For the new member, asking for cycle advice can be a big step. It can be a little intimidating and a huge minefield of contradictory information. It can therefore be a pretty frustrating experience for someone new to steroids who feels they want a simple answer to a simple question such as "what should I run?"

The reverse can also be true. It can also be frustrating for those giving advice, especially when it falls on deaf ears. This can largely be avoided by doing some research beforehand. After all, you're not just going to spend your hard earned cash on something you know very little about are you? You wouldn't just inject potentially damaging hormones without being as prepared as possible would you?

So, let's have a look at the resources available to you here.

Groups section, beginners cycles. Hopefully by the time you've arrived here you know some basic terminology etc. there's very little not covered here for the first time user.

Magnifying has search at the top. Just about everything steroid related has been discussed here. Stick a search in, you'll see what I mean.

Want to find out if a source is any good? There's a whole load of reviews. You honestly don't need to post up "is thus source gtg", the data will tell you that. If you can't work it out from there, I'd suggest you put the pins and gear away until you can.

What next? You want cycle advice?

Here's what we do. We offer safe, conservative and sensible cycling ideas. Easy to follow and most significantly to learn how your body reacts to compounds one at a time. Key word, "sensible".

Here's what we don't do. Cycle advice to under 25's, nope. Cycle advice other than "stop" to those who clearly don't know what they're doing with their nutrition. We don't advise on DNP and Insulin. We don't want to review your cycle half way through. We don't massage your ego by telling you what you want to hear. If it's a mess, you'll hear it. If you don't want to hear it, don't post and run your cycle how you want. We're grown ups, don't get all sensitive and upset if a boat load of people tell you it's crap, if they do it's because it's crap, not to offend you.

If you want sensible, intelligent tried and tested cycle advice, welcome to a great pool of knowledge. If you want someone to tell you it's ok to run gear when it's an awful idea, eroids may not be what you're looking for.
