Stack Log: Clen, T3, & LGD 4033 "Leaning Out Cycle"
Okay folks, this is my first post on these forums, and I'm just looking for a place to drop some knowledge and info on what happens and to chronicle my results with these SARMs. I haven't seen any info in regards to something like this and well, if it turns out to be a huge mistake, then maybe it will stop some other idiots from making the same mistakes I make. Besides, they're research chems, so eff it, let's see what happens.
About me: Soooo, I got fat, cuuuz I drank a lot, cooked professionally and ate a lot of awesome sh!t over the years. After college, I pretty much never worked out, and my health suffered as a result. I like to consider that time in my life as just a LOOOONG bulking cycle!
Goals: Past two years I've gotten back into the gym, worked out a min of 4 days a week, and I am very active at work, in my profession as a chef. So I quit drinking, tried a ton of OTC supps, now I'm eating clean, macros and all, got a fitbit, and I have seen that previous self image change dramatically; but still far short of where I know I can be.
At my heaviest; I was 5'9" and 230lbs of fat ass Chef. And I'm currently sitting at a beefy 200lbs, but I've put on a decent amount of muscle these past 18 months. My fat around the mid section is still there, and no matter what I do won't decrease.
So that's the reason for this "Leaning out cycle".
Let's not call it a "Cutting Cycle", as I personally believe, I really don't have a lot to "Cut" into! I am really trying to recomp and recondition my mid-frame and get back the body I used to have without going under the knife.
I've done test cycles in the past in college, and I know what AAS can do, but at 41 I'm not sure I really want to go down that road again. The "Idea" of SARMs, in a perfect world, seem great! No, you're right, today's SARMs probably won't give me the results that those amazing AAS test stacks did when I was 22, but right now I have health and longevity to think about. Kind of hypocritical: Yes, but I believe at this point in my life, it's still worth a shot/"Calculated" risk.
I know a lot of ppl on here have used LGD as a bulking/building SARM but I wanted to see what it could do as a recomp/cutter. By adding it to a cutting cycle of Clen/T3, I'm hoping to boost the t3 gains and then continue the building process after the Clen/T3 are done.
There is a lot of info out there on both cycles separately, but I haven't really found anything on them used together. I assume there is a "logical" reason for not running them together, but I haven't found a plausible reason yet.
Again, that's why I'm here. I'm sure there are a ton of ppl here that will be willing to flame, troll, and criticize what I'm doing, but on the other side of those 2 copper pieces, I'm sure there will be plenty of others willing to give constructive, knowledgeable wisdom, and help an old guy out.

-Week 1 Recap:-
Day 1:
- Soooo Nothing much the first day... possible heart palps that lasted about 3 min after I got stressed out at work.
Day 2:
- Amazing pump on arms tonight, very minimal cramping on hard flexion. Feel extra sweaty but it's been hot in NorCal the past two days.
Day 3:
- Started sweating a bit more, more-so when I eat... weird.
- Pumps were great! WORKOUTS FELT LIGHT!!! Felt like I could keep going and going. No pre-workout today and felt even MORE focused than usual. Probably more Mental than chemical...
- Heart rate on the treadmill was 15% above normal doing the same moderate walking I always do. Normal range is 127-136,today was at 156-158
- Feeling increased lethargy. Only getting 6 hrs sleep a night M-f, but I got a full 8.5 hrs tonight and still needed an afternoon nap...
- Both biceps cramped lightly due to poor hydration early in the AM, even though I was working chest and Back.
- Just started to feel jittery mid-day with LCD now at 5ml. Kind of like when you've had 6 rockstars in 3 hours.
- Headache with low blood sugar post workout.
- Appetite about normal, but I'm a little Chatty Cathy now! Friendly and Approachable... Not normal! lol!!!
