Arms Day (+Pics)
by
TheSteroidExperiment
on Thu 30 Jul 2009 11:51 BST
Quick update. Here are some pics from yesterdays arms workout.

All the pics (including Tristan and Rocky) can be seen here: http://www.thesteroidexperiment.com/blog/Photos/TrainingPics/20090729
The workout consisted of the following:
Barbell arm curl Set 1, 25 kg for 15 reps Set 2, 35 kg for 12 reps Set 3, 40 kg for 7 reps Set 4, 40 kg for 5 reps
Cable triceps pushdown Set 1, 35 kg for 8 reps Set 2, 35 kg for 8 reps Set 3, 35 kg for 9 reps
Close grip pulls ups Set 1, 0 kg for 6 reps (these morning workouts really don't agree with me!)
Dips Set 1, 0kg for 12 reps Set 2, 0 kg for 10 reps
Hammer curl Set 1, 22 kg for 10 reps Set 2, 24 kg for 10 reps Set 3, 28 kg for 7 reps
Noticed that a machine at another gym must in lbs rather than kg's so will have to amend my logs.

Just checking the survey to the right - wasn't expecting 42% to have used steroids ;-) Intriguing, might have to do a bit of research to see what the stats are for the general public for steroid usage ...

Weight Chart for Past 30-Days on Testosterone Enanthate (up to week 6)
by
TheSteroidExperiment
on Sun 19 Jul 2009 00:27 BST
Quick post of my weight to change for the past 30-days on Testosterone Enanthate. It should be noted that I'm also running 0.5mg of Arimedex every other day, so that should be keeping water retention down.

I need to retrospectively input data from before I was using MyNetDiary to track weight so you can see weight change even before the cycle (where it came down to reduce body fat).

Back on Track with The Steroid Experiment
by
TheSteroidExperiment
on Sat 18 Jul 2009 23:56 BST
Pleased to report that as of last week I'm back on track with the experiment. The previous week I was ill for a number of days, which pretty much rendered that week useless in terms of training, and I was also away with the family for the weekend. This was pretty annoying considering from what I've read, this is when things start to kick in.
However, happy to report that last week went well, and the weight is obviously starting to go up now (will be posting soem graphs soon)! According to the scales (which we can take with a pinch of salt) bodyfat is up aproximately 1% although it does tend to fluxuate.
All food is continuing to get logged on MyNetDiary and training on iFitness (so I can run reports of that as well).

Illness Hinders Progress on Steroid Cycle
by
TheSteroidExperiment
on Thu 09 Jul 2009 14:37 BST
Just entered into week 4 yesterday, which is the point I would expect to start seeing some results visually (the weights have been going up a bit). However, I've caught a bug (upset stomach and aching) for the last few days (left work early Tuesday, day in bed yesterday, and today). My calorie intake for the last few days has also dropped as I can't stomach any food. Obviously I haven't trained either since Monday. Been trying to just sleep it off and allow my body to repair itself. Fingers crossed I'll soon be up and running again soon (no longer aching at least) and can crack on with the training again.

Had this delivery today to help increase my daily calorie intake.

So I'll now be using Maximuscle Progain instead of Promax to get more calories as well as adding egg whites and also MyProtein Meal "Replacements".

Nipple Watch!
by
TheSteroidExperiment
on Sun 28 Jun 2009 18:58 BST
I am officially putting myself under "nipple watch". Being ever so slightly paranoid, as mentioned previously, I _think_ my nipples may have changed shape a little, although maybe I just haven't really been paying as much attention to them. they also seem _slightly_ sensitive and tingle slightly. Therefore, I've actually taken a photo of them (a little odd it may seem!) but the reason is to keep an eye if there are any changes. Being an honest account of my steroid usage, it would only be fair to post this up here.

To me they look puffer than normal, so will start the Arimidex at 0.5mg (half a tablet) every other day. Not cheap this stuff though!

Back at the Gym
by
TheSteroidExperiment
on Wed 25 Feb 2009 23:03 GMT
Well, as mentioned already, I'm happy to report that I'm back down the gym, as-of this evening! We did a chest session today. Unfortunately the gym is in the process of a hand-over so the bumbells had been shipped off elsewhere. However, we were still able to do barbell exercises, pec deck, etc. In fact, we recorded some video of the session for episode 1 that we'll be posting to YouTube (and on here of course). We may also post some of the individual exercises to this blog which we'll talk through. more »
