First cycle
Current stats : I am 33 years old. 5'7. About 150-155 pounds max. And 12% body fat. I have about 5 years of hard training under my belt and gained about 25 pounds in the first 3 years.
My diet is clean with about 3000-3500 calories a day consisting of 40% protein, 40% carbs, and 10% fats. Gains were ok the first 3 years with minimal gains the last 2 years.
My ORIGINAL plan for my first cycle (after I decrease my body fat to at least 10%)
500mg Test E a week, for 12 weeks,injections of 250mg on Monday/Thursday.
Also 500mg of hcg 5000iu a week for 13 weeks injections also 250mg Monday/Thursday
0.25mg of arimidex every other day for entire cycle and also for 2 weeks after final injection.
pct for 4 weeks starting 14 days after my last injection, consisting of nolvadex and clomid.
Nolvadex dosage as follows: 40mg everyday for first week and 20mg a day for the next 3 weeks.
Clomid dosage as follows: 75mg every day for the first week. And 50mg a day for the next 3 weeks.
As I said this was my ORIGINAL plan for my first cycle but after having some responses on another thread I made, I am considering tweeking the Arimidex , Clomid and Nolvadex dosages a bit.
Any recommendations from some older guys that have been in the game for awhile would be highly appreciated. And of course anyone else with more experience than me(which Im sure is everyone lol)
feel free to share ur thoughts.
Thanks a lot

A big, nasty, all out dirty bulk is what you need bro........... go on a seefood diet...... what i mean is if you SEE FOOD.. any and all food. eat it!..... any type of calorie is a good calorie to an Ectomorph.
Check out our weight gain section..... member MAKWA has got a superb post up in there which will explain in detail the route you must take to break out of being the classic hardgainer morph.

I agree
If you genuinely eat 3000-3500 cals per day and you are 150lbs you have a medical problem. Do you weigh your food? Are you sure you're eating that much? Honestly nine times out of ten when people say they eat x amount in reality they don't.
x2, especially if you're eating nothing but lean meats and hamster food. Maybe your diet is "too clean" if you're not able to breach the 150lb barrier.
×2with markwa , im 5'8" and I started this current cycle at 193 ,which is a little under for me , im coming off a accident and minor survery. , way to light bro
AnonWell your weight is a factor and makwa gave you some good advice to follow. But you're a grown ass man and you have done some research as opposed to most of the shit I see on here lately. Standard pct would be 4 weeks nolva 40/40/20/20 and clomid 100/100/50/50.
I would say leave out the hcg for a cycle this mild, I dont feel its necessary. Plus until you know how your body responds to estrogen and if you need arimidex or not is another factor. Hcg can raise estrogen levels so until you know how your body responds to estro sides leave the hcg alone.
Research the side effects from high estrogen. Listen to your body. Arimidex probably wont be necessary until week 3 or 4 and if you feel the need to add it in start low, like 0.25mg e3d or eod. After about a week or 2 using the arimidex get bloodwork done to see where your estro is at. Too high or too low and you will need to adjust dosing accordingly. Once you get the dose dialed in it makes life much easier.
150lb @12% BF, you have a lot of natty growth potential ahead of you. Maximize that first. If you are considering yourself a hardgainer and your gains have stalled start with this:
