So I'm in week 7 of 11 of my first cycle. Figured I'd share some thoughts with others on here. Firstly the gear is 600mg e3.5d of test E, with a 25 mg/day kickstart of dbol. Aromasin of 25 mg/day with nolva on hand.
The dbol was crazy. I gained strength within a week and put on a decent amount of weight. Didnt notice much water retention, probably due to the aromasin, but got bad pumps occasionally. As far as the injections go, ive settled for vastus lateralis after a few painful attempts, now they occur with no pain whatsoever, Ive also taken to injecting .2-.3 cc of air following the gear to chase it out a bit.
As far as sides go I had prexisting gyne that hasnt gotten much worse, and no other sides whatsoever, my skin is smooth as a babies ass. My balls are not big, a little emasculating, but i can deal with it, lol. I do get dehydrated almost instantly, so i try to take in 5-6 L of water a day. I'm consuming an average of 6000 kcal/day, with supplement shakes making up mainly post workout nutrition, and busy days (Im in med school, so we have those on occasion). I train 9x per week, 3 classic bodybuilding AM workouts and 6 evening olympic lifting workouts. Recovery is insane fast, my neuro is the only thing holding me back, the gear doesnt help so much with that.
My bodyweight is up 25 lbs and I'm not retaining water, which is more than I could have asked for already! All lifts are up across the board, c&j is up 25 kg and BSQ is up almost 20kg. I've been a nationally competitive weightlifter since I was 16 (im 24 now) and These lifts have never jumped like this. I think that as this much becomes trained the lifts should continue to rise.
PCT is going to start in 4 weeks or so (1 week following my last shot) and I'll be following the steroid.com protocol (I ran it by a friend in endocrinology and he says it looks pretty sound). Ill be getting followup bloodwork done to ensure proper recovery.
Thanks for reading, any advice or questions, feel free!
