first cycle- tell me how it look

[chadder]

hey guys. Starting my first cycle in about two weeks and want to make sure i have a solid plan before I start. I will be running test e only. The main thing i am concerned about is running the Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) correctly because there seem to be a miillion ways to do it.

Week 1-10: test e 500mg (pin 250 mg on mon and thurs)
week 3-11.5 Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) 1000 iu (500 on mon and thurs)
week 1-10 arimidex EOD at .25mg (will increase dose if needed)
week 12-16 PCT of nolva and clomid

I want to run the Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) through cycle. The question is, should i start it at week 1 or the beginning of week 3 and should i run it up to 4 days before PCT or stop it with my last test injection? I am also not sure about the arimidex. I have it on hand and am leaning towards taking a very light dose EOD. Is this ok or would it be better to break it out if i start gettin gyno

thanks alot! Let me know your thoughts

This actually looks like a very good first cycle and pretty well researched. I would possibly extend the test to a minimum 12wks since your good gains won't start till wks 4-6. The Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) on cycle you can do 250iu 2x/wk a d you can start it around wk 2. Stop it when you discontinue test since youre running it during cycle and not blasting pre-PCT. I'm not an Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) expert so maybe someone else can chime in. Start your adex day 1 but at a very light dosage since you don't know your pre-disposition towards aromatization, maybe .25mg/EOD or E3D. Adjust as needed for sides and with bloodwork. Don't wait till gyno shows since by then it will be harder to control. An Aromatase inhibitor (AI) like adex on cycle has other benefits besides just keeping E2 down.

id take the Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) and the Aromatase inhibitor (AI) from day 1 all the way until the start of pct (2 weeks after the last test inject)

Most of what I'm about to write will fall under personal opinion which is where most of everyone's corrections will fall, as you wrote out a decent cycle.

You can do the Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) from jump and up to 4 days is fine. The 1000 iu for that cycle is over kill, you can easily knock that down to 500 iu a week.

The adex is fine at the .25 EOD. Increase as needed as you said. Some don't run it from the word go, so do. By running it from the start you help lower your BP while on cycle, reduce water weight gains, etc etc, all of which are related to keeping your E under control. Run the Adex though (if you choose to run it as you have it set up) up to two days prior to starting your Serms.

The test e can and should be increased to 12 weeks. Nothing is really wrong with the 10, as we even have a sticky here that suggest starting with a 10 week cycle. It's widely rec that you do a 12 do to the length of time it takes to start feeling / seeing the test e kick in.

I'm assuming your dose on PCT is correct *are you're sure on them* as you didn't list them.

I would have beat your response time, if you took the time to break out each of your points as I did damnit. Not to mention my hands are killing me over here from HGH.

I'm sorry, the iPad doesn't have PowerPoint otherwise I could've made an entire presentation out of it lmfao!!! I feel the tide shifting in my favor lord Kaname! It is I who will take over middle earth hahaha. Your advice is sound as always but now its me who's not taking the time to write as eloquent.

Edit* you're still the man in my book buddy! Look I even managed to beat out Joe D and he wrote a sentence. your boys on fire this morning!

 

[riprockwell]

Looks like you got great advice already. I will add that I would run it 12 weeks instead of 10. Trust me on that.

 

[chadder]

thanks for the responses guys. i think i will extend it to twelve weeks dependinng on how i feel around week ten. also want to mention that i will be taking finasteride on cycle as i dont want to accelerate my balding.

 

[Nero_666]

You've got some very good advice. Yes I'd myself do 12 weeks. Good luck!
