Colobb Phera Vol/Methyl Vol.. 7 weeks to HUGENESS

[colobb]

Hey everyone, I am starting my first cycle in a looong time. I start my cycle tommarow. I am running PV, and MV for 7 weeks bridging them. I will update my log daily and will post starting and ending pics. I will set it up like this:

weeks: 1 30mg PV
2 30mg PV
3 30mg PV
4 30mg PV / 20mg MV
5 20mg MV
6 20mg MV
7 20mg MV (might cut this week short if sides become too bad)

Supporting supps: milk thistle, hawthorne berry, coQ10, multi, fish oils

PCT: i will post my plan of this later, but i can assure you guys i have done me research and am prepared.

My diet will be bulking all clean calories: 4800cals/530carbs/450pro/100fat

Stats: 6' 200lbs, %9 bf.

Chest: 46"
Arms: 17"
Forearms:13.5"
Thighs: 26"
Calves: 15.5" (tiny)
Waist: 33"

Goals: looking to put on 20lbs of lean muscle, befor i start cutting in august for my next competition.

Cycle history: One cycle of Superdrol over a year ago, and M1T over two years ago.

Training: strictly for size, i am never too concerned with how much weight i can push.
but for those of you who are curious here are my PR's:
Bench: 110lbs d-bells (i don't like b-bell)
Squat: 345lbs
Militarty press: 100lbs d-bell

[jw25558]

Subbed;) Your cycle looks great! You should get freaky huge with this stack. Diet and workout routine looks great. Looking forward to it!

[llllern]

[colobb]

Subbed;) Your cycle looks great! You should get freaky huge with this stack. Diet and workout routine looks great. Looking forward to it!

planning on getting freaky huge! chest/forearms workout tommarow, i will post my daily workouts, weight, diet, sides, and how i am feeling each day. I am planning on putting up my measurements every week too.

[NightTrain]

good luck, i'll be following

[Sonny]

thanks man, what do you think of my set up for the cycle?

I would taper a bit, maybe you are though, and it may be a week too long as you noted-wait and see as you said.

Only comment is I could never to legs after back day with all the low back work I do. Not sure where that fits into your plans, but good core strength will lead to moving bigger weights which will lead to mass. Just a thought.

Good luck!

[Got2getbig!]

Agreed with Sonny on the training.
I can get a good leg workout after a back day, but i can't do any kind of squats, due to soreness.

Good luck, actually it has nothing to do with luck... train hard, eat right, dedicate and commit!

By the way.. I did the same stack, but a shorter cycle last year and didn't have much sides except for the back pumps, but there weren't bad either, one thing for sure... I love SD in your case MV, a clone. Should give you great results.

[colobb]

just took my first cap of pher-vol this morning and am off to train a few clients and then workout. I will post my workout and everything tonight. I have never had any problems with having back and legs in consecutive days, if i have problems i will definetly change it up. thanks for the advice guys.

misc: up 3lbs! LOVE IT! i feel much fuller and my skin feels tighter already, i can already feel really good things to come from this cycle!

Strength: was very good, still not huge increases like i have felt on superdrol with my first cycle. But i still have that to look forward to.

Sides: i took everyones advice and seperated my back and leg day because i was starting to notice some pretty bad pumps already, and didn't want to aggrivate it anymore then i have to.

misc: i have been busy as hell, my PT has really taken off and some days i have more then 15 clients per day (1/2 hr sessions). But i am doing the best i can to pack on the pounds. Does anyone know when PV really starts to kick in? I was expecting a little more by now.

[jef2007]

nice log colobb , i like to see the exercises people do and the weights they put up threw the cycle,, its boring when you see logs that just say ya today was chest felt stronger well tomorrows arms and not much of showing there exercise routines, and ##'s....so looks good man keep on giving it your best shot.....

[Sonny]

Log looks good.


You really do a lot for shoulders.

[solomon1979]

Two-three weeks. I like it, but its no SD as far as instant gratification. Same goes for Epistane/Methyl-E/Hemaguno/Epi-Max/Havoc. You may not feel it right away, but when you do, its very nice.

Thanks, i have never liked simple logs like that.

Log looks good.

Its the only thing i have found to work for my delts. High Volume

Two-three weeks. I like it, but its no SD as far as instant gratification. Same goes for Epistane/Methyl-E/Hemaguno/Epi-Max/Havoc. You may not feel it right away, but when you do, its very nice.

Strength: was up on pretty much everything from last week. Thats always nice to see.

Sides: no back pumps today (suprising) but i was very lethargic.

Misc: i'm down a pound today and its very irritating, i know that i shouldn't pay attention to the scale as much as I do but its hard not to. If anyone has some good tips on adding in more calories throughout the day let me know. Thanks for all the feedback guys.

[Sonny]

Strength is up which is nice. Would not worry about #1 but I know what you mean. How about a pre-breakfast shake for extra cals? I (sometimes) have a shake right when I wake. Then I walk the dog, take a shower, etc by then I am hungry to eat. I got an extra 30-35g protein I would not have gotten, but of course you could add something to it for more cals. ?

[B-natural]

Things are lookin good man, keep it up, weights look solid, 4lbs isn't bad either

[Got2getbig!]

Mixed nuts, peanut butter are great to increase caloric intake. Loking good man!

[Sonny]

You are really doing well so far. Weight gain has been very good I think-8# at your training level. Strength improving like that is definitely nice too.

As far as sleep I do not take sleep aids, some do. I take zma which I believe does help me sleep. Also, sometimes I take a long shower-kinda helps me relax.

[UNCfan1]

Things should get good now:D U are posting strong numbers keep it up.

yeah i am very happy with the weight gains so far. and i still have 3 weeks on MV!! ZMA is a good idea i know when i used to take it, it would help me relax and get a much better nights sleep.

misc: if anyone has any tips or suggestions befor i hit this last week of my cycle, let me know.

[solomon1979]

Methyl-Vol is pretty tame as far as sides go. IMO, just stick with what you have going. if at all possible try and score some WMS(if you don't already have some)

So was this your first experience with phs? cuz 13lbs is damn good for a cycle

[Paladin]

Damn man looks good, and still no sides. You got to be loving this :) Keep it up man your doing great!

[reignman]

any updates to your progess?

[BEN BENEDICT]

Looking good Collob, seems you are seeing some great results! No sides always a plus!!

[colobb]

hey guys sorry about the updates, i came down with a nasty cold and have been pretty busy at work so i havn't had a chance to update.
I ended my cycle yesterday and am happy to say that no sides or even any signs of shutdown occured. I am into my pct and am slowly tapering my cals down to prep for my contest in early November (i am dieiting for 19 weeks). I am going to start a journal over in the bodybuilding headquarters section. And will post my pics there, so you can see the progress i have made off of my cycle and my on-going progress throughout the 19 weeks.

so here is my final conclusion for my cycle:

strength: Phera Vol is not the compoud for this, didn't see huge jumps until i threw in the methyl vol.

sides: little acne flared up at the begining, but thats it... very strange

size: i had good size gains (gained 15lbs), i havn't taken my post measurements but i can tell i have gained some good size.

I am very happy with this cycle, i am trying to line something out for my contest prep if anyone has any suggestions on what compounds would benefit me the most i would really appriciate it. Thanks guys!
