Test E dosing
Just ordered Test E 250. I've read so much I'll nfo on the web about minimum and maximum dosage. Going to run a 10 week test only cycle. I'm not doing shows or anything. Just want to look good, be strong as fuck, and get to a place where I can continue to bust my ass for a few years and have a solid decade in my 40's. Ordered an AI to have on hand and clomid for PCT. I did a cycle of of dust 500 (split to twice a week) in 2019. I got big as shit but the pip was fucked up!! Even got infected once and had to get sliced. So I'm going a little more subtle this time around. Had ZERO sides on that cycle besides big water retention and that dumb ass pip issue. 41, 190 lbs, and muscle memory from the infantry for 6 years in the early 2000's allows my body to jacked real quick as it is. I don't need the "why bother with the roads" questions. My mind is made up for my own dumb ass reasons, lol. Question is. ... Will I still get somewhere going with 250 or 300 a week for 16 weeks? Or should I just hit the 500 for 14? Also.... I've read to just go with the AI automatically to be preventative. And I've read to just have it on hand due to the fact that my body will be overloaded with test while "on" and it's stupid to do AI for any reason other than as needed for a Test only cycle. Hope you guys can share some experience, and not just point me to literature. Thanks fellas.

Alright fellers....
Decisions made and game plan is done. I think I got it down. You guys played a HUGE role in education on this, so I want to run official plan by you.
Nolv, clomid, aromas, test E 250 (edited TMI)
Test levels are strong right now. I'm healthy and fit. Test 250 on Mondays and Thursdays. Going for blood work on week 4 the day before I start low dose AI so that I know my estro and test levels before AI and can adjust or discontinue use once results come back. I'll go for another blood test just before i start PCT and adjust that dosage according to results. Going to drink crazy water and drop my sodium intake, while upping my potassium and antioxidants (berries and shit). Also taking fish oil and Cordycepin. Going to altnernate weeks with calorie surplus and deficit while maintaining high protein throughout the cycle. Intense weight training with light cardio on surplus weeks and high intensity crossfit training with low weight hi repetition on calorie deficit weeks. Will suck it up and maintain this regimen for 3 - 6 months after PCT even if I have to literally drag myself out of bed to do it. (Edited for too much personal info) Life has taught me that with a strong mind and will, you can suck it up and push through ANYTHING. I think that will even apply to testosterone and estrogen being toyed with on a cycle!! HTMU with any tweeks or changes you recommend!! Thanks again gents!! Looking forward to hearing your input!!
Your bloodwork timing is all wonky. Draw bloods after you have been using your AI not before. Hence, week 6, two weeks after starting AI so you know whether or not to adjust dose. You don't test before you start your PCT. You test 2wks after you finish PCT to see if you recovered.
Either bulk or cut. Not very efficient trying to do both. Can either do one right or half ass each if trying to do together.
You also don't cut after PCT unless you want to ensure loss of any gains you achieved.
Awesome advice from everyone!! I truly appreciate it. I think that making sure I read every single thing I can, and then backing that up with real world experiences from you guys, is DEFINATELY going to give me everything I need to do this as safe as possible, and get the most out of it!!! My gear is still in transit, and I'm not going to just start sticking myself like last time, lol. I have time to do it right and learn. Thanks gentlemen!!! What eroids has done here is awesome. I'll bet this site being here has impacted the community in great ways as far as getting educated before tossing shit in your body.
Thanks guys!!! I actually had a blood work up done a couple months ago. Just have to figure out which abbreviations mean what, lol.
agreed with guys about 500mg 12 weeks
AI only after blood work on E2 (on 4th week or after 4th week). maybe you do not need it
Everyone keeps stressing this mid cycle blood test. Is this just the normal testosterone blood work, or is there another test for the estrogen stuff?
the most important thing you are looking for with this mid-cycle test is your estro levels. This how you learn how to dose your AI which is one of the most important aspects of a cycle. Since this is essentially your first cycle, don't just keep your AI on hand. Start it four weeks in and adjust as necessary after that based on your bloodwork. Read this.

Dustined83I would run 500mg for 12 to 14 weeks. That's a starter cycle and adds weight strength and less sides. just grab clomid, hcg, and nolva for pct.
Mcos500mg for 12 to 14 weeks is sweet spot
AnonI'll help you out.
At age 41 with past cycle history you really should get pre-cycle bloods and see where your natty T levels are. Could be TRT time. Either way it would be good to know where your levels are before getting on cycle. I used to bounce back with PCT after cycles just fine when I was younger, now that I'm close to 40 not so much. It's just the way it goes.
You wanna research first cycles in the forums. It's been years since you cycled so you're starting over. A simple Test only cycle would be the way to go. You need an AI on hand and on cycle blood work is the best way to dial in the dosage or find out if you need it or not. You do need an AI on hand for sure tho.
The dosage, 250mg a week or 500mg a week, you're gonna get shut down either way. I can't make that decision for you and wont try.
Your PCT isn't enough imo. You need Clomid and Nolva for PCT.
RustyhookerDidnt you just have another forum? Why did you delete it and start over? Looks filthy like you lied already. You had a ton of replies
You really should spend a few hours reading so you know what youre in for sir
I did have another post. I didn't lie about anything. I just tightened up what I wanted to ask, after reading all day. When I posted the first one, I was all over the place and really didn't ask a specific question. I justed blabbed. Sorry if it seems that I am being dishonest. I am NOT. I apologize.
RustyhookerSimple test only with your ai on hand, blood test week 4 to see if ai and dosing plus good pct. Food and gym makes goals happen
Molinin302I'm curious about the infection, I'm doubtful it was the product.
Wish I could figure out how to add pics to this post. I'm not completely sure it was the product either (it could have been though). If may have just been stupid rookie mistakes.
Molinin302The only reason I suggest otherwise, is you said you had an infection that had to be excised "once". If you had a bad vial, you would know buddy. Believe me lol. Listen to Shred up there, you're not going to get more solid advice than that.
RustyhookerHis last post was 500mg sust which would be some nasty pip.....been there...oops. Folks advised normal dosages, pct, bloods...all the awesome info but dude deleted and here we are?!?! I figured he would return with simple cycle pct and blood ideas. I dunno....lol
PcushionSust 500 he made a rookie mistake. Ouch!
RustyhookerIt would be an eye opener...ouch
My last post was asking what I should take for a simple cycle. Because the LAST cycle I did was sust 500, and jacked me up at injection sites. (Just like above). After much reading, I have narrowed down my cycle products, and now trying to get the dosage and timing ideas. You have heard it a million times I am sure, that every website says something different. I joined eroids to talk to real people about real experience in tandem with the literature, so I can make the best decisions possible.
RustyhookerPip . Chose normal gear and youll be happy. 500mg is a beehive
