    First Cycle Review/log...

    Well after weeks of planing and getting everything I need together(almost) I am going to run my first cycle. Info on me

    6'5
    215
    BF% don't know Ill try and post a pic if need. If i Had to guess right now at this moment 13-14%(Been bulking the last 4 weeks. With hardly any cardio at all.) I have been working out for 10 plus years. When I first join here I lost some weight(40lbs). Hole purpose of joining at the time. Now I am here. lol.

    Goals for this cycle I would like to put on some clean muscle/mass and get stronger. Bench now is 280 1r. After Bench workout. I would like to get 315 if at all possible.Just get bigger muscle wise. Also just want everything to go as smooth as possible.



    The cycle will be 12 weeks of..

    Test E 400mg Weeks 1-12 Pinning Mon and Thur
    HCG 250iu Weeks 1-12 " Same"
    Armidex .25 Weeks 1-14 Every other Day Starting with day two


    PCT will be just get back on TRT(Androgel at Two Pumps a Day.) Will start this at Week ten tho.

    This is my plan and I would like for you to see what you think. I Have a few questions. Starting the Androgel back up at week 10 is that ok? I just want to get that going back into the system before coming off the test e.

    My plan is get my BW done this week and first pin will be next monday. Just got a few odd and end things to finish getting this week. Got to order my pins today.

    Please help with cycle if you think something needs to be changed let me know. I am going to try and make this a log because I think it will help me out also. On sticking with it and getting more knowledgeable. Plus I can look back at this in the future if I ever decide to do anther one.

    Thanks EVERYONE.

    Your profile says 26yrs old 6'4" 205lbs and 5+ years training! now your post says 6'5" 215lbs and 10yrs training. Damn did you start training at 12? Something not quite adding up. Anyways everything looks ok, do t need to start androgel until after last pin. The testE half life is 7 days so level will stay elevated for 2 weeks after last pin

    Just got BW done. I will not get it back till probably sometime next week. That should be ok. As long as I know 6-8 weeks after my last test shot I am back to where my levels are today.

    Got to order a few things tonight or tomorrow.

    Is a test only cycle is that a pretty low cycle ?

    500mg is the protocol. Learn how to control E2 at 500mgs test then that will be the base for almost all stacks. Learn how your body reacts to that. A lot of vets have done many stacks, and now after it's all said and done they just do test because they found out that that's best for them. You just have to have goals in mind, and weigh the pro and cons of each cycle. Do I want to live a long healthy life or blast away all the time and take a chance of a early retirement

    I know 500 is the protocol. I have test e 400 so just to make it easy I am going to go with 400.

    Unless some vets think I should do 500 then I might switch it. If so how could I measure it out?

    nothing wrong with 400/week. it's a light cycle, and I wouldn't go lower, but if that is what makes you comfortable, you are good.

    remember with e/c it could take as long as a month to kick in. so don't get impatient. and if you do decide to bump the dose, remember THAT could take a few weeks to kick in. Best to just stay the course with these long esthers...............

    Just sitting here at work. Reading on here and thinking about my first cycle and still planing it some what. I am nervous and excited at the same time. I have asked a lot of question to a lot of yall(THANK YOU). I dont really know which I am more of either tho.

    I read a lot about gyno on here for some reason. Isnt that what we all take an AI for so we dont get it? Also read a lot about welts and knots after you pin. I would rather not have any of these issues.I guess I will see.... Hope it isnt to bad to where one cant walk or go to the gym. lol

    I would like for my first cycle to go as smooth as possible. Thats why I have been reading and asking questions.

    Cycle should start Monday I hope if the rest comes in. Syringes and Niddles.

    But for now I am just rambling at work board. Also I will update my cycle when I get it nailed down.

    There are many things that will help a smooth cycle. I will list a few that i have not seen mentioned(yet).

    What were your blood results? If you want a smooth cycle, you should know what your test levels are.

    Have you done research, and are you confident in your source? I am not asking who it is, just if you are confident that you will be getting quality gear.

    Everything is looking good. 400mg/w is more than enough, especially for your first cycle. My first i took 200mg/w and gained like 25lbs in 10 weeks. Only thing i would change that you asked about is starting your gel so soon. I would start that 2-3 weeks after last shot. It shouldn't be a problem since the Gel is fast acting, if im not mistaken.

    I would honestly do a nice PCT, wait 2-3 months and get my blood work to see if you even need TRT. I think its a little stupid to jump on TRT at 27, unless you had a low test problem.

    If after PCT you shoot back up to 700 Test on your blood work, what the hell is the point of TRT?? Just my opinion of course and what i would do in your situation.
