New member
First off, thanks to all for reading, reviewing, and/or responding to my first cycle log. My goal is to maximize lean muscle gaining potential(minimal fat) with the dedicated hard work and intensity on every lift, alongside a VERY STRICT diet, with AAS used for a little assistance. My first cycle info below is accumulative of 5 years of reading and studying across many boards and patience to make sure I could get my take off as smooth as I possibly could. OVERTHINKING has taken place for added security measures. Enjoy the ride with me!

Stats:

Age: 25
Height: 6ft. 6in.
Weight: 265 (120 kg)
BF %: 16%
Body Type: Mesomorph (w/ endomorph tendencies)
BLOOD WORK COMING SOON!!

My Weightlifting Experience:
I started league football, basketball, and wrestling at a very young age and was put under a lot of pressure from coaches/friends to kick start my weightlifting career at age 12. With all focus on football, at 15 I was a freshman All-American ranking #89 in the nation (#12 out of offensive lineman). My junior year, I committed to a D1 program in the Big East. I left for college in the middle of my HS senior year and started at Left Tackle in 11 of 14 games, as a freshman. At the time, I was blessed to thoroughly work with one of greatest weight training coach I’ve met, who currently works with the Chicago bears’ training staff. Overall, I have been weightlifting for 13 years, but legitimately for 8.

My Cycle Experience:
I have ran Epistane a couple years after I was done with football. Other “cycles” include. Ostarine, T3 (cytomel), Caradine (solo/stack) with PCT always being Nolvadex/Clomid. I know how each of these affect my body and how to properly dose and run them. NEVER HAVE RAN AN INJECTABLE.

My Cycle:

Supplements:
Before reading below, please note that 95% of the supplements listed that I will be taking will be of no cost (courtesy of my college friends and team fans). I am 100% aware that nutrition and macro nutrients should be derived from foods as much as possible. I am not promoting to follow this supplements regimen specifically. However, with studying and reveiwing mutiple lab test results of how each supplement solo and stacked, I feel this supplement stack will even aid me further in my goals. Moreso, I have used every supplement solo/stack listed below (except Nizoral & Metamucil) and have recorded reactions/dosages that works for my own body/bodytype. Extensive research has went into getting this part of my regimen right. I am willing to provide case studies/ scholastic test results to explain the reasons I am taking each, the dosages and timing of each. With access to nearly any supplement you can think of at no cost please feel free to provide add-ins. With all that said I am still a well researched novice, so would love input and feedback from the experienced. Thanks!

Again thanks for reviewing my cycle. I will be hopefully starting this in the next few weeks. As this is my first time with injectable test-e I am open to as many suggestions and corrective criticism (provided reason and facts) that is offered. Huge shoutout to my close friends and team fans for the support with giving me free access to the many supplements and items in my first cycle.

Do I have the GREEN LIGHT?
 
Wow very impressive, I'm sure the veterans will find some holes but from what little I know I didn't see any. Welcome!
 
Very detailed for sure. IMO you are almost over taking supplements. You are eating like 30 pills a day. Maybe take a multivitamin. I just don't see your body actually utilizing that much supplements. For example, you are taking 7 fish oil pills in 3 different times of your day. Overkill bro.
Also, I don't really think that you need to take all of that "Hairregenerate" protocol. You are only taking 500mg of test per week. Everyone is different but if you need that much protection from hair loss on something this simple, you are in for a rough time.

I feel like you might be reading some old school crap book about supplementation.

Just my .02
 
Why not get a full meal in at meal 2? I'd also drop the ostarine from pct or run it on cycle
 
Run hcg from beginning of cycle up to pct. Same with adex. I agree that your going way overkill with the supplements. I take some gear and eat real food. That's it. Simple works. Definitely overthinking. You would need a full time assistant to keep up with all that lol! Only thing for pct is nolva and clomid. Your clomid dose is a bit high. I would run 50mgs every day throughtout. You can get some bad sides running to much clomid. I didn't see bloodwork being done anywhere. Save your money on all those supps and get bloodwork done.

Read the beginner cycle stickys...
 
Sorry op, ive never read that much of anything in one sitting in my life. But from the comments, it sounds like you have done your homework....way to go!!
And, welcome to Ology;-)
