I need help understanding what gear I need to administer my first cycle. I will be taking Winnie. Any suggestions on what syringe and needles I might need to order?

Thanks!

Hey buddy.

What are your stats? I know you're 33, but what is your weight, height, body fat percentage and years at the gym?

ps... Body Fat percentage is crucial info, so please don't skip that one

6'3' 225 lbs.11% body fat. I started out 5 years ago in the gym at 184 lbs. I lift 5 days a week for a hour each and do cardio 5x a week for 30 min. I have not missed a day in 5 years in gym or cardio. My diet is good! I am very disciplined with my diet. I can adjust easily if I want o bulk or cut. I got Dow to 5.5 % body fat last year with nothing but diet and TRT. I am a ectmorph and never done a real cycle.

Good stats, Chx!

Here's the deal with first cycles, this is of course an experienced opinion, and surely others will chime in with different opinions and experiences...

For a 1st cycle, I always recommend a long ester testosterone only, without stacking anything. Here is my reasoning:

1. You will need to understand how your body reacts to test alone since it will be your base for all future cycles. Cycling anything without test is not recommended because AAS will shut down your natural test production, and that is not fun!

2. You don't want to use multiple compounds because you will never be able to identify which compound is causing the sides that you may not be handling well.

3. Test only cycles can yield outstanding results! Whether cutting or bulking.

That said, you've got a little work to do... I'd like to know if you have any research done regarding what you need to take on cycle to control estrogen levels, testicular atrophy and if you know about Post cycle therapy . What say you?

My situation is different. I have been on heavy dosages of TRT for a couple of years. So I feel like a test only cycle would be a waste.

whats your trt dose?

**Chx beach 79** · 10-14-2012, 08:10 PM

750 mg of test per week for last few years, I get blood tests every 90 days and all is good. Also my doctor has multiple anti estrogen meds on call at my pharmacy: tamoxifen and novadex I think. I have never needed it! Also my test stay between 900 and 1100 always.

Ok, Im assuming you're talking about androgel ?

It's probably a good idea to get familiar with all the stickies available and the educational threads section. Lots of great info there that will help you before you make the switch to injections.

i have never heard a trt dose run at 750mg/wk. The highest ive seen is 250mg. Im not calling you a liar but something isnt adding up here.

It's probably a versabase.

I like Terumo 23gauge 1" to draw and 25gauge 1" to pin. 3ml syringes, site sponsor ar-r has them.

I am on 3 pumps of androgel daily 20mg. Per pump. Also on axiron pumps 2x a day 30 mg per pump. My dr. Is very proactive if you have no bad side effects and your blood tests come back good. My test stays between 900 and 1100 and has for the last couple years. That is pretty high.

I guess ive been pinning so long I didnt think outside the box

**Chx beach 79** · 10-14-2012, 08:25 PM

It is common for some new HRT doctors to try and keep test as high as possible if there are no bad blood tests. I've been on it for 5 years. And only been slowly increasing because of no bad side effects.
