Hi all,

I'm new to the forums as you can tell this is my post since my introduction post. I am currently shedding some pounds after my bulk phase from Jan - May this year (can see some results from the link in my sig if interested). For my next mass building phase I am planning to go on the Test Explosion stack as I have heard many great things about the stack and have enjoyed each Animal product that I have tried so far (M-Stak and Cuts).

I have been training for approximately 3 - 4 years. I started up again in Jan after taking a long break. I'm currently 5'7 and approx 173LBS. I have normally been a pretty good gainer when it comes to putting on size. I have a solid diet which I believe is the most important aspect of it all.

I am looking to put together the best Mass Building routine while doing this Test Explosion and would value any input anyone was able to provide. I currently train on a 2 day split program which sometimes varies depending on how my body feels. If it needs another day of rest and I give it. During my bulk phases I always train to failure and usually do about 4 sets per exercise in the 12 - 6 rep range.....sometimes going to 4. I try to keep the major compound exercises in there as well.

For this mass building phase I was thinking about dropping some of my extra exercises that I usually do and mainly stick to jsut the compounds and hit them especially hard. With of course maintaining a high calorie , high protein diet.

My supplement stack is planning to consist of:

2 cycles of Animal Test and 2 cycles of Animal Stack at the same time.
Animal Pump
Animal Pak
Animal Flek
Animal Nitro
Universal Torrent
Fish Oil
Purple Wraath (if needed for Intra Workout)
Lots of foodz!!

If anyone has any suggestions or feedback to make maximum size gains on this stack I would greatly welcome it.

Thanks guys,

2 day split on a cut? I don't know if I've ever heard of anyone trying that.

What does Day A and B look like for you?

Sorry I meant the 2 day split is when I am Mass Building/Bulking.

My 2 day split goes like this:

Day 1 - Back/Bi's
Day 2 - Shoulders (giving extra attention to shoulders)
Day 3 - Off
Day 4 - Chest/Tri's
Day 5 - Legs
Day 6 - Off
Day 7 - Repeat or take an extra day off if body asks for it

I also do abs and calves 2 - 3 times per week. I don't do any cardio while im bulking.

Typically when someone says 2 day split I think, two days a week. Maybe my lingo is off, maybe yours. Whatever.

That all looks good, are you looking for exercises to satisfy those parts?
I can share my mass building routine with you via PM. My routine is similar to that except I hit parts of the shoulder more specifically*. I just finished up a cycle of M-Stak running my routine, I gained 8 pounds, and lost a bit of body fat. Let me know if you're interested.


*By specifically I mean I work front/side delts one day, and side/back delts on another. I'm aiming for serious growth in my delts right now.

typically what you're referring to is called 2:1 of a 2-1 split. but its all good.
