Cutting my first cycle short
So I am gonna cut my first cycle short at about 6 weeks. This cycle was pretty much taken as a bulking cycle diet wise. Gear using is 500mg test cyp a week and 100mg tren ace every day. Tren has only been used since week 2 of the cycle. I have good gains in strength and size but inevitably added a 2% bodyfat in going from 195 to 220. I am ending so I can run a cutting cycle early into the summer. Other reasons for ending are the concerns of receptor downregulation and total shutdown. I feel that for a first cycle I have gained alot of insight and don't wanna do too much too soon. I pinned my last dose of test cyp tuesday evening at 5:30pm and am well aware of the long half life. I am running the tren until Friday and was also wondering if I should step down the dose before discontinuation. I am on arimadex since last week at .5mg EOD to keep water retention down. My post cycle plans are to continue with the arimadex and take my nolvadex two weeks after my last test dose. I also have birth control of my girlfriends on hand in case things get too desperate. I basically would like some feedback on this plan and any suggestions that would help augment my pct success so I can prepare for my next cycle. Also what's the likelihood from others experience of dosages like mine on test and tren with regards to shutdown.
