First Test E Cycle Review

Hey everyone. I'll be starting y very first cycle in a few weeks, and wanted to post it here just to make sure i'm doing everything right. Any and all help is greatly appreciated.

Stats:

5'11"
180lbs
11-12% BF

Cycle:

Test E 500mg weeks 1-10
Arimidex .25mg EOD weeks 1-10
PCT: nolva 40/40/20/20 weeks weeks 12-16

ps: do you guys recommend tapering my PCT off more? Say 40/40/20/20/10/5? Also, is it advisable to take my Aromatase inhibitor (AI) from the very beginning? I realize that it will hinder some of my gains but i'd rather be safe than sorry. Last thing i want is gyno or any other estrogen side.
 
I would run the test for longer - circa 12 to 14 weeks. Id also use Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) during both the cycle and post cycle therapy (pct), and finally would have an Aromatase inhibitor (AI) on hand in case gyno symptoms appear.

In terms of post cycle therapy (pct) your literally doing the bare minimum at the moment. I personally would look at a Nolva / Clomid / Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) combo

I would do more research before you start. If you have to ask simple questions like this then you are not ready. It will not hurt you to wait. Be patient and your cycle will go much better.

Gotcha. What kinds of dosages would i be looking at for Clomid and Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) respectively? In your opinion of course .Thanks Again.

I appreciate the concern but simple questions need to be asked as well. I've done ample research and am ready, just getting alternate opinions. At the end of the day, i'll do whatever i want in terms of my cycle ;)

You still haven't stated your age...?

Is your diet clean?

On the plus side - good to see you are easing yourself in with a Test only cycle...

The jury is out for me - until you inform us of diet, age etc
 
Whenever someone doesn't post their age, usually means they know they r too young n don't wanna get the advice that they don't want to hear. Especially since it was the 1st thing he was asked n still declines to state it.

Just be honest n we will try our best to give u the best advice possible. It might not be what u want to hear but its for your benefit.

And you have room to still grow naturally depending on your age and current T levels.
How old are you?

Yea you're all right I am on the younger side, which is why i haven't posted my age. I'm not interested in hearing concerns over that. I'm going to do what i'm going to do, regardless of what anyone warns me. I'm well informed, educated, and have accepted the risks associated with what i'm doing. I'm a very cautious person, and would never endanger myself without taking the proper precautions.

With that being said, my diet is clean, my macros are on point, and my meals are all documented and weighed out. My training is also on point. This is why this post is directed towards details of my cycle rather than basic BB tips and tricks.

So keeping all the above in mind, if anyone would be kind enough to give me the advice i need, I would greatly appreciate it, and it would benefit me greatly. If you cannot help me based on not knowing my age or anything else, then thanks for reading, but please refrain from commenting. Thanks everyone.
 
Your asking ppl to give you advice about steroids on a forum that "DOES NOT ADVOCATE THE USE OF STEROIDS BY ANYONE UNDER THE AGE IF 23"

Do not ask people not to comment about that...
If you do not like this then try a different forum...
And if you are going to be stubborn then good luck...
 
Also you are not educated enough which is made obvious by your cycle duration and shitty pct.
There is an entire sticky about first cycles...READ IT

For anyone else looking to help, these are the types of comments that are deconstructive and waste everyones time. When i said im educated, i meant as a person. Clearly i wouldnt be asking for advice if i knew everything. Again, thanks for your time and concern but please don't waste your breath anymore.
 
Then find a different forum...
I told you everything you need to know is in the sticky for first cycle users...
All your questions are answered in all of the stickys if you read them...
What is a waste of everyones time is this thread made by someone too young who we do not approve of using AAS therefore will not answer your questions until you are ready...
You have lots more research to do before you cycle...that much is obvious by your first post.
And you have too much room to grow naturally before you cycle.
Regardless of how old you are I would have told you to wait.
 
...........................................

OP, how are we supposed to know that we're not giving AAS advice to a 16yr. old kid? Go to another site if you want to hide your age!

He's hiding his age guys. Absolutely do not give him a green light. This is how these kids wind up on 60 minutes and it gives a black eye to the sport of bodybuilding.
His parents could get involved after they bust him. This is how laws are passed on this stuff!
The cops will search the kids Internet browsing....anyone who gave him a green light will be centered out.
I'm not touching this!!
