TNT, Barbells79, Diesel, Androplex and others.....
I am ready to really start reading what I need to know about for the cycle I am planning on starting this coming Fall (or thereabouts).
Which would you folks suggest I read up on and study closely ?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
peace everyone,
Why, the answer is obvious...

Seriously, you already have a basic knowledge of AS from hanging out here at A.R. (especially with 3,900-some posts at this point!), not to mention your knowledge and experience in powerlifting..
As we've discussed in the past, I think that a basic test cycle is a good starting point, especially in light of your lifting experience. You've mentioned that one of your goals is to lose the gut (which is very common with powerlifters), and test would help reverse the body fat/lean muscle mass ratio for the better.
Obviously, you have some time before your cycle starts, so my recommendation would be to read everything you can. But especially, since you already have a target date, read as much as you can about injection techniques so that when the time comes to begin, you'll feel comfortable with the notion of doing injections.
Also, make sure you practice what you have preached so well elsewhere - get a physical exam if you haven't already done do, including all the usual lab work and, if appropriate, a stress test. (Make sure you also ask for total testosterone labwork on the chance that you might be able to pull off a prescription.) Also start paying attention to diet and cardio now, so you can compensate for any weight you gain on AS.
And hopefully, once you are at the point of starting AS, you'll also have a training partner. Preferably one from Kansas.* :)
