    I don't think EQ is your answer.

    If I were you, I'd focus on getting lean, not packing on muscle.

    Hows your diet and cardio schedule?

    Eq will do very little for you with such a high bodyfat. Try doing your cardio on an empty stomach in the morning and check out the diet section here. Your diet needs help.

    Too young to need any cycle of any sort. Cardio every morning on an empty stomach and lift in the evenings, remove most fats and all simple sugars, kick your water intake up to 120 oz a day. I disagree about the fat burning as a priority, if you add muscle and eat clean you will burn fat and accomplish more in a shorter period of time. Don't get discouraged when the results come slow.

    More cardio bro - I would really focus on diet and at least 50 min's cardio every morning pre-breakfast. You will have some mass that will continue to show more as your BF decreases. You most likely have high E2 which is working against you in every way. Lower that BF my good man then worry about increasing mass!

    Good job so far and good luck the rest of the way!!

    Agreed with all of the above - forget EQ or any other AAS right now. You need to get your diet in check big time before every considering AAS. We'll be happy to help you out over in the diet section.

    your weight lifting workouts are just

    chest
    shoulders
    bi's
    and abs...

    What about upper back? lower back? tri's?

    and... the other 50% of your body.....
    Legs?

    thighs / hams / glutes / calves..

    I think an overall higher RMR could be achieved with some leg training.
