Just ordered blood work. Getting ready for first real cycle.
Hi, I am 41, 5'7" and 172lbs. I have recently dropped weight from a high of 224lbs. I am excited to get this body in shape. I have been reading this site for over a year now. The first thing I learned, was how much I didn't know. I tried test c once when I was 20. It was only 4 weeks of 250mg per week. No PCT, I didn't even know what that was. I would have done more at the time, but that was all that was at my disposal, thank goodness. I must say I remember bigger pumps and more strength and way less muscle soreness, even on such a small run.
Anyway, I have decided I want to run a cycle. I have test e and test prop. I have clomid, nolva, hcg, and letro. I am leaning towards a test prop first cycle. I can handle injections, I did the hcg diet and stuck myself with 1 1/2" 25 gauge needles for 52 days in a row. I am sure there will be more pip with test prop, however. Can some experienced guys give me some feed back on a test prop cycle? I just got my pre-blood work done, and will have results soon. I am real curious to see where my natty test is. Thanks for your help. EROIDS is amazing!

Wow, I just read the results from my blood test. Testosterone 260 ng/dl ! I wasn't expecting it to be so low. I have felt that I might be a little low, but I didn't think I was a TRT candidate. Any suggestions on changes to my proposed prop cycle? I was thinking 100mg eod,
I love prop with no pip, so all depends on the source. 100mg eod is good for first run.
Thanks for the reply. 100mg eod is 350mg per week. Is that good for my first run? On test e, most people run 500mg per week.
Actually it's about the same.
Longer esters have less test as the ester itself adds weight.
Test suspension (test without an ester) is 100% test
prop is approximately 75% testosterone / 25% ester
enanthate, is approximately 55% testosterone / 45% ester.
In short, 500 mg of test-e per week would give you an "active ingredient" dose of about 275 mg of testosterone. Whereas 350 mg of prop would give you 263 mg of testosterone.
That's right. I remember reading that. It's easy to forget important things like that with so much information to learn. I thank you for taking the time to inform me. This is what this site is all about, those who want to learn, have such knowledge available because of this community.
Thought you were doing prop?
I am, I was just referring to test e as an example, because it is the more common choice.
I would go 500 long ester then.
Why? I am leaning towards prop because of more consistent test levels and less estro related problems.
500 for long ester or 300 on short depending what test you want to run.
Oh, you are saying if I go long ester to go 500. But, you still like prop, right? Sent you a FR.
Fr excepted
Prop is awesome if there's no pip!
My blood work comes back way better on prop!
