First Cycle
Age: 21
Height: 6'1 , 185cm
Weight: 83kg, 182pounds
Lifting Experience: 2 Years 4 months.
Diet: Solid - I allocate $120 a week to food.
Personal BF estimate: 10%
I have had caliper testing done by a 3rd year sports scientist and it told me I was at 6%. I KNOW this is wrong looking in the mirror everyday. I store nearly all my body fat on my lower belly / hips and none anywhere else.
All lifts are 8+ reps (haven't ever done 1RM)
Deadlift: 180kg / 400pounds
Bench: 85kg / 185pounds
OHP: 50kg / 110pounds
I lift purely for looks and strength - I don't use it for anything functional as I don't have time for sports with my uni degree. I have all PCT on hand and just need to try find a source for the TEST in Australia... I have a couple concerns however:
1. I experienced moderate acne between the age of 16-19 and it gradually died off to the normal persons 'occasional pimple'... Am I much more likely to breakout on cycle? How bad can it get over the 12 weeks because it would almost become a deal breaker for me as my scars are only just fading away now.
2. How much can I expect to put on realistically - and has anyone got experience in hiding this from friends/roommates? The dangerous / negative stigma attached to cycling is hard to explain to people and ideally I don't want to deal with that.
3. Should I plan my cycle so my PCT isn't around important exam times etc? How common is PCD and can it really affect other areas of your life significantly?

21? well I say just this dial in your diet and your workouts
I did my first stack a number of years ago when I was probably right about your age. I also included only 8 weeks of test. Somewhere within the 3rd to 4th week, I was experiencing what I thought was significant lower back pain. It got to the point where I had to go and see my doctor. I was surprised when he informed me that it was not my back at all. I was however experiencing a very negative affect on my kidneys. Of course he advised me to cut the bull and stop taking the test especially at such a young age, it can be quite dangerous.
Of course this was quite a number of years ago and I am not positive to exactly how much I was taking. I also was very, very inexperienced at the time. Just be careful friend at such a young age. Your long term health is not worth the short term gains you may obtain.
BillLumbergh21-you got natty gainz to make still breh.
You did a nice job laying out a solid cycle for a first run. Props my friend.
However, these are my concerns. You're 6'1 and I'm 5'10 but we weigh the same amount. And I am definitely not a big guy. If you're prone to acne this is most likely going to flare that up again because your skin will get very oily on cycle.
At 21, you can grow naturally no problem. Go hard, eat big. You don't need to add test right now.
I think I am bigger than the general population but not big in terms of bodybuilding. I have 15 inch arms and they are my smallest thing in proportion to the rest of my body. That comment about the acne really disappoints me because it is my only serious worry. Is there anything I can do to combat the side affects - nothing seemed to work during my teenage years and I tried EVERYTHING.
I respect any advice given, but when in your eyes would be the right time to cycle? As much as I love it - I would say I am addicted to it - I don't want to body build to the level most people here do. I will never cycle above my natural limit as I don't want to have to keep cycling to maintain that. This would mean one cycle and I am out if I can maintain that size.
You seem like a smart guy. I would wait a few years and just continue doing research. Fortunately, I have never been prone to acne at all so I really couldn't advise you on that brother. If you want to make an investment on juice, you could always use that money to get a trainer who can plan out a nice routine and diet for you based on your goals. Just a thought.
My advice would be do some more years naturally. Your only 21 bro. your in some of your best years to grow naturally. Just get diet and training right. And stay dedicated
Thanks for the reply. Your concern/advice is appreciated.
