    500mg of test is fine, your stopping your nat production no matter, and 500mg you normally don't get much sides.

    I would actually disagree..

    If this is your first cycle then 300/350mgs imo would produce very good gains as long as your diet and training are spot on...

    However if your already injecting 500mgs and have done so for the last two weeks then the guy's are correct, theres no point in changing that...

    Week 5 into my first cycle I got acne. It stunk. Keep yourself washed clean from all that oil you're producing. I normally shower twice a day with 5% benzyl peroxide soap. Have fun bro.

    250 mg would have been ideal at your age. You are already producing a high amount of endegenous testosterone, even a low dose of 250mg per week would have provided plenty of free test in your system, and it most likely wouldn't have shut you down until later in the cycle. Meaning an easier transition to nat production off cycle.

    500mg will shut you down quick. It's alot on the system first off, so make sure you have nolvadex on hand. Check your blood pressure regularly, and I expect you had headaches.

    You're going to feel great on 500mg, but coming off maybe tough going. you may be tempted to get back on the gear quick, but leave it at least 3 weeks...and I mean at least. The longer the better. Keep on top of the PCT and hopefully you'll return to near normal production.

    Next time, try 250mg once per week. If you find you're not gaining, then increase it. The lower the dose you take, if you are still gaining, the better. It's easier on the system, and easier to deal with off cycle.

    500mg is too high fella....maybe in a year or so.

    I believe 250 is going to be more than most produce natty so there for most will be shut down from even 100 per week. Shut down is shut down regardless.

    yeah everyone has there opinions, some say anything less that 400mg/week is a waste others say take only 250mg/week for you first cyc. I'll stick with 500mg/week and keep on top of pct..thanks
