Hi Everyone,
I hope your 2017 is off to a great start! I'm hoping to get some ideas/feedback and any info is greatly appreciated.
Me: I'm 34 years old, been in the gym 5-6 days a week training hard since I was 17. I ran a couple successful 300mg test + equipoise and similar low dose cycles in my late 20s. I ran a higher dose cycle, panicked when I started to get gyno symptoms, and used letrozole as my AI on my last cycle 7 years ago... nuked my estrogen so badly that I turned into a mess/nervous wreck and later decided I didn't have enough knowledge to continue with AAS despite reading and researching for years.
After a couple years in Afghanistan, I got sick and lost a ton of weight. I have been trying for a year to put it back on, but now that I'm turning 35 soon, I just don't have the same recovery I once did. I decided to go with a bread and butter testosterone cycle to feel better, look better, recover better, etc.
Pre cycle bloods: Testosterone serum 644, Estradiol 16.3.
6'1", 190lbs. Abs visible.
I live in South America and everything is legal and over the counter. I decided on a 12 week cycle of Sustanon 250mg E3D with Test Prop for weeks 13-14 @ 50mg/day to keep the blood levels steady and be able to start PCT with less lag time. I will use hCG weeks 8-11. I used roidcalc and have studied everything again and again.
This is my first time using Sustanon and I followed Bill Roberts' advice and frontloaded 2.5ml on day 1. With my estradiol precycle already at 16.3, I was afraid if I began adex right away, I would crash my estrogen and so after reading many articles, I decided to wait to implement the AI.
I felt the Sustanon kick within 2 days. Besides the constant erections, I felt the pain I normally feel under the weights turn into a burn I want more of. I was able to do 6 or 7 exercises instead of 3 or 4. My diet is dialed in perfectly and I'm not eating for pleasure.
On day 3, my nipples were getting super sensitive, I woke up feeling super moody, my ankles were swollen, was losing erections, and my thinking was very cloudy. I took .25mg of adex in the morning and felt a lot better within a few hours.
On day 4 I felt great, but then by the evening again the symptoms returned so I took another .25mg of adex. I was originally of the understanding that for my particular dose of Sustanon, the necessary adex dosage would be somewhere around .5mg EOD, so I essentially spaced this accordingly.
On day 5 I moved to .5mg. I felt good all day. Clarity returned, felt very happy and upbeat. My morning wood was great.
Day 6 I did my regular 250mg injection.
Today is day 7. I woke up feeling off with anxiety. Took my .5mg of adex and after a couple hours started feeling better, but still not perfect.
I know that without bloods this like throwing darts blindfolded, but have you had any similar experiences with adex and sustanon? From what I've read, the half-life is approximately 50 hours for adex, but it can take 7-10 days for the liver to eliminate the excess e2.
Do you see any serious flaws with what I'm doing?
Thanks!
