    1. i know that 5AR inhibitor help prevent the androgenic effects of Test without compromising the anabolic effects (which is good ) do you guys think its a plus to have one??
    If the 5AR inhibitor u have in mind is Finasteride, it will only aid in type 2 DHT, which is mostly for hair loss. Type 1 DHT inhibitors like MK-386 is mostly for acne. If u opt for dutasteride, u successfully block both.

    Although DHT doesn't play a roll in muscle building (a known one anyway) it does play a roll in sex drive, stregnth and energy.

    2. Is an AI usefull in a cycle thats dosed under 500mg / week?? i know every person is different but Is it really worth it to inhibit the conversion of estrogen during a Test cycle?
    I'd have them on standby, and use them only when u start to notice signs of gyno or excessive bloating. Its good to see ur natrual limits, and its easy to prevent symptoms escalating into real problems once they begin.

    Note: DHT is also a type of anti-estrogen, if u ran dutasteride or Fin, be sure to use an anti estrogen at all times.

    3. should nolvadex still stay in the mix?? i`ve read that it isnt an Anti-estrogen but more of a SERM....
    I'd use it mostly for PCT, as its known to afect IGF-1, so not so suitable while bulking.
