Pre-Contest Cycle

[nanuc]

A friend of mine is going to try and compete in the NPC Mr. New England this coming May and wanted some advice as to what a good pre-contest cycle would be. If any of you guys good help me point me him in the right direction that would be great. Thanks bros. He has doen several local shows and has won his weight class a couple of times. He is going to go on stage at about 179-185 I am guessing.

Something like this would work:

Figure the contest is at the end of week 16

week 1-14 800mg/week test enan.
week 1-16 600mg/week Eq
week 13-16 50mg/day tren ace.
week 13-16 50mg/day winstrol
week 1-16 50mg/day proviron
week 1-12 20mg/day nolvadex
week 13-16 1mg/day arimidex

The tren and winstrol are taken ED the last 4 weeks right through the contest. Proviron and arimidex are also taken ED through the contest.

This is not an especially hardcore cycle but there's really no reason for that. Precontest cycles are all about simply saving the muscle that's been gained previously, while strenuously dieting. You're not going to gain much if any muscle while dieting so you just need moderate doses to prevent any muscle loss.

Good luck,

P.S. T3, clen, ECAY can all be used/alternated depending on how much fat needs to be lost. Depending on finances, GH and/or IGF-1LR3 can also be used although they're really not necessary.

A few thoughts...

You said he is going to be about 179 to 185 or so? Assuming this is an NPC event, I would suggest he try to make it down to middle weights and shoot for 176. Getting on stage at a bigger show and potentially giving away close to 20 pounds to others in the same class is not the best idea (light-heavies go from about 177 to 198). Symmetry and conditioning CAN overcome size, but it's a rare person that can really pull it off.

Make sure his diet and training/cardio regiment is in line. That is THE top priority. Drugs are icing on the cake if you have the first two nailed down. Maxrep laid out a fairly conservative cycle that should yield an excellent physique if diet and training are dialed in.

Best wishes!

Sounds great!! How would prop and var fit into this?
