planning first cycle

[bigstava]

thank you guys so much for the posts. It really helps. I don't want to do this half-assed.

I don't think I need a trainer but this may sound stupid but I just seem to push harder when it feels like im doing it for someone else. trainer/coach etc.
I totally agree with you buster defiantly not realistic for 20-30 pounds of muscle but im not looking for this goal to happen after the first cycle. but by the time id say i'm 30 that is my goal. i'm 26 now. I should have stated that. I'm still going to know all I can in the next few weeks before I buy. So far it seems the hardest thing is to get decent gear not under dosed or junk. my tdde calculator I used says 3200 and as far as AI nolvadex at 25mg a day and clomed at 50mg daily.

Nolvadex and clomid are SERMs, not AIs, They don't stop the aromatization of testosterone to estrogen. They only block binding of estrogen. An AI is needed to minimize aromatization as elevated levels of circulating estrogen can have serious health consequences (blood clots, arterial disease, prostate disease, impaired wound healing, increased risk of metabolic disorders, and more).

This will be a problem unless you correct it. Learn to push to the limit whether your alone or with a partner. Future growth depends on it. Visit Marcus's Diary in the Lounge and read it from start to finish. It'll take a while, then jump in. Great training advice and motivation awaits you there.
