1st cycle was BAD / 2nd cycle???

[tyrell]

I started my very 1st cycle about a month and a half ago:
30mg dbol ed
400mg deca ew
250mg sustanon ew
10mg nolva ed

2 weeks in, I developed horrible chest pains, very fast heart rate, coulbnt sleep, thing just began to go south fast. I made the decision to stop everything then and there. I felt like dying for about 2 additional weeks and then began improving, slowly but surely. A month and a half later, I feel that I am back to 100%.

I feel that I just got on too many steroids for my frst cycle. What do you think? Gained 10lbs within 2 weeks.

My stats:
6'1"
195lbs (was 183lbs)
good diet
train 6 days/week
12% body fat
23 years old
training (seriously) for 1\2 year

Here's the question.

Should I attempt a second cycle. A better suited cycle of course. I was thinking dbol only for about 5-6 weeks. No more than 40mg a day, starting at 10mg a day the first week and building up from there.

Well the general rule of thumb is, first cycles should be test only, exactly for your reason, to see how u react to the steroid.

Im sure ppl with more experience will elaborate on this.

Search the forums dude there is alot of good information on there. I would not do a d-dol only cycle either if I were you because its hard on your liver and you will lose most if not all of your gains due to water retention.


If I were you I would not even be considering a cycle.
you should be making steady gains 6 months is not long at all to be training.
if your still not making progress check your diet. we have a great diet forum here post your diet for others to critic.

Dude: way too many compounds for #1. It's good advice to stick to a single-e test for the first one......if I'm not mistaken, sust has 4 test compounds and then you have deca and dbol and Tamox. You can't tell what is messing with you when you do so many compounds. Stick to test-e or c or prop if you like to shoot EOD or ED and maybe throw the dbol in there as well. I took the tamox throughout but it is still another compound and can cause various sides. Keep it simple.

its rare that any of those symptoms actually arose from the AAS themselves, especially w/ the doses u were runnin being on the low end of the spectrum.. sounds more like a cross of anxiety attaks + stress.. possible placebo effect of aas inducing unforseen sides.. lots of people have issues ilke this when starting something new.. i.e. new job, new living environment, breaking up w/ a chica.. or wat ever..

First cycle is very intense/fun mentally and physically but do you agree with me that the more substances, the more possibility of random sides? It's really his first cycle and I think it would be best to limit the number/amount of AAS. PCT and anti-gyno alone can add a couple of weird sides: HCG, Nolva, Clomid, clen.......... I agree with Tai that your sides were probably mostly pshychosomatic but you have a lot of time to run cycles and learn proper PCT. AND.....you can give us positive feedback about your experience with simple cycles. Believe me, 5-600mg/wk test-e and a little dbol at the beginning will be a HUGE first cycle.

well yeah some people get 0 sides off tren while others die on tbol.. so who knows what will do what to who... best to take it 1 at a time in that scenerio.
a good guy on this forum bask8case posted bout low dose cycles i.e. 250mg/wk of test only and getting amazing results. so yeah who knows really lol
