First cycle 500mgs Test E with Dbol (Before pics)

Oh dear, I really hope you appreciate what you have got yourself into.

My main piece of advice is making sure when you do post cycle therapy (pct) you do everything you can to get it right and get comprehensive blood work done once you complete your cycle.

Then don't do it again until your at least 25.

I wish I had waited longer to start and I'm sure many others do too.

That being said GL and stay safe.

What would your recommendation for post cycle therapy (pct) be? I am thinking of buying another vial of Nolvadex so that I can run the first two weeks of post cycle therapy (pct) at 50mgs ED then taper down to 25mgs for the last two weeks. Human chorionic gonadotropin is very hard to source here in NZ so that is not a possibility. It's a shame as I would really like to run Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) if possible. I know that some people will recommend Clomid as well but there are clearly differing opinions on this matter and from the literature I have read, tamoxifen seems to be the better choice for post cycle therapy (pct). I am aware recent research has shown Nolvadex lowers IGF-1 levels but I think that is better than risking permanent damage to my eyesight from Clomid. Any input I will certainly consider

either you have the fastest metabolism ive ever seen, or youre counting wrong. only 73kg while eating nearly 6k calories a day?

or youre very very active, that could explain it as well. you an athlete OP?

Not an athlete, but I do have a moderaely active job. Im pretty sure I just shit everything out cos i dump two huge loads a day. I think my basal metabolic rate is at least 3500-4000. And Im definitely counting right, I have a n electronic scale i measure my food on. I reckon once my cycle gets going, Ill need to.step up my intake to 7000 or 8000. And I dont even do any cardio

The leg press machine at the gym is built for tall people so unless you're 5"10 or over, you can't really use it. Me being 5"7, I had to calf raise the carriage to unlock it. It was possible with the lighter weights but I had to stop because once I reached a decent weight, I couldn't calf raise it off anymore. Sux

Doing squats I was nauseous and dizzy as hell for some reason. As a result, I wasn't able to go as hard as I should have. Legs got pumped by the end though.

73.60kgs bodyweight today.
 
i would really love to see what your diet looks like bro

Well, what do you think of my diet? I bet u said that thinking I didnt even know what a carbohydrate or protein was and that I was eating barely 2000 cals a day. Come at me bro
 
Pinned for second time today, left glute. It went pretty smoothly, just a little stinging when inserting the needle. Forehead is quite oily, Ive been washing my face as I dont want to get bad acne. I dont think the Dbol has quite kicked in yet, probably take a few more days
 
hey bro, i pinned my quad last friday and the pain has still not gone away completely. my second pin i used the glute which was not bad(considering i need my legs to walk lol),
for how long to you get pip??
 
Hey man, Im still a newb too, only did my second pin yesterday. Sunday I pinned my right glute and the injection site is still slightly sore, today is Thursday. It is going away though.

73.15kg bodyweight today. Didn't eat much yesterday and today due to busy work schedule. I don't really feel anything yet
 
Today I felt really tired all day at work and sleepy as hell even though I got nearly 8 hours sleep. I'm thinking it could be from low estrogen because I took 1mg of adex on Monday plus the test and dbol hasn't really kicked in yet so there's no test that has aromatised to estrogen yet. I think I might drop the dose to 0.3mg Mon Wed Fri from next week.
 
I just pinned the test e for the third time. It's Sunday morning and I decided to go for the right outer quad. When I aspirated, the syringe immediately filled with blood and so I withdrew straight away. I must've been right in a blood vessel. Lucky I aspirated, I squirted the blood out of the syringe and fitted a new 23 gauge needle. I went about an inch away from my first site and this time there was no blood when I aspirated so I injected. Hopefully I won't get pip in my quad.
 
Progress pics one week into my cycle. I don't think anything has kicked in yet, not even the Dbol. I haven't gained any weight yet nor have I seen any strength increases. Hopefully when I go to the gym tomorrow I will notice some changes.

Killer leg workout. Legs were so pumped. 8 reps with 160kgs is a PB for me, best before is 5 reps. I think I could've done two more reps if I really went to failure but didn't want to risk injuring my back again. The lunges had me crawling afterwards. Good stuff!
 
I took 0.3mg of Anastrozole on Monday and again today. I'm feeling alright this week, no lethargy or sleepiness so that's good. I don't feel like a god like some people say they do on Dbol though. I just pinned my left quad, all went smoothly. No fuss. Looking forward to stepping on the scale tomorrow.
