling I might push carbs to 1g x 2 body weight on training days and then drop it back to a maximum of 200g on non-training days. Just depends what mirror, measuring tape and scale tells me.
I will increase cals so long as I stay within 15% BF. So if I can push it to 3500-4000 cals, so be it. If cals start to spill over into fat gain, I’ll lower cals as necessary.
Training days:
Mon: Squats + accessories
Tue: Bench + accessories
Thursday: Deadlift + BBB squats + accessories
Friday: Overhead Press + accessories
3 weeks of grinding, every 4th week is a deload, so I train @ 60% of TM.
Last week’s total sets and volume for just quads (a sample of my training):
Squats
3 warm up @ 2398
3 Main @ 4543
3 Joker @ 5170
Leg press
3 sets @ 17200
Leg extension
5 sets @ 6500
Squats BBB
5 sets @ 9350
Blast layout (daily pin - I hate peaks and valleys and after switching to daily pins I felt far better, especially with sleep and energy)
(Preface)
I’m phasing Tren out of my system and phasing in Deca, Tren has been great for maintenance and lowering weight while keeping as much of my lean mass and strength gains as possible but I’d like to let my body recover from Tren and will hop back on sometime early next year.
Let’s not focus on this detail, been doing this for nearly a decade (very conservative dosages), I know my body, I get blood work done, and take good care of supplying myself with appropriate nutrition, micronutrients and hard to come by nutrients only found in certain supplements (CoQ10 and K2 / MK-7, to name a couple).
3 IU of GH EOD
Week 1-2 (2 weeks)
Deca @ 1 IU (280mg/wk)
Tren @ 2 IU (280mg/wk)
Test @ 2 IU (350mg/wk)
Week 3-4 (2 weeks)
Deca @ 2 IU (560mg/wk)
Tren @ 1 IU (140mg/wk)
Test @ 2 IU (350mg/wk)
Week 5-12 (8 weeks)
Deca @ 2 IU (560mg/wk)
Test @ 3 IU (525mg/wk) - This may stay @ 350mg max, instead of increasing.
Week 5-8 (4 weeks)
DBol @ 25mg 1 hour preworkout
Week 9-12 (4 weeks)
DBol @ 50mg 1 hour preworkout - This may stay @ 25mg max, instead of increasing.
Week 13-20 (8 weeks)
Deca @ 3 IU (840mg/wk) - This may stay @ 560mg max, instead of increasing.
Test @ 3 IU (525mg/wk) - This may stay @ 350mg max, instead of increasing.
I don’t plan to make 20 weeks a hard stop, I’m willing to push it further along without increasing dosages if I’m still increasing weight week after week. 20 weeks is a minimum. Additionally, I may dose DBol @ 4 weeks on, 4 weeks off, rinse and repeat.
With all this information, I should be able to grow a significant amount of lean mass, right?
Or is there something that seems lacking? Cals? Sets/Volume? Blast dosage?
Please critique! I need it if anything seems off.
Thank you!
