    2nd cycle advice

    Did my first cycle based on the first cycle thread on these forums and results were AMAZING.

    I’m looking to start my second cycle 500mg test e a week, with hcg , and I want to add something that will make me look more vascular and have that dry shredded look. I’ve looked into winstrol but it’s bad for your joints and drys you out. any other good options

    age:29
    weight:170
    BF: 11%
    training: 6 years
    diet: flawless always on point

    One thing you will learn is that not everyone reacts the same way. Winstrol is a good option. The symptoms are dependent on the person AND dosage. I compete and use winstrol during prep.
    With that being said, another option is masteron . I really love this in the cycle. IMO you need to be using about 600 mg/ week to get the results you are looking for. Once again, you need to see what works for you.

    Fair I’ll take both into account, I’m not competing so I try to stay away from the really harsh compounds. Would anavar suffice? from what i’ve read it’s basically a step down for winstrol but does the same effect

    Charger is spot on with masteron , you’ll be need to be single digits though for any of them to really shine. Need to keep the water weight off, could use Var, primo, mast or Tren .

    How tall are you?

    170 at 11% invokes some questions. Diet will be what puts you over more than the compound

    In addition to the increased vascularity, I find that winstrol seems to add a very palpable muscle definition/hardening effect and also a strength boost.

    I feel that masteron basically only added vascularity and none of these other things for me personally. Still a lot of competitors swear by it, however I dont compete Im a gym bro.

    If you can afford anavar , its fantastic, just not as strong as winny. The last I used winny though, it did a number on my joints whereas Anavar had the exact opposite effect and ameliorated my joint pain.

    I’m 5’10. I appreciate your advice and I’ll dig deeper into researching masteron . As for the anavar , you said you liked it, better then winnie I’m guessing? There’s one reason why I’m scared to do winnie and it’s because I tore my rotator cuff about 6 months ago and have been slowly bringing it back up to normal again. I don’t plan to do my second cycle for another 4 months, but I’d still rather be safe then sorry and do not want to injure it again. I don’t have to be CRAZY cut, but I’d like for some veins to stick out. Will anavar do it for me? I am a gym bro like you and don’t need to look stupid shredded. My genetics aren’t vascular to begin with, that’s why i’m looking to get there with a little extra boost and proper diet.

    Thanks for the advice I’ll take all of that into account and start researching each of the compounds you listed and see if they suite my needs. Not gonna lie, everyone said don’t run tren your second cycle, what’s your opinion on that? I was debating running it at 50mg a week along test.

    Thanks I will be looking into mast considering most of you have said that’s the way to go. I have a minor tear in my rotator cuff 6 months ago I’ve slowly repaired it through exercises and therapy and am almost back to normal. That’s why Im scared winnie might potential cause me to re-injure that.

    There’s a lot of bro fear around Tren in my opinion. If you’re not a borderline schizophrenic, you should be fine.

    I mean don’t take it lightly, but that advice goes with every compound. Treat is seriously, do your research and be an adult.

    It’s the best recomp drug out there in my opinion and a little goes a long way. TRT doses of test are what works best for me along with 350-400. Most guys have a “sweet spot” between side effects and efficacy. Most will say use Ace to start, I tried enth the first time and did fine….never looked back.

    Not that you can paint it with a broad brush experientially, but that’s my anecdote.

    Just be careful with that cuff, that should be your bigger worry.

    Tren side effects for me are all the classics but I never went into a blind rage. Sweaty, out of breath, and GI sides. I like it for a recomp because I don’t like to eat on it, lol. Gives me heartburn and messes with my tummy but its thermogenic and I get great strength gains too

    I actually thought about Tren however it was only his second cycle. Although there is nothing wrong IMO of Tren on the second cycle, I actually think mast would give him more of what he was looking for.

    So S&D prefers tren over mast?? LOL

    Mast and proviron are the two best wingman out there IMO. Mast with sub 10% BF at slightly over 400 mgs, slices me up and gives me a great aesthetic look. I think you were spot on Charger.

    Guys don’t love mast because they’re not in good enough BF % shape to reap its rewards or don’t understand it’s synergy with testosterone .

    It’s certainly not a compound to build a cycle around but is such a good add on, especially early on in your anabolic career when you’re understanding how your body reacts and you can still get great gains with test only. Even more so when you’re naturally lean

    You know me and mast are besties

    Well if he uses Trenbolone , he'd have to add some Masteron to deal with the prolactin sides right folks? So it would be one more drug besides testosterone !

    Trembo-Ace +Masteron

    One thing I learned from GH, Trenbolone and Masteron in a cutting cycle will only have great effects in the final 8 weeks of a cycle, when the BF is already low. They are drugs for cosmetic effects in the cycle, providing hardness and eliminating the rest of the fat.

    For a second cycle I would just use some form of testosterone with anavar oxandrolone, that's perfect! What will dictate the results is more diet .

    Agree with about 99% of that, but you can speed up those “effects” by choosing more acetate esters, and go with the acetate version (just have to up your pinning regimen)

    (the shoutout to GH)
