+ 7 First cycle, Anadrol only.
I see a lot of mention of oral only cycles, Dbol, anadrol, winny and anavar so I thought I'd share my story. It's been a number of years since my first cycle but the whole experience is one I'll never forget.
Both me and my lifting partner acquired 50 50mg tablets each of a very well known British brand of steroids long since gone now and decided we were going to run our first cycle. I was 22, he was 20 and we had been lifting for a little less than 2 years, but both had a history involving sports.
After a little research the internet surprisingly cropped up many 'bros' who endorsed oral only cycles (thank god for eroids) so I thought it checked out let's give it a go.
My cycle was as followed: 50/100/100/50
My lifting partners: 50/50/50/50/50/50
My PCT: clomid 50mg / nolvadex 20mg for 10 days.
I ran Liv52 from the start but ironically enough my friend said he didn't believe in taking pills so he didn't take liver support or PCT meds. We both also had no knowledge of AI's and neither did the supposedly informed bros who convinced us to roll the dice on the preposed cycles.
Results? Damn well both of our strength went crazy, gained kilos on our lifts within days, aggression was at an all time high in the gym which led to some PB been smashed. Size wise, we bloated up to the max.. And loved it, looking back at photos we looked puffy with giant moon faces but at the time a nudge on the scales that usually took 3 months took 2 weeks so we were enjoying ourselves.
Side effects wise, my buddy got a lump about 2/3 the size of a golf ball under one if his nipples, I believe he's still got it only lessened in size. Sides for me were aggression increase in and outside of the gym (I'm usually laid back) and slight ED for roughly 3 weeks at the end of the cycle and during PCT.
Of what if those gains did we keep? We lost 99% of the mass within the first 2 months and about 50% of the strength gains were lost too. Only the gyno and embarrassment of the ED issues remained. Thankfully by some luck I bounced back and my natty tests levels raised back to normal although I imagine it could of easily gone the other way.
I can now look back and laugh while shaking my head at this and hope someone learns from my mistake of cycling irresponsibly and at a young age. Anyone else had any experiences with a misinformed oral only cycle?

Oh man, been there and done that. It was junior year of high school and I had been lifting for 4 years and just wasn't getting the results I desired (come to learn that my test was a late bloomer.) so I ran a under the toung dissolvable 2 in 1 superdrol and halodrol smartie from some acclaimed "lab" ha. It was legal too. I can't remember the dosage but it was stupid high. One month, ONE month I gained 22lbs. Strength tripled, aggression out of control and scales toppled. Now I took a "liver protectant" and the brand's "pct" so I thought I was covered. Ended up getting gyno (still have it, no bigger than a walnut now). Slowly lost all my gains, libido, and motivation and had no idea why. I was weaker than I when had started going into my senior year. Much more educated now but I guess you live and you learn.
Did you ever bounce back?
geez guys, this thread is funny but kinda depressing at the same time. i was actually a lurker on this site and other forums years ago before i ever ran my first cycle. read everything i could, and by the time i felt like pulling the trigger i had the knowledge and resources to do it right haha 500mg test e/week, aromasin, pct clomid and toremifine and paid source prices. haha no horror stories from me
Call yourself a juicer!!
I wish I did the same..
It's in my nature I guess. I'm analytical and will research obsessively on a topic I'm interested in. In this instance it definitely helped me be safe and save me a lot of heartache
X2 bro. Iv been researching gear since I was 16 did first cycle at 28.500mg/wk test e. Im 31 now
respect brother!
I can't remember exactly how I ran it all.. I think it was turinabol and anavar both at 80mg/day for I think it was 8 weeks. There was proviron and arimidex in there too, I don't remember how I used those but I think they were my "pct".....
I don't recall any negative sides and honestly I kept about 12 solid lbs. Though I was incredibly underweight at the beginning. ( I think about 159 at 6'1'' ended around 175 and down to 171ish )
I'm not condoning or recommending this. I wasn't ready to use these drugs, I used them improperly, I got lucky.
I hear Tbol is pretty mild compared to anadrol. Seems you were quiet successful!
It happens bro. I remember grabbing my first-ever bottle of dbol way back because the "big dude" at the gym told me I didn't need anything I had to inject (because I told him I was scared of needles). He probably paid for his next two cycles from what he charged me lol. The only thing positive that came from that is the fact he told me that I didn't need huge doses of "steroids that come from the pharmacy". Still to this day if I touch dbol (pharma), I only run it 35-50mgs spread throughout the day. Makes me wonder how all these weekend warriors can handle between 100-150mgs a day of LEGIT DBOL on top of massive amounts of injectables...wish I was that hardcore
Ain't that the truth, the guy who I brought the anadrol off probably laughed his head off all the way home.
The sides those guys must have to deal with must be insane. I ran 40/50 Dbol last cycle and sprang puffy nipples! I'll be trying 20 ED next run, tiny amount compared to some.
I was 21 yrs old, thought I was a beast. Took liquid anadrol, came w/ a dripper, I did 3 "drips" a day. It may have equated to about 10mgs a day. Did this for about 2 months. Had amazing strength and size gains. Kept some gains, really didn't have any sides. Guess I was lucky! Man I was an idiot!
By the way, I paid $150 each for the liquid adrol bottles. They were 25mg/ml, maybe had 10ml per bottle. Sweet deal....
Funny hearing about so many people experianceing the same as me
No to hard to come by inside , and way to much $$ , but I have seen bol and drol in there
Smh , seems like alot of plp , share my experience, except the sites were here I just wasnt aware of them , I gym rat from the joint hooked me up.( he really hooked me up ) ,seen him at gym , well I ran the same cycle and some . And I spent the majority of my life inside , so I couldnt even work a computor , never mind find a site .lol ,but I finally got one of them fancy phones , went onto some sites , smh I honestly came on to sites thinking I knew something , I use to get pissed off when id get grided up ... wow how I grew over the years , good post my friend , brings back the truth and the night mare +1
For me also buying a smart phone took the interest to the next step. Do much information at the ends of our finger tips. Definitely beats trying to piece together information you've heard from a gym buddy and common sense.
I imagine cycles inside were mostly orals?
Almost the same experience as yourself. Drol only, 4 week's on 4 week's off followed by another 4 week's on. Aged about 28, I'd never heard of pct or ai, or even the word gyno lol. Just came off and tbh felt a bit weaker than before, labored workouts etc but after another few weeks I was back to feeling fine and kept a couple of kgs in weight and was stronger than at that point than if I'd remained natty.
The other people at the gym were using maga doses of gear so a bit of drol seemed pretty basic. I don't regret doing it but obviously I know better now due to knowledge from here mainly. I don't recommend it either, there's better was to reach your goals.
Tried a test cyp cycle and few years after that then started again at 38 right up till this point now at 40.
I love gear, and it loves me back, my bathroom mirror told me lol
The mirror never lies Rob ;) I don't regret the cycle either to be honest, it was all a learning curve.
Any sides?
No sides other than feeling a bit feeble for a few weeks till natty test kicked back in. I was only using 50mg a day so this may of helped.
Man you want to hear fucking stupid. I took oral winny, dbol and halo, no pct ,that was over 10 years ago. I didn't know what pct was until I came to this site. had no fucking clue what I was doing at the time. After all the reading I have done on this site I have come to the conclusion that my depression was related to that bullshit I did. I consider the run of test e 300 that I am about to do to be my first time.
I imagine we're not alone in what we have done mate, seems loads have been misinformed too! I hope you've got over your battle with depression, I've sent you an f/r fella.
Yea I made tremendous progress with my depression, don't even take meds for it anymore. fr accepted brother
I don't know anyone who endorses oral only cycles since that would lead to your natural test being shutdown by week 2 or sooner, IMO I never liked orals, seems like you slam on alot of sloppy weight and then lose 80% of it once you drop the sup. Ive always like just liked kick starting my cycles with test prop, and I found that gave me more aggression aswell as sending my dick on a rampage wanting to fuck everything in sight lol.
It does seem like a lot of water weight, using anadrol I've broken through PB with the added aggression and the added water weight helped stretch out my muscle fibers ready for gains. It has a synthetic energy with a lot of other gear also mate. Have you tried them before?
Thanks for sharing.
We seem to run into this quite often here. Just the other day a guy was touting oral only cycles. He had done some in the past and had made gains, so he thought they were all good to go.
If people could actually see past their noses, they could actually learn something. This is a good start.
Lucky we have a place like eroids and chaps like you to guide us through with personal and medical knowledge.
Great story to share. Thanks
Hopefully others will learn from this.
thetdog623837When I was about 18, 19 year old I was given oxys and deca by a guy down the gym lol No pct but cant remember how long I was taking them. Luckily I think the deca was fake cause it could of turned nasty. I cant believe how much of a IDIOT I was
Damn, deca? I would find that fucker and give him a piece of mind! Any gains/sides? What was recovery like?
thetdog623837No gains, no sides, thats why I think it was fake. Cant remember ever feeling bad when I stopped taking them
Sounds like you got off the hook! You were actually lucky to get bunk gear..
