Novice Here
I know this might sound dumb, but Ronnie seems to be the man who could answer this question and make me understand.
(I know im young and stuff but i just wanna get out of doubt)
What would be the best first cycle for someone like me?
160 lbs 15%bf, lifting for about 2 years.
I just wanna geat up to 190, not that bulky but maintining the gains.
I wanna run a safe first cycle but I dont know what to look into.
Rest, training and diet are already in check, I would just need advice in what substances will deliver better results since it's my first cycle.

05-05-2012, 07:29 PM #3927Well, just came off my last cycle ....1000mgs Test E, 500mgs Deca , 1000mgs Tren E and 125mgs Var . Went from roughly 230 and dropped to 215!!! Doesnt seem like I lost to much muscle mass, just lost alot of body fat. Just wasnt expecting that big of a drop in body weight? Im cutting the deca this next cycle , running 1500mgs Test E, 1200mgs Tren E and 125mgs Var /daily. My energy levels are horrible, you suggest I run some T3 with this one as well? Ive got just a little bit of stubborn fat towards the lower portion of my belly and love handles, nearly gone. Think the T3 may help. Running those kind of higher dosages are going to make you feel tired as steroids are drugs which have side effects. Adding 35-50 mgs of t-3 every night will help aid in getting rid of that stubborn lower belly fat given you are doing cardio and eating a diet low in carbs/fats and high in protein. You lost a lot of water weight when coming off thatlastr reload and at this point you could deload with 500 mgs of test-e weekly instead of 250.

For example; the bible teaches that jesus turned water into wine and said drink and be merry (just for the record i do not drink alcohol anymore nor do i condone a lifestye of drunkedness which is the abuse of alcohol but i do not judge others who do so). now during the prohibition it was man (government and a fairly cooked one at that that made alcohol illegal). Now did that mean during that era that it was now sinful in gods eyes for those who drank illegally but it was okay for those in other countries to drink if it was still legal? That would make no sense at all! And would it mean that since our government has once again legalized alcohol it's not a sin anymore to drink. My point being is that man (crooked/messed up goverment) made steroids illegal back in the 80's not GOD so I do not see it as a sin if used properly.Unfortunately our goverment continues to make poor decisions which have a negative impact on everyone's well being." /QUOTE]ABOVELast edited by Ronnie Rowland; 05-08-2012 at 07:12 PM.

Hey big Ron I just wanted to give a big thank you for all your help through questions you answered specifically for me and ones that I read through other peoples questions. Thanks to you and fireguy and my dad/coach I was able to win first place in at the Charlotte cup in junior men's bodybuilding and take the overall! It far exceeded my expectations and ended up canceling my plans to do the palmetto cup this weekend because I would have to move into men's open light heavies already I had planned to use the first show as a learning experience and do the juniors again this week. Without your sound advice on how to handle aas on my first cycle last year and my cut for the show this year I don't feel I would have done this well. So again I just want to give you a big thanks and if your ever around the Charlotte area me and my boy slim shady owe you a dinner for all your help! Been trying to convince him to compete in a few months no luck so far. Here's a pic just for the hell of it after prejudging let me know if you see any specific weak points I should focus on big Ron.

I've heard a lot of talk lately about guy's running Test at way lower doses than Tren , saying let the Tren do the work. They say the Test uses up all the receptor sites and it wastes the Tren. I've always used more test ( like say a gram) compared to 525-700 Tren. What are your thoughts on this? I don't suffer from sides (nothing I can't handle) from the Tren and I want to get the most out of it, but if this theory is a myth I'd just as soon leave the Test higher. Thanks Ron.

I don't know about the receptor part but as for the sides it helped me greatly. I got the trensomnia and anxiety running 500mg Test and 200mg Tren . Dropped the Test to 250 and the sides are gone! Still losing fat like crazy and getting stronger. I am slowly upping the Tren to 400mg, at 300 right now and the sides are still not there. I am seeing some remarkable changes.
I'd also like to see Ron's answer to your question but I think running your Test lower is definitely a viable option for people that get the sides with Tren.

I respectfully disagree Ronnie,
If something is illegal in your country, then the bible says to obey the laws of the land, so therefore it's a sin to go against those laws, hence you will get a fine, jail etc for breaking those rules, for example, if the law states in Australia the max speed I can do is 110, and go to Germany on the autobahn, rent a porsche, I will definitely not do 110km/h and I will not be 'sinning' as I haven't broken any rules!
This is where conviction comes into play!! If I believe, that it's a sin no matter what to take steroids than I am convicted to stay true to that conviction anywhere I go!
But if I was born in a country where steroids are not illegal, than it isnt a sin, but if I come to Australia and continue doing them, I am going against the laws of the land and therefore sinning, what ur kind of doing is expressing how u view the bible not by what it actually says

Thanks Ron. A definitive answer from a leading authority. Just what this board needed. I suspected as much...

FIRST OF ALL COMMITTING VARIOUS SINS IS NOT WHAT KEEPS ONE OUT OF HEAVEN ACCORDING TO THE BIBLE. THE ONLY SIN THAT WILL KEEP ONE OUT OF HEAVEN IS REJECTING JESUS CHRIST. IN THE STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA WHERE I RESIDE IT'S ILLEGAL TO HAVE ORAL SEX WITH YOUR SPOUSE. LIKE THATS GOING TO HAPPEN!? LOL..BUT IF WHAT YOU ARE SAYING IS TRUE THEN IT WOULD BE A SIN TO HAVE ORAL SEX WITH YOUR SPOUSE JUST BECAUSE SOME BUREAUCRAT IN WASHINGTON D.C. CAME UP WITH SOME LAME BRAIN IDEA JUST AS THEY HAVE WITH STEROIDS. THINK ABOUT THIS-WHEN GEORGE BUSH WAS IN OFFICE HE MADE IT ILLEGAL TO HAVE A PARTIAL BIRTH ABORTION. BUT WHEN OBAMA STEPPED INTO OFFICE HE LEGALIZED PARTIAL BIRTH ABORTION. DOES THIS MEAN IT'S OKAY IN THE EYES OF GOD TO HAVE AN ABORTION NOW SINCE ITS LEGAL YET IT WAS WRONG ONLY 3 YEARS AGO WHEN IT WAS ILLEGAL? WHOSE LAW IS RIGHT-GODS OR MANS? ALSO GOD NEVER SAYS USING STEROIDS IS A SIN!
I AM OF THE OPINION THAT GOD MADE SEX (ANYTHING BETTER HE KEPT FOR HIMSELF-NO PUN INTENDED) AND WANTS EVERY MARRIED COUPLE TO EXPERIENCE GREAT SEX ON A REGULAR BASIS INCLUDING ORAL SEX, ETC. ON AND ON I COULD GO WITH THESE CRAZY LAWS OF THE LAND THAT HAVE BEEN PUT IN PLACE BY MAN. THE BIG PICTURE IS THIS-NO ONE GETS TO HEAVEN BY OBEYING THE LAWS OF THE LAND OR EVEN GODS LAWS PER SE. ROMANS CHPT 3 VS 20-"THEREFORE BY THE DEEDS OF THE LAW SHALL NO FLESH BE JUSTIFIED IN HIS SIGHT: FOR BY THE LAW IS THE KNOWLEDGE OF SIN". JAMES CHPT 2 VS 10-"FOR WHOSOEVER SHALL KEEP THE WHOLE LAW AND YET OFFEND IN ONE POINT, HE IS GUILTY OF ALL". GOD PUT DOWN A STRICT LAW, THEN JESUS CAME AND MADE IT EVEN STRICTER TO SHOW US ALL THAT WE COULD NOT KEEP ALL HIS LAWS AND THAT WE ARE ALL SINNERS IN NEED OF A SAVIOUR. YOU CANNOT WORK YOUR WAY INTO HEAVEN BY GOOD DEEDS NOR BY AVOIDING A PARTICULAR SIN BUT SOMEONE WHO HAS BEEN BORN AGAIN BY THE SPIRIT OF GOD WILL LOVE GOD AND HIS NEIGHBOR AS I STATED IN THE LAST POST. I HOPE THIS HELPS AND I'LL END WITH THIS NOTE - In the state of S.C. where I live it is perfectly legal to beat your wife on the court house steps on Sundays.

The Great Oral Debate: Anadrol vs. Dianabol
By Gavin Kane
For many years, a great debate has raged over which oral is superior for mass gains, and two of them have stood the test of time; dianabol and anadrol. The debate has continued, arguing which of the two is superior, yet no conclusive evidence has proven one better than the other. People respond to each one differently, some swearing by dbol and some swearing by anadrol. Before we declare one the winner, I am going to go over a bit of history and chemical structure on both products.
anadrol (oxymetholone) was first made available in the 1960’s by Syntex. It is very effective at increasing red blood cell production and was promising for treating severe cases of anemia. With the advent of newer and more advanced drugs such as Erythropoietin, which have less androgenic side effects, anadrol was discontinued. New studies in AIDS/HIV patients revealed anadrol was particularly effective at reducing wasting symptoms so it was re-released in the late 1990’s.
Oxymetholone is a derivative of dihydrotestosterone, which in theory means it should not convert to estrogen. Since it does not aromatize but still causes gynecomastia in some users, there are other pathways by which it converts. After looking at studies on AIDS patients, I found that it may convert by actively activating the estrogen receptor, so this is a product that would need an anti-estrogen such as Nolvadex .
dianabol (methandrostenolone ) was first made in 1956 by John Zieglar of Ciba fame. dianabol has been one of the most por oral steroids of all time, exploding in pority in the 1970’s with bodybuilders and football players and expanding into all avenues of athletics during the 1980’s. It somewhat waned during the 1990’s with the steroid control act, but was hot again in the early 2000’s with reproduction in mass quantities by Mexican labs and underground labs.
Methandrostenolone is a derivative of testosterone and hence will convert to estrogen. gynecomastia will be a concern for sure, in almost all users, whereas only less than 25% have problems with anadrol. Again water retention will be a problem, usually due to the estrogenic properties.
Both products will have similar androgenic side effects, which include; acne, water retention, oily skin, male pattern baldness, and increased body hair growth. Both drugs are c17 alpha alkylated, therefore Liver protection will be necessary, especially when combining the two.
So we come to the premise of this article, anadrol vs. dianabol. Why, the great debate over which product to take? They work on different pathways, have similar side effects you will have to combat, and both are Liver toxic. So why is there a debate over which is better and which one should you take? Well, as I stated earlier, different people have different responses to each product. Many people, including myself, find high doses of anadrol to be too much to handle in trade of the results you get. With this product, I have an extreme loss of appetite, massive water retention, and overall aches and pains and headaches.
On the other hand, when I take dianabol, I get a general sense of well-being, good but not great size gains, and the ability to keep eating. It sounds like I should keep taking dianabol and drop the anadrol, right? Wrong. I get massive male pattern baldness from dianabol, which I do not experience from anadrol. I have an increase in blood pressure levels at doses that are high enough to match my gains from anadrol, and I have to shorten my cycles because of the massive dosages I take to get good gains. So in all, I get some side effects from each that I would like to avoid, while still retaining the great benefits that I can only get from each product.
anadrol is well known for its ability to cause massive size and strength increases, and as we all know, a stronger muscle has to become a bigger muscle with enough calories to feed it. dianabol gives me large, quality muscle gains without as much water retention as anadrol. So what is the compromise? Do I take one during one cycle and then the other product during my next cycle?
The answer is no to both. There is no need to short change yourself gains in either department when you can have your Cake and eat it too. I am not alone in my assessments of both products. Most guys have similar issues of massive water retention, headaches and loss of appetite with anadrol, and MPB and fewer gains with dianabol comparatively. So, the best thing we can do is decrease our dosages of both products to cut down on side-effects and take them at the same time to increase the benefits.
My recommendation is to take both products in lower dosages but for longer periods of time. dianabol has been found to work much better for quality gains when taken in lower dosages but for longer periods of time. High doses have severe side effects in some users, a loss of all gains with cessation of the product because of the short cycle (4-6 weeks) and most of the aforementioned side-effects.
Your dosages will be cycle history dependent but when I was at the peak of my career, I was taking cycles of 200mg dianabol for 6 weeks per cycle, or 250-300mg anadrol per 6 week cycle. In later cycles when I decided to combine the two products together, I was able to drop my dianabol use to 50mg per day, and my anadrol use to 100mg per day and because of the synergistic effect of the two products combined, the effect was similar to high doses of each but with none of the sides. There is something very synergistic when taking these two products together with just a simple cycle of testosterone and deca -durabolin .
I would run my anadrol cycles for 8 weeks at that dose and my dianabol cycles for 10 weeks at that low dose with no Liver toxic effects as proven by my quarterly blood tests. I did not have to take liver protectants, but I recommend them for most users. I no longer had to watch my blood pressure, my water retention was minimal compared to earlier cycles, and I was able to continue eating massive amounts of food because I did not experience appetite loss from a massive dose of anadrol.
I highly recommend on your next bulking cycle you try the following: A base cycle of test and deca, add in the anadrol and dianabol mix, and some Nolvadex. You will be able to control your water retention, Liver toxicity, and other side effects by controlling your dosages. Your doses will vary from mine, but just adjust accordingly and run them for longer periods of time. You will be amazed at the simplicity of this cycle and yet the synergy is un-describable. Your gains will be far better than you have ever had when taking each product alone, your side effects will be less than if you were to take either product in higher doses, thanks to the different biochemical pathways. Everyone already knows that test and anadrol, and deca and dbol are very synergistic. Now combine all four in a cycle and watch yourself just blow up.

Testosterone cycles only
Hi Ronnie, great thread, already on my 3rd time reading through it, you present info worth absorbing. And with all you've been through you are a real encouragement. I know you have answered this before, but mabye you can explain it to me so I understand it. I will be starting my 3rd reload in 2 weeks. I have used nothing but testosterone for the cycles. 1st one was 500mg, second 750mg, and for the 3rd it will be 1g. My question is can I continue to increase each time with test only, or is their a certain point where I should add another compound. I thought as long as you increase anabolics each reload you would continue to see results. Thanks in advance for any answer!!
-
Hey Ron, this last cycle I was running MENT (Acetate), Masteron P, NPP. A week before my deload I started adding 200 mg Test E Mon. and Thurs. It's the first time I've done a reload with all fast esters like this one. Usually I have either test Enth, Cyp or Sust, as a base, or run Prop for my deload at 350-525 mg. Anyway, WOW!!! Unbelievable how my strength dropped during this last week!! I was squatting 462 lbs for 6 reps on my first working set last week for instance. This week I knew I would have to drop the weight and go for high reps. I was doing my second warm up set at 375 lbs when I realized that like it or not, this was my first working set, not a warm up after all. Like I said, WOW!! I got 10 reps but just barely!!! Almost panicked was thinking about 1 ml of prop being afraid I'd waste away!! I haven't done that since I thought I'd wait to get your opinion on the subject. Like I said, I led the thing by a week and still felt like the rug was jerked out from under me. I'm wondering if this is cool or if you'd leave in say 400 mg of enth during future reloads, deload with prop or just do it like I have been?

Hey Ron,
I'm a new poster who's just started your Slingshot system for the first time. I love it so far, but I'm looking for some clarification. Please excuse the obsessive-compulsive nature of these questions! I'm fully aware of the fact that I can be overly nitpicky, but I just wanna make sure I fully understand the principles behind your program.
The first is in regards to the rep ranges you recommend for isolation exercises. You have compound exercises performed in the 4-6 range, 8-10 range, and 12-15 range. But for isolation exercises such as Bicep curls, your routine only includes sets in the 8-10 rep range. Is there a specific reason for this? I'm assuming that perhaps smaller muscles don't require such a varied range of attack for complete development?
And for future reference, I had a couple questions in regards to a Super-Blast cycle. You recommend focusing only on lower rep-ranges, IE: 4-6 for compound, 6-8 for isolation. But you would still up the rep-ranges during a deload (in conjunction with halving the sets, of course) on a Super-Blast, right? And if so, how high would you recommending going? IE: 6-8 for compounds, 8-10 for isolation?
Thanks!
