the time has come

**lowell34** · 06-04-2002, 02:03 PM

After 17 years of doing it natural, the time has come to dive into the deep end of the AS pool. Many thanks to the guys on this site who have given advice and taken the time to PM me.
I got my goods today, will start cycle on 6-9-02. I'll try to remember to post my exact weight on that day. Here's the cycle I ended up with (notice it has once again changed):

Weeks 1-4
dbol 35 mg/day

weeks 1-10
Sus 600 mg/week (**Sus 300)
Deca 400 mg/week

Of course I have the Novadex and Clomid.

Having the gear waiting reminds me of how it felt to be a kid waiting the last few days until Christmas. Hell, I think I've gained 4 or 5 pounds just looking at the stuff.....

welcome bro your cycle looks pretty good
just a little advice take or not is up you bro
i want to share this with you i'm in the same boat
of age, i did 25mg and gained 8lbs after 2.5 wks,
you on the other hand may want to go up your dose
to 45 or 50mg you'll get better results,
i wished i knew this before i would done at 50mged
D-bol is pretty good bro good luck later..

Hey, are you my long lost twin? Actually my birthday is 5 months before yours but I was in the exact same boat as you a little over a year ago. Trained naturally from the time I was 17-18 and decided to reseach AAS. After 8-12 months of reading and interacting, I decided to try it. My first was deca @ 400mg/week x 10 weeks and winstrol depot @ 50mg/EOD x 6 weeks (clomid of course). I'm now on my 3rd cycle and I'm learning more and more everyday. BTW....my wife recently finished her first ever cycle as well (anavar @ 15mg/day x 10 weeks)

It's even better the day it arrives. My eyes were as big as saucers and I wore a shit eating grin for the rest of the day. BTW....that feeling never goes away.

Thanks for the input REM, but here's my logic..... Since this will be my first cycle, I want to establish a baseline So, I'm starting with a solid cycle but a little on the light side. If my results are only fair with the 35 mg/day of dbol I will know to up the dose next time. If, on the other hand, I took 50 mg a day and got good results, I would have no idea if I could have received the same gains at a lower dose.
I was even tempted to start with 200 mg Test/wk, 200 mg Deca /wk, and only 20 mg of dbol/day to really establish my body's reactions to AS but the guys here made it pretty clear I would probably be very disappointed with the end results.
So....That's how I ended up with the doses.

Hey Pete235, If the 235 refers to your bodyweight, we are closer to twins than you think. I hit the scales at exactly 235 this am (down from 245 a few weeks ago). Dieting and cleaning the old system out in preparation.
Yes, the smile is hard to get off my face.

lowell,
congrats bro, and welcome to the big boy side of town.
remember, keep yourself focused throughout your cycle, eat well, train hard and get rest on your off times. since this is your first, get as much out of it as possible. good luck, and keep us posted.............

Thanks guys. It's nice to be able to share this experience with others who've been there.

Hey wouldn't it be better to throw in some anavar instead of d-bol. For guys over thirty isn't it the best to use or not?

**lowell34** · 06-07-2002, 02:22 PM

Not for what I want. The Anavar won't give me any size. If I add anything to the cycle it will be Winstrol for weeks 8-12. That's starting to sound really good to me.
