Best cycle for an athlete concerned about cardio and weight gain?

Stats:
5'7" 180lbs ~14%bf 33 yrs old - I've been lifting hard for 15 years - currently only taking 15iu GH/wk (Somatropin)

I play competitive soccer and race motorcycles so weight is a huge issue for me, but I'm recovering from an injury that's kept me out of the gym and ended my last cycle early after 8 wks (test/mast/ Anavar (var) ). My stats at the end of the last cycle were 187 lbs @8-9%bf. I was strong as an ox and in great shape, but I was having a lot of problems with cardio and I was gaining a ton of weight which is particularly bad in racing. I am extremely sensitive to test and was running it at 200mg/wk because anything higher seemed me make me cramp up pretty bad to the point where I couldn't run and give me insane arm pump on the motorcycle (I dont know why, but it may have had something to do with dehydration). I didnt run any Aromatase inhibitor (AI) with the last cycle because of the low dose of test and b/c I was using mast. I've been through multiple cycles, but never more than 250mgs of test/wk due to concerns about the weight gain and huge pump that I get when running and riding...I've still had great results from a low-dose (gains of 17lbs and dropped 7%bf in 8 wks).

I'd like to run a new cycle in about 2 wks, but want to change things around a bit so that my cardio doesnt suffer so much and so I can keep my weight gain down. I was thinking of running a higher dose of Eq to make up for the low dose of test and help with the cardio, but a lot of people seem to dislike it. I really need to keep the water retention down and minimize sides.

I thought I'd run:
Weeks 1-16: Test @ 200mg/wk (Prop weeks 1-2 and 14-16; Cyp weeks 1-14)
Weeks 1-16: Eq @ 600mg/wk
Weeks 1-4 and 12-16: Anavar (var) @ 50mg/day
Weeks 8-16: Mast @ 200mg/wk (after I drop some of this excess bf)

I have the following on hand:
Test (cyp and prop)
Eq
Mast
Anavar (var)
Winnie
Tren Ace (I'll prob need more if I incorporate it for longer than 4 weeks)
A-dex
Clom
Nolv
HCG
Letro

I can get:
NPP (I'm having trouble finding caber)
Proviron

Should I be doing something different? Any help is appreciated...
 
first one you have is fine.

wk1-16/EQ/600mgs/wk
wk1-18/test/500mgs/wk
maybe..
wk1-8/winstrol/50mgs/ED

winstrol is amazing for cardio.
 
dont do tren if you are worried about cardio, not sure why you would even mention it, you need to understand each compound to use them safely.

I rec test/mast I like that combo

I find Winstrol (winny) one of the most usless yet harsh of most aas. pre-stage is the only use i see for it worth its use. (just my op)
it will weaken tendons and joints also hard on blood.
guy just said he is recovering AND is an athlete , why would you tell him to use winny?
 
winstrol for 8 weeks?? welcome to the house of pain... joint pain that is. Split that 4 weeks load then 4 weeks to end the cycle. my .02.
