A little information on the compounds used in this section...
TESTOSTERONE ENANTHATE :-
Testosterone is the male sex hormone responsible for many of the physical and emotional traits of men. It creates the deeper voices, sex drive, aggression and, of coarse, larger muscles in men. Testosterone makes the muscles retain more nitrogen, which in turn makes the muscle synthesize proteins better, producing larger muscles.
The downside to testosterone steroids is that they aromatize, or turn into estrogen, in the body. When the body has too much estrogen it begins to take on female characteristics gynocomastia, water retention, fat gain, loss of sex drive and testicular shrinkage are all most certain side effects of taking testosterone and letting it aromatize in the body.
Testosterone enanthate is an oil based injectable steroid, designed to slowly release testosterone from the injection site (depot). Once administered, serum concentrations of this hormone will rise for several days, and remain markedly elevated for approximately two weeks. It may actually take three weeks for the action of this drug to fully diminish.
HCG :-
The main focus with HCG is to restore the normal ability of the testes to respond to endogenous luteinizing hormone. After a long period of inactivity, this ability may have been seriously reduced. In such a state testosterone levels may not reach a normal point, even though the release of endogenous LH has been resumed. Many who have suffered severe testicular shrinkage may be able to relate, as it is often some time before normal testicle size and feelings of virility are restored if ancillary drugs had not been used. The excessive stimulation brought forth by administration of HCG can likewise cause the testicles to rapidly return to their normal size and level of activity. We are not simply looking for it to fix the problem however, as the resulting high testosterone level can itself trigger negative feedback inhibition at the hypothalamus. Estrogen production is also heightened with the use of HCG, due to its ability to increase aromatase activity in the Leydig***8217;s cells. This is due to the main action of HCG, namely the increase of cycIicAMP (a secondary messenger that regulates cellular activity). When stimulated by HCG, the ability of the testes to aromatize androgens could potentially be heightened several times greater than normal. This also may inhibit testosterone production, so we therefore use HCG only as a quick shock to the testes.
CLOMAPHENE CITRATE :-
Clomid® is the commonly referenced brand name for the drug clomiphene citrate. It is not an anabolic steroid, but a prescription drug that blocks/minimises the effects of estrogen in the body. To be more specific Clomid is chemically a synthetic estrogen with both agonist/antagonist properties, and is very similar in structure and action to Nolvadex. In target tissues it can block the ability of estrogen to bind with its corresponding receptor. Its clinical use is therefore to oppose the negative feedback of estrogens on the hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian axis, which enhances the release of LH and FSH.
TAMOXIFEN CITRATE :-
tamoxifen citrate is a non-steroidal agent that demonstrates potent anti-estrogenic properties. The drug is technically an estrogen agonist/antagonist, which competitively binds to estrogen receptors in various target tissues. With the tamoxifen molecule bound to this receptor, estrogen is blocked from exerting any action, and an anti-estrogenic effect is achieved. Since many forms of breast cancer are responsive to estrogen, the ability of tamoxifen citrate to block its action in such cells has proven to be a very effective treatment. It is also utilized successfully as a preventative measure
EXEMESTANE :-
Belongs to a class of drugs called aromatase inhibitors
Developed to help fight breast cancer, Aromasin is one of the most powerful estrogen suppressing compounds available for body builders taking anabolic steroids. Additionally, it also raises testosterone in the body, which is a bonus for bodybuilders during post-cycle-therapy.It does this by premantly binding to the aromatase enzyme which causes the conversion of testosterone to estrogen. It's one the few aromatase inhibitors that can be used in conjunction with clomafene citrate and tamoxifen citrate without loss in effectiveness

This is for all you newbies out there.I see a lot of what should my first cycle be posts and this will help begin your quest for the best.Lets start with THE CHECKLIST
THE CHECKLIST:
WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW :
1.Decent knowledge on diet and training(without this you have no place here)
2.Basic knowledge on androgens and their side effects( A google search should be enough)
3.3-5 years of training experience
4.AGE 22 or above
5.Basic knowledge on intra muscular injections
WHAT YOU NEED :
NOTE:Calculate how much you will need based on the dosages posted later)
1.A SOLID DIET AND TRAINING PLAN(seriously this is the most important part)
2.Testosterone ethanate
3.exemestane
4.HCG(Human Choronic Gonadotropin )
5.Clomafene citrate
6.Tamoxifen citrate
7.Someone with experience in anabolics to monitor your progress(optional if not the members on steroidology are more than happy to help )
8.Finastreside(If you're prone to male pattern baldness)
9.Alcohol swabs
10.Sterile 25 gauge syringes
11.Sterile 23 gauge needles(to draw from vial)
Note:-best to start with under 15% bf
Note:you need EVERYTHING on the list to successfully run your cycle
Great now that's out of the way lets put together your first cycle..if you beat the checklist give your self a pat on the back. You're ready!!
Blood work:-
When:-
1.A week before starting your cycle
2.5 weeks into your cycle
3.1 week after your pct
Note:-
Get your blood work done before you start.This is to monitor the recovery of your natural testosterone levels
Blood work includes:-
Free testosterone
Overall testosterone
Estrogen
E2
LH
YOUR FIRST CYCLE:
NOTE:-The only androgen used will be testosterone.This is to see how your body reacts to exogenous androgens and how prone your body is to the various side effects.
Let's start
Testosterone ethanate 500mg per week(250mg on Monday and 250 mg on Thursday ) for 12 weeks
Exemestane 12.5mg everyday 15 weeks
Hcg 500iu per week(250iu along with testosterone injection) 12 weeks
Hcg 1000iu everyday for the last 10 days of your cycle leading up to your pct
Now after your last shot you need to wait for 2.5 weeks to let the testosterone clear out of your system before you start the most important part of your cycle THE POST CYCLE THERAPY or PCT for short .The quality of you pct is what determines how much of your new muscle will stay with you provided you eat rite and train hard
THE PCT
Clomafene Citrate 50mg everyday for 4 weeks
Tamoxifen citrate 40mg every day 2 weeks followed by 20mg everyday for 2 weeks
Now 3 weeks after your pct get your blood work done again to see how well your recovery is going by comparing you hormonal levels to the work you had done pre cycle
Good luck all you newbies.May this be the beginning of many successful cycles!-your friend nightmare
Now that you're don't with your first cycle you must be eager to get back on juice .I know you miss that feeling of invincibility but if you don't give your body enough time to recover you're risking permanent damage to your Htpa,also since you're "broken in" you can add more compounds into the mix
Time off = time on + pct
For this cycle that's 20 weeks
So now that you've waited and trained patiently to maintain the gains from your previous cycle and you want to do it again with a bit of an extra edge follow one of the protocols below for bulking or cutting
Some information on the new compounds in this section....
Nandrolone Phenylpropionate(Durobolin):-
Durabolin is very similar to the popular Deca-Durabolin. Durabolin must be injected frequently and in regular intervals, every 2-3 days. The substance nandrolone-phenylpropionate quickly gets into the blood, where it remains active for two to three days. The dosage is around 50-150 mg per injection, or a total of 150-600 mg/week. Durabolin has a distinct anabolic effect which assists the protein synthesis and allows the protein to be stored in the muscle cell in large amounts. This is combined with a moderate androgenic component which stimulates the athlete***8217;s regeneration and helps maintain the muscle mass during a diet. It shows that Durabolin stores much less water in the body than Deca-Durabolin. For this reason, Durabolin is more suitable for a preparation for a competition while Deca should be given preference for the buildup of strength and muscle mass. Durabolin, however, can be used for this purpose as well. The gains are fewer and slower than with Deca but of a higher quality and remain, for the most part, after discontinuing the compound. This is mostly due to the fact that lower dosages are used in most cases, resulting in less HPTA suppression.
The side effects of Durabolin are few. Water retention, high blood pressure, an elevated estrogen level, and virilization symptoms occur less often with Durabolin than with Deca-Durabolin. Female athletes therefore take Durabolin in weekly intervals since, due to its short duration of effect, no undesirable concentration of androgen takes place. Three to four day intervals between the relative injections are to be observed. Durabolin is one of the safest non-toxic steroids offering satisfactory results. Durabolin has no negative effect on the liver function so it can even be taken in cases of liver disease. Side effects occur only in rare cases and in persons who are extremely sensitive. Virilization symptoms in women such as huskiness, deep voice, hirsutism, acne, and increased libido are possible but occur only rarely if reasonable dosages are taken at reasonable intervals. Men usually experience no symptoms with Durabolin. Since the release of gonadotropins in the hypophysis is inhibited, a proper post cycle therapy of HCG and Nolvadex/Clomid is recommended.
ANAVAR(oxandrolone):-
Although Anavar doesn***8217;t give users tremendous gains in muscle mass, it is an ideal steroid for burning fat and giving the body a more cut look. Additionally, the muscle mass gained and fat burned tend to be more permanent than with the steroids associated with large muscle mass gains. Anavar also causes more mild side effects limited effect on the liver and comparatively limited effect on the bodys natural sex hormones. Anavar is readily available in foreign countries and on the black market, although it is fairly expensive.This steroid works well for the promotion of strength and duality muscle mass gains, although it***8217;s mild nature makes it less than ideal for bulking purposes. Among bodybuilders it is most commonly used during cutting phases of training when water retention is a concern. The standard dosage for men is in the range of 20-50mg per day, a level that should produce noticeable results. It can be further combined with anabolics like Primobolan and Winstrol to elicit a harder, more defined look without added water retention. Such combinations are very popular and can dramatically enhance the show physique. One can also add strong non-aromatizing androgens like Halotestin, Proviron or trenbolone. In this case the androgen really helps to harden up the muscles, while at the same time making conditions more favorable for fat reduction. Some athletes do choose to incorporate oxandrolone into bulking stacks, but usually with standard bulking drugs like testosterone or Dianabol. The usual goal in this instance is an additional gain of strength, as well as more quality look to the androgen bulk. Women who fear the masculinizing effects of many steroids would be quite comfortable using this drug, as this is very rarely seen with low doses. Here a daily dosage of 5mg should illicit considerable growth without the noticeable androgenic side effects of other drugs. Eager females may wish to addition mild anabolics like Winstrol, Primobolan or Durabolin. When combined with such anabolics, the user should notice faster, more pronounced muscle-building effects, but may also increase the likelihood of androgenic buildup.
Note :- you'll need to do an lft as part of your bloodwork
Note:-HCG ,exemestane and PCT protocols are the same as above
Bulking cycle:-
Testosterone enanthate 500mg/week 12 weeks
Nandrolone phenylpropionate 150mg eod 11 weeks
Wait for 21 days from last testosterone injection and then PCT as mentioned above
Cutting cycle:-
Testosterone propionate 150mg eod 8 weeks
Anavar 100mg ed 8 weeks
Wait 7 days after last testosterone injection and PCT as mentioned above
Now compare your pre-cycle bloodwork results to the ones you got post cycle to keep tabs on recovery
If the difference is not much then you're gonna be perfectly fine
