MTS Log: TRT/Cruise

Hi there,

Making a log of my current cruise.
I’m on maintenance phase.
Currently sitting at 95kg (for 1m71)
I’ve been on TRT for 6 weeks probably.
•Current macro:
P:300
C:150
F:150
Total cal: 3150 calories
(Some may considers it’s low in carbs, but that’s what suits me the most on maintenance in terms of energy/digestion/…)

•Current cycle:
-Test Cypionate (MTS): 100mg E4D
-Genotropin: 1mg (3iu) pre-bed
-Proviron: 10mg ED

Nice work keeping the log going mate. TRT bloods looking good? Always keen to see where hematocrit lands on a cruise - that's usually the thing that creeps up on people. How's the E2 sitting?

Thanks buddy.
Blood work is good, that’s a sample of the panel from the blood work I’ve done 4 weeks ago.
Hématocrites are in range ( a bit high), but we need to consider the fact I was running a Boldenone cycle before that

Looking solid man. How far into the cruise are you now, and are the bloods sitting where you need them?

Thanks brother.
Currently 6 weeks (maybe 7 into cruise).
Everything is in range.
I’ll push the cruise till week 10 I think, firstly because I’ve got shit tones of work till June, and I need full clarity to perform in both of my jobs, which I cannot really when I’m on cycle (mostly because I am eating heavier meals = digestion = lethargy).
I also wants my hématocrites to decrease a bit as I will run again Boldenone in my next cycle.
I actually ain’t in a rush, so I will see.
Currently feeling amazing, full of energy, more athletic and esthetic, but off course we all love with a bit more of meat on the frame hahaha


Considering my next cycle to be:
-Test E
-Boldenone
-Parabolan

Good call on extending. The clarity thing on cycle is underrated, heavier eating makes you sluggish and it adds up when you've got serious work on. Smart to wait on the EQ too. Boldenone will push hematocrit harder than almost anything else in the stack so letting it normalise on cruise first is exactly right. What were your numbers on the last bloods?

Yeah ain’t not rush, wellbeing/health state is what I am prioritizing.
Hématocrites were sitting around 62 last blood check (on cycle), nothing crazy as I run a stack to lower it:
-telmisartan 20mg pre bed
-baby aspirin preworkout
-3g Omega (EPA + DHA) 3/d
-curcuma tabs
-4l of water/d
-low cardio 3times/week

62 is up there mate but your stack looks solid. Telmisartan does measurably help with viscosity and the omega 3 plus aggressive hydration combo is genuinely effective. Have you tried therapeutic phlebotomy through your GP though? Donation every 8 weeks pulled my numbers back more consistently than supplements ever did when I was on a similar level. Worth knowing too that hydration alone shifts the test result more than people realise, I dropped from 53 to 49.8 once just by drinking heavily the day before bloods. Either way good to see you tracking it properly, most blokes don't bother until something goes wrong.

Let’s say GPs where I live are not too familiar/experienced with phlebotomy, I did few time myself but I ain’t a huge fan lol
For donating blood, I’m not an “acceptable candidate” for it.
The most “stupid” way I found out water affect the viscosity, sometimes when I was getting blood work without drinking water before, was having hard time to fill all the vials, but since I was as drinking one big glass of water prior blood work, I was “pissing out” the blood so easily

Hydration trick is real, drinking 500ml-1L of water 30-60 min before the draw genuinely changes how fast the tubes fill. Phleb usually clocks it straight away when the blood is thick. On the donation rejection, depends on the reason, but therapeutic phlebotomy through your GP is the workaround if it is medication related. Get the prescription, a private clinic does the draw for a medical reason and you avoid the donor eligibility maze entirely.

Thanks for the tips bro, I’ll check that

What dose you cruising on? I find 175 sits sweet for me, anything over 200 and my e2 starts climbing even with adex dialled in.

It might be injection frequency related, or either conversion sensitive.
I personally know my E2 climbs about injecting E3D. With stable proviron intake in currently good injecting E4D


•Current cycle:
-Test Cypionate (MTS): 100mg E4D
-Genotropin: 1mg (3iu) pre-bed
-Proviron: 10mg ED

100mg E4D on cyp gives you nice flat blood levels, that ester is forgiving at TRT doses. The proviron at 10mg ED is doing more than people credit it for, it competes for the aromatase enzyme so less of your test pool actually converts to e2 in the first place. Be curious to see bloods on this protocol vs the E3D days, that'd settle the frequency vs proviron question.

At E3D without the proviron, E2 were sitting at 40, nothing crazier than the current state, but that’s close to the crossing point where I get sensitive nipple, which I try to avoid as much as I can because of competing

Was on travel + had a chest infection, did not train for a week, barely ate when I was sick. Today first day back at the gym.

Good to see you back at it mate. Chest infection wipes you out worse than people think, lungs take a couple weeks to feel right again even when you feel fine in the rest of the body. First few sessions back will feel like absolute death so do not chase your last numbers, just get the blood moving and the appetite back. Glycogen and food first, weight on the bar second.
