+ 1 Very first Pin, Very first Cycle

ad

Ladies and gentlemen:

I decided to write this because, You guys have really helped me at Eroids to understand and gain knowledge and information about steroids and cycles, and I really think it is beneficial to talk about it and learn from the mistakes and errors you tend to faced when you guys get to do it.

As of Today 1 December 2013 I began my very First Cycle. After doing a lot of reading from many of your "subject experts" with experience. I decided to use this cycle(see below) as my first cycle, which I really think it is pretty basic and easy to follow. My stats again are Male, 35 y.o., 132lbs, i have been running and working out for almost 15 years, I am diesel just not big at all. (but that will change because of my new goal). Also, Diet is extremely important, specially for a hard gainer as myself, so make sure you are actually aware of your food intake.

Weeks 1-10: 500mg Test. Enanthate per week (2 injections of 250mg, Sunday Morning, Wednesday night)

Weeks 1-12: .5mg of Anastrozole Every other Day (EOD)


PCT starts week 12, two weeks after last test shot
...

Week 1&2: 40mg Tamoxifen (nolva) per day

Week 3&4: 20mg Tamoxifen (nolva) per day

I do have to state I had a hard time finding Anastrozole because it was usually always sold out from many of the top rated trustable sources and that was the main reason why I did not start my cycle earlier as I wanted to have all my items with me to ensure i have everything at hand. But this of course helped to read, read, and read about cycles and what to use, the different many opinions and the many different experiences many of you had. So I decided to keep my cycle very basic, as I am not sure what reactions I will have if any. I even visited my doctor got blood work done and I requested everything to be checked out on me from lipids, to hormones to ensure I am healthy enough. My doctor looked at my blood work results and he said everything was perfect!

My first pin, which i just got today around 0910 am was quite interesting. I woke up around 6 am because I was sort of anxious about it.Since, I had everything planned. Before I pin myself, I performed an entire inventory of all the items to include my notes and my calendar. I had gloves, hand sanitizer, 4 alcohol swaps (i only used 2 but i had more available just in case) 1 10ml Vial at 300mg/ML of test E. I used 23g 3cc 1 inch with syringe needle to extract from the vial, and i had a 22g needle inch and 22g 1.5 inch. All these items were on their original sterile packages. I also had gauze available and my sharps container closed by. I lay all items and all injections on a towel and I think I really stared at them for about 1.5 hours (ha ha).

I am not going to lie I was nervous. Because, even though I brained washed myself to do this over and over and I ever practice pinning items such as oranges, it is not the same when you actually have to do it to your body. I visited www.spotinjections.com everyday for the past 3 weeks, just to ensure I knew where exactly to pin and I even washed many people on youtube videos doing it so I had an idea of what to expect. I decided to take a hot shower not only to calm myself a little and relax but also just to ensure my skin was clean. I do recommend any bacterial body soap before going into any procedures just as my doctor states.

So, I finally grabbed my vial opened by flipping the "flip cover", then grabbed my 23g inch 3cc syringe and pull the plunger to my proper intake which I already stated above. I am not going to explain this a(bout my measurement) because from experience i was confused for weeks of how much to input in my syringe for my cycle, and my vials, and the type of needles and I do not want to confused anyone. So I inserted the needle in the vial ensuring the vial was upside down, then I push the plunger all the way in and then I pull it the back for the desire ML amount. I actually when a little over my desire amount because of any residues i may loose if any, nothing really exaggerated. This took about 30-45 seconds to fill to the right amount.As many of your "subject experts" already probably noticed, I was so nervous I forgot to wipe the cover of my vial with alcohol just as an extra sterilized step, but i was nervous, and I really hope since it was a brand new vial it was clean enough to not get me any sort of disease.

My next step was swap the needle to my new 22g 1.5 needle as I am inject my right butt cheek. as soon I did that I got scared because of how really long the needle looked to me. Seriously, that thing was not going inside me, It was too long!!! I seriously recommend you guys having different sizes available in case you get scared like me (ha ha). I ensured also my needle syringes are interchangeable and are all sterile from new or unopened packages. So i decided to go for the 22g 1 inch. I opened my alcohol swap and wiped down the site of my cheek with it, and waited for it to dry. I pull my skin or stretch it a little to aliviate pain, and sort of like inserted the needle gently and with care as a "dart". I did not feel much pain but a little pinch, I watched as the needle went in, 1st quarter of the needle, then half of the needle, then the 3rd quarter of the needle, then the entire inch of it, and it only felt as a pinch not painful. As soon It was all inside me, I looked for blood and aspirated. This of course told me,It was clear for me to start plunging the test E in, and I did that by pressing on the plunger gently and slowly. It took about 25 to 35 seconds for the test to go inside my body. It was more of a burning sensation but nothing I could not handle. I definitely felt the warm liquid inside me which was sort of weird. It was done. I started pulling the needle back carefully, with the gauze I just clean incase there was any blood or residues on my cheek but there was nothing in the area coming-out. I put a bandaid on it, just to be safe. I also safely put the cover back in the needle and threw it inside my sharps container and so all other needles were inserted in the sharp container as well. I cleaned and picked up all the area, I also putt the flip cover on my vial of test as I have more to use on Wednesday. Then I washed my hands. and wrote it on my calendar notes.

This was my very first pin, and it if it wasn't for doing the research through you guys, I would have not come to it without all the knowledge you need to gather before doing this.

I am looking for your feedback and i am pretty sure many of you are going to laugh.

Thanks

Cool first pin story Bro Smile
On pins, I bought 20 gauge pins attached to the 3cc syringe and used them right out of the package for drawing oil. You can buy assorted needles to swap out after you have drawn the oil.

I read to many PIP stories about people not pinning deep enough in the glute, so I elected to go 23g 1.5" for glute pinning. The pain is absolutely no different with the extra half in. of needle, and you can be sure it's not going to be too shallow.

How many CC's of the Test-E did you load in the syringe? I too scratched my head on this for a couple weeks. Settled for about 7/8 of a CC.

Congrats Bro, they just get easier to do from here.

oh, one more thing. Get to know the feel of your nipples, and the space behind them. You need a clear understanding of what your nip feels like before the time when estro sides become possible. Your mind will start to play tricks with you, leaving you wondering if your tit always felt that way... or is it a new lump.

Hey thanks so much for the feedback. I was just a little intimidated by the length ... I am pretty sure I will be using my 1.5 next...and yes I settled around 7/8, i was seriously so confused about for many weeks. Many people also tend to tell you do this or do that but they don't offer the facts ...

what about my nipples ? check behind my nipples ? i don't know .. i mean how ?

Deadlifter85's picture

ya thats good advice actually. Just feel them, see how it feels to push on them. The sensation will change and they will get "sore" if your estrogen gets high. Also note the shape, if they begin to become more oblong shaped that could be a sign of trouble. and most importantly check to see if you feel any existing lumps or bumps behind them and in the half inch area or so around them. That way you can be certain if anything is changing. Otherwise ya 4-5 weeks from now you might be staring at your nipples wondering "did they always look like this"

I use a 22g 1inch for everything also. I tried a 25g 1.5 inch a few times but for the life of me I cant push the damn oil thru that pin. It takes too long and I end up shaking and thats the last thing u wanna do, so its the 22 for me. I forgot to heat my oil before injecting the first few times also, that makes a pretty big difference in how hard you have to push the plunger while injecting. I started on a Wednesday and am 5.5 weeks into my 1st cycle, the PIP isnt bad anymore and things are really starting to take off. You will enjoy it. Good luck bro!

I also forgot to wipe the top of the vial my first time pinning. Seemed like so many steps to remember and I forgot that one. Felt like an idiot and was kind of nervous about it for a day or so. Everything was cool though.
It sounds like you've done a lot of research and taking this seriously. Enjoy your time on. You'll feel like a beast in no time :-)

Thanks ... Smile I somehow feel very alert after it .. is that weird? Maybe This is because i am really excited about this..

Neverbigenough1979's picture

You will get a rush every time you inject. I do!!!
Plus every work out after that first pin will be a amazing !

This is a correction to my typo about my cycle, It is just missing some information and I apologize. This is what my cycle really looks like. I guess I was just nervous this morning.
My first cycle will look as follow.

WEEK 1-10 Test -E 500mg/ml (2 injections a week of 250mg/ml {1 sunday morning - 1 wednesday night})

WEEK 1-12 Anastrozole .5mg Every Other Day

WEEK 4-12 HCG 500iu (2 injections a week of 250iu on the same days a TEST E not using the same syringes)

Post Cycle Therapy STARTS WEEK 12 (2 WEEKS AFTER LAST TEST SHOT)

PCT will be

WEEK 1 Nolvadex (Tamoxifen) 40mg and Clomid 100mg a day
WEEK 2 Nolvadex (Tamoxifen) 40mg and Clomid 100mg a day
WEEK 3 Nolvadex (Tamoxifen) 20mg and Clomid 50mg a day
WEEK 4 Nolvadex (Tamoxifen) 20mg and Clomid 50mg a day

You should be doing HCG from week 1 to the week before you start PCT. You start shutting down from the very 1st injection.

You really only need to frontload your PCT for the 1st week. So drop week 2 down to week 3 dosages

ADR01's picture

why is that ?Can you please provide me with the knowledge.

WhyNot's picture

You are running a medium length cycle. You are not running any 19-Nor compounds. You are running hCG which will help with maintaining function in your testes.

Both Clomid and Nolvadex have relatively long half-lives (5-7 days) compared to the dosing schedule (Daily).

So the idea with a higher dosage in the beginning is to front load the compounds. By doing it for 2 weeks instead of one, you're going to raise the levels to high, and with your cycle that is just simply not necessary. Sometimes less is more.

Hope that helps.

ADR01's picture

That is an excellent answer thanks a bunch seriously. I will adjust my cycle.

WhyNot's picture

You are welcome. The other piece of advice is get blood work done BEFORE you start your cycle so that you have a reference range to know if you're successful in your PCT endeavors.

Getting blood work done 5 weeks into your cycle is a good idea also, and will help you fine-tune your AI.

ADR01's picture

I did blood work this past month on nov 13th as posted on my post above .

WhyNot's picture

You got the easy part down. Now it's time to focus on the most important part, diet.

I wish you the best of luck. Let us know how it goes.

WhyNot's picture

You need to run HCG from the start of your cycle towards the end of your cycle at a dosage of 500 IU per week, split into 2 equal 250 IU injections.

Your PCT should consist of Clomid AND Nolvadex and nothing else.

Hope this helps.

Hey Thanks so much for the heads up, I apologize, i typed the wrong cycle from my notes. I am retyping my cycle again right now.. I apologize again.

WhyNot's picture

You don't need to apologize. I just saw that it was missing, and I figured better to be safe then sorry.

ADR01's picture

Thanks again!! I just reposted my cycle again. Also, I will be posting pictures of my HCG. I had such a hard getting it.

Spot injection.com has some really painful spots to pin brother ! Also using a 1" pin was a good choice.
