Future Test/Tren/Halo Cycle (Should I add Mast?)

Below is my projected cycle. My main goals are to add strength but little to no weight gain before my Feb 9th tournament. With that being said, one question I have is if anyone would recommend adding Masteron to this cycle? I've never used Masteron...just did alot of reading on it. I'm not sure if it would be worth adding to obtain my goals.
Please critique my cycle as well, I'm all ears!

I really like this cycle. You're a powerlifter, right? Masteron is highly androgenic so it kind of makes sense (you'll see a lot of test p/tren a/mast p blends, for example), but usually mast is used to dry up the body prior to a figure meet. I find that combining mast and tren makes me feel a little too achy, even when I've got a lot of test on cycle. Personally, I wouldn't run it, but for what you're doing androgens are generally what you want, and you've set that up nicely with the halo at the end. I don't think there's any need to taper up the halotestin.

So the thing that stands out to me is your test on cycle is a little low. I think this is a matter of preference -- I've seen people that say high test leads to sides when on a tren cycle, and I've seen people say the exact opposite. I'm not sure there's a definitive answer.

You might consider only using aromasin if you need it, rather than just in case, but that's also a personal choice. This is a great, well-thought-out cycle and I think you're probably going to kick ass.

How is it you're only 180lbs if you've been training twelve years and have experience running tren?

Not a powerlifter (I'm a pro armwrestler), but I actually try to base my training like a powerlifter...High weight, low reps.
I threw in the halo at the end, because I love the boost and aggression It gives me for my matches! Plus it helps me keep my strength when I'm cutting a little weight in that final week.
I basically ran the test low to keep my sides down. Yet I still wanted to run enough to keep my levels good. I know most of my strength will probably come from the tren.
I'll definitely run aroma! I'm a little gyno-prone, so an Aromatase inhibitor (AI) is a huge must for me!

I've fluctuated weight from 160 - 200lbs.....I just try to stick around 185 range because I compete at 176lbs.

Any recommendation on the Mast dosage?

This is me currently (about 183lbs) - Sorry for the color....it's some APP that I have to use to take pictures (because my phone is broken)

I have a Tournament on Nov 10, so I'm 2 wks into a small dose of test prop. Other than that, I haven't ran anything in close to 2 yrs.

I met Travis Bagent a couple times... seemed like a nice enough guy. I read he runs a Crossfit affiliate these days! Anyways, I like anything that's high weight and low reps.

Yeah, people kind of disagree on this point. A lot of folks I know say to run test higher than tren, others say to run tren higher than test (like 200 test 600 tren even). If it works for you, stick with it. Sides on a tren cycle suck.

Any recommendation on the Mast dosage?

You know, like I said, I'm not a big fan. But you're pretty low bf%, and if you want to cut, test/tren/mast is the classic cycle for that. Usually something between 350-600/wk is on the radar for masteron. Higher than 600 and it's no more effective, and you really need to be running 400-ish to get effects. When I last ran it, it was test/tren/mast at 1300/525/525. Absolutely beastly cycle, but that's a shit ton of gear. If you've been off a couple years you may not want to go that high on the tren or the mast (I think your 400 number for tren is right on the money). Maybe if you added the mast in the last 6 weeks-ish? It's great for that cutting bit and you're going to be cutting some lbs that last 4-6 weeks, right?

Yea, Bagent is the man! But he's out the game lately (mostly due to his pursue with crossfit)

I was thinking somewhere around the 400mg range!
So If I did Mast for the last 6wks, I'm guessing I'd have to run the shorter ester? (not enanthate?)

My cutting weight usually comes in the last 2-3 days (kinda like a boxer or wrestler)

Sorry I missed this reply. Yeah, 400 is about right for mast. I didn't like it at 525, maybe I'd have been happier at 400, but I'm just never going to use that shit again. I was using the prop ester. The enanthate ester is great in that it saves you trouble pinning and gives you more stable levels, but if you want to quit the cycle, you're mostly fucked. If say if you wanted to run test/tren/mast at the levels you're talking something like this would work well:

1-12 test e 200, (=100 2x/wk)
1-10 tren e 400, (=200 2x/wk)
4-10 mast p 400, (=100 eod)
6-10 halo 40 ed (or ramp up if you like)

Your PCT looks okay. I'd run 100/100/50/50 on the clomid though. How do you feel about HCG?

The cool thing about halotestin is it's an anti-prolactin (and an anti-estrogen!), so should help with the possible sides from the tren. I guess prami is an anti-prolactin (I use caber, but whatever), but I would use it only if you needed it.

I'm real curious how you do on this cycle. I sometimes wonder how the mast would have worked if I'd stayed at a lower dosage, but in the end I Just like test/tren more.

Weird about Bagent leaving for Crossfit. He doesn't seem like the type, you know?
