Greetings all. I am a 44 year old male that hits the gym hard daily. I am interested in doing a cycle but never have before. I have a friend that tells me to take a cycle of testp stacked with Tren . Should I just take the test alone if it is my first cycle ever?

Welcome to the board man! IMO and I think most will agree, it's best to keep it one compound starting out. This will give you a chance to see how your body reacts to it and see if you are comfortable with it. If you run more then one compound and start having issues, its harder to pinpoint the problem. Do you have any idea what ester you want to run? Tren is not a good compound to start on lol.. It can be pretty harsh..Keep it simple!

My buddies tell me to take TestP. Is this a good one to start? Do I have to take anything else with it? Is my age relevant?
Thanks in advance.

I would stick with a long ester like test c or e. But you really need to do a lot research here before thinking about it. You need an AI, hcg on cycle and have a proper pct set up for after. Read austinite first cycle sticky and that should clear up a lot questions.

Read this post from front to back a few times, it should give you a solid plan.

Welcome Joe

I love test p. Test p requires pinning every other day. Longer esters like test e you can pin twice a week. It's all personal preference there. My first cycle was test p and I got familiar with pinning pretty quick! IMO age is only a number( that is if you are in good health) unless you're too young. At 44 your endocrine system is developed and ready to roll...hopefully! I would recommend getting blood work done so you can keep an eye on hormone and cholesterol levels. Make sure you have everything you need including PCT and knowledge before starting. It can be a great experience or a crappie one. Don't let it be crappie due to poor planning!
