Are your test levels low And that’s why you’re going on TRT? This is not a decision to be made lightly. Not a decision to be made at 25 unless there’s a medical need for TRT, which is relatively uncommon at that age. I made that same dumb decision at 25. 35 now, low T and on TRT for life. It gets real old sticking a needle in your ass twice a week for what will hopefully be another 50 years. Many people look forward to it in the beginning, but I promise that ends. Quarterly bloodwork from your doctor is pretty annoying too. No more long Esters, you’re limited to stuff like prop, ace and PP for 10 weeks max.

TRT is not something to mess around with on your own. It needs to be monitored by a doctor. A very high percentage of people have issues with RBCs. High hemoglobin and hemaotcrit. Thickening of the blood which increases risk for some very serious problems. And a handful of other issues.

Now onto your physique and the best plan forward. You’ve been out of the gym for 5 years. Your first year or so back training naturally you’ll gain like experienced guys do on steroids. You can put on 15-25lbs of muscle your first year training. And those gains are here to stay, there’s no fight to keep them. And it’s better for your body to gain that naturally over a year than in 3 months on gear (not that you’ll even gain that much pure muscle on 1 cycle). And the gradual strength gain as well. Blowing up in 3 months in size and strength after 1 month of training is recipe for injury, and just hard on your body with all that weight gain.

What I would recommend is spending atleast 1 year training naturally. Or more, until gains really slow, but atleast a year. Building a base, gaining strength, figuring out what works for your body in terms of diet and training. It’s a real waste to figure that out on cycle and not maximize your time while on. You only get 1 first cycle and you’ll most likely gain more on it than any other, so don’t waste it. And then when you’re done if you don’t have low T now do a PCT. It works. But you need to prove to yourself that you can gain naturally, because if you can’t you won’t gain much on cycle. Gear doesn’t make up for poor diet or training.

Get everything else dialed in for a few years before adding gear. Trying on diet and planning on the gym 4x per week is light years away from having done it. Too early for drugs in my opinion.

You should start the diet acouple weeks before the sauce so your body can adjust to the new calories because 3,000 calories will take awhile to get used to considering your taking in about 1,500 to 1700 now !!! and you will start to see new definition also get the gym routine down before starting to get saucey
Whats your goals

All else aside, nice art! +1

At 25, why wouldn't you want to pct? And also, why wouldn't you want to get your shit dialed in before hopping on gear? If I were to give you a suggestion, it would be to get, at MINIMUM, 2 more years of CONSISTENT gym time with nutrition and sleep. Your making a lifelong decision right out of the gates for something that you might find that your just not that into.
Edit: and pct after cycles until your old.

Find yourself a brown chick or good cooking white chick and have her force feed you rice and beans for a year before even thinking about steroids. Oh yeah, and smash weights every second you 2 arent in the bed smashing

Need some more info to give ya some tips man. How old are you? Are you starting trt because of symptoms or blood work? If trt is needed, you should know the exact dose in which to not be supraphysiological but on the high end of normal. What are the goals? What are your expectations? No offense, just my opinion, but if you are going to start trt regardless, I would reach some milestones without blasting first. Bf %, strength goal, whatever milestones u set. In all honesty, if u don't need trt, there's a lot you can do natty before reaching for the gear. The main things need to be in place first, diet on point (macros and cals all tracked), training- it looks as though you could spend minimum a year committed and consistent to a program in which you are progressively overloading. The "supplements" are not going to cover up the fact that there could be a lot done that the gear simply will not do. And if u are dead set on blasting, I would definitely have AIs and ancillaries on hand or use primo or mast for est suppression. Good luck tho man.

IMO You just need to be getting back into the gym again buddy and hitting it with some regular consistency again each and every week, hit the weights properly including the Big 3 exercises and then a couple of exercises afterwards to properly attack each of your main muscle groups thoroughly. No need to be thinking about any steroid cycles for at least 6 months to 1 year and then asses the situation. Sleep hard, train hard, Eat hard
