Hello people,
Long time lurker, first time poster.
So this is my first cycle;
I am 36 years, 6’ 230 pounds 22% BF. Working out for over 13 years,slow down in training in the past year due to slight injury..
I went on Deca (British Dragon) and Sustanon-250 (Malay Tiger) 10 Amp/1ml then when done with Sustanon I got Test Prop 100mg to finish with cycle. I do have Nolva and clomid on hand, did not take anything yet. The only thing I take are usual multi vitamins and fish oil etc.. My diet is VERY clean now no junk food. I eat fish, chicken veggies oatmeal, egg whites etc. 4-5 meals a day, Plus 1 protein shake in the morning one after work out and one at night (casein) at Plus a dose in the morning and evening of Complete Liver Cleanser (Enzomatic)
I pin 1cc each every Monday and Thursday. So far 4 pins. At first I felt great, lots of energy but not a very good night sleep. I forgot I could not drink so had 3 shots of Tequila one day (none since) not sure if it did naything dramitcly bad for me in a long run.For sleep problem I encountered that with Melatonin 10mg ( I have Lunesta but I felt depressed next day, took it one time) not sure if due to that or high dosage of Deca but I stopped either way and just take Melatonin.I have read a ton about British Dragon so not sure if the gear if ****ed or whatever.
My friend is on the same first cycle but different “brand” . He feels fine and horny like a monkey and me not so much (today only he felt depressed) My libido is gone, but I still get wood. I feel tired ( few nights of 6 hour sleep though) and fogy mind. After reading side effect I realized that I might be on too much of Deca or not enough Test, 1 to 1 ratio. So last night I decided to lower Deca to 400mg (2 pins @200mg) and keep my test the same 500mg a week. Today I feel better but no libido. From I read I might have too much Estrogen in my body and maybe taking Arimidex at half tablet .5 is the way to control it..I already have a kid but want to have more kids.Thus, the way Deca has worked for me I don’t think it will be good for me in a long run, so I want to stop taking it.
So here is my question and I am seeking your advice.
What I want to achieve now; The last thing I want to do is to be depressed and low on energy with no wood when I go on vacation. Not sure how severe it will be after cycle since this is my first time doing it. My first pin was Sep 4th I got 8 week cycle end Nov4th .Deca,Sustanon (10 Amp) then will take Test Prop I got 100mg/ml. I understand that I should start my PCT about 2 weeks after last pin,.I have vacation coming up Nov 24th 3 weeks after my last pin, Anyways I want to drop Deca all together, now last shot I dropped Deca to 400 from the 500 , then, gradually maybe go to 200mg next then cut it again in half then go Test only.
So my questions are:
• Can I ,or how bad and what is the “proper” way to drop Deca in mid cycle?
• I understand most people suggest Test E or C on Test only cycle, but I got Test Prop after I am done with Sutanon-250 am I still OK? I can get Test E or C not a problem if needed.
• Should I use Arimidex or Cabergoline or Bromocriptine during cycle?
• What the dosage of Test Prop, I was thinking 2cc a week, 1cc per shoot if I drop Deca all together?
• Will I be “OK” dropping Deca only 3 weeks after my last pin, if I go on Test only?
• Should I take Arimidex (or what to to Control E levels) while on Test only and what dose of both?
• Can I drink while doing PCT I will take Clomid, HCG,Nolva ?HCG realy needed?
• is Arimidex necessary to ad for PCT?
• I was also thinking adding supplements to PCT like Maca Gold Powder ,something with TCF-1 in (not sure what yet), maybe NO2,Vitamin B-6,Vitamin C 500mg, Folic acid,Chlorine Bitartrate,tyrosine,Phenyline.Basilcy fix/restore my body (mood libido) ASAP.Or anything else you guy recommend .
• How long for PCT regiment ?
As you can see I might be going over board with with PCT but I want to recover ASAP.
I do 1.5 HR a weight lifting 5 days a week and 20 minutes cardio sprints,pushing/;pull a sled 3 times a week.
So to summarize: My goal now is to get ripped/shred fat loose weight but still try maintaining muscle mass (15 pound lose in 2 month) I understand that Deca and Test cycle was not the best choice for it, but I am dumping Deca. Should I stop all together now and do PCT,or just keep on going on Test 8 weeks 10?
Or simply run lower Test 200mg a week (amount) and run it through vacation till Dec = 3month on Test then ?
(But then I will have to bring Test over the border/airport security If I go 3mont stright on Test..)
If I quit all of it now (do PCT)And shorter cycle does what?
How much of Test a week (how many weeks should I take for minimal recovery? Again my goal is I don’t want to have a limp dick and libido on vacation and be all depressed. Quiting drinking alcohol was not a problem while on a cycle but I want to on vacation and be “social” with friends.Spending too much $$ on it and only go once year with the family. I was not thinking about the after effect cof ycle can have on me, thanks to this board I got educated, well here I am now. If it was not for vacation I would not care and deal with it.
Sorry for a winded post, but I figure this is what this forum is for and hopefully others in the future can dif this up and find their answers. So I turn to your expert advice.
Thank you for all replies in advance.
