Most of the advice in his post is garbage. Test only cycles are a big waste of time and arimidex is going to hinder any gains you may have gotten in the first place. He should be taken out behind the shed for posting such terrible advice.

Ok, while not advocating death for another member, is a low dose (10mg) of Nolvadex recommended to run on a first cycle instead of Arimidex ?

Nolva is fine. It only blocks estrogen at the receptor sites. Unlike arimidex it won’t stop aromatization from happening. Estrogen is extremely anabolic so why anyone would want to stop it is beyond me.

Because people still believe correlative bullshit from the 70s-80s. To be fair though, we’re just now finally starting to see good RCTs on various estradiol mediated stuff.

For an interesting listen, check my most recent post in the newer podcast thread. It’s about an hour and a half of Broderick Chavez, Lyle McDonald and Alex Kikkel tearing apart all of the nonsense about estrogen.

I’d be very interested to give that a listen. Can you give me a link?

Austinite is bigger than you future chump. No clue where you got the audacity to insult a staff member on a thread that is 6 years old. Protocols change.

Don't forget about your two failed cycles and embarrassing stats punk.

Stay small kid.

Windex, I agree and to your point about protocols changing - can you reference a more up-to-date info about AI on cycle? Maybe it's just to have it available or to use as needed. I have spent the last few months reading on here prior to signing up. I referenced that I have previously used AAS 18+ years ago, so I'm, somewhat getting a re-education. PCT seems mostly the same as from years ago.
