18 weeks of test 400 for first cycle?

[raymondtrudeau]

do you think 18 weeks cycle of test 400 is to long for first cycle?
the reason is iam a few days away from week 7 on test 400 using 1.5 ml per week= 600mg of test a week...I believe the test may me a little under dosed but i am not sure... i gained 5-7 lbs of lean pounds,my strength is way up before i was benching 225 x6
now doing it for 12 reps and 275 x4...anyways i though of extending it another 6.5 weeks (i would pick up a bottle of test e or cypinate)
iam 47 years old..

what do you think

If strength is up and you gained weight why do you think it under dosed?
Get some blood work.
I never run longer then 14 weeks. Remember the longer you shut down the harder it is to recover.
keep test at same level-finish cycle that you planned and recover-take time off (time on + pct = time off) and planned your next cycle a little different

only asking because i only gained 5-7 lbs at start of week 7.. is this in the norm?

I would be pretty stoked with those results by week 7 of test E or C.

Are you accounting for losing bodyfat too?

Get Blood Work.

It is published in the Endo Journal they ran 20 weeks first cycle with no issues on people at 600/week. What you have to understand is the first two cycles are nice with gains and all of that stuff but the purpose, and the reason everyone shouts test only, so so you can learn your body from labs and see the sides you get...and document them. Test will be 80% of all cycles you run or more. It is so very important to understand YOUR body and how it responds to YOUR AI and YOUR test.

Get your bloods done and review them in the blood work area of the forum.

i hve 5 weeks left on cycle..if i continue the way iam going what should i see in terms of packing on weight 12 lbs?

Your gains are more diet dependant than compound dependant. If you aren't gaining you aren't eating enough.

Stick to 12 weeks and have your diet reviewed in our nutrition forum.

I’ve been recently on an 20 weeks cycle, and I tell you, the PCT was like hell. Wasn’t able to have proper sex for a month or even more.
Now sex drive is back to normal, but I’m still on AI.
And take in mind I know my body and my PCT was very adjusted to my needs, so to say, Its up to you, you’re 47, If you even cycle 10 weeks, I would consider TRT, who knows if your HPTA will survive a cycle.

12wks max for a first cycle no need to go longer. Food food food this will determine how much you gain and good training.
