It’s gonna take about 9-10 weeks for the Eq to hit peak saturation, but it’s about 80% saturated at around week 7 if you wanna pull labs early. The main things your gonna wanna look at is Hematocrit, Hemoglobin, and e2. You could have prolactin related issues later in cycle from the Deca, if you’re not already on top of your e2 at that point.
If your body fat is above 20% you need to lose weight before you do anything. But if you want to run this get labs before you start anything to get a baseline and then get pull labs again in 4 weeks and watch your hematocrit and E2.
I need to update that I am at 18% now according to one of those pull scales. I am down 55 pounds in the last 6 months. Should I wait a little longer what would be the ideal body fat before starting?
The leaner you get before you start, the more productive your cycle will be. Several reasons why, longer runway before you get fat, insulin sensitivity, cleaner blood work. I'd suggest getting at least <15%. Run TRT test, Reta, and a calorie deficit first. You can make solid progress before actually starting a blast. I speak from experience
I appreciate it... I should be able to get there over the next couple months I will hold off till then.
