First cycle Test-E @ 300

[wrx554]

Hi Guys

Just a quick question on running test-e @ 300mg per week for a firt cycle. Is it best to do this is 1 shot @300 or 2 shots @150? I know everyone says that fequent doses are better but I thought I would check that for low doses? Any suggestions appreciated!

good question. I read pahntom1s post about his reccomendation of 300 vs 500 but dont recall him saying to split it or not. as soon as I find a good source, I'll be starting 300 mg of test E as well. hope to hear some answers.

they say split it to keep your blood levels more stable. like 150mg on Mon, then 150mg on Thurs. but it is ok to do it in 1 shot a week for the needle shy.

I'd suggest splitting the dose into twice a week injects, not only will you acheive more stable blood hormone levels, but you'll get more practise at injecting. It actually becomes fun and you'll look forward to them.

My thought on this is split.. for normal HRT.. the shot is usually once a week at 100mg.....now the cycle is 300mg a week.. IMO... it depends on how many shots you want to take.. if you are needle phobic then just do once a week.... if not..then twice...we are not dealing with an exact science.. the bottom line is your body is gettiing approx. 3 times the amount of test as normal.... let us know what you decide and let us know the results...

just out of curiosity if you were to take a shot on Monday's & Thursday's you have a gap of 2 and then 3 days in between shots, would this not make your levels less stable than taking timed shots for example every 2 days or every 3??

Like thefantom said, it's not an exact science and sometimes you have to expiriment with the small details and see what feels best for YOUR BODY and results disired.
Personally IMO, if using Test E or Cyp, its specifically designed and engineered to last longer/sustain release so you don't have to inject so often. Once weekly should be perfect. However I also see the possible benefits of injecting smaller amounts more often to even levels and relief sides. I recommend to try both and see which you like.
Regarding your question above, most do recommend the Thurs and Mon routine but since there is a larger gap after the Thurs shot, they say inject very early Mon morning and then very late on Thursday. If you count the hours, they should be about even (3 days and 12 hours between shots). ...if you care to be that exact.

Thanks to everyone for the responses! I think that I will go with 2 X per week and see how I respond to that. Its a little difficult when it is your first cycle as you have nothing to compare it against as far as what works best for you... JayC I like to the Idea of splitting the shots down to the hour!!! I will post some more info and stats once I start for the sake of future newbies!

Thanks again

No problem, anytime. Yes, definetly create some type of journal and report back with anything and everything. It helps everyone. Also make sure you've got the right injection supplies (i.e. syr, pins, alc pad, etc.) and know the proper technique (for pulling from vial and pushing IM).
With Test E, somtimes your sore and other you don't feel a damn thing or any changes..... Your also using a long ester so it officially take 2-3 weeks before you feel the test sides.
