First cycle questions
ad
I just started my first cycle last week. I am doing a test only cycle with test cypionate. I ran the first week at 250 mg and I am doing this week at 375mg and will move to 500 next week. I bought some anistrozole as well that are 40 mg capsules. I should add that I am a 41 yo male that has a baseline test level of 226!!!
My question is, one, when should I begin to feel the effects of the test? What will those initial effects be? And what should I expect overall in this first 12 week cycle? Second, when should I start the anistrozole and what should the dosage be? I have read that the dosage should be around 25mg per day. If that is the case, can I take it 40mg every other day??
Thanks for any help.

Majik's right. 15% or lower is ideal. At 226, that sounds like TRT to me too.
It is good you are thinking about this. At that BF, keeping E in check is even more important.
Nolvadex
Yes, I wasn't very clear. I have 1 mg capsules of anastrazole. I was planning to use for on cycle support. I also have nolvadex capsules that I plan to use pct. I also thought the anastazole would be in pill form when I ordered.
My height is 6'1 weight is 240 with around 22 to 24 % body fat. I have been training 6 days a week for 18 months and have shed 45 lbs in that time. Prior, I trained all throughout high school and college.
congrats on the weight loss. Already a great accomplishment!
56tooYou can keep doing what you're doing. If you have some prop start pinning that eod or e3d until the cyp kicks in then u can drop the prop
What's "anistrozole", whatever.. 0.25mg EOD enough
thats why i asked if he planned PCT
did you plan any PCT?
Test should begin to kick in anywhere between weeks 4-6, lets just say when it kicks in you will know. For this cycle i would just hold of on the AI until you notice any sides like, swollen or itchy nipples. At this point jump on the adex at .50 eod.
Thanks for the reply. I didn't expect that kind of time before it kicked in. Is that because I used test cypionate? Instead of prop?
Yup its a long ester. I usually feel it right before or right on week 4, everyone is diffrent so thats just a guess. Remember it also hangs around a bit after your last pin, so start your pct 14 days after your last pin. How many times a week you pinning bro?
I am pinning every three days. Is it possible to switch over to prop? or should I just be patient and wait it out? As you can tell I am a little anxious!! It took me forever to take this leap and now I am so damn excited I cant wait! lol. I have noticed no sides at all, except it seems like I have a mild headache quite a bit. Blood pressure is good though.
You can switch but personally I would just stick with the test c and just taper off with prop. Also next week when you hit 500mg leave it at that for the rest of your cycle, if you keep adjusting your dose your plasma levels are going to be all over the place, sending your blood pressure on a roller coster ride.
