Hello, I have just started my first cycle of Testaplex E250. I will be pinning on Tuesday and Friday mornings two times a week, 250mg a time. I have Nolvadex, Clomid, and Lextroplex on hand to use just if needed. I will mostly like be using just Clomid at 50mg for my PCT but may change that.
My cycle will go as follows
Wk 1-10 Test E 500mg each week
Wk 12-15 Clomid 50mg ed (2 weeks after Test E cycle is finished)
Weight: 215
Height: 5'11
Body fat: 15-17%
Here are some of my pre-cycle measurements:
biceps: 17"
quads: 25"
calf: 17"
waist: 38"
chest: 45.5"

Overall, I'm a pretty thick guy.. I know my body fats a little high but I plan on cutting it a month or so after the cycle... until then I will keep eating like a horse (healthy) to maximize gains.
here is my rough workout plan
Mondays: Chest/biceps/ triceps
current max bench is 270
Tuesday: doing cardio at fat burning zone for 30 mins
wednesday: Squats/cleans/pullups
current max squat is 450
Thurs:fat burning cardio half hour
Friday: Deadlifts /barbell rows

I left out the other lifts I do for now, just wanted to lay out the core lifts to let you know what my strength are. I will be updating the full list at how many reps later. I will be posting up pics as soon as I figure out how to.
 
first and second pin

My first official pin was on tuesday in the right Glute. I just followed the steps from spotinjections.com and it went perfect. The pins I am using are Exel 3cc Syringe with Needle 3cc, 22g x 1" and seemed to work very well. It was only slightly sore for the next couple days but did not effect my workout routine. My second pin was on Friday morning in the left Glute. I thought it was going to be more difficult this time being that I am right handed but it wasnt. throughout the weekend, it wasnt as sore as my first injection was. So for the first week, it went really well, I hope stays smoothly sailing for the rest of the cycle. Also I forgot to add that I am 25 years old. I just took the pictures above cold, not after work out. As you can see, I already have some Backne precycle so I'm not too worry about getting more during the cycle, maybe the extra test will cure it haha... The lines you see in the first pic are stretch marks from working out in highschool, I also have some near my biceps/shoulder, I guess the skin just couldnt keep up.
 
Did my third pin this morning into the right quad. Stung I little more then the glutes, but nothing that wasn't manageable. Currently, no side effects.... Weight 215 at the gym yesterday. 8 days into cycle.
 
Mondays workout I did Chest/triceps/Biceps....
Bench press
135x10 warm-up
185x12 warm-up
225x6
225x5
225x4
Decline bench
185x 7 3 sets

The soreness in the quad the following day was a worse feeling then taking the pins into the Glutes. But I still went through with my squats and cleans for my workout on wednesday... weight was at 217.
squats
225 warm up
275x10
315x8
315x6
hip sled for superset....

Will be doing my 4th pin tomorrow morning into the left quad.....
 
I did my fourth pin this morning into the left quad. Went to the gym and weighed in at 222..... which is quite a bit above my normal weight range (normally between 213-218) is this normal to be making this amount of weight gain going into my third week?? I also kinda felt that I was recovering quicker in betweens my sets... just curious if the water weight comes on in the beginning of the third week for anyone else??
 
well my weight went back down to 218 so I guess it was just the extra water I have been jamming down my throat. Did my first injection into the delt on tues (2/23/2010). went well, only thing different that happened was that the muscle twitched for about 5 seconds then stopped. I will be pinning my right delt tomorrow morning. I'm excited for next week because it will be week 4, hope to experience the gains!! Typically when do your balls start shrinking when doing Test E only???anybody??

It is common to gain weight that quickly w/ Test E. Are you running an AI?

Some guys have their boys start shrinking by week 2. I'm in weeks 3, haven't noticed any yet.
 
No I have Letroplex and Arimiplex on hand though. I wanted to see how my body reacts to Test first so I didn't run it at all unless I have symptoms
 
well tomorrow will be my 4th week on Test E and I'm pretty excited to start feeling the difference.... Hopefully I will feel it when I work out tomorrow morning. I did my 6th pin Friday morning (the 26th) into the right Glute and it went well just like the rest of them. I skipped the right delt because I just got a tetanus shot in it on wendnesday, and didn't want to pin into again. I weighed in at 224 Friday night so I am up on weight from 4 weeks ago where I hovered around 215....

Update on side effects.... Have not had any major side effects. I've been noticing I have been waking up with more boners lately which never used to happen (unless I was sleeping next to a pretty woman haha) although my sex drive has not gone up. I'm still tuggin' on it the same amount but I am not feeling any different or increase desire to empty the pipes.
Slight acne on the face but nothing too horrid that I don't want to go out in public, but it looks like it is clearing up.
No gyno related symptoms as of yet which is great. I'm glad I didn't run an Aromatase inhibitor (AI) during the cycle so at least I know how well/bad my body reacts.
My Balls are still the size of coconuts which i'm happy with. I will keep checking on the twins down under daily.

I've been getting alot of compliments around my buddies and people about my size, saying im looking big. Most noticeable difference that I can see is my traps, bulging pretty good. I will be doing my 7th pin on tuesday morning into the right quad. I would go into my left glute but the 1.5" i ordered off of amazon came shipped wrong, they sent the 1" pins. I don't want to do anymore glute injections with 1 inch pins so i will wait for them to correct my order. I will probably post again on thursday
 
I had my first issue with pinning in four weeks. I went to inject in my right quad and while aspirating a good amount of blood pooled in the syringe.... withdrew the needle, changed needles and stabbed again, and was successful. I am glad that it happened because I was always worried about hitting a vein. But now that I did, I know what its like and its really not that bad. for people that are following this and are newbs like me, its pretty obvious when you do it.. I have had tiny drops of blood that are in the syringe after I inject and was worried, but now I realize that it was nothing to worry about. Hope this brings comfort to the new pinners...

Weighed in at 224 yesterday morning. Nothing new with strength gains that couldn't be natural and I am not "feeling the test". The things that are different with being 4 weeks into test e is the weight gain, looking more bulky, slightly more acne, and the morning boners.
 
Just finished up week 4 on the Juice. Weighed in at 222 on friday morning. It seems like I gained the most weight on the first week on the cycle and now it has been hovering right around 221-225. this weeks bench was
135 warm-up
185 warm-up
225x7
225x6
225x5
decline bench
205x8 three sets
Squats
225 warm-up
275 warm-up

225x10
225x8

Looking back at my previous posts it looks as though my reps have gone up a bit. Not exactly the results as I thought I would be having, but I hope the test kicks into high gear here in the next couple weeks. still having a good amount of boners, ance is slowing subsiding. I feel like I have been a little more agitated at work with people, i dont know if its because of the test or just a little more stressful at work. Nuts are still fully loaded and emptying them nightly. All measurement are still the same as when i started but i do look bigger being that i am 10 pounds heavier. on wednesday and friday i did feel better/recover quicker in the gym, but still dont think the test has fully kicked in... from what i've read from novice users say that it feels awesome and you WILL absolutely feel a big difference when its in full effect. Can anyone comment on this?? I know 10 pounds is pretty good for 4 weeks just want someone to back me up that I will feel a huge difference while working out.
 
Well i'm starting my 6th week being on Test E. I just did these measurements today
Weight: 226
Height: 5'11
biceps: 17"
quads: 26"
calf: 17.5"
waist: 39.5"
chest: 46"

From my pre-cycle measurements on feb 14th just over a month ago posted on the top of this thread, I have gained
weight: gain of 11 pounds
biceps: same measurement
quads: gained 1"
calf: gained .5"
waist: gained 1.5"
chest: gained .5"

My strength continues to go up each week, I look bigger, and workouts have been getting more intense with quicker recovery. Before the cycle, I thought right around week 4 you would notice a "HUGE" difference in the gym... but in my experience, there is a slight difference with intensity, but not the feeling I thought i was going to get. But I am very happy that the weight I am pushing keeps increasing, and my body weight has steadily risen. I still have no testicular atrophy...

noticeable changes for me are the following:
Acne, rapid boners.

Any people have a Test E only cycle under their belt that didn't have your balls shrink??
 
Weighed in at 230 last night... all my workout weights are going up. Had a slight mishap with my right shoulder, just kills after i do bench so I will move to using dumbbells instead of barbells which do not hurt as much for the next two weeks. Acne is still staying around, and it appears that my balls have shrunk a little bit, but nothing noticeable. 7 weeks in.
