For the whole deal " gear wise" probably $250 the most, but add Pct, diet, protien, wholesale club memberships, scales, that food vaccuum thing ( to save food from ws club) other supp's ( glut, amino's....ect) 1st cycle will probably run ya your whole return + , later cycles will be a little cheaper though... did I mention co-pays ( if in the USA w/ hmo) for physicals and bloodwork... ect....
