First Blast
ad
This is the last week of a 12 week blast @ 600mg Test-E per week(First go at this). Arms are 3/8" larger than before, with zero bicep work(torn tendon). All lifts through the roof. I think I'm a little different than most as the strength boom didn't come until week 9. As hard as it is to do I'm sticking with the original plan and going back to cruise, which sucks because I only really saw 3 weeks of size increase. Added a little fat, but not too worried since it's winter anyway.

If you just did Test-E @600mg/week then the strength boom at week 9 is normal bro. Test-E has a long ester and typically takes about 6-8 weeks to kick in. I get emails all the time from newbies wondering why their Test-E only cycle hasn't kicked in at week 3-4 lol. It's normal bro! This is why a lot of people also use Test-Prop or an oral at the start of a Test-E only cycle, to give their cycle a bit of a boost, as waiting 8 weeks is a bit long
With that being said, should a first cycle be only 12 weeks?
In most cases it wouldn't be wise to go for any longer than 12 weeks on your first cycle if you care about your balls. It would be wise to go for a Sustanon blend rather than a Test-E, as Sustanon has a mixture of short and long estered test compounds in it that you will feel start to kick in within a couple of weeks and maintain steady gains throughout the cycle. I would recommend 10-12 weeks sustanon @ 500mg/600mg a week, with a 4 week d-bol kicker for most first timers. If you wanted to throw an extra compound in with this then you could go for Deca @ 200mg/300mg a week.
Having said all this, everyone is different and I would need to know more about you to give more detailed advise...
