To Arimidex or not to Arimidex?

ok, I am here seeking a third and final opinion :

I'll be doing my 1st cycle :d-bal 30mg/ed week 1-4 and test enan 500mg/wk week 1-10. I have nolva and clomid.

A want an anti-aromitase in my cycle. Femara would be an over kill and liquidex not practical (the measuring part of it), so I am looking at Arimidex. Recommendation go from one end of the spectrum to the other.

what would you suggest:
1) 1 tab ed wk 1-4, and 1 tab eod wk 5-10.
2) 1 tab eod wk 1-10.
3) 1tab eod wk 1-4 and 1 tab e2d wk 5-10.

Being my first cycle I don't know if I am gyno prone or not.
stats: 45 yrsold, 5'8", 235 lbs, good mass foundation, clean diet and have been lifting for over 10yrs.

Thanks for all replies.

How is Femara overkill? From what I have read, Femara has other benefits that just acting as an anti-aromitase.

Femara is supposed to raise IGF-1 levels, while Arimidex lowers them.

I'm curious about why not opt for liquidex - it's cheaper and works as well as arimidex (from what I understand)... not sure I understand why measuring it out would not be practical... ???

Femara is MUCH stronger than arimidex, it would be overkill in the sense that 500mg/wk test and 30mg/ED dbol doesn't cause enough bloat to necessitate femara usage, arimidex or liquidex would be suitable.

I don't see why measuring liquidex would be impractical though, its 1mg/ml usually and there is some places that have 2mg/ml but its pretty simple to measure on a syringe.

It's a hell of a lot easier than trying to measure the 80mg 4mg/ml Liquidex I have with a 23g syringe. That is why I'm gonna use a slin pin. They are easier..........but since I got the last of that kinda liquidex I have to use a slin to properly dose. The new stuff measures alot easier.

.25mg-.5mg ED should suffice. You may need to up it during the Dbol because of added water retention but I wouldn't go above 1mg ED.

Hey Bro, at our age I'd think about dropping the d-bol and get some aromasin aka Exemestane. The d-bol causes your blood pressure to go up. Femara and arimidex change your lipid profile, LDL go up, HDL go down, which is not good.

Have the nolva and aromasin on hand in case of gyno. If you don't need it don't use it. JMO
