Question pertaining to my planned Test E cycle

Quick background: I'm 25 years old and have been lifting for 8 years now. I am 6'4 and weigh 210lbs at 11% bf. I have ran 2 h-drol cycles in the past, and loved them.

I plan on running a Test only cycle for my first run. The goal is to add some size and bulk on this cycle. I have worked with 3J in the past so I plan on continuing to use the diet he made for me.

Weeks 1-12 500mg Test E
Weeks 1-12 .5mg EoD (research chem from sponsor)


PCT will be Clomid 100/50/50/50 and Nolva 40/40/20/2

Questions:

1) From my reading HCG is recommended for the first cycle. Do you guys think I could run HcGenerate or should I find the real stuff? Or would it be fine to run without?

Any advice/suggestions/input would be greatly appreciated!! I am still 3 months from starting this cycle so not to late to make any changes that any more experienced users deem fit!
 
.5ng EOD of what? You forgot to say. If this is arimidex, that sounds like too much. .25mg eod is a more common starting dose with that much test. And you have low BF%.

hCG should be used with all cycles. Use it from Day 1 up until you start PCT. Use real hCG. Not the fake stuff.

Will you be pinning twice a week?

Make sure you have everything in hand before you start.

Have you run pre-cycle blood work yet to establish your baseline? Will you be running mid and post cycle blood work? Do you know what blood work to get and where you can go?
 
You don't need to run HCG with testosterone. I dont know why megatron is so passionate about using HCG while on cycle. Its a waste plain and simple, plus its conflicting inside your body. Youll have plenty of testosterone inside your body as is with the 500mg a week. If you want to run HCG after you can as needed, same with nolva (as needed).

I explained the reason to you siq. It is not to have your testicles produce additional testosterone while using exogenous testosterone. It is to minimize testicular atrophy and thus speed up recovery during PCT. Are you saying that using hCG during a cycle does not do this or that it is not necessary?

And correct, you do not have to do this. But it is recommended.

Yeah, my bad i was planning on starting with .5mg of arimidex EoD. Maybe start with a lower dose and up it as the cycle progresses?

Yeah, I plan on pinning twice a week 250mg each injection.
Ha, yeah I've seen where you recommend getting bloodwork done at, and I followed your advice to other ppl in the past. I've getting my baseline done in February, and I am gonna get on-cycle and after PCT bloodwork.

Up the dose of AI if blood work indicates E2 is too high. Lower it if E2 is too low. Go by blood work.
 
How important is arimidex? Some people add it to their cycle and others don't talk about it all? What is its main purpose on cycle? What r the risks to not including it?

Extremely important. Do some reading about how the aromatase enzyme "converts" (aromatizes) testosterone into estradiol. And then research the harmful effects of high estradiol in men such as edema, gynecomastia, etc. It would also be helpful to do some reading on how the HPTA works.

It is all here in these forums if you use the search bar.
