TweetWhen I was "natty" I used different 9 week mesocycles for strength training. I would do 2 or three of these strength mesocycles and then maybe 1 hypertrophy cycle to maintain or gain muscle size. I won't get into my actual training here because that's some top secret CIA type shit.

Now with AAS use for a very experienced lifter, I have yet to find a mesocycle or periodization scheme that works for continued gains not dependent on the type/quantity of AAS.

What type routines have you experimented with and mesocycle/microcycle breakdown for continued gains (5lbs or more per year on a lift)?
