1st Real Cycle Advice
Ok, I call it my first real cycle because I have never used Test before. Only Winstrol injectable and anavar oral for two cycles.
So I have done some research and decided the following:
Test E 300mg per ML... Inject 1ML every 5 days for 12 weeks (600 mg weekly).
Weeks 8-12 add 50MG Anavar daily.
PCT to begin 2 weeks after last Test dose and to include:
Clomid : 100 mg daily first 3 days then 50mg daily for remaining 27 days
Nolva 40mg a day week 1 and 20 mg daily weeks 2-4
Stats:
46 yrs old
5'11"
195 Lbs
BF 16%
Diet will be spot on before I start.. Start date set for April 15th So i will work hard until then on both diet and training. Just had blood work done..Chelestrol was a little high but I can work that down before I begin (diets been shakey). Only other problem was a low CRIT (believe due to my Celiac disese ) . So my guess is some are going to say my PCT is lacking? And my main question is should I add the Anavar in week 8? Goal is to shed some BF and increase muscle mass by 5-10 lbs..
Thanks guys

Just watch your carbs and fats and you should be good to go, bro! Good luck on the cycle !
Ok..., everythings in hand and ready to go! Having full blood work done with a full physical this Friday and plan to start first pin on April 15th.
Heres the final layout:
Weeks 1-12 Test E 300mg/ml pinned monday mornings and thursday evenings.
Weeks 3-14 Aromasin 6.25mg ED..
Weeks 8-14 Anavar 50mg ED
Weeks 14-18 (4 weeks) Clomid 100/50/50/50 Nolvadex 40/20/20/20
Pins are 25g 1" selected for quad injections..Can I hit the glutes with the 1" if needed?
Diet is the last piece i am still on the fence about..I am hovering just under 200lbs around 15% BF. I would like to get the BF down to 11 or 12 from this cycle sooo I think my diet will consist of really high protien and stay under 2500 Cal a day with hard workouts including a solid hour of weights and 45 min to an hour of cardio a day. i am afraid if ai bulk diet (4 to 5K cal a day... I will not drop the BF I want to. Any final suggestions? Thanks!
I definitely like the cycle layout. Nothing too dramatic and with the right combo for your goals. Definitely see where you stand around week 8 and decide on adding in the Anavar. I think it will be a great addition to it regardless without it being overkill. Yes, it is a first cycle but adding a few weeks of Anavar towards the end in moderate doses will not hurt. Keep us posted on your results.
what size pins are you using? Most people recommend using a 25g 1 1/2 inch needle but trying to get a feel as i'm starting my first cycle in a few weeks.
Im going with 25G 1 inch but im shooting in my quads...
46 is not old! Viking is 51 and look at him. There is a whole room dedicated to 40 and over on here. I bet you would get a lot of good advice from some of the older vets. You do need to have labs drawn before you start anything though. Other than that I would do a test e with maybe a prop taper and good pct in place or trt schedule depending on your levels right now.
thanks! What would be a good PCT in your opinion? Or would it be dependent on what my blood work shows for levels?
I see a lot of talk about CLOMID/NOLVA combos but I also see a lot of comments calling for arimidex and HCG... I dont want to take tons of crap but I want to make sure I do it right since what I seem to take away from my research is that PCT is the most important piece of this. HELP... plan on starting in a month and haven't purchased my PCT yet...
clomid is for bringing back your nuts and nolva is for blocking estrogen during pct... layman terms
hcg is up to you, some people use it some don't. for the A.I. you can use arimadex or aromasin. I like aromasin because you can run it all the way into pct and by doing that not only can you lower you nolva dose but it makes clomids job that much easier.
Thanks strongman. I will post in the PCT forum as well for dosages and timing. By your reply I assume the aromasin is taken throughout the entire cycle?
yes
angusYou have two identical forums started. Maybe you need a MOD to delete one or combine them.
If this is your first "real" cycle just go with the basic beginner cycle of 500mg/wk test e. Split that dose into 2 shots per week so that you are taking a shot every 3.5 days to help keep stable blood levels (pin Monday morning and Thursday evening). Skip the anavar. With your diet on point you should easily be able to reach your goals of 5-10 lbs of muscle and shed a little fat along the way with using just the test e. Even if you do gain a little fat you will look better than when you started with extra muscle you will have gained.
Thanks for the reply. I figured by week 8 I would have a decent idea of where I stand and decide then if wheter or not to skip the anavar. sound fair?
Good idea. See where you are at towards your goal by wk 8. If you think you can achieve it by diet and training during the remainder of your cycle then just stick with the test e.
You are at that age where discussing trt with your doctor might be an option, if your testosterone levels are low and wearing down your day to day life. You seem kind of old to still be trying to cycle/recover, risky business in my opinion.
Who u callin kinda old?????? J/K. Point taken. I figure the worst case is I have a tough recovery and end up on TRT anyways...
Fair enough, keep us posted on your journey
I'd recommend Cycle: Testosterone Enanthate + Propionate Taper
