Help with 1st cycle

[cobra22c]

I am 26 years old, 185 lbs., have been lifting on and off for approximately 7 years. Never really got serious until now. Have been doing research and from everything I have read Deca seems to be the safest (littlest side effects) compared to others like tes. However like I said this is my 1st time and am looking for some advice on dosages and what gear to use. Also is the vet grade stuff as good as any other? I was thinking of 300mg of deca per week for an 8 week cycle. Any ideas ....

I'm also 26 at 185 pds and just started my first ever cycle 5 weeks ago.
Over time you will be told:
Test-e 500 mg a week (250mg every 3.5 days) weeks 1-12
Nolvadex 10-20mg ed-weeks 1-17
Clomid(pct)-300 mg-week 14/day 1
clomid-100 mg ed-week 14/for 10 days
clomid-50 mg ed-for the last 10 days(ending on week 17)

No for a couple reasons.

first you need to run test with deca , second the deca should be at at least 400mg/wk, third deca needs to be ran for around 12 weeks.

Try this for your first cycle
Test Enanthate 500mg/wk (2 shots per week) for 10 weeks
followed by PCT 2wks after the last shot

cool, I really appreciate any advice I can get and I’m glad to see that people are willing to educate a NEWBE like me.

This is also the best advice I could give, I agree. Deca may be a low androgenic steroid , but it is also one of the most suppresive. Its highly recommended to run it with test, or else you could most likely not be functioning in "certain" areas.

Should I be taking something to suppress the estrogen conversion throughout the 10 week cycle besides the PCT at the end? Also where should the injection site be and should I change up injection sites? Should the needle be submerged all the way into the injection site? What gauge/kind of needles do I need? Anything else you all could tell me is greatly appreciated. Just assume that I don’t already know. Thanks

Did you guys read his post? You are all giving cycle advice and everyone missed the most important point. He has been lifting on and off for 7 years. Do not hit the gear until you have been lifting on for 2 years in a row. If you have that long, then you are ready.
