First Cycle - Got Questions

[Fevershock]

Hey Guys,

I'm new to the site and have some questions. I'm running my first cycle of Test Cyp (400MG Per Wk) & Deca (200MG Per Wk). I'm 33 yr old, 5'11, 184lbs, 12% BF.

Diet is spot on with 200 grams plus of protein daily, or most days . I'm coming up on my 3rd week. What type of gains should I expect from this cycle?

Should I run this on a 8-10 week? Or 6-8 week? I'm prone to hair loss and do not want to hit the scalp too hard. The Finastride seems to be helping some.

Thanks for your feedback

From my point of view 10 weeks would be best. My last Test/Deca cycle was twice that long. Not that I think you should follow my lead, I just tend to err on the side of longer rather than shorter cycles.

Deca needs food to work. Look into this.

How much research have you done? Three weeks in isn't the best time to be asking questions. But not asking at all would be worse.

Thanks for the reply peump.

I'm eating every 2-3 hours, so I'm certain the Deca is getting food. I've done weeks of research prior to starting. I have my PCT and others items in case I get any side effects. Atleast I feel like I'm prepared ;-)

The reason I ask is because I've heard soooo many different answers on what I should expect. I've heard 25-30lbs, which I personally find to be a bit of a stretch. Then I heard 9-12lbs, which I was hoping I would fall somewhere in between.

Is that possible? Or is this hard to say since everyone is different?

Your deca dose is really mild the average dosage is 300-600mg weekly. Also you may adjust the cycle length to 12-14 weeks since is it has a long ester and usually you won't start seeing results until around week 4. If you run for 8 or 10 weeks you risk missing the biggest gains.

Im not sure how this will work with the hair loss.

aim for more protien
cycle length 12 weeks with deca, dose is too low for bulk. your running a cut dose imo
if you cahnge nothing i would expect you would see 10-20lbs on cycle (probably more like mid teens)

Ok, good stuff guys. Thanks for the feedback, I went the HRT route for my first cycle, thus the reason my Deca dose is so low. I was going to grab some more, but was afraid of what it would do to my hair line. I doubt he will prescribe me more before my cycle is up, doesn't hurt to ask :-)

I had never heard Deca needs food to work, but I knew that diet was crucial while on a cycle. I'll review my protein intake and adjust accordingly.

I was planning on running HGH at the end (1-2 weeks after 1st cycle) while cominng off. Do you guys think this I wise? Or should I chill for a month or more then start that?

i just want to say good luck,i remember my first cycle about 17 years ago.

[Fevershock]

Thx Anadroljack, any suggestions or things you would of done different?

[lil_herc81]

Good question. I would naturally ASSUME no because it still has an anabolic effect, but it is a hormone so I could be wrong in my thoughs! Now, HGH IS for advanced athletes and I would advise against. IMO if you are continuing this stack. bump the deca to at least 400mg. What is your PCT?

[Fevershock]

Lil Herc81,

i went with HCG and HCGenerate caps, Unleashed and Post Cycle. I think I should be good, I also got some pills for sides but I cannot remember the generic name

[lil_herc81]

Im not sure that im following correctly in your post you mentioned that you were considering HGH. Did you mean HCG? I know that HCG would be fine. HGH on the other hand I would question and leave for another person to verify

No, you had asked about my PCT and I was letting you know what I had in the way of post cycle products on hand.

The growth is something I am considering after the cycle, so your reply was right on point. I'm sorry, didn't mean to confuse....

[lil_herc81]

I have not saw any posts regarding the HGH so I started researching this. It appears as though you can still run HGH with PCT. Since HGH does not have anything to do with HPTA you will still need proper PCT. I cannot advise on any dosage but I did see that it is ran for quite a long time. Make sure you find the EXACT amount you need prior to injecting

Thanks Lil herc81

I'll certainly do my homework. Maybe post a thread on HGH intake and rules, I can also ask around. Thanks again for your replies and help.
