It's been quite some time since I've participated in the forum on any regular basis. I'm just hopping on to make sure all my ducks are in a row for my first cycle incorporating tren.
Info:
Male, 32
187lbs (First thing this morning, after my poop)
5ft 11inch
BF 14% by callipers
Cycle Hx: 4 previous cycles, all Test-e (never higher than 500mg/week), the last 3 with moderate orals to kickstart.
Training Hx: Highly athletic since childhood, bodybuilding since 14. No competitions.
TDEE: approx 2970
Diet: 3200 cal/day, 40-40-20% macros. Essentially lean steak, chicken breast, greek yogurt, lentils/beans, eggs, yams, rice, oats, ezekiel bread, almonds, almond milk, whey, and a bastard-ton of fibrous veggies. I will be jumping into the diet forum before starting to see if there are any moves I can make to tighten it up further.
Note: Before anyone points out that I'm far too small for having run 4 previous cycles, you are correct. I suffered a lower back injury February of '13. All my cycles were pre-injury; at the time I was 204lbs at 12%BF. I was in physio and athletic therapy 8 hours a day, 5 days a week, for 6 months. During that time I became depressed due to the pain, inability to work, etc... During that time I somehow dropped to 156lbs and was surfing around 20%BF -- I was to ashamed to actually measure it. My Wife gathered some friends an family, and we had ourselves a small intervention. Since then, I have brought my diet back to par and have slowly recomp to where I am today. While I am now higher risk for back injury, I have recovered as near 100% as it will ever be. I'm reaching the point where I historically begin having trouble gaining lean mass without adding excess fat. I've strengthened my back and brought my body back to a place where I'm comfortable doing a conservative cycle.
Cycle:
Test E - 200mg/week
Tren E - 200mg/week
anavar - 40mg/day
Anavar kick-start for the 1st 4 weeks, cycle 10 weeks total.
Aromasin, Caber, HCG, Tamox, and Clomid all on hand. Hopping down to Washington State for pre-bloods 1st week of January.
Questions:
While I've always had HCG on hand, I've never used it. Previous cycles have not produced any noticeable testicular atrophy, PCT has always gone smoothly, and post-bloods always turn out well. With that in mind, with the nature of 19-nors, what are your opinions on using it? Should I just start from week 1, or wait and see if I notice atrophy?
I have caber on hand, but I take Vyvanse daily for ADHD. I have developed multiple coping machanisms to deal with it and am comfortable not using Vyvanse if I take caber, but life is much easier with it. In your opinions, would I be okay waiting to take caber and start with only controlling E2, then start caber if signs/symptoms/bloods tell me otherwise? This would be my preferred course of action, I truly believe the less I put in my body the better.
