36 years old... first cycle... do i have all my bases covered??

[knifehead]

36 years old
5'11"
200 lbs
13.5% bf
been lifting consistantly 4/5 days a week for the last 2 years. diet is clean and spot on (40p/30c/30f). havent worked cardio into program yet although ive gone from 18% bf to 13.5% with diet and training alone.. have a good solid base and have been doing my homework in starting aas.

please let me know how this looks and if i've covered all my bases or am missing anything.

planned cycle:
week 1-12 test cyp (400mg/500mg a week depending on how its dosed pinned every mon. and thu.)
week 1-12 L-dex (.25mg ed)

pct: to start 18 days after last pin
nolva 40/20/20/20
clomid 100/50/50/50

i am also running propicia throughout cycle..( been on for 9 years at first signs of mpb and STILL retain 95% of my locks.. its been a miracle drug for me! no sides at all!) also going to add nizoral for topical dht blocker. hopefully this will be enough to combat any progression while on cycle.

i plan on feeding every 2 hrs while on cycle(i feed every 3 now) and starting cardio for the first time (in the am on an empty stomach). training will stay the same (1 bodypart a day 5 days a week).

how does this look??
should i start the anti-estrogen 2 weeks before cycle? i dont think im gyno prone but i want to be safe??

thanks for helping me out.

anyone have any input or does everything look ok???

I will bump this for someone that knows more than I do but looks pretty solid. Some guys might say 12 weeks is a little long for first cycle with 12 being at the upper end of the range but prob not overkill. I have read that anti-estros will limit your gains and I believe that if your not pron your might want to play it by ear. Like I said hopefully someone with more experience will chime in for you.

I ran a similar cycle (test-e) recently for 12 weeks and had great results. I did not run the ldex from the start I just had it on hand in case of any possible gyno flair up. So from my limited experience you do not need to run it from the get go unless you are gyno prone but definately have it on hand.

not exactly sure if im gyno prone??? ive read that running L-dex at such a low dose wouldnt prevent gains?? guess id rather be safe than sorry.

[knifehead]

what were your gains cobra?

[cobra305]

I started at roughly 191lbs 15% bf I am currently 205 and 11-12%. I did get up to 208 but was carrying somw water weight. I also did cardio 5 days a week for 45 min. I was pleased with my results, I wanted to add lean muscle and reduce bf%.

Looks solid. Love the use of the word "feed" lol good luck enjoy it man. Nothing feels quite like the first time

[knifehead]

anyone else before i let this thread die?

Run the adex throughout. It takes about a week for it to become stable. I always start it up a week before i cycle.


Also have letro on hand. If you do get gyno adex wont do shit for you once you have it.

[knifehead]

so arimidex only helps prevent but if gyno occurs it wont help??? guess ill get letro just incase then.... thanks for the info c man

[axemurderer187]

looks good to me, should be quite effective being your first time.

[C-MaN]

Ya it prevents but if you actually get gyno then you got to bring in the letro. It actually penetrates the fat cells and reduces estrogen. It's 95-98% effective. I got gyno and with letro on hand i was able to get rid of it.

[knifehead]

were you running l-dex when you got gyno???

[C-MaN]

Yep. I was running adex at .25 EOD

[knifehead]

damn! how long until the letro knocked it out??

[C-MaN]

on the 5th day. I always have everything on hand for worst case scenario situations
