I'm curious to how those who compete plan their cycles/B&C/bulk/prep etc around shows. Obviously if cycling, in theory when you come off, the next cycle you would be playing catch up to get the gains back lost but then having to diet for the prep which would effect size and gains etc. So your in a sense always playing catch up. I suppose with b&c you can maintain or even gain during the cruise then on the blast you could build in that the start the prep? (This is proving harder to type out than what I'm trying to say ) Basically how do those who compete plan all their cycles prep etc? My original plan is to cruise before hitting next blast. do a longer cycle/blast..say 20 weeks. Bulk for say 8 weeks or so then start the prep for the rest of the cycle?? Anyways any help would be great..will be first comp.

Ok so this is the follow up journal from my win at the PCA Saxon Classic Novice class, everything went absolutely perfectly, prep was brilliant, i was on high food most the time and i came in looking by far my best, i even worked out that at the same point 3 weeks out from my last show 2 years ago i was 19lbs heavier, now thats a lean 19lbs too!! Gives me confidence that my approach to training, food and drugs are the right way to go and that maticulous research over the years has paid off. Anyway, this is now my journal for my prep for PCA British finals in October, i competed weighing around 16st 10lbs (234lbs/104kg) and currently i weighed in this morning at 17st 2.8lbs (240.8lbs/107kg). Training has adapted slightly, i now do legs twice a week to further bring them up, i actually only had 6 months to add size to them last year before starting prep as i was having Physio for the first 6 months of the year, luckily they are all sorted now and i can do legs pain free, it actually got so bad that it hurt to walk upstairs!! Not good at the ripe old age of 31! As always, i'll be open an honest, feel free to ask me anything, or PM me if you want it answered privately. I'm also taking on a few clients now so feel free to PM me about that if you like my approach and feel we could work well together. Enjoy

Hi! This is not my content nor my prep, but someone's who I've been following on the social media. Testotimo is a 24-year-old finnish bodybuilder who is prepping for his first competition, the Iron Rebel Show, which takes place in Denmark in roughly four weeks. Testotimo has started a new youtube series called "Road To Iron Rebel Show". These videos are his first that are done in English and he wished that his followers would share the video to different platforms so he could see if anyone non-finnish would be interested in them. The video is made very well and I thought that you guys might be interested. Here's the link to the pilot: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_0R3c2U6tv4
