Purpose of Each Compound
Testosterone EnanthateThe foundation of the cycle. Used to maintain anabolic support, preserve muscle mass during prep, sustain strength, recovery, and overall performance while dieting.
Drostanolone Enanthate (Masteron E)
Included to help achieve a harder, drier look as body fat comes down. Also complements the overall anabolic profile during contest prep.
Nandrolone Decanoate (Deca)
Kept at a low dose primarily for joint comfort and training quality while continuing to provide additional anabolic support.
Clenbuterol
Used as a fat-loss aid to support the cutting phase while helping maintain training intensity and energy expenditure.
Oxymetholone (Anadrol)
Used only on chest and back days—my weakest body parts—to maximize training performance and muscle fullness during those sessions, together with a high-carb pre- and post-workout meal.
Retatrutide
Used to improve appetite control and make adherence to the diet easier throughout the prep. The dose may be adjusted according to hunger levels and will be discontinued before the carb-up phase.
Water Intake
- 1.2 L intra-workout
- 5 L throughout the day (3 L consumed before lunch).
Diet
- 2,600 kcal/day, except for the two high-carb days mentioned above.
Cardio
- At least 60 min standing bicycle every day.
Training Split
- Chest / Shoulders / Triceps
- Back / Biceps
- Arms / Abs
- Legs
- Rest day, then repeat
Planned Phase 3 Adjustments
Approximately 30 days out from the competition, we'll begin Phase 3 of the prep.The plan is to introduce T3 (Triiodothyronine) starting at 25 mcg/day, increasing the dose gradually as needed.
At that point, Oxymetholone will be replaced with oral Stanozolol, and we may also add low doses of Trenbolone Acetate to finish the prep, depending on how conditioning progresses.
The Retatrutide dose will likely be increased if my appetite starts to rise during prep. However, it will be discontinued 15 days before the show to avoid interfering with the carb-up.
As we get closer to show day, Nandrolone Decanoate and Testosterone Enanthate will also likely be removed from the protocol.
Finally, during the last few days before the competition, it may become necessary to introduce diuretics, depending on my condition and how much water I'm holding.
Below are my before-and-after pictures comparing March vs. today.
You can also check my review thread to see the package I brought to the stage at my last competition in 2025, where I competed at 86 kg.
The plan is to stay in the amateur ranks throughout 2026 and make a serious run at earning my IFBB Pro Card in 2027.
