Introduction
Okay here is a cycle I wanted to add here, it is a typical bulking cycle. The classic Test, Deca, Dbol stack. This stack is intended to give very strong gains in both strength and size.
It is recommended to have at least 3 to 4 cycles experience before running this cycle. Nandrolone Decanoate is a very powerful compound. Certain ancillaries must be ran with a deca cycle to prevent issues. Deca increases prolactin and is known to shut down your natural testosterone system strongly, which is why we will be using things such as HCG, prolactin inhibitors, and a decent PCT. An AI is required for this cycle because test converts to estrogen, and dbol and hcg also will increase estrogen.

Also diet is extremely important in this cycle. You must have high protein and carbs in this cycle as well as very high calories. Keep sodium intake low, as this will help keep bloating down.

Compounds used
Testosterone - well it's obvious why this is our base. Test will keep things functioning properly during this cycle as well as provide decent muscle building. We will be dosing the test around 600mg. In general, you want to keep test dose 1.5 to 2 times higher than your deca dose. This is to keep your libido strong during the cycle.

Deca - this is going to be our primary anabolic in the cycle. Deca does a great job putting your body in an anabolic state, resulting in a perfect environment to build raw muscle. We will be using a 400mg dose. This is plenty of deca to build muscle and allows us to keep our test dose between 600-750mg.
Another great benefit of Deca is it will keep your joints strong. Deca increases procollagen synthesis, so your joints will benefit from this cycle. Deca also is excellent for strength gains, so having strong joints to match your strength is a good thing.

Dianabol - Dbol is the perfect addition to this cycle. A moderate dose of 30-40mg is enough to help kick start your cycle. The long esters of test and deca means it will take 4-5 weeks before they fully start showing results. The dbol will get things moving right away. You will notice increased glycogen storage and positive nitrogen balance right away from the dbol. So make sure to keep your carbs high during this bulk !

Arimidex - Crucial for this cycle. A dose of 0.5mg should be enough to keep estrogen under control. Test and dbol aromatize and deca also increases aromatization. You need to dial in your AI for this cycle. The arimidex will also help keep bloat away.

Cabergoline - Deca is recognized by the body as a progestin. With increased estrogen levels, this will result in increased prolactin. I will post a link about prolactin below. A prolactin inhibitor is a must for this cycle, caber reduces prolactin. Running cabergoline should prevent side effects such as deca dick, puffy nipples, and leaky nipples. Keeping prolactin down also reduces the severity of testosterone suppression at the pituitary.

HCG - Another crucial aspect of this cycle. HCG will help reduce severity of shutdown, and help keep your boys from shrinking.

Expected Gains and Side Effects
Like I said earlier, you will get very good gains in both strength and size from this cycle as long as your calories are high. High protein and carbohydrates are a necessity.
You can cut with this cycle, as with any cycle, but you may notice a little bit of water retention from these compounds. That is not to say it can not be done, but this is primarily a bulking cycle.

Side effects vary by the individual but typical sides from deca include bloating, decreased libido, and testicular shrinkage. Of course acne, aggression and hairloss are genetic and based on the individual. Deca is known to be easy on the hairline. note - It is not recommended to take finasteride with deca.
Dbol sides you should know by now, but include increased BP, bloating, heartburn, hairloss, acne etc..

Options/Variations
You can run any type of testosterone you like. If you run Test Enanthate or Cypionate, Your PCT will start 15 days after last pin. If you run Sustanon DO NOT start pct until 3 weeks after last injection.
Test dose is 600 but if you feel your libido is low you can bump up to 650, 700 or 750. Up to the user.
If you do not respond well to arimidex, you can run aromasin instead. Try a dose of 12.5mg every day.
Caber is not the only option, you can choose prami, or bromo instead. Read the "how to control prolactin" link for more information about prolactin inhibitors (dopamine agonists)
It is up to you to find your perfect AI and dose, this is just a guideline but use what works best for you. You can also run the caber into pct if you choose.

If you still notice a low libido, you can choose to add Proviron to this cycle. A dose of 25-75mg per day should be enough to take care of any libido issues. Check link below for more information on Proviron.

Also the dbol is optional. If you do not respond well to dbol or orals in general, you do not need to run dianabol.
If you choose not to run dbol, you can choose to run Winstrol. Winny can be added at 50-75mg per day the last 6 weeks of the cycle before pct.

One last option to add to this cycle for more advanced users is a test prop/NPP kick start. Test prop and NPP are shorter ester versions of test and deca. If you choose to do this you could start the first 4 weeks at 100mg of each every other day, in addition to the long esters.
