[rockmfhudd]

you are currently running all of this? and for how long have you been on the sarms?

 

[rockmfhudd]

and I guess another question what does PER mean?

YES

and for how long have you been on the sarms?

Since Early December

and I guess another question what does PER mean?

PER: I meant Pure Essence

Can you give a little more detail. Are you actually taking all those compounds or are you planning to? What does PER mean? Also I'm not a cyclist but am a cardio junkie. I noticed a few years ago I was actually getting slower when I was squating and training legs extensively 3 days a week. I ended only doing heavy compound movements one day a week and doing accessory and body weight high rep movements on another day a week and it drastically improved my recovery.

 

[FL1025]

Ok what does your diet look like aswell?

 

[rockmfhudd]

u don't need to take the clomid now take it at the end of your cycle the last 4 weeks. 3 weeks after your last test pin start clomid and possibly the mk and gw how long are you running this? 8 or 12 weeks?

Squat 3Xweek and 5 cycling sessions? No wonder your legs are always sore. I would consider a deload and letting up on the workouts.........perhaps drop a squat session to start.

I know, I know... but PEDs help weightlifters do more volume in the gym...

I am looking for something to help so I do not have to cut a ton of volume...

I usually do a 4 week rotation of 3 weeks building and then 1 week of half(ish) volume (recovery week)

In order to improve recovery, you are probably going to have to either cut intensity, frequency, or volume. It's going to be one of them. You said you don't want to really reduce volume so your only other options is intensity or frequency. so you may have to reduce workload by going to a lighter weight, doing more reps, etc. or the more logical approach is to reduce frequency. Sounds like frequency is your problem

Squatting every gym session sounds pretty counterproductive to me. You have to allow yourself time to rest and recover in order to progress.

Thanks Rick!

I know, I know BUT, I am looking for a PED to help me recover faster regardless.

Any Thoughts?

 

[rockmfhudd]

mk2866 will help with recovery but I don't know if it will help a body part for that much abuse

Also, you must understand that PEDs will help recovery of muscle but that does not mean that the other "stuff" (ligaments, tendons, etc) can always keep up. Trust me, this I can say from personal experience..............the AAS can help you push harder because of your quick recovery but I have NEVER had any injuries from overtraining until AAS. So, in your case it may compound the situation.

From a different angle though, several people that use AAS are telling you that you may need to slow down to make gains. It seems like you are pretty set on medicating you way out of it but it would be very remiss to disregard this advice so quickly.

Agree! Easier said than done

I think I am taking the max dose of 2866

You are dead on there brother. Exercise/lifting/gains/etc can be crazy addicting. You seem very driven and that makes it even tougher.

Thanks Texas...
I have an all or nothing personality... It is why I gain so fast but sometimes crash and burn...
I am Willing to listen and it is not that I want to "medicate my way out of it" - BUT I would like to maximize any PEDs to my advantage just like everyone on this board.
I am willing to do less volume, etc - however the only thing suggested so far to maximize recovery from a PED standpoint is mk2866 (which I already use).
I appreciate all the advice on volume/slowing down/ etc (it is sound advice). I have been upfront about what I do.

In the gym I mostly strength train as I don't need extra weight being a cyclist.

Is mk2866 the only thing out there that can help me recover faster from workout to workout.
