Yeah, I am a little dude... But you should have seen me before I started. This is 30+ lbs of muscle later! Genetics are not on my side, but I will beat them. ;)

Hmmmm I think there is a glitch in this pic...there seems to be a box over your quads so I can't see how defined they are
I like what I see though +1 from me ;)
Thank you! Yeah, the box should have been up just a hair, but hey... I am no professional photo editor. Haha. Thanks again. There should be more to show off in about 10 more weeks anyway.
I will keep you posted.
Well I was thinking more that the box should be removed completely loooooooooool ;)
;)
As mentioned before you have a good foundation to build on. Really focus on proportion as you should grow adequately with everything lined out. Make sure you know that although muscle will grow...tendons and ligaments don't so make sure you don't overdo it with stressing them too much...and get the essential supplements to take care of them. Also your CNS connection to your new muscle development is sometimes overwhelmed...the supplement taurine aids in this...might be useful once things get going. And you will get bloat from running Test-E so although A-dex will aid in some prevention don't think by upping the dose it will take care of it...A-dex dose should be increased if you have breast/nipple sensitivity or extreme water retention. That extra water/bloat can be managed after your cycle ends then you can really lean out and see the new shredded muscle you put on. Good luck and ask whatever questions you need to help you have a great cycle man!
Thanks, man! I appreciate the advice and will keep every bit of it in mind.
breakingfaceLooks like you already got some good advice, so Ill just add a few things. 5'10 170lb is a bit light, but not horrible. Just make sure you're ready to really eat, and not afraid to gain a few lbs of fat in the process.
Def. start off really light with the use of AIs. Gyno is more about test/estro ratios than about estrogen itself. Estrogen is needed for the production and metabolism of serotonin, so you dont want to crash it.
Good choice using Test E only, make sure you have patience while the ester is cleaved off and the test builds up in your system.
Good luck!
1jakd_hipyYou could always front load, I beleve either Zewi or Cdaddy just did a great article explaining why to front load.
breakingfaceI see your point. However, front loading is not a great idea for a newb. You want to mitigate the severity of a negative reaction; should there be one.
Thanks to both of you. I will keep the AI at 0.25 every 3 days. Also, I hope this isn't a bad idea... But I am actually due for my annual check up which includes bloodwork among so many other things. Do you think it would be a good idea for me to go to the doc and have it done there? I imagine I could just tell my doctor, considering the whole doctor/patient confidentiality thing, but Idk. I'd rather trust Eroids on this one than just walk in flaunting my unnaturally high Test levels.
1jakd_hipyYou're fine telling your doctor, if he said anything not only could it not be used in court but you could sue the shit out of him
Good, man. I guess I'll just be like "before you do the bloodwork, I want you to know that I have been using testosterone, and I just wanna make sure I am staying healthy while on... So my levels will be a bit high." I will feel kinda weird saying it, but I need to do it anyway. Ha. I will prob get it taken care of around week 8 (roughly around Thanksgiving).
1jakd_hipyHave him do a female hormone panel in you so it shows Test and E2 levels
Cool, man. Is it normal for me to ask for that? Haha.
1jakd_hipyWho cares? He should actually want to once you tell him your on, explain to him you're trying to make sure your E2 levels are in check
Okay. Yeah, that's kinda what I meant. I meant normal as in if it would be any trouble to him or cause any kind of problem. Idk, man. Just newbin'. ^-^
1jakd_hipyAll he does is put in the request so it's no extra trouble to him
1jakd_hipySolid base to start with from the looks of it, what are your stats and whats your cycle look like?
I am about 5'10 and 165-170 pre-cycle.
First pin was two weeks ago yesterday. Just using Test E (from Biogenetix) at 500mg/wk for 12 weeks. Split 250mg 2x, pinning Sunday nights and Thursday mornings. Also taking 0.25mg Arimidex EOD starting this third week (will bump up if I see fit). Enough Clomid and Nolva on hand for PCT for 2 cycles... Actually, even more Nolva because I ordered extra in case of gyno problems while on.
Diet is around 3,500 cals... 300g+ protein, about the same carbs, and MOST (def not all) fats are coming from my protein sources. Pre and post nutrition is solid. Sleeping 8+ a night. Beast mode when training, of course.
1jakd_hipyIt's good to see you did your research. I recommend starting the Adex at .25 E3D and adjust if needed, I doubt you will. Good luck and keep us updated if I could plus one you I would
Thanks, man! Alright, I will go with every 3. If I do feel like I need to up it, should I move back to 0.25 EOD or up the dosage to 0.5mg and stay at every 3?
1jakd_hipyStick with .25 and go EOD, also to comment on the guy below me if you can get bloods done before, do it and mid cycle then post PCT. I really don't think your gonna have to bump up unless you have underdosed Adex, I'm on 900mg a week of test as well as 600mg of EQ and I think my Adex is a bit overdosed cause I had to take it down to .1 every 3rd day to get my sex drive back. I'll be getting bloods in about 3 weeks so we'll see for sure.
I see that youve invested in your pct and even a backup pct. Good going, now get your bloods done on cycle after everythings in full swing. Heres a post I found very informative on it. You can dose your AI by how you feel, but its soooo much better to get bloods.Ive gone down that road and wished I hadnt. Get bloods so that way next cycle you know exactly what dose of AI you need. Any complications or small tweaks with your AI is lost time making the best of your gains.
