beginners cycle HELP!

[kidkaos22]

hi im 22 1/2 and im considering my 1st cycle,ive been training for 2 years and have a good diet and training regime.I am 6'4'' and currently weigh 94kg and am around 13 percent body fat.my training only consists of 4-5 times weekly on seperate body parts each day for one hour finishing with a little cardio e.g.chest monday,back tuesday,shoulders legs wednesday finishing with some running and ab work.Im not looking to explode as i dont plan to compete i jus want to gain a bit mor size and definition,examples of build i want to be would be will smith,hugh jackman size which i think is acheivable considering wer oim at now.ive jus reached a plateau at around 14 stone 10 and want to be around 15 stone 7.i was considering test enanthate for 8 weeks with the rite pct and novaldex,im jus worried about side effects,im alredy balding quite bad but it doesnt bother me coz i shave it short but still like holding on to this last bit!i was wondering if it will be so bad jus for one course as i know it speeds these things up,also woz wondering bout acne and gyno.and does it make hair grow in places it doesnt normally e.g. i hav a very hairy chest but smooth bak would it make me get a hairy back,and if so would this dissappear after use.thanks

Your still kinda young to start a cycle bro. Also if you have only been training for 2 yrs you shouldnt be hitting a wall. Check your workouts ad diet first, theres gotta be something off. Whats your diet like? As far as sides, its different for everyone and as far as your 8 week test e, thats not imho long enough...12 weeks would be better but as i said i dont feel like your ready nor do you need it at your young age.

ye i understand,diet is up and down really,its always high protein uisually chicken in morning,chicken and patato lunch,eggs or fish and wholemeal bread and string beans hour before gym,steak mash and veg after gym,protein shake with pint full fat milk before bed,i think i probably need more calories i know that but i like 2 stay lean thats the thing and sometimes lower carbs 2 stay lean which will obviuosly lower the chances of gaining,any ideas?

hey bro, your first post hurts my eyes lol, can you break it up into questions please? then i'll be happy to answer

also, i'd like to see your diet in detail, you remind me of my friend kyle, he's around your height, 180lbs and 11-12%, really hard time gaining muscle, but i messed with his diet a bit and he started to gain strength and muscle like crazy

it's all in the diet bro, without it nothing will work, remember, your body can only work and grow as well as the nutrients it has at the time, think of it like building a house vs. hotel

If the guy building the house sets up a great foundation and has all his materials available to him 24/7 he never has to stop working, he can build and build and build to his heart's content, but if the guy building the hotel(even though he obviously has tons of money and extra help the other guy doesn't..i.e. steroids) doesn't have any materials or labor nothing is going to get built, he's just gonna end up sitting on his ass wondering what went wrong. Don't be that guy lol

k, i need to be a little picky here with the diet because i can't really help without knowing the macros for the meals(meaning how many grams of protein/carbs/fat are in each meal)

thinks like protein shake can mean straight whey, or a 2000cal weight gainer, see what i mean lol, there's a great video series on dieting in the diet forum called "So you wanna learn how to diet", its a sticky(close to the top), watch them and then post your diet in detail again and we'll go over it till it's perfect

8 hours of sleep is great, i wish i could do that

as far as reps, here's a general breakdown

1-3 Strength mostly
3-8 Strength with some size as well
8-12 Size mostly
12-15 Size for legs(bigger muscle group, needs more stimulation to grow)
