Hey Folks,

So this is my very first post after reading this forum for the last 6 or 7 years and I am finally ready to take the plunge.

I thought that I had practically put together my plan of action and was ready to start my first cycle in about 4 weeks.

I am 33 years old 6 feet tall, 182 lbs, and carrying about 10% BF.

I have been training for 16 years and perfecting my diet and have actually committed myself to becoming quite the endurance athlete for the last 5 years with a large focus on running/obstacle based competitions but I'm looking to make a shift.

I thought I had a the proper line up for my first cycle along with my PCT, AI's, Gear etc., But now I am starting to second guess everything.

There has seemed to be such a huge push toward the use of HCG that I am not sure if I should even start my cycle without it. The problem arises with the fact that I have tried every avenue out there and it just isn't on my radar.

I am planning:

Test E: 500 mg per week (weeks 1-12)
Dbol: 40 mg. per day (weeks 1-4)
followed by my PCT

I have my pct laid out and in hand as well as my AI for e.o.d use. BUT i am getting really nervous about starting this cycle without HCG. I know of numerous guys who have run numerous cycles without ever considering hcg and swear that they had no issues requiring hcg, but I wanted some real opinions from someone with real knowledge.

Should I move forward with this cycle without hcg or should I just put everything on hold and continue to try to seek it out? I am really psyched to get started but now I am caught in limbo.

What's the worst case scenario to expect by not using hcg and am I just over analyzing this because I want everything to be perfect for this first run? I am a bit OCD and have a plan that I will stick to and I just want it to be exact.

Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

HUB
