Keeping my Strength! Smart PCT
Finished a Great cycle of prop 1.5 cc eod for 12 weeks. Gained a huge amount of strength and about 25lbs. This was my 3rd cycle and I'm learning a lot along the way. My first two cycles went well but my pct was too basic (just nolva) or poorly prepared (not enough gear) and I crashed Very hard. My size and strength went down considerably and I felt depleted. So this time around I followed the Golden Rule and got more than enough of everything (GP nolva and clomid). I am running 100mg clomid 40mg nolva week 1, week two 100 mg clomid 40mg nolva, week three 50mg/20mg, week four 50mg/20mg. It's been two weeks since my last pin and I feel Great! I do believe when you finish a cycle and you begin pct your energy increases, but this time around I've kept most of my strength and also +10 lbs of bodyweight. I know there is better gear for pct like HCG, but I just wanted to share my experience for any newbies so that they can understand the importance of pct and how it can make or break your cycle.

zewiIf you take HCG on cycle it does only one thing—IT STOPES YOUR BALLS FROM SHRINKING!!!
If you take HCG after cycle—and you are on TEST E you should wait 15 days and then do a 10-12 day blast of HCG and then start your PCT(remember to take an AI when using HCG as it converts to estor and stay on your AI during that 15 days. )—Your Test Level will dramatically fall after 15 days because Test E half-life is over— So by taking HCG after 15 days you do two things.
--You wake up your balls
--your balls actually increase LH and FH production—which if you have low test is a good thing, and would work for a normal person, however we are talking about AAS—with AAS your estro will spike after cycle so you need a PCT..HCG starts you—Clomid and Nova Finish you.
Because you are taking an AI when using HCG on the blast you are blocking estro which allows HCG to do its Job—but then comes your PCT which you should start 2 days after your last HCG shot.
Week 1 PCT Aromasin 12.5mg EOD/Nolva 20 Daily/Clomid 100 Daily
Week 2 PCT Aromasin 12.5mg EOD/Nolva 20 Daily/Clomid 100 Daily
Week 3 PCT Aromasin 6.25mg EOD/Nolva 10 Daily/Clomid 50 Daily
Week 4 PCT Aromasin 6.25mg EOD/Nolva 10 Daily/Clomid 50 Daily
You may consider running 6.25mg EOD on Weeks 1-4 if you feel 12.5mg is too strong
Now that Your Balls are awake—it actually makes Clomid job easier -- Clomiphene--works by blocking estrogen at the pituitary. The pituitary sees less estrogen, and makes more LH. More LH means that the Leydig cells in the testis make more testosterone.
Nova--increases in the serum levels of LH, FSH, if. And also helps block estrogen.
LH--is what the body uses to make Test.
How your testis make natural testosterone.
(REMEBRER TESTOSTERONE DOES TRUN INTO ESTROGEN)
Leyding cells(your testis)---->produce Test------>(some turns in to estrogen)-------------->pituitary Gland(Makes LH)----LH goes to------>Leyding cells make Natural Test--------and the process starts again...
If you have to much estrogen well there is not enough natural Test hitting the pituitary so the pituitary can not make LH...
How Clomid works
Leyding cells(your testis)---->produce Test------>(some turns in to estrogen)-------------->Clomid blocks estrogen from hitting the pituitary(now the pituitary can make LH)pituitary Gland(Makes LH)----LH goes to------>Leyding cells make Natural Test--------and the process starts again...
Clomid is what gets your natural test going, you take nova to block even more estrogen to help the process.
Thanks for that reply very helpful and informative !
Awesome breakdown Zewi
i am kinda worried about my PCT too, i am gonn a start my first cycle soon and i have been researching AAS for about a year, in the past i have watched my brother do Decca/Dbol cycles and not PCT and crash hard, tried to explain the importance of PCT to him but he is stubborn as a bull, i am thinking of running, nolva weeks 4-12 20MG EOD increase as needded during cycle and a clomid step down 50-75 MG ED PCT and third week 25MG ED. Dont know if this is a good idea because its my first cycle and i don't know how my body will react to the chemicals =.= any advice would be helpful
