Hey everyone,

I’m excited to share my 12-week cycle plan and would really appreciate any advice or feedback from the experienced members here. I'm a little new to posting on forums, so bear with me as I navigate this.

About Me:
- Age: 37
- Height: 170 cm / 5'6"
- Weight: 65.9 kg
- Body Fat: 18.8%
- Muscle Mass: 77.1%
- Water: 55.7%

I’ve got decent genetics (despite being Asian—I know genetics can sometimes be a challenge for us in the bodybuilding world!) but I've had some trouble putting on muscle in the past. My body fat is relatively low, and I have a visible six-pack, but my muscles have been feeling a bit deflated lately due to a long period of low-carb dieting. So, I’m getting back into the game with the goal of a clean bulk and to add some muscle mass while keeping water retention low.

Cycle Plan:
Here’s the breakdown of my 12-week cycle:

- Week 1-4: Test E 250mg + Tren E 100mg
- Week 5-12: Test E 500mg + Tren E 200mg

Target: Clean bulk with muscle gain and minimal water retention.

I’m taking it slow this time around, starting with a low dosage since it’s been 10 years since my last cycle. I wanted to ease back in and make sure I don't overwhelm my body or experience unnecessary side effects.

Current Status:
- I’m 3 weeks in at the moment, and so far, things are going well. No major issues yet, but I’m definitely feeling the effects of the Tren. I’m planning to keep track of my progress and post weekly updates, training logs, and any changes I notice in terms of strength, physique, and recovery.

A Few Questions for the Forum:
1. Has anyone else started with low dosages after a long break? How did it go for you?
2. Water retention: I’m trying to keep it minimal, so any advice on managing this while on Test and Tren would be appreciated.
3. I’ve been on a zero-carb diet for a while, and now I’m reintroducing carbs gradually. How should I adjust my diet to support muscle gain without gaining too much fat?

I’m open to any tips on diet, training, or cycle modifications you think would be helpful!
Looking forward to hearing your thoughts and experiences. I’ll be posting updates every week so we can keep track of progress together.
 
Hey everyone,
Just checking in with a mid-cycle update! We're now 6 weeks into the 12-week cycle, and I’m feeling pretty good overall. Thanks to everyone who's given me feedback so far—it’s been super helpful.

Current Status:
  • Weight: 69.3 kg (+3.4 kg from the start)
  • Body Fat: 19.2% (slightly up, but I expected that with the reintroduction of carbs)
  • Muscle Mass: 78.5% (muscle growth is definitely happening!)
  • Strength: Feeling stronger across the board, especially on my compound lifts—squats and deadlifts are improving.
How I'm Feeling:

  • Energy: No issues with energy levels; if anything, I feel like I have more drive in the gym. The Tren sides are still present but manageable. A little insomnia at times, but nothing too extreme.
  • Recovery: Recovery is improving, but I’ve noticed a bit of joint discomfort—nothing alarming, though. I’m going to try adding some glucosamine to see if that helps.
  • Mood: There’s definitely been some irritability from the Tren, but it’s manageable. I’ve found that keeping my stress in check outside the gym (working on mental game) helps me handle it better.
Diet & Water Retention:
  • The gradual carb reintroduction is going well. I’ve been focusing on clean, nutrient-dense carbs like sweet potatoes, brown rice, and oats. I’m trying to keep a high-protein intake (about 2g per kg of body weight).
  • Water retention is definitely something I’m keeping an eye on, especially with the higher Test E dose now. I’ve started using an AI (Aromasin) just to manage any bloat, and it’s helping so far.
Questions
  1. Has anyone experienced a plateau around week 6? My strength gains are good, but I feel like the muscle mass gain is slowing down a bit. Should I adjust my cycle or training to push through it?
 
To keep water retention low on Test and Tren:
  1. Watch your salt intake. Less salt = less water retention. Stick to clean, whole foods, and add more potassium (bananas, sweet potatoes, spinach) to help balance out sodium.
  2. Drink more water! It sounds weird, but the more you drink, the less your body holds onto.
  3. If you're bloating, you can add a mild AI (Arimidex or Aromasin), but don’t overdo it, or you might mess with your estrogen.
  4. Throw in some cardio a couple times a week. It helps with water retention by improving circulation.
  5. Some guys use dandelion root or potassium supplements for water, but check with your doc before you try them.
