Questions about Sust250 (1st cycle)

[2lowintegra]

First let me say that i am 5'10", 25, 175lbs and approx 12% bf and have been working out for 4 years. i have been reading a lot and doing research for about the last year and have finalized my decision to do a cycle. I have choosen to do sust250 / 10weeks. I have a few questions. please only reply to these questions if you know what you're talking about, i don't want any misinformation.

1. i know that a lot of people say that since i am only running 250/week that i won't have to worry too much about gyno, but i believe i am slightly pre-disposed to it because i do have a bit left over from puberty and i do have larger than avg nipples (when they are not hard anyway). Obviously i want to avoid gyno at all cost and am wondering what would be the best way to do this? i have heard that i should jump on nolvadex at the first signs of nipple sensitivity and itch. but how much nolva should i run when this begins? and for how long? also, would it be beneficial to just run nolva throughout the whole cycle to avoid gyno completely? is nolva the best at stopping gyno? or would you suggest something else?

2. i know that post cycle therapy (pct) must include the use of clomid beginning at 3 weeks after the last injection. but could someone write out the appropriate doses for me.

Thanx guys, i really want to benefit a lot from this and am trying to avoid it being a regretful experience at all cost. I"M sure some of these questions might seem trivial, but i am trying to arm myself with all the knowledge i can prior to 'taking the plunge' as it were. thanx!

First off..........Welcome to Steroidology !!

Before I answer your questions, I'd like to make a suggestion. Do an amp of Sustanon (sust) every 4 days, that will give you 437 mg/week, you might make some gains on only 250, but you'd be much happier with 437.....

If you do get any signs of gyno developing, start taking 40 mg of Nolva/day, until the symptoms subside, then continue taking 20 mg/day for the duration of your cycle. You could start taking it at 10-20 mg/day from the start of your cycle, but I would wait and see if you get any symptoms first.

Another option would be to take a low dose of an anti-aromatase from the beginning, to stop the conversion to estrogen in the first place.

As for post cycle therapy (pct) & Clomid;
day 1 - 300 mg
day 2-11 - 100 mg/day
day 12-21 - 50 mg/day

thanx SC, i've read a lot of your threads, and was hoping you would chime in and help me out! thanx man. and actually i had considered doing 1cc every 5 days which would make my 10 amps last approximately 8 weeks (i considered doing this in order to stabilize blood levels because i hear that with a multi esther test like sust250, you will have very unstable blood levels if you only take 1 shot a week because the half lives of each ester is different, so by taking 1 shot every 4-5 days, you could combat that). please feel free to comment on this.

Also, since i really only want really lean gains, do you have any tips regarding what to eat. i mean i am currently getting about 180g protein, and i am trying to minimize carb and fat intake. i should probably bump up the carbs a bit when i start the cycle.

You might want to up your protein, maybe shoot for 1.5 grams per pound of lean body weight. Carbs, just make sure you get then from clean sources, like yams, rice, oats, stuff like that. Fats, don't hold back too much on them, just ensure they are essential ones from sources like flax or fish oil.

I did something very similar for my first cycle-- omnidren-- it almost the same more or less-- I did 500 on my first week then 250 every week for 10 weeks with dbol . Keep the nova on hand, if you were using only 250 per week and dbol I don't think you will have too much problem but everyones different. Your going to gain water-- if the water gain gets really heavy then really watch for gyno. If your not taking any tabs with this ccyle then I would up the dose to what Stone Cold suggested-- you have a good cycle set up with ptc. I did'nt use it years ago and I came back good but I would recommend it anyways.
Get some type of diuretic-- you could gain a bit of water and if you are worried about lean mass this will help-- usually by the end of the cycle everything will tighten up.
With Stone Colds advice your all set
Good luck-- enjoy

several years ago, I did my first cycle with Sustanon (sust) 250/wk and decca 100/wk. Didn't get anything out of it. 250/wk is way too low in my opinion. Now I know better
