First-time cycle - Test+Deca

[jh90210]

Hi, I've got a cycle planned but am trying to get an idea of how conservative or risky it is in terms of side effects.

I'm 41 years old, 5'9", 182, with bodyfat of ~11-12%. I've been training for 10+ years, and have been plateaued for 8 of them, at current weight plus or minus 7-8 pounds, and bodyfat +/- 2% for that whole time, with those fluctuations depending mostly on how clean my diet is and how much sleep I'm getting.

I'm ready to do my first cycle; am working with a doctor's recommendation. Goals are to add 10-15 pounds lean body mass, while keeping bodyfat percentage no higher than it is today. Diet-wise, I've got a diet scoped to do 2,500 calories/day (275g protein, 220g carbs, 60g fat), eating clean 6 days a week with one cheat day. Training is 4-5 times per week, no major cardio planned.

Schedule is as follows:
- Mon: Test C/E (250mg)
- Tue: Deca (200mg) + B12 (1mg)
- Wed: Anastrazole (1mg)
- Thu: Test C/E (250mg)
- Fri: Deca (200mg) + B12 (1mg)
- Sat: Anastrazole (1mg)

Totals per week are:
* Test C+E - 500mg
* Deca - 400mg
* B12 - 2mg
* Anastrazole - 2mg

I'm ordering everything through a pharamcy; PCT is still to be determined with the doc who's helping me.

This is my first time; I want to keep it very safe & conservative with minimal risk of side effects so would like a sense of whether it fits that description.

How long you plan on running it and why not pin every on day same pin? Pct is as important as the cycle as far as recovery and keeping gains

For your first cycle I would only do test so you can get introduced to AAS and you would get nice gains too

I missed that Marcus (dam it) yes op run test only for first go around. Keep deca for maybe 2-3rd cycle

Planned for 8-10 weeks, depending on how it goes. Still working on setting the PCT.

Pct is going to make or break what you gain. Better have everything planned before starting. I wouldnt run test any less than 10wks. I agree test only for 1st cycle.

^^^ That. The way you have it scheduled is poor at best, unless you like pinning and crashing your estrogen. If this doc put it together for you kick him in the nuts as he's lost. PCT to be determined? BS! I guess he forgot HCG while on cycle to keep your testies functioning, but hey it's just a minor detail.

Your doc does not understand hormones or cycling. Print out the above link and show it to him for your own good. If he dismisses it, run.
