Question about Test dosing...

[thehighlife06]

I plan on running my first cycle soon. Test enan only. I want to run the lowest dose I can for my first cycle. So I was planning on just running 250mg a week, one shot every Monday for 12 weeks but as for side effects, which I don't know how my body will respond to yet (one of the reasons I want to start low) would it be better to run 250mg every fifth day instead to keep hormone levels more stable? Obviously that would be more test then 250 a week but it would also be less then the usual mon morning, thur evening 500 a week split. So I guess that's my question.... 250 every mon or every fifth day to guage how my body will react to test at a low dose?

Thanks for any replies, much appreciated.

im in the same boat (first cycle coming up) i was worried about sides with test e so ive decided to go with prop because the sides are not as bad and if you do get sides with it you can stop taking it and they will go away alot quicker then with test e. with my test e i was told to start on 300mg a week split into two doses and step it up to about six. but as i said im going to start with prop and maybe change over later on in cycle.

make sure you have a good pct thats first thing experenced guys are going to ask you.

not sure if that helps but bump anyways

test prop is great stuff if you dont mind ed or eod injections. Side effects are usually really low. I really had none. Just small breakouts of ance. Id never of noticed it if I wasnt looking. But watch out some prop can be very painful.

No no no no ....
Test prop is not advised for a first timer...
As he said, he wanna see how his body reacts to test, so better start with long ester.
Test E has a halflife of about 8 days so it has to be injected every 4-5 days to keep blood levels as more stable as possible. So shot it every 5th day as you were thinkin about.

I like the idea of once or twice a week injections for my first cycle to get used to them which is why I went with enanthate before jumping into ed and eod inj's. Plus I already have my 250mg test e amps anyways. I have enough amps to run 250 every fifth day for 12 weeks so it's either that or every monday for me and I'll have some extra amps for next time.

As for PCT, I was just going to run 20mg Nolva and 20-25mg Aromasin for four weeks.

[ChuckLee]

Start pct 10 days after last injection and IMO you should take 40mg of nolva the first week. May add 50mg Clomid too for three weeks.

I believe he is referring the the "first week" as the first week of PCT, don't want to start throwing in anti-e's into the cycle, it will cut your gains.

yeah... it might effect gains a little. its always a good rule of thumb to have the anti-e's on hand just incase ya need them. but for that matter, you should always make sure you have your pct BEFORE you start the cycle

[thehighlife06]

Yeah I'm aware of starting pct 10-14 days after last inj and I have plenty of Nolva/Clomid and a bottle of Aromasin. I just read good things on this board about the nolva/aromasin combination for pct while avoiding clomids side effects, I could easily add it though. Guess I'll be going with every fifth day and considering whether or not to run clomid during pct as well or not. Thanks guys.
