What would you recommend as a first cycle for a 22 year old?

[steelydanman]

I am 190 lbs/ 22 years old. I was wanting to get some opinions on a first cycle. What would give me some decent gains with relatively low side effects? I have considered taking PH's such as h-drol but Im not sure if there is anything else out there..

Thanks everyone

[Mammon]

cant tell you where to go for gear..

[steelydanman]

6'0 about 10% bodyfat

There are RULES here, PLEASE READ THEM BEFORE POSTING

[steelydanman]

my main goal is to gain lean muscle mass possibly lose a little body fat but not really my main concern

[steelydanman]

sorry i will edit my post

[T-MOS]

There is a LOT more you need to know than just WHAT kind of steroid to take

you need to have a consistent diet,
You need to kwow what to have on hand during your cycle in case of bad side effects
you need to know , understand, and have PCT knowledge for after the cycle

you are about to change the chemistry of your body and shut off hormone production.
this isn't something you want to take lightly

[steelydanman]

I completely agree. I will definately not jump into anything. I am just getting ideas. I would not ever ever take anything without having the proper pct in hand before cycle. I have a very solid diet down. I am currently bulking trying to naturally get up to 200 lbs. Just wondering what a good beginner cycle would generally be. Any thoughts on fina?

[T-MOS]

First cycles are BEST kept to ONE compound.

A single LONG ester Testosterone is BEST

look into
Test Enanthate
Test Cypionate
Clomid
Nolvadex
Arimidex
Letro
HCG

thats a good place to start

FINA is NOT for the beginner, maybe after 5 or so cycles. it is one of the HARSHEST steroids out there....NOT for the beginner

[Mammon]

test only.. forget tren for now

[steelydanman]

just curious, but what would a step up from running straight test be? I have taken PH's that basically would have a similar effect..

[Mammon]

wouldnt compare the two..

[breakbones]

To young!
Grow older, wiser! and natural!

[rksdmf]

You got about another 3 years before you should even think about getting gear, and at your age and very little knowledge you are perfect for someone looking to SCAM......

[T-MOS]

NOTHING.....

Did you run a PCT with your PH's? I am guessing NO

[steelydanman]

I appreciate the concern, I will not get caught up in a scam.

You don't think that PH's compare to test?
I have looked into these.. would any be worth while?

promoviron
dbol
anavar
winny

[steelydanman]

Yes i absolutely ran a pct along with cycle support and pct support with both of the Ph's i took

no no maybe and NO

you can NOT do this half assed, and thinking you can make and keep gains from and ORAL ONLY cylce is very half assed

if you are afraid to learn to inject, then you need to wait a few years

those four listed have their place in this, BUT not by themselves

[steelydanman]

I am not afraid to inject.. So what is your recommendation?

Just straight test along with proper pct and cycle support?

[T-MOS]

Perfect !!

along with DIET, Training, REST

and you are good to go !!!

500mgs/week for 10-12 weeks taken in two 250mgs shots one every 3.5 days

[steelydanman]

I am not against injecting whatsoever, I understand there would be less bioavailability with an oral but would it be better to go that route as a first cycle?

[Mammon]

if you wanted to run an oral cycle only ones id consider would be tbol or var..
test would be the way to go

[T-MOS]

I am not against injecting whatsoever, I understand there would be less bioavailability with an oral but would it be better to go that route as a first cycle?

NO !!!!

most orals except for the ones Mammon mentioned will SHUT DOWN your natural test production and if you don't replace what is shut off during your cylce , you can have some VERY unwanted side effects

[steelydanman]

I appreciate the help so far, very helpful on this site. I just want it to be known I am not looking to jump into anything at all. I am looking into all options and educating myself. I would rather not do anything that could cause short term or long term consequences to my body than to rush into something.

I see

Do you think Test Cypionate would be decent to start with, What AI would you suggest I'm assuming an otc wouldn't suffice?

however I am interested in T-bol however I am not familiar with it.. I have taken superdrol before does it compare?

[Mammon]

tbol is similar to dbol without the bloat

[steelydanman]

not trying to fish or anything but seeing that buysteroids.com is a sponsor for this website are they reputable and do they sell any from of test if not i have another source but just curious?

[Mammon]

its just supplements with similar names to bait in newbs to spend their money..not the real deal.
dont waste your money.
