Questions about 1st Cycle..Again but pls!

[Sphear]

Alright ill start this off like this,

im 25 5'6" 170 pounds 190 was my heaviest.BF% im guessing is about 14-12% almost have a 6 pack put it that way.

for the last 4 years ive been training on and off this year being my most intense.

Im starting off on what i concluded to be the staple of starting cycles that being

Test/500mg/week and Dbol 30mg a day
i have my Arimidex as well to cycle on with it.

Ive done my research and im fairly certain im going to use nova for my PCT.

I have a few questions tho,

1) Biggest concern is bitch tits, Arimidex helps prevent this correct?

2) how many liters of water should i intake each day?

3)is it safe to use creatine or testosterone boosters during cycle?

4)do i use the test pre workout?

5)should i use the 22 or 23 gauge syringe?

6) how many grams of protein a day do i need? i hear 1gper pound but some say 2.

I would really appreciate novice advice on this even tho i have researched well into this its just comforting to hear from ppl who know what they are doing. Thanks!

1) yes it helps
2) as much water as you can. around 80 oz's
3) creatine is a big help. test booster is no need when your using test
4) prework out is your choice. caffeine always helps. creatine is also good
5) wouldn't go any bigger than a 23g
6) at least 1.5g per body pound

I would go with exmestane over adex, and maybe add some clomid to your pct.

Can you explain why i should use exmestane instead? I want to be prepaired

Ive also heard to not use Dbol on the first cycle? And on that note to anyone who has done the oral ones are they really that painful? or is it different per person?

 

[scottomus0]

the reason they say not to use orals in a first cycle is incase you encouter sides you wont know whether that its the test or the dbol that is causing it

 

[Shaptown]

Scott is right. Firstly, drop the dbol. You don't need it for your first cycle.

Secondly, as teddy said, you should use Aromasin over Arimidex. There are several advantages: there is no limit to the amount of estrogen conversion you can inhibit, it will not detrimentally effect your lipid profile, etc.

Thirdly, while you "can" use NOLVA (notice there is an L in it and yet you said you've done research on it for post cycle therapy (pct) lol...anyway), however Clomid is a better option. Nolva inhibits IGF-1, which will make it difficult to maintain your gains; during which post cycle therapy (pct) is a critical period.

Use some HCG; while you could undoubtedly get away without it for a simple cycle like this, it will only help you recover from the cycle faster.

You didn't really outline your cycle appropriately by the way. Here is what I would recommend for a first cycle, as well as the manner in which you should outline it:

Weeks 1-12: 500mg Test E (split the shots between Mon/Thurs)
Weeks 1-17: 12.5mg Aromasin ED
Weeks 4-13: 500IU Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) (split into 250IU with each Test shot)
Weeks 14-17: 50mg Clomid ED (ED=Every Day)

Sound and simple advise right there my man.
Do this..save the dbol and if your still into it..do it next time.

 

[Sphear]

Thanks for the advice, although im thinking of not doing the hcg. Tho i would like to post some before pics soon so you guys can evaluate my progress.

I wont do the Dbol just the test, tho i have one question how will i know if the test e isnt causing gyno if im useing Aromasin at the same time?

 

[Envyme]

You're cycle is just like mine.

I'm doing 500mg of Test E a week Mon/Thurs (250)
I got 2 boxes of Aromasin.
Clomid for PCT, but I also have Nolvadex.

Leave orals out for your 1st run.. after all my research the best way to get into the game is a nice Test Only cycle, with a solid Aromatase inhibitor (AI), and a good complete PCT.


Goood luck!!

You can never research enough, read, read, read.

I have been researching, i want to know as much as i can do to it the proper way, just there is so much to take in!

I already have a very solid frame lean and muscular but im at a stand still i cant get any bigger it seems...

So i wanted to try this and get advice from ppl who have the experience and knowledge.

 

[Envyme]

Pretty much same thing here....
I spent a longgg time reading/asking questions/looking over forums etc... Research each and eveything. Your gear, your Aromatase inhibitor (AI), Your post cycle therapy (pct) .. why it works, what does it do, when to dose how to dose how much.. Know all your do's and don'ts.

Most these guys on the forums know their stuff, PM them.. ask questions.

As long as your....
Training.
Diet.
Sleep.
Gear.
post cycle therapy (pct).
are all in check you should have a solid cycle and a great run.
EAT EAT EAT.

I cant seem to get my hands on Aromasin, would it be alright if i used arimidex? or is it less effective? Do ppl not use it because of the cholesterol gain?

 

[Sphear]

Can any one explain this? or are the roughly the same?
