Newbie needs advice...

[tdln]

do you have a PCT lined out? if not, you should check out the PCT forum and work one out asap!

This might be a silly question, but why should he worry about PCT when he is currently going through his first cycle? I thought PCT is for when the cycle ends.....that is, the intermission between the end of one cycle and the beginning of another.

pct is what restores your natural testosterone to normal levels after you end a cycle being shut down for 12 weeks or so.

without pct, your cortisol levels are insanely high and your body is producing no testosterone to keep the new muscle you worked so hard for.

bottom line, no pct = no gains after your cycle and problems down the road for recovery.


to the thread poster: you are in over your head. take my advice and STOP the cycle now before you do yourself a good deal of harm.

learn about pct, get some chems on hand and work on your diet. 165 pounds is not near your genetic potential. you have growing to do naturally still.

Could you please explain to me what is so concerning about his first cycle? I am also in my first cycle and I have experienced similar side effects as well? I am not sure I understand the relevance of PCT in this discussion. I understand what PCT is but it is an issue that should be concentrated upon at the end of the cycle rather than the beginning.

If I am missing something, please clue me in.

you DO NOT start ANY cycle without having your pct gear ON HAND AND READY.

pct is just as important as the cycle itself, if not more important.

those of you that are ignoring this fact are in for a terrible time when your cycle draws to a close.

take the time to EDUCATE yourselves about pct, there is an entire forum about it.

My cycle is going to end in 10 weeks....I think I have plenty of time to get PCT gear when the time comes.

and what if you encounter a problem in your cycle and you are forced to stop early? what will you do then?

and if im not mistaken, you dont even have a source for your pct chems yet, so what makes you so confident you will get them in time?

I hope this comment by you is universally rejected as it sets a TERRIBLE train of thought into motion that other noobs may embrace.

i have nothing else to say. PCT should be ready before a cycle starts, and any other view on this is illogical and irrelevant.
