First cycle log - testosterone only

keep in mind 80% of that 20lbs is coming from your diet... make sure your diet is top notch.. come to the diet forum and post if your not sure.. im lurking in there daily
 
So your guesstimation is that aas gives you about 20% boost? That sounds encouraging, infact if you do the math its outstanding when comparing a years training without steroids, to a year with.
 
Thanks man! Diet is on par. I may be eating a little over 500+ maintenance some days, but that's okay by me. It's almost all clean so it's not a big deal.
 
I do push, pull, legs, rest and repeat right now. I train for about 80 minutes on average, sometimes an hour. I have a compound lift at the beginning of every workout where I will work on strength, and then the rest is hypertrophy.

No cardio as of yet, but I may include HIIT after lifting if I am gaining too much fat.
 
My ass hurts pretty bad this morning from my last pin. I don't know if I'll be able to do legs today because I can barely walk up the stairs. The injection site looks fine. There's no rash or swelling. It just feels like I'm internally bruised or something.

I ended up emailing my source about the PIP, because as a HRT patient, I am not accustomed to this from my pharma grade stuff. I also thought that Test E generally didn't result in much PIP regardless of where it comes from? I know injection protocol very well, and I'm very sanitary and always switch up my injection site. Should I be concerned or just get used to it?
 
Don't forget that cardio and weight lifting play into your daily caloric expenditure. Calories are what matters the most. It doesn't matter if it's "clean" or "dirty" but dirty foods either have really bad macro nutrient profiles, or are extremely dense, calorically.
 
Awesome,, that sounds very similar to my style.. I just switched to a 5 day split though.. I hate cardio but I do it 5 days a week usually
 
Bro I wish I could tell you from experience, but I can say from others experiences or reports, that although its not fun it isnt uncommon for that experience, some say quality of product, some say method of introduction.. I highly doubt in your case its method of introduction.. But point is common sense says if it gets crippling obviously worry
 
Hmmm, yeah. The thing is, it goes away, but after 3 days. By the time the pain is gone I have to pin again... I would be very concerned if there was swelling or a rash or something, but nothing.

Something else I wanted to bring up but it may not be the best place to ask. I got a new Test script from my doctor recently and I still have 5 reps left at my pharmacy under the old script. If I went to another pharmacy with the new script he gave me and got Test from both pharmas would they be aware I am doing that? I do have a drug plan but I obviously wouldn't be using it for both. I would love to switch and use pharma grade instead even though I would have to lower the dose to 300mg per week, because I know I won't get any pain from it.

Thoughts?

Lol.. its illegal, but I have a hunch it would work.. I honestly think youd still get some pip though because you introducing what like 4 to 5 times the prescribed amount.. It would be interesting to see if you got no pip even at the higher dosage from the pharm stuff.. Just dont get in trouble man. Be safe.
 
So I have a fairly good idea about where the PIP is coming from. Ii went to do my 4th pin today and noticed a tiny little crystal on the tip of the needle before I injected it.

I inspected the bottle before and noticed nothing. Inspected it again after seeing the crystal, and nothing. It just looks like oil. Very weird. I'm going to post another thread about this subject.
 
Hmmm, I figured that much. I live in Canada so maybe they won't care so much after I have it in my possession haha. I want to take advantage of the situation so bad, but I also don't want to piss off my doctor. Then again, he's been going on about lowering my dose because my total T levels (756 or somewhere around there last time I got BW) are "too high" and he thinks the 500 range would be better...
 
Aaah,,, bad doctor:fawk2: Brother I cant t tell you what to do I can only say that unless your really unhappy with the gear your running its not really worth it. Whats the brand, it sounds like you wouldnt reccomend.
 
Granted it is too rarly for a review obviously, im just wondering based on the pip.. Is it that bad? Scale 1-10?
 
My 4th shot doesn't hurt so far after warming it up so I'm assuming the gear had crashed. Clearly not enough to visibly tell, but enough for the goddam crystals to fuck shit up. I'm gonna warm the vial every time before an injection now so hopefully that gets rid of the problem altogether. My source was AML. They have so many good reviews that I thought I'd try them, and they also guarantee as little PIP as possible. Might not be their fault though. Maybe during shipping it got a little fucked up. They just emailed me back saying it's rarely a problem to get PIP with their test, and that he'd send me bac oil to dilute it if I'd like. So that was really nice.

So far here is what I have noticed: No extra energy so far. Some strength gains, and more morning wood. My sex drive isn't crazy though. I know I'll have to wait for the 6-7th week for shit to really kick in. In the mean time, no bloating as far as I can tell. Weight is sitting around 178. I would love to break 180 by the 4th week.
