    I'm not worried about the cost of food. I eat a lot of legumes and grains and nuts which are cheap and very calorically dense.

    I'm just wondering if a cycle is going to set me back like $300, or like $1500

    Not even $200 for a test only cycle, assuming you don’t get stupid with doses or duration.

    you just don't need it. Here's a thread about it from a few days ago.

    Can easily be done for $200 that's plenty of test, pct, and syringes.

    Where are the meat and potatoes?

    Gear is the cheapest thing in this industry. Food and hgh will rob you.

    Potatoes aren't better than rice or lentils or beans. They're actually less dense in vitamins and minerals. Tons of protein in legumes.

    Hard to ascertain seriousness.
    Rice > potatoes
    Legumes = tons of protein

    What do you weigh? What are your goals if you cycle? Everyone here explaining real food (meat, ideally red) is what it takes for real growth.

    Not a slam to OP but I’m starting to think all this mass marketing vegan tofu impossible burger crap is beginning to twist people.

    I know loads of super yolked people who eat no red meat. I don't know why you think it takes saturated fat to build muscle. Protein is the important component, and red meat is nowhere near the highest level of protein per lb. And iron can be had from many sources.

    Potatoes? Seriously? 100g of baked potato has 93 calories and 2.5g of protein, 100g of brown rice has 111 calories. 100g of lentils has 116 calories, and 18g protein, 36% of daily iron. Sooo...

    as for potato . super beneficial and much better then rice in regards to overall nutrition and micro nutrients. your crazy to say they are not dense in nutrition..

    heres whats in a potato
    carbohydrate
    fiber
    starch
    Vitamin B1, B2, B3, B6,
    Choline
    Folate
    Vitamin c
    Vitamin k
    Calcium
    Iron
    Magnessium
    Potassium
    Manganese
    Copper
    Zinc
    Phosphurus
    amino acids


    I'm sure I'm forgetting a few things


    beans are very micro nutrient dense as well . but a steak and potato is going to provide you with pretty much most of all you would need from your nutrition

    in comparison , a serving of rice has 50mg of potassium in it while a serving of potato has 950mg of potassium . big difference

    Then join the vegan bodybuilding forum. You are in the wrong place and are clueless.

    This is incorrect. Legumes have the highest amount of lectin per serving and cause the most amount of digestive stress in humans, second only to dairy. The pectin based food also pulls in more water into the intestines during digestion causing bloating and distension.

    Someone trying to bulk on 5k calories is going to blow out their GI tract trying to only eat beans, lentils, etc as carbs.

    Food is going to cost way more than gear. Cost of test should be the least of concerns.

    My guts want to explode doing 4500 with chicken thighs, ground beef, rice and all variety of potatoes and sweet potatoes. Fuck doing it with beans and shit.

    Legumes are completely different after being soaked and cooked than raw.

    This is very true. Most of the concern over lectins came from showing that they didn’t fully denature at 158 Fahrenheit. Last I checked, most people cook theirs at a simmer which is notably higher, and does irreversibly degrade most lectins.

    That said, there’s still some truth to the other side. Remember, on two extremes, the truth is usually somewhere in the middle. Animal products provide a shitload of zoo chemicals and cofactors not found in plants. The same can be said of phytonutrients in plants not being found in animals. Since we’re still trying like hell to reliably suss all of this out, and the centrist approach has repeatedly been shown to provide the best results, it’s probably the best bet for the time being.

    That said, if it’s an ethical issue, more power to you, but the whole “plant based for ze gains” is nonsense, as is “plants will give you cancer of the AIDS and you need to be carnivore”. People really need to stop trying to needle in a haystack evidence for their preferences being “the one true way”.

    Have you priced lean ground beef/steak lately? Fuck, even chicken is sky fucking through the roof here. Much more cost efficient to buy chicken and eggs in bulk. Rice also is cheap as fuck. The beef seems to be the highest price of the three major meats.

    As for the testosterone it wont be that much ...I personally dont use an AI anymore i will run masteron or if things get real bad which they rarely do with mast i might take some nolvadex ...the less shit i have to put in my body the better off my body is thats just how i feel.

    Id say your cycle would be 300 or less down to the alcohol swaps and syringes.
    Is this your first cycle? If so id run test e/c for 12-14 weeks around 600mg pin 2x week
    If you develop water retention or puffyness in the nipps, run nolva 10mg ed and/or mast p 50 mg eod or mast e 100mg with your test e/c injections.
    In short, the cost of your cycle itself would not be much concern...quality rest/food along with an intense (if you have built up to that hopefully you have) workout regime. Good luck
