View Full Version : Ultimate Beginners Guide
General Over View of Steroid Use/Abuse
AAS are used to enhance our genetics, or even use to improve normal life. They DO NOT change a persons genetics, as well as they DO NOT cause severe agression (roid rage). More often then not the users with agression while on steroids have already had agression/temper problems in the past before even touching these substances. The uses of these substances stupidly will result in problems; thats all im going to say so if you want to see what these problems are then don't read on. Use in moderate doses, and keep everything in check. Have scheduled appointments with your doctor for check ups / tests.
Please understand that you are injecting and outside source of hormones, your body is going to naturally react to it based on its content.
The difference between use and abuse is normally in the persons goals. There is NO need to abuse these substances unless you are becoming an NPC/IFBB bodybuilder. So keep your doses moderate.
***MOST IMPORTANTLY, TESTOSTERONE HAS TO BE IN EVERY CYCLE YOU DO.***
Choosing a Substance(s) to Use for your First Cycle
Listed below are AAS that you can use for your first time:
Testosterone (Test Cypionate or Test Enanthate)
Deca-Duabolin
Dianabol (dbol)
Essentially you can use a lot of different substance in your first cycle. But these are the best ones to go with. You CAN NOT use Tren Acetate, Tren Enanthate, or Anadrol in your first cycle. These are simply to harsh.
Do Not, i repeat, DO NOT use Sustanon250 for your first cycle. You have to inject it everyother day for it to stay stable in your system.
PCT (Post Cycle Therapy)
This is when you are coming off of your cycle. Injecting outside (exogenous) hormones will shut down your natural testosterone production. The objective of PCT, is to kick start / boost your natural test production back to normal levels to maintain the gains you have worked so hard to achieve. You can not use over the counter test boosters for this. It must be one or more of the substances listed below:
HCG
Nolvadex
Clomid
Toremifene
Nolvadex is one of the most commonly used PCT substances
Clomid is a lesser common substance used due to its side effects that are present in almost all of its users. Acne, depression, etc.
HCG, is more commonly used when a users cycle contains many substances or substances that can almost completely shut your natural testosterone down. (tren, deca)
Toremifene is rather new, in some studies it has shown to be just as good (if not better) as Nolvadex with less side effects.
Sample Cycles
Test Only:
Test Enanthate or Test Cypionate @ 500mg every week. (week 1-12)
Nolvadex - 40/20/20/20/20 (week 13-17)
Clomid - 100/100/50 (week 13-15)
Pros: You get to find out how you react to one substance alone. So you will know whats going to happen when you have testosterone in your later cycles. Increased sex drive. Sense of well being. Happy.
Cons: Achy joints can become a problem. Possible hair lose if prone to male pattern baldness.
Test + Dbol:
Test E or Test C @ 500mg every week (week 1-12)
Dbol @ 30mg everyday, 30 min before workout (weeks 1-4)
Nolvadex - 40/20/20/20/20 (week 13-17)
Clomid - 100/100/50 (week 13-15)
Pros: Increased sex drive. Cycle is "kickstarted" with Dbol. More gains then test only. Great strength increase noticeable within the first 2 weeks.
Cons: Achy joints can become a problem due to the rapid increase in strength. Possible hair lose if prone to male pattern baldness. Higher chances of Gyno / Estrogenic side effects.
Test + Deca:
Test E or Test C @ 500mg every week (weeks 1-12)
Deca @ 300-400mg every week (weeks 1-10)
HCG @ 250IU every other day (week 12 only)
Nolvadex - 40/20/20/20/20 (week 13-17)
Clomid - 100/100/50 (week 13-15)
Pros: More gains then test only. Ligaments / joints will be more protected due to increased collagen levels.
Cons: Possible temporary Erectile Dysfunction ("deca dick"). More water Gains (bloat). Possible depression.
Injections
Don't be scared if your injection spot hurts the next day. You either injected to fast or the person/company that made it use a high concentration of chemicals to keep it stable. None of which will hurt you in any way. The pain normally subsides within 2-3 days after the injection.
The point when you worry is when the site is red and warm to the touch. Then you might have an infection, which you'll need antibiotics to take care of. This is why i say to have scheduled appointments with your doctor ever month.
For any of your cycles with long estered substances like Testosterone Enanthate, Testosterone Cypionate, Deca-Durabolin, EQ, Tren Enanthate, etc; You need to split your weekly dosage into 2 injections. Either Sunday/Wednesday or Monday/Thursday. Reason being this will keep the hormone at a high concentration in the blood stream throughout the cycle, resulting int better gains.
Ways to Control the Side Effects
Prone to hair loss: Finasteride(propecia)
Prone to gyno / extreme bloat: Adex (anastrozole) or Letrozole
Acne: Tanning, B5, wash twice daily, (accutane as a LAST resort)
Diet
Don't be a pussy and learn to eat. If you can't eat the amount of Calories you need in whole food, supplement in Weight Gainer. Find one with low sugar carbs and more complex. On's Serious Mass (http://www.******************/store/en/browse/sku_detail.jsp?id=OP-7142) <~~~ best one i have found and cheapest price. Slowly increase your calories over time to lessen the chance of fat gains. Don't go from 3000cals a day up to 5000 in one day lol thats just "special" of you. lol Slowly increase it by 300-500 calories a week. So week 1 is 3000 a day, week 2 is 3300 a day, etc and so on.

So you are making your decision to do steroids. Yes it is easy to see the benefits of them. You get bigger, you get stronger.But I doubt you have posed these questions to yourself. I want you to think long and hard about each one of them and if you either cant answer yes to all of them or are not comfortable with the answers then you are NOT ready to do steroids. So here they are in no order of importance.
1) Is your diet in good working order? Do you know what foods to eat, how many calories you need, when to eat?
2)Is your training program in order? Have you got the proper exercises for growth and the right number of sets?
3) Steroids are a Schedule III drug and possesion can land you in jail for a while, are you willing to risk buying them and face possible jail time?
4) Do you realize steroids arent Miracle Grow and a single cycle isnt going to give you the results you are hoping for?
5) Are you willing to give up drinking and eating all garbage food while on cycle?
6) Are you willing to accept all possible health consequences? Possible cardiac damage from low HDL, Possible liver damage, possible mental problems, potential to lose natural test production, gynocomastia, acne?
7) Are you willing to accept possible social consequences, alienation of family/friends, social stigma of being a steroid user?
8) Are you willing to learn the proper way to run a cycle not just listening to some schmuck in the gym who says "take this", what PCT is and how to do it properly?
9) Are you willing to stick yourself with a needle multiple times per week?
Think about these before you ask about cycling. If you can't honestly answer yes, stay the hell away from steroids

Nice post PG! It would make a good sticky...

Maybe some of them will learn something
Thanks for taking the time to write this up. It will help out a lot of new people and hopefully they read it before making threads such as:
Afraid of needles, DBOL only Cycle???
I had another question, since all you guys in this thread know what your talking about and I'll get serious answers. When the time does come for me to do gear, (few years) should I expect to lose hair? I'm probably going to run Test E for 10 weeks and maybe DBOL 1-4 to just start the cycle, and then of course probably Nov for PCT. I already have a "receding" hairline and I've pretty much had it forever. Its just where my hair starts. With only 1 cycle of TEST should I worry about the possibility of losing hair or should I be fine? THanks a lot guys.

Good post but you should start the PCT two weeks after the last injection of a long ester test like Test E not at week 13.
1 week after to play it safe. Half life of Test Enanthate is 10.5 days. if you wait 2 weeks (14 days) there are almost 4 days problems can arise. Also for Test Cypionate. Its half life is 12days, still 2 days.
Nothing much but its better for the first time users to play it safe, then be sorry. Once the user develops his knowledge of his own body; how prone to gyno he is, bloat, etc; then he have choose to go 2 week before PCT.

Then again we're adding more chemicals, more complications, more side effects, more things that could go wrong, etc.
Personally I feel to test the waters, 350 - 500 mg of enanthate depending on the persons weight in respect to their height and BF%. The only other anabolic necessary is a proper diet!

Well, we're talking first time users here. Too much arimidex or too much cabergoline have their own side effects. Especially in a world where the general consensus seems to be that more is better. Just an advocate of keeping it as absolutely simple as possible for the first cycle! Adding one thing at a time to judge the effectiveness and side-effect:benefit ratio of the individual user.
Not bashing you or picking on you or anything by the way! Just an opinion!

So no nandrolone and sticking to one thing at a time to judge effectiveness. But is it o.k. to just use Dbol by itself on your first cycle? I've been reading alot of literature and most people are recommending test with Dbol as a kick-off for first cycle. What's your thoughts?

Try test alone first. You'll like it, and so will the lady, or women lol.

not to sure how AAS would affect Nifidepine so i would say talk to your doctor. Other then that you just have to monitor your BP like you should be anyway, And note any big increases in BP level, etc.
Shouldn't be that bad though.

can we stack test e, dbol, and deca?
not for a first time cycle, that would be something to consider for a 3rd cycle
Do:
Test + dbol (first cycle)
Test + Deca (second cycle)
Test + Deca + Dbol (third cycle)
Or even
Test Only (first cycle)
Test + dbol (second cycle)
Test + Deca (thirdcycle)
Test + Deca + Dbol (fourth cycle)
Either way you look at it keep your cycles simple so that later one you don't require high amounts of substances.

For a first cycle(test-e only), do you have to use Clomid? I have read many cycles where guys only use Nolva. If a first cycle is supposed to be simple(only one steroid) to see how your body handles the substance, why use 2 pct products in your first cycle? You won't know how your body handles the Nolva by itself.
For a first cycle(test-e only), do you have to use Clomid? I have read many cycles where guys only use Nolva. If a first cycle is supposed to be simple(only one steroid) to see how your body handles the substance, why use 2 pct products in your first cycle? You won't know how your body handles the Nolva by itself.
you can do nolva alone and be fine. Its just that Clomid works faster at kickstarting the natural test. And then you finish is off with nolva, because nolva has less side, and take a lil bit long to kick up test. The difference isn't considerable, but there is a difference

Thanks. Also, I don't want to bloat up with water. Arimidex .5 mg eod is the fix for that right?

Some will tell you that it hinders gains. All it really does is keep your water gains less. So you are getting less gains but thats because you aren't putting on excessive water weight like other users that don't run an AI.

A safe bet will be to use arimidex only when you're cutting/preparing for a show. If you're bulking, use it only when you feel the gyno coming.

Start as low as possible and see what it does then up it if your still having problems,cause too much can slow gains.

I started at .25mg eod and it wasnt effective. So I up the dose to .5mg eod and it work well for my cycle(test/deca/dbol)

up test to 500, ;) should make a good cycle
test E weeks 1-14
EQ weeks 1-12
thats the best your cycle can get. EQ should be run 16 weeks or more, but you can't do that for a first timer. The cycle will make him eat like crazy and gain like crazy if he sticks to it

How do you know after you are done with your PCT that your body is producing test again? Do you just have to see your doctor and have a test test done?
Also how long before your workouts should you inject, or does it matter?

yes, test it at the doctors, hence you should visit them lol
injecting before or after didn't really have any physical effects on me, But i generally stick to either 2-3 hours before, or after.

Someone suggested to me that if I run my 1st cycle then I take nolva 20 mg every day for the cycle and carry on 3 weeks after end of cycle of test e at week 10.
Clomid I have been told is not necessary for the frist cycle though helpful.
The cycle proposed is:
test e 500 mg weekly week 1-10
nolva 20 mg ed week 1 - 13

you don't need nolva in there unless you are prone to gyno. Just run test e alone and if gyno (itchy nipples and/or lumps) starts then use nolva otherwise leave it for the end. Your cycle should look like:
Test E (1-12) not 10weeks trust me go the extra 2 weeks
Nolva (13-17) 40/20/20/20/20

It's my 2nd.stick to either
Test (12weeks) + Deca (10weeks)

Test (12weeks) + Dbol (6weeks)
I would probably encourage to use two injectables first, then try the injectable + oral in a different cycle. From there you can start mixing 2 injectables with an oral for your cycles

Thanks for the reply. I'll go with the Test and Deca then. I was wondering, in your OP it says to use HCG, Nolva and Clomid. Is it necessary to use all three?
Also, I've got some HGH. How would you say I should go about using this with my cycle?
Just one final question. Would the Test, Deca and liquid Dbol be ok for my 3rd cycle?
Lightning3
12-16-2007, 05:58 PM
With a test/deca cycle I would suggest start using HCG 6 weeks into your cycle and run it up to pct but stop before pct since HCG is surpressive. Additionally I believe you would be fine with either nolva or clomid. The HGH needs to be run for atleast 6 months to see benefit so you can't neccessarily encorporate it into this cycle per say.

So my cycle would be as follows?
Test Cyp - 500mg e/wk (wk 1-12)
Deca - 300mg e/wk (wk 1-10)
HCG - 250IU eod (wk 6-12)
Nolvadex - 40/20/20/20/20 (wk 13-17)
I already have the HGH so I want to use it before it expires. I guess I could use it to keep my body fat down while bulking up.

yes everyone says 40/40/20/20. i personally believe 40/20/20/20/20 is better

First cycle gains are usually high, so test only is recommend to "feel out" how you react to the drug, while still yeilding great results.

you can take it as PCT yes. Its not common because its a bit pricey. And 10% is just a good base to stay at. if you got more then say 15" you might not be injection deep enough into the muscle. which can lead to a slow absorption rate

Dbol has a short half life so taking it evenly spaced through the day is better, some guys, depending on their pills take an hour before workout, personally I just space them out throughout the day.
Skip using clen in PCT. It's highly catabolic and will shred you but it's not indiscriminate between fat or muscle so you need to be on cycle to counteract that. HGH and T3 for PCT is a much better combo, a 2 month run of that will cut you down nicely if you are in the sub 13% BF range.

First cycle gains are usually high, so test only is recommend to "feel out" how you react to the drug, while still yeilding great results.
The first cycle I did was a test e and deca cycle. I wouldn't really recommend that, but I knew what I was getting into. Still to this day, test cyp + deca + dbol (or drol) kickstart + tapering down with prop at the end is probably the most solid cycle I've ever run.
First timers should stick to one compound, it worked out for me, but you really want to see how you react to one compound and then start adding others in. So maybe a test e/c cycle first time, second time add deca, third time, add an oral kickstart etc.
Also, if you are thinking about running deca, make sure you run your test at a higher dosage than the deca or you could get deca dick which will royally piss the girlfriend/wife off, hell even masturbation is difficult =)

O.K., I hate to beat a dead horse to death, but I'm a little unclear on something someone asked earlier....and yes I did do a search. However, I'm unclear as to why exactly one could or should not use test & winny for their very first cycle? I'm new to this and very receptive to your information and appreciate it very much, but I was just curious to the answer of this as I had thought test & winny might make a decent first cycle...? But if I should absolutely only stick to test and either dbol or deca as you suggest, that's absolutely fine, and that's what I'd do. I want to do a lean bulk but have never used any PH/PS/AAS. So I know you guys say a first time user should do remarkably if everything else is done properly.
If the case is still that a beginner should not take winny, what then can someone (a beginner) take to cut with during cycle? A typical fat-burner? I'm not too keen about the jitters that come from these. Or perhaps an unmethylated oral winstrol (i.e. winztrol or furazadrol)?
Again, i'm sorry if this has been asked a zillion times.

winny doesn't do anything for a beginners purpose. A beginner is looking to gain muscle mass. As far as using winny at the end its personally pointless.
A beginner shouldn't use steroids to cut, you can do that fine with nutrition. But if you were to it would be Test P & Tren A.
Test P is only ok if you can stand injecting every other day. And Tren A is NEVER ok for a first or even second cycle.

Hey thx for replying. The nutrition thing is something that confuses the crap out of me.
OK, if I - a beginner - were to start a 12-week bulking cycle of only test (or perhaps test plus either DBOL or DECA) yet I wanted to get the most out of it, so I would increase my calories over time from say a normal 3000k/day to say 6000k/day. I'm the type who would likely achieve this calorie surplus by weight-gainer....that's just me.....seems more convenient that way.
But my question is, HOW should I then incorporate cardio? If the whole purpose of adding calories by a weight-gainer was to increase my mass, then wouldn't doing cardio cancel out the calorie surplus I had achieved by weight gainer? So I guess what I'm asking is if I'm going to sit there daily and increase my caloric intake to 5 or 6000/k or so per day, why even do the cardio if that just put's to waste the extra calories I had taken in during the day?
I'm not sure how this works....does someone who is on cycle only do fasted cardio in the morning to ASSURE they only burn fat, not hard-earned muscle? Or is taking in BCAA's or perhaps just Leucine before and after a cardio session ASSURE that only fat is attacked and muscle is spared? Is it normal for bodybuilders to only do cardio fasted in the morning before eating so that they can bulk but keep it as lean as possible? Or is it normal practice to just eat like a pig and eat whatever you want while on cycle so your calories are increased, and just not worry about fat-loss efforts until Post-cycle time comes?
I know this sounds like such silly questions but for some reason this is confusing to me.

i serving of a Weight Gainer is 1000-2000 calories. You aren't going to burn that off with some cardio. Cardio while bulking is to keep your repertory system fit. Your body has to adapt to the new pounds that you are putting on and the ability to get them blood.

i serving of a Weight Gainer is 1000-2000 calories. You aren't going to burn that off with some cardio. Cardio while bulking is to keep your repertory system fit. Your body has to adapt to the new pounds that you are putting on and the ability to get them blood.
simply do it for 30min 3x a week, nice a simple
^ So is this what the pro's do? (not that i'm anywhere near being pro by light-years)
Let me just point out that the reason I ask is because I'm 27yrs/5'9'' and 178 lbs. So I have somewhat of a gut that is not very visually appealing. Not a beer-belly gut, but one I would like to get rid of none-the-less. So say I begin a 12 week cycle of test/deca. Once I begin that cycle, what is it that I can be doing to reduce or eliminate the belly I have? I'm not fat of course, pretty ht/wt proportionate, but if there is nothing else in this life that I would like to do, is see this gut just go away. Which is why I asked earlier about the winstrol, be it real or the over-the-counter unmethyl kind. But if you advise against that, what can I be doing to flatten my stomach out while also taking a caloric surplus which is absolutely imperative for a cycle? Sorry for so many questions.

You can't expect both. If I were you I would cut for 8-12 weeks and then you will be ready to give it your all while on cycle. But that's just me.

winny doesn't make you cut, and only works if you are already below 10% bodyfat.
You can't bulk and cut at the same time. You have to choose one. Either do the cycle and bulk. Or change your diet and cut down.
your choice. Normally your BF will drop when you start a cycle, and will continue to get less as long as your diet is in check.

^ But why can't I just go ahead and start the cycle, and do a cal surplus as recommended, but in the mornings before I eat anything whatsoever can't I just do like an hour of cardio since scientifically I will only be burning straight fat? Maybe I could sip BCAAS during morning fasted cardio so that I can be positive my body will only be cutting into fat. Then once that's done and overwith, I can resume consuming a caloric surplus for my cycle....? No?

doing that even on AAS is still going to be catabolic. meaning eat away at your muscles. Sounds good on paper, but doesn't work in life.

Sorrrrrryyyyy for beating a dead horse.....but can't I take Leviathan Reloaded while on cycle to burn fat (adipose)? E/C stack? Or is taking ANY fat-burner while on cycle Stupid/Pointless?
Or perhaps while on test/deca, I could take oral trenadrol or propadrol, the over-the-counter unmethylated kind. Would that help?

ok once AGAIN.
either bulk or cut.
just because we use the word bulk, doesn't mean go get fat. No based on your nutrition (diet), you can stay really lean while adding on plenty of muscle mass.
First things first get your diet in check. And this isn't the place to ask about your diet

OK so I think I'll go with a 12-week TEST/DBOL stack, and take the unmethylated oral Propadrol or Trenadrol during the first few weeks to help me lean out. I think this should be a great combo.

That depends on what the 'beginner' used in their cycles? Dont worry so much about an intermediate cycle, and just choose a cycle that will help you achieve your goals.

Have read up a bit on Test E and concerned about the estrogen increase and water rentention using it when compared to sustanon 250.
Would 125mg sust 250 EOD be the better solution to test e in this case? Run this over 12 weeks and then nolva as mentioned previously as pct

one question....if your a young guy..22 say...how do you know if you are prone to hair loss? My fam has good hair hist but any other way? also I have pubertial gyno lingering....safe to say im at risk? can the gyno be controlled with a proper pct, AI or is it best to stay away completely?
drolfreak
04-03-2008, 12:27 PM
Gyno can be controlled to an extent with the proper ancilliaries, what that would be exactly though depends on the cycle.
As for hair loss its just one of those things, if its going to happen then its going to happen, lookinh at relatives is as good a guide as anything, but theres no way of being sure. Would losing your hair really be such a big issue?

x2
if you are going to do a cyce with nandrolone (Deca or NPP) or Trenbolone then you are going to need to have Cabergoline or Bromo, and B6.
For standard testosterone cycles, just grab something like Adex (anastrozole), Letro (letrozole), or Aromasin (exemestane)
here are the dosings:
Adex @ 0.25mg ED
Letro @ 1-1.25mg EOD
Arom @ 30mg EOD
The strongest one is Letro, then aromasin, then adex. I would encourage you to stick with Adex. it works perfectly and doesn't have an estrogen rebound.

Suppodly using any type of drug like finasteride either proscar or properica with deca will actually be worse on your hair than proscar and test or proscar and. Something about it together makes hair fall out, but proscar and others like test and other ones are suppodly safe.

so at the end finasteride is a good choice or a solution only with test.... with deca bad, with trembo bad , with dht derivated it has no effect...
so only with "only test cycles" finasteride works...

I haven't been able to find any information on what kind of PCT should be followed, if at all, for first time users (first time period). I've seen plenty of programs to follow for Test E 500, but not 250. My second cycle, I'll try Test E 500 with Dbol, but for now, i'm trying Test E 250 alone to see how my body reacts as a foundation. I was told that I don't need any kind of PCT with such a small doses of Test for this 12 week period. I had to do extra research to validate this, as I'd rather not end up with bitch tits and/or lose a lot more muscle, post cycle, just because i trusted one source; that i don't need PCT with Test 250 / week for 12 weeks alone (not stacked). Thanks!

you will be shut down also with 250mg of test so YOU NEED PCT
dannydxd
07-01-2008, 11:37 AM
So I'm guessing regardless what kind of cycle is taken, complex or simple, (Test 250/500, w/DBol, and/or w/Deca, etc), if your nuts shut down, the same PCT is followed regardless, ie, whether it's Test 250 or Test 500 I'd still follow (recommended here):
Nolvadex - 40/20/20/20/20 (week 13-17)
Clomid - 100/100/50 (week 13-15)
I'm sure there are individual tolerances, but is that the gist of PCT?
I think after doing Test E 250 for about 4 weeks, and all goes well, is there a problem with upping it to Test E 500? I know folks here say that roid rage is fake, ie if you're an aHole before, you'll still be an aHole. I'm a pretty calm guy, but i work with a lot of people all day, and sometimes they get on my nerves, so i have to play this one out to make sure it doesn't screw with my mentality too much and can be controlled.
Thanks!

you could probably get away with 10mg ED, but since you are already feeling the sensitiveness, use 20mg ED for week 1, then 10mg week 2.
it should clear it up, if not then look into anastrozole (Adex) or Letrozole (letro)

Also, thinking of running test E 500 a week etc as PG put it in the OP, but was wondering if putting in like 200 a week of deca would help out with my knees (I have mild arthritis...actually its chondro malatia if you know what that is) or would it make me blow up like a tick with water. BTW don't care about deca dick as I am in the desert and can't screw nuffin here anyways....LOL

200mg a week of Deca would help a lot with your joints, shouldn't bloat you to bad either.
Just combine it with your test injection.
250mg Test E + 100mg Deca on Sunday
250mg Test E + 100mg Deca on Wednesday
as far as the kick start its mainly for the added strength and size, before your long ester injectable fully reaches its peak in your blood plasma

It's been a real long time since I last used. I have fallen off of what I was at and really need to get back into my best shape. So a very reputable source gave me extreme tren 250 and cypiobol 250 for a 10 wk cycle. I very much have a lot of trust in source as he was the guy who helped before. He said one was "like or is" GH and the other is strong as deca....so what can you guys tell me as I am getting back into the swing of things.

well your source f-cked you over Extreme Tren 250 is actual prohormone, and a clone "knock off" of another prohormone.

Go with a simple Test cycle man. Apparently one is Trenbolone obviously Enanthate if it is truly dosed at 250 and the other is Test Cypionate<<<go with the Test only 500mg/wk 12 weeks followed by nolva/clomid PCT.

hmmm kinda agree. Adex lowers estrogen in the body and slightly upregulates testosterone. But that i know of it doesn't affect the collagen levels in your joints. But i could see it happening due to the lowering of estrogen, meaning less water "cushion" in your body.
On 200mg Deca you shouldn't need an AI if anything run 10mg Nolva ED to stop the chances of gyno.

Should i run nolvadex in the first week? What if i start with 20mg for 4wk and drop to 10mg for the rest of the cycle? I only have 90pills of Nolvadex-D which I think i can't run all through cycle and in the pct! Should i get more?
I also have given 100 of 50mg of proviron for free so should i use it 25mg ed through the cycle or just give it away?

So i got my HCG today-3x 2000iu powder plus 3x1ml solution...
So when i mix them together, i will have 1ml of hcg right(dosed at 2000iu)?
If im to shoot 250iu twice a week, this means i draw 1/8th of the ml out for one shot right?
Can i mix it with my test shot IM or must it be shot separately?
Just wanna make sure!

-yes 1ml will equal 2000IU. SO you need 1/8th of a ml for 250IU. Easy and most accurate way is to use a 1ML or 1/2ML slin pin.
-You can mix it with your test shot yea, but you have to be careful of how you inject.

water based substance inject alot faster then oil based. So be careful from when it goes from oil to water, you inject that water to quick and its going to burn like hell

Quick Question about "recovery"
So you jump off cycle and do the PCT....if you're not recovered by that point, what does it mean really in terms of training?
You aren't producing enough test to hold and make gains?

its not just natural test production that has to return to normal.

Right, I understand that....but, as far as training goes and seeing gains etc....can you make and keep gains if you don't recover because there is little test being produced? Or do you just turn into a little girl lol.

lets say it takes the average person 8 weeks to fully return to homeostasis. The first 4 weeks after your cycle (PCT) are when your levels are in the gutter, by using a PCT we steadily bring them up while lowering estrogen to prevent our estrogen levels from going through the roof. Most people will loose the gains they are going to loose within the first few weeks of PCT, after that assuming diet and training is fine, they do not loose anything more. This would lead me to believe that while test levels are low it is still possible to maintain and hold on to gains, now adding anything is another story. Once I am fully recovered (about 8 weeks for a 10 week cycle) I start making gains again. So i would say when your levels are at 0 or near, you can loose, once they are above zero but still in the low to moderate range its harder to gain but you can still maintain... Also a lot of what is lost is just water weight etc, so even though people have levels near 0 they still are able to maintain muscle until they reach their set point.

Tren.Ace and the endomorph...
I had read somewhere on a forum that the use of Tren.Ace by a person that is overall a endomorph body type generally results in the most dramatic of physique transformation.Not that others don't respond well to Tren,just that a endomorph seems to get the most fat loss,increase in vascularity and muscle hardening in comparison.
For those that have used Tren,what are your thoughts on this?
I'm mostly an endomorph with meso traits.Gaining muscle and strength isn't much of a problem for me,it is a bit difficult to do so without some fat gain also.I also respond very well to AAS...or did last time I cycled.

personally i just think thats, fat people getting a little leaner, and exaggerating the effects because they are excited they lost weight. Should be about the same for any bodytype. If any of them would get the vascularity the most it would be Ectomorph.

Just finished my first week on tren 250 and test 250 2x wk. I am now starting to see some strength increases. When I was struggling to get my max wt up before on my bi's/tri's/bench and shoulders, I am now able to do it without a struggle and can do more...So I can see strength increases....Only had one irritable outburst that I didn't see coming. I do have two partial herniated discs in L4 L5 while in the service, so alot of times I can't do the crunches like I used to. I was wondering I have a friend that has been in the business of Boxing for 25+ years.....I was wondering do you think that Boxing would really help replace the boring treadmill work. I was also wondering if I should do DNP or Clen at the end of this cycle to help with my diet and shredding down. I know that diet is 80% of leaning out....but looking for some feedback.
By the way, I really appreciate the help guys....Some of you like PG are extremely knowledgable...I have been away from this stuff since '98 when I went into the USMC. Thanks again...

Thanks again...i feel your pain i have a grade 1 slipped disc in my L3 or L4. But im here strong, hack squatted 6plates each side this week. Keep your mind on the goal and you can do it bro.
Do your PCT, then a few weeks after that is done, start DNP if you want too. I would say do a 5 week PCT, 2 weeks after thats done start DNP.
whats your PCT look like? YOu might of already told me but i get alot of this and forget sometimes. Also i hope you are using Tren Enanthate, i think you are.

I know this sounds shameful but I was going to get Novaldex but I am just getting back into and some stuff has changed in 10 years. What do you think.....

since you are on tren, and its one of the most suppressive substances, i would get an amp of HCG for the week before you start your PCT. Then use
HCG @ 250IU everyday (**all you need is one 1500IU amp)
then use:
Nolvdex @ 40/20/20/20/20/20
Clomid @ 100/50/50
and you'll be golden

is it a very likely possibility to have testicular reduction after 1 week of a stack? Or am I just being paranoid? can it be significant after 1 week? If so, is there something to turn this back early on and prevent the possibility of this? please let me know.
btw should i be taking any anti-e at this time? i can't remember back that far to remember what I was or if I was back in the day. just wondering Only if you can't take the bloat, or gyno issues arise. With Tren Enanthate i would get some Cabergoline just to have in case. Tren is known to elevate prolactin and/or progesterone levels which can cause gyno.

its called testicular atrophy. Its going to happen no matter what. Your testicles will go back to normal size once you come off and start your PCT. HCG is to get your boys back to normal size asap. the thing is you can't run it during your cycle because to much or running it to long will cause negative affects. Trust me they will shrink, but come back during PCT. no worries
