Just another update for anyone interested.

I decided that I'd take advantage of the fact I could slam on quality mass with this combo and upped my calories so I was gaining approx. 2 lbs a week, despite this setting me well past my competition weight. I did this for about 6 weeks, and ended up gaining roughly 15 lbs, while still maintaining my "abs". With my cycle nearing it's end, I began pinning ED for the last two weeks of the tren as well as cutting. I'm already down 12 lbs of what appears to be mostly chub and water weight, and my lifts are still rapidly progressing.

I flirted with dbol in sets of two weeks, as I am apparently gyno prone when running it for too long. I cut the caber back to as needed, since I kept my test at near HRT levels and always ran adex throughout my cycle to keep my E levels under control with dbol. I've got to admit, I love dbol despite it scaring the shit out of my when I noticed a slight lump under my left nipple. The pumps, feeling, and weight gain I got off the stuff was unreal when it was stacked with tren.

Sleep was sometimes hard to come by, but for the most part I was easily sleeping 6-8 hours a day. My libido certainly wasn't what it was when I ran test at 500mg/week, but I've managed to keep two very horny young ladies, very happy. Sometimes I wonder if they're running a cycle of test at a gram a week just based on their libido.... Then again, I think at that amount their clits would be bigger than my...

Anyways, to sum things up:

-Starting weight: 178 lbs

-Max Weight: 201 lbs

-Current weight: 189 lbs (I want around 185ish)

-Acne/Skin: Some backne that was easily controlable with a cleanser. Face was hit with a large one ever so often, but overall, it certainly wasn't like being 13 again.

-Lifts: My upper body lifts (Bench press/Overhead Press) have each gained near 50 lbs, and my lower body lifts are nearing the +100 lbs mark. I essentially just began by adding weight on each time I performed the lift, then when that began to stall, I went to weekly, which has been a thing of beauty. It's like being a novice lifter all over again.

-Temper/Disposition: I was told earlier this week that I have one of the most "loving" voices she'd ever heard, so I'm assuming that my temper has been in check. I'm also pretty sure this means that I've become gay since taking tren, so you guys should all watch out for that. Overall, I have been slightly easier to piss off, but driving aside (which makes me flip complete shit), I think a lot of the temper control stigma that's attached to tren is just hype.

Figured I'd bump with a little update for anyone interested.

So far things have been going very well. I actually switched the ratio up a bit, and went with 100 mg tren EOD and 50mg Test EOD. I can't say as I've experienced any sides yet, other than a slight increase in aggression, noticeable strength gains, loss of body fat, and a generally great overall feeling. I also opted to start with 250iu HCG e3d rather than 500 iu, and I've already seen my boys swell back up. I'll also be adding in d-bol to the mix soon, as I've decided to compete at a weight 10 lbs greater than what I currently am.

I'm intending to increase the cycle length to 8 weeks, doing the first 4 with EOD pinning and the second with ED pinning. I'm mostly doing this to gauge my own bodies reaction to ED vs. EOD. This cycle has actually been one big learning experience so far. I poked my first vein (no tren cough because I don't pin with the same needle I used to draw) , discovered the joys of pre-loading gear for the week, and learned that the first time you pin prop and tren, it hurts like a mother the next day.

I also wanted to give a thank-you to Roid Noid and everyone else that contributed some of the great advice I received. Though I know many aren't a fan of guys running tren at such an early point in the game, my experience thus far has been phenomenal and I attribute that mostly to the information I've found and been given on this site.

Bump. Updated the topic/discussion. Thinking of starting around mid-May or early April.
