Second Cycle Help & Suggestions
Hi Guys,
Quick update on my current stats before i get to the question, and i apologize if its too lengthy, i would like to be as detailed as possible;
Age - 29
Height - 5 ft 7 in
Weight - 86 Kgs
Bf - ~18%
I was a obese kid who's been in an out of gyms since age 13, but been lifting "properly'' since age 18 when made my first proper transformation right as i discovered whey protein and fat loss pills
So a good decade of training experience with the occasional fallout every once in a while, but i've been consistent for the most part.
I can deadlift 3 x405lbs on most days (depends on my training plan) and Bench 10x225lbs -275lbs 1MR , Squat 10x 315lbs
All above mentioned are my CURRENT 'natty' stats since coming out of PCT 9 Months ago. Also lifting stats are without any spotters.
My first ever cycle was last year in May -
- 500mg of Test-e for 16 weeks
- Dbol 30mg for the first 4 weeks (this was not planned but taken on the advice of my dealer as he said the test will take a long time to kick in, which was true)
- Proviron 75mgs daily for the last 4 weeks (had some of the hardest of hard-ons and probably the most vein-iest i've ever been in my life during this phase)
- Letrozole (Took this during Week 1 and ended up bloating up like a balloon, and did not use it for the rest of the cycle, no other sides)
- PCT was 4 weeks including clomid, nolva and HCG
The goal of the above cycle was to break a plateau, which it did, and it was probably the best years of my life i would say, apart from gym performance , as i never felt so energetic, confident & motivated. I had ZERO side affects from the above cycle even after coming out of it (Except the occasional night sweats, and over sweating at gym, and pee smelling like the pee of a carnivorous animal for a period after each pin)
10 months later, eventhough i dont have the same level of motivation or endurance at the gym, i do have about 80+ % of the strength, and most of the size (which wasn't much tbh) i gained during that cycle,
So i'm Planning to start my 2nd cycle again in July;
- 250mg Test-e x 16 weeks
- 200mg Tren -e x Week 1 to 8
- MK677 25MG ED
- Letrozole in hand
- Same PCT protocol as cycle 1
I am a lifestyle lifter and not into competing or anything professional. The goal of this cycle is yet again to break plateau at the gym, along with trying to put on as much lean mass as possible while not having to count every grain of rice i eat for the worry of putting on fat. (I do count my Macros and calories to a certain extent)
With all this factored, is my second cycle decent, or does it need any changes? or any other compounds suggested?
Note - the brand of gear i'll be using is called Zendava. If this matters in any way?
Sorry again for this long post, Thanks in Advance!.

Stay far away from tren, need more experience before venturing into the dark side. here is a better suited cycle.
Week 1-12 500mg test e
week 1-4 anadrol 50mg
week1-14 hcg 500iu
week 14-18 clomid/nolva

Why tren ? It seems unnecessary. I'm doing 500mg test and 40mg of anavar as my second cycle. Strength has been exploding on that, seriously added like 70 pounds to my bench in a month. Not sure what my squat and deadlift are but they are exploding too. I hit 500 and 615 prior to the cycle and have added 30-40 pounds to my working sets while leaning out

so after some research, i am considering the following cycle
Week 1 to 8 - 500mg Test-E /week
Week 9 to 16 - 250mg Test-E /week
200mg Tren -E /week
Proviron 75mg ED
Metformin 500mg ED (after a post workout carb meal, this is mainly to reset my insulin receptors)
a PCT protocol that includes hcg , clomid and nolva.
Thoughts on this?

Do you suggest i run Tren E for longer? like 12 weeks?

I think you should run tren ace for that time period. Especially since you're already going to be 8 weeks shut down on test before you even start your tren (according to your second idea).

The 5x thing is sort of a misconception that is true on paper, the androgenic /anabolic scale. The scale also says anavar is 3-6x more anabolic than testosterone . In reality, mg for mg, test is going to build more muscle.

Would this apply even with low dose NPP or would that be OK to cycle with test? I'm not using anything but Test-E & DHT based AAS on this 1st cycle I am on but I'd like to try some additional oils with test on my 2nd cycle. NPP and Primo are on my interest list at the moment.

I'm not going to pretend like I know the exact answer for you so maybe someone more experienced will chime in but here's what I've gathered from MPMD: 19nors shut you down hard (tren especially) compared to other AAS and can keep you suppressed for a long time even on small doses where recommended PCT's like 2 weeks off 4 weeks drugs isn't going to touch the outlined cycle that's ending with tren. He'd probably still be suppressed for months after he ends his cycle. How long is dose dependent. I know MPMD has said it should be 5 half-lives before beginning PCT but I think there is some disagreement with that. I would ASSUME NPP wouldn't be as bad as traditional deca but I don't know. I think primo would be a much better choice for your 2nd cycle.

thx for the info I knew tren shut people down but I didn't know it applied to all 19nors so that is good to know. Makes me think I will stay away from them until the point I decide to do TRT or blast & cruise instead of cycle.

Sound advice!
If I could just add to your great explanation, trenbolone enanthate has a half life of 7-10 days but what many people do not make account for is the depot site dwell time.
When you inject certain carrier oils they will take time to start to release the drug into the local blood vessels the depot is situated to.
Then once in the blood the esters are cleaved gradually from the compound they are attached to, releasing the active compound where it can work on the receptors of cells, tissue, enzymes and other hormones.
This can add a significant amount of time to that required for pct to commence and be effective.
Some who use nandrolone with the decanoate Ester at the common 400-600mg dose range, regardless of the carrier oil used, would expect the nandrolone to be active for up to 56 to 84 days.
With this knowledge you would be best to stick to short esters and also to drugs with quick release carrier oils.Last edited by Lethal Hamburger; 07-12-2021 at 08:25 PM.

I run long esters exclusively and front load and have never had an issue. There’s certainly a time and place for short esters (tren specifically in case you need to bail from sides) but I definitely prefer long
I also don’t like short esters pinning cycle and prefer to run my gear lower and longer
To each his own…
