Second cycle recommendations post injury and crossfit included

[Mjs4799]

Hi all

165 lbs
30 years old
12 years of lifting experience (off and on)
Eat good
I now will be lifting 4-5xs a week
Eat good
Crossfit and cardio 3-5xs a week

I finished a test-e only cycle of 8 weeks at 500 a week for my first cycle 10 weeks ago. I am looking for a good second cycle plan. I still have enough test e for a new 12 week cycle but was looking for feedback on what to stack with it and a break down of how much to take for how long.

Goals are to get stronger/leaner if I gain 20 lbs that would be cool if I gain 5 but get ripped then that would be cool too.

Caveat; I was severely injured early last year by an explosion in Afghanistan. I was bed ridden for 3 months and lost 20 lbs and got weak. I didnt lose any limds but did suffer a TBI which has left my left side of my body a bit weaker than my right. Once I was healthy enough to start working out again I did. It was depressing to see how weak I had become. I got a bit over excited and ordered some test-e to help gain back what I used to have. Probably should have held off on the gear for a while but wanted a jump start. I feel I am in a healthy good state to move forward with round 2.

I have a good pct plan on standby already. I have been hitting the forums hard but can't decide a good plan. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

First off, thank you for your service, please don't take that lightly, but I'd just keep doing what you're doing for a while. Focus on diet, before you jump into another cycle.

Thank fck you're alive. In my personal experience, 8 weeks isn't adequate for Test E unless you're running at very high dosages. I just mentioned in another thread... Most of the Biggest, Strongest Guys I know only use Test at 500 mg a week, for 8-12 week cycles +PCT, maybe 2 or 3 times a year. Personally, I don't think it is necessary to use anything but test if a-you haven't done a correct Test only cycle yet, and b-if you aren't trying to be a pro body builder/juicing for the looks. I'd personally go with Test E or Cyp for 12 weeks at 500mg a week, AI on cycle, and pct. Save fckin around with stacks after you've mastered a Test only cycle.

Thank you all for your support. I really appreciate the advice to. it does sound like a good idea to just stick to another cycle of test E.
