+ 4 I always come back to the basics
So it's that time of year again when I start planning my cycle. I run one cycle a year starting in either April or May and ranges from 16-20 weeks depending on what I'm running. I choose this time of year obviously because it's spring and summer and I'm vain and want to look good,lol. My diet gets clean and my training gets intense so I like to throw in some gear to help.
I have changed my cycle 4 or 5 times and in the end I find myself back to basic and simplistic cycles. I always start with this elaborate cycle then look it at think...why? I'm a regular guy who likes to use AAS. So minimal basic cycles are all I will ever need. I've added new things here and there, but nothing to fancy. As much as I would love to run multi stacked cycle it's just not practical.
This time is Test E or C with a Prop kick and some Var at the end. Minimal investment, minimal and easily controllable sides. This will be my first time using Anavar so I hope the source I've chosen produces a quality product.
I contemplated using EQ, but after seeing guys experiences with increased RBC, BP and anxiety I decided not to run it. I don't want to be in the middle of an 18 week cycle and have to drop EQ and still deal with the sides for another couple weeks. I would try Bold Cyp, but most say the PIP is rough, and who needs that.
So basically what I'm saying is know what works for you, know your limits, be honest with yourself and know the risks involved. I've yet to hear of anyone not growing on a simple Test cycle. My lifelong health is more important than short term looks.

Nice post sir....I too like the " basic" cycles...great minds think alike! Haha...
I'll b doing a test c provi cycle soon and also want to try anavar at the end...I've got some research to do as to when to add the var and what if any change to make to nutrition, but looking forward to it! Hope your cycle gets you to your goals!
I have really come to like test c the most out of the test esters. My personal favorite is simply 200 test cyp per week and 100mg primo EOD. Little if any sides and slow but steady results.
Haven't tried Cyp yet, but that's what I'm planning on running this time.
My summer "wedding" cycle lol is going to be prop, proviron, with anavar the last 6 weeks. Explain to me why any of us gym rats just trying to look good need any more then just that. A cycle like that with a good diet will leave either of us lean, dry, vascular and hard a fuck looking at the end. Minimal sides if any. I might even go with a long ester the first 8 weeks then switch to prop the last 4 to avoid pinning eod for 12 fucking weeks. My most successful cutter to date was 100mg prop eod, var the last 6 weeks and i used an eca stack a bit to help with energy, and the most perfect diet ive ever stuck to. Its all in the diet.no compllicated stacks, all focus on diet and training. I love anavar though, if youre still a little up in the air on which lab to choose pm me, ill give you the lab i use for 90% of my orals, theyre 10mg var tested out to be i believe 11.9mg per tab. 30mgs ed does the trick with this stuff, 50 is just nuts. But with a good diet, some cardio and hard training, prop provi var will produce a unbelieveable look. I got two cycles I run, my bulks always the same, I dont cut much but when I do thats the cycle. Until the day my life isnt so crazy and i finally get to prep for a show ill run that cycle to get into the single digits. When i do get to compete Ill probably add something like primo, along with test provi var, hopefully next spring that tme wil finally come. But for now when im just trying to look good that cycles more then enough.
Youll love the var though, like i said before i run 30mgs ed, 40 max thats how it is with real var, same as my buddy whos an ifbb pro sittng at 250 at 5'9 on stage, he says "3 a day" hes not technical when it comes to numers and dosing. 3 a day with dbol when he runs that 3 a day with var when he runs that. Hes an old schooler, he doesnt now about 50mg anavar and dbol pillls and shit. The guys in the 80s who ran it when it first came out ran 15-20mgs ed, they came in 2.5mg tabs and they said 15-20mgs was incrediby strong and would give them nosebleeds, idk where this 100mg ed recommendations came from the last 4-5 years or so, if one ran 100mgs of real var theyd probably die. My guess is extreme underdosing, or it actually being tbol as thats not an ucommon dose for tbol. Finally with the boom of real var in the last 6-8 months 40-50mgs is becoming the norm for dosing recommedations. But like rusty said the var will make your strength skyrocket, it does supresss appetite which i dont like personally but whatever, gives nasty pump, makes you vascular, and hard as nails looking. All around great oral. Just get some lipid support, it can be rough on some peoples lipid profiles. If you find yourself needing more then 50mgs ed you can be sure its underdosed, or another drug all together.
Thanks for the info. I'll shoot you a PM.
RustyhookerSimple eat and grow. Let the sweat build you the right way....like it! I think you'll enjoy the var. Strength booms and appetite dips. Great pumps and unbinds testosterone.
Well said!
Agreed. Once diet becomes the main focus and AAS really only comes up during that 5 minutes while pinning results come SOOOO much quicker. ...and again agree about var. for some reason I get stronger or just as strong on Anavar with a low dose of test in there than I do while using tren and anadrol.. Even together.
I 100% agree. Test is best. It's what's in are bodies already. To many guys look at aas as magic in a bottle. Sorry doesn't work that way. Food is the most anabolic substance known to man but is often put on the back burner to heavy cycles.
You are right about food and it took me a long time to realize that. I know most people only want to talk steroids, because a lot think, what is there to talk about with food? You eat it, it's simple right? Nutrition is more difficult to grasp and understand than steroids, and it takes mental fortitude. I still struggle with diet and nutrition.
I'm not as disciplined as I should be. I use to count my macros all the time. Weigh out my food. I still do a few time a few time a year as I transition from bulking and cutting to remind how I should be eating.
I agree with your aproach and practice something similar most of the time. I stick to simple basics and grow. I leave harsh compounds like tren, all the exotic blends and funny named reserch chems for the pros. Most of us just need their test levels a little elevated to become anabolic and from there it's all about food and training. Great post bro
Every once and a while I'll try a new approach or a more advanced compound, but even at that it's still 2 compounds at the most, maybe an oral. This will be my first time using an oral in a while.
Keep it simple is as easy as it gets. Just eat train and grow.
Pretty much. For a guy like me it's all I need. I keep it pretty simple.

Richard.SimmonsGreat Post ! I was hoping you were going to add Eq when I was reading this. Basic is just about all you need. I would also consider a Deca or Sust. It's always nice to see post like this. Your 100% correct lifelong Health.
I was so close to running EQ, but my BP is on the higher side of normal and I already deal with slight anxiety. I'm fine with just Test. I was afraid EQ would affect me, but ran Tren last year like a dumbass. It had been a couple years since I had and fell in its trap.
I like EQ, DECA, Tren and Mast. Testosterone Compound as a base goes without saying. I am 6'2'' 251 so I don't really need more mass, I need to cut. I love how Tren melts the fat off me, I counter the sides with Mast and caber/ai/sarms if i need to.
For me, I notice that people go way too high on their Tren dose and talk about wanting to fuck then kill their cat at night. Why not halve your damn doses and watch Batman Returns or something.
Batman Returns is a classic. I think the Dark Knight may be my favorite.
