First Cycle has begun...

Started my injections on Friday, I'll be keeping this thread updated as things progress. I want to thank everybody on the boards' for all the help, I could not have educated myself without the resources this site has to offer. I'll be trying to post some pre-cycle photo's shortly, we'll see if I can get them up or not.

Injection Notes:
After breaking the skin, there was little or no pain. I suffered from extreme light headedness and dizziness, and was not able to finish the injection myself as I began to feel nauseous and dizzy and felt their was a high chance I was going to pass out. A friend finished it for me. The injection was also accompanied by profuse sweating on my part, to the degree that when the injection was concluded, I would describe myself as “soaking wet”, I felt like I had just gotten out of the shower. There was also an intense feeling of physical and mental fatigue after I had finished the injection.

Second Injection was administered at about 2:30 P.M.

Good luck with the cycle bro, what are your goals?
Welcome to the darkside!
I sweat a lot too on my first inject.

Jag,

Fina wasn't my first choice as a steroid to stack with test, and is probably not the best choice for a first cycle. However, where I am, procurring gear has been really difficult, and the Fina was something that I readily had access to. Not only that, but right now, I'm 164 lbs, and at no point during this cycle do I want to be over 180 lbs, as there are certain weight cut off's in my line of work that I have to stay within. So, I didn't want something that was going to make me retain a lot of water. On top of that, I have a friend who I train with that just finished running an eight week cycle of the same Trenbolene that I have, he didn't have any trouble with it, just told me to drink lots of water and get some ALA, milk thistle and cranberry extract, as it's a well known fact that Fina isn't particularly friendly to your kidneys. He had really good results with it, and is a relative novice at this stuff, just as I am. Anyway, I really appreciate your concern, that's what I like most about this site, their are real people here with knowledge that want to see you achieve your goals in the safest way possible.

Thanks again,

Taejoon

I want to hit 180lbs, and stay lean and hard, as I am now. Preferably just a slight amount of water retention. I'm also hoping the extra test in my system will help with some nagging injuries that have been hampering me for the last year or so.

Went to the gym yesterday, haven't lifted in 4 weeks, which is a long time for me to be out of the weight room. Didn't feel anything unusual in the way of pumps or strength yet, but then again I've only had two injections, my third one will be today. Anyway, here's what my workout routine looked like for yesterday...

You are gonna look awesome at 180, keep us posted on your progress and diet, im specially interested on fina/test comb.

Nothing to extraordinary to report, been eating like a horse, finished my first week of lifting and I'm up 5 lbs from 164 to 169. Back in the gym tommorrow, haven't noticed anything in the way of strength gains or intense pumps yet, my first inject was June 13th, so it'll probably be another week or so before I notice anything. I'll keep you guys posted...

Peace

-Taejoon

Fina EOD, 1.5cc @ 75mg/ml
Test 2 times weekly @ 200mg/injection

Lookin good bro.
Got a good base to start with.

Keep postin.

HP

Fina/Test...hmmm...What do you expert say...I can get them both..hmmm...my winter cycle..hmmmm...hehe!!

I wish I was as organized as you bro, your gonna do great on that cycle, Shit if you skipped the cycle all together and killed the diet like you are, you'd make huge gains too

Finally starting to notice consistent discoloration in the urine, I'm up 6 pounds all together (First inject was June 13th), haven't noticed any water retention, my recovery time is just barely getting better and I seem to have more and more energy every day, even though my sleeping has gone to shit. My appetite is off the charts, I've never eaten like this before at anytime in my life, much less thought about food like I have the last 3-4 days. It's seems like I'm still getting hungrier every day. Haven't noticed any considerable gains in strength or pumps, maybe just slightly last night when I was working my legs, but nothing considerable. It's like I can sense my body is about to change, it just hasn't fully happened yet. So far I like what's been happening to me, with the exception of my lack of being able to sleep. No acne to speak of yet, my face is perhaps a bit more oily than usual, but nothing severe. My morning erections are lasting longer than usual, they're also harder, but I think the Fina is keeping the extra Test in my system from turning me into a horny freak. Well, that's all I know for now...

Peace
