Just Beginning, TEST E or an HGH product
Im 19 and 155Ibs, I've taken Tri-Osterone Matrix and gained 15Ibs of solid muscle... however I've been off it for 2 months and cant find it anymore.
So I've been looking at starting a Test E cycle but Im not sure if its safe, I was looking at starting at 300mg.
I know that this is pretty serious stuff and was wondering if someone could help me plan a cycle out and let me know exactly what I should be doing?
I would rather take something like the stuff I took before because it was a taken orally and it increased my GH levels but I have no idea what products are out there and where I can get them. However, I don't want to buy anything from GNC or other stores cause that stuff does not produce the results I want.
Thank you and any help or advice would be appreciated

There are other amazing injectables.. But honestly you can't really beat straight up test. It's safe. Effective and feels amazing.
Those bottles behind the locked glass in GNC is a hell of a lot more dangerous than injecting a small amount of testosterone. There are no FDA regulations for the class known as supplements. Chemists for supp companies take steroid compounds, whether it test, tren or whatever, and add or subtract a bond of some sort in the chemical structure, put it in a pill and label it supplement.
When I was your age I went to GNC and bought a bottle of something I saw on the news, paying like 80 bucks for a 30 day supply. Within days my lower back was killing me. I realized the pain was my kidneys a few more days later when I pissed a little blood. I'll never touch another prohormone.
There is an FDA ban on "prohormones". However, products do make it into gnc and other stores as supplements before the government gets a hold of it and relabels it prohormone. That's why you can't find the product you took before, the supplement company took your money before the feds took it off the shelf.
Again thank you for your comments and advice it really does help
Take advantage of your natural testosterone production and start to diet and train hard, read as much as you can and you should figure out that you are at a serious advantage at your age. If you are like me when I was 19 and want to try something I would go with a low dose of test and you should get some good gains but take advantage of your youth and go with it.
First I just want to say I appreciate that you answered and gave a reason. It looks like the general conclusion is that I should wait and just take the small gains I'm making for what they are. So I decide that I am going to stay natural for the time being, thank you again for giving advice
WithdrawlIf you don't have the eating habits and training habits to grow naturally at your age, you won't do very well on steroids, and you'll more than likely lose most of your gains. You're natural testosterone is sky high right now. At your age you haven't even reached your natural potential. At 155lbs you've got way more growing to do, without steroids. If you are unable to do so, then you don't have the eating or workout habits necessary to do so. This is the time when you learn how to eat properly and train properly. It's a learning experience that should last for years. Once you have it down, then you can think about steroids and you'll actually benefit from them, rather than just put on some mass quickly, only to lose it a short after. Also, at your age, you stand to do more permanent damage to your natural testosterone production. Shutting off your natural test production when it's at the highest it's ever going to be will only cause you to have lower levels for the rest of your life. I've seen it a million times. Guys don't have the discipline, or the knowledge to grow naturally and they decide to take a short cut with steroids. They feel awesome on cycle and grow some, then when they come off they lose it all and a lot of times, they become worse than they were before they started because now they think they can only have muscle if they use steroids. Do yourself a huge favor and listen to the advice people on here will give you. A lot of us have lived and seen it all, lol. Right now at your age, diet is going to be the biggest factor in gaining. Start eating 4000-5000 calories a day and get your training down. For most teenagers, it's their calorie intake that is holding them back because their metabolism is so fast. At your weight of 155lbs I'm guessing you have a very very fast metabolism. Food is going to be the key for you, as well as learning how to lift properly for muscle mass. Everyone is different so you'll need to learn what works best for you through trial and error. It's a long journey bro, and right now, steroids shouldn't be a part of it.

WithdrawlGood choice man! It really is for the best.
honestly, brother, unless you are hypo-gonadal, sex hormone supplementation is entirely too risky for you at your current age. i know you probably feel that you've reached your genetic potential and, basically, have stopped growing.
truth is that your body didn't begin producing much test until you hit puberty. as your body progressed thru the various stages of puberty, you noticed more and more changes as the amount of sex hormones being produced increased. the latter stages were not all that long ago for you, my friend. unless you are hypo-gonadal, the parts of your body responsible for testosterone production have yet to fully mature. this won't take place until between the ages of 24-26.
once you begin supplementing, these parts of your body will begin receiving "negative feedback" signals from the brain, which in turn halt all production of testosterone and the proper functioning of the HTPA axis. doing so at such a young age, while the body is still developing and learning how to maintain homeostasis, puts you at risk of never fully functioning in that capacity. In layman's terms: you could very well become dependent of exogenous forms and wind up on TRT at a young age.
my advice: stay away from the prohormones (they are worse for you than the real steroids), learn about diet and nutrition (possibly take some nutrition courses and exercise physiology or personal training courses - you'll enjoy them), and focus on the fundamentals and learning what your true potential is for the next few years. THEN, if this site is still around, people like myself will invest our time into teaching you how to properly build a cycle and execute it.

You are getting great advice, and glad to see that you are taking it seriously. It might be interesting for you to get blood tests just to underscore what others have offered, and to give a baseline for the future. I am betting your natural test levels are >1000 at 19. One way to find out...
No ya I agree and ya I actually might do that just to see where I am out of curiosity
