hello im new to this board, but im on musclemag.com quite a bit

im looking to do my first ever cycle, and im trying to research it a bit before i do.
Im 6'3 1/2 245ish pretty high bodyfat...im trying to get cut for summer (just like everyone) but i cant do that on my own i dont need a cutting roid, im looking for something that will give me mass that stays and isnt too extereme.

Deca?
sust?
those are my two choices for starters, could you guys please recommend which i should take or if i should consider any others? Also would it be beneficial for me to stack them with something like animal stack??

thanks for your time

400-500mg of Ethanate for 10 weeks

Something simple like that is what I'd recommend too.

But let me spell it right for you......"Test Enanthate"........sorry RH...I just couldn't resist :D
 
This thread is for newbies looking for cycles for specific goals.

Now before I get started, I have to emphisize that your diet is the key to achieving your goals. All cycles can be turned into a bulking cycle or cutting depending on your food consumption.

*Clomid therapy: 36 pills. 300mg day 1, 100mg next 10, 50mg final 10.

Solid first cycle

Week 1 to 10: 400mg of EQ
Week 1 to 10: 250mg of Test
Week 13 to 15: Clomid Therapy*

This will yield solid results. Depending on diet, training, and genetics, this cycle should yield anywhere form 15-25lbs to a first time gear user

Bulking Cycle # 1

Week 1 to 16: .5mg of arimidex EOD
Week 1 to 6: 30mg of D-bol ED
Week 1 to 10: 600mg of EQ
Week 1 to 10: 750mg of Test
Week 11 to 12: 500ius of Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) and 20mg of Nolvadex ED
Week 13 to 15: Clomid Therapy*

Bulking Cycle # 2

Week 1 to 5: 50mg of Anadrol ED
Week 1 to 6: 750mg of Test
Week 1 to 10: 400mg of Deca
Week 5 to 6: 500ius of Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) and 20mg of Nolvadex ED
Week 7 to 12: 75mg of Fina ED
Week 7 to 12: 100mg of Prop ED
Week 7 to 12: 50mg of Winstrol (winny) ED
Week 11 to 12: 500ius of Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) and 20mg of Nolavadex ED
Week 13 to 15: Clomid Therapy*

Cutting Cycle # 1

Week 1 to 8: 50mg of Prop ED
Week 1 to 8: 75mg of Fina ED
Week 1 to 8: 50mg of Winstrol (winny) ED
Week 1 to 10: 50mg of proviron ED
Week 11 to 12: 500ius of Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) with 20mg of Nolvadex ED
Week 13 to 15: Clomid therapy

Cutting Cycle # 2

Week 1 to 16: .5mg of Arimidex EOD
Week 1 to 10: 400mg of EQ
Week 1 to 8: 40mg of Oxandralone ED
Week 4 to 12: 50mg of Prop ED
Week 7 to 12: 50mg of Winstrol (winny) ED
Week 11 to 12: 500ius of Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) and 20mg of Nolvadex ED
Week 13 to 15: Clomid Therapy*

Lean Mass Cycle

Week 1 to 16: .5mg of Arimidex EOD
Week 1 to 12: 2ius of GH 5 on 2 off
Week 1 to 10: 500mg of Test
Week 1 to 12: 400mg of EQ
Week 7 to 12: 40mg of Oxanadralone
Week 11 to 12: 500ius of Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) and 20mg of Nolvadex ED
Week 14 to 16: Clomid Therapy*

Basic bridge

Week 1 to 8: 30mg of Oxandralone ED
Week 1 to 8: 10 grams of creatine and 20 grams of glutamine Ed

Experienced Bridge

Week 1 to 8: 10ius of Insulin post workout
Week 1 to 8: 10 grams of creatine and 20 grams of glutamine Ed
Week 1 to 8: 100grams of Dextrose 10 minutes after slin shot
Week 1 to 8: 150grams( 3 shakes) of WPI during active time of slin.

There are many different combination that we can all use in the Iron Game. I have only used a few. These are basic cycles that will work well for many users. I have excluded Deca as I feel its negative effects on a HPTA is esaily avoided with the use of EQ. Some will say Fina will do the same thing, but because its ester works much faster, I believe it is not as suppressive as Deca.

Remember Diet is the key to all cycles. If you dont eat enough, you wont bulk, if you eat to much, you wont cut.

Diet is the key to success in the Iron Game!!


Guys, good luck and be safe!
 
Welcome to the board bro....

1-10 400-500mg Test Enanthate
7-12 50mg Winstrol (winny) ED

and if you want you could add some Winstrol (winny) at the end.
 
thanks a lot guys this is very helpful...but why would you suggest Test Enanthate and the others over deca or sustanon?? im not questioning your knowledge, just looking for some answers.

And my diet is the best its ever been, i dont think that will be a problem

also stacking different AS is a bit expensive for me for the time being. Am i better to take them individually in seperate cycles as i get the money or save up for one big cycle?

thanks for your time

sustenon is harder to keep steady test levels without multiple shots per week , enanthate can be shot 1 time per week deca shuts you down harder than test , try the single ester test eth or cyp at 300-500 mg per week with clomod/nolvadex for post cycle therapy beginning 2 weeks after last injection , you can always try deca next time but run it with test or your love life will suffer, i hope this helps , and welcome to DAWGS house :D

Bro if you're "pretty high bodyfat" I'd take another look at your diet. I feel with diet I can literally control my bodyfat up or down, and even, for the most part, my general state of health. High quality/quantity protein, good quality fats and adjust your carbs based on need. With that you can cut, bulk, whatever suits your fancy bro. I'd like to know your age and current activity level to get an idea of your metabolic condition. I especially like to know age if you're talking "first cycle." But IMO test is best because it comes with the least amount of risk, again in my experience and opinion. It's predictable and relatively easy to "bounce back" from assuming you take the proper precautions. I agree with Mr. StoneColdNTO, keep it simple, learn and grow.

Good luck bro.

Sustanon and why you shouldnt use it by TIG
Not all test was created equal. Test is Test is Test. As much as this is true we are speaking about raw test or de esterified test. We are not talking about ester bound test.

The purpose when injecting is to do so to keep blood plasma levels as stable and at peak for as long as possible, now we cannot do this with sustanon unless it is injected every other day. If I were to draw a graph on the time release of sustanon it would have Highs & Lows (Ups & Downs). Now the average newbie does not wish to inject on an every other day basis and he certainly doesnt wish to be using that much test for a first or second cycle either. In order to keep blood plasma levels stable and reach a peak as quickly as possible you would have to go about front loading. Again something that should not really be done with sustanon.

I have read sustanon causes less water retention, sustanon causes less chance of getting gyno and less sides overall. This is not true one bit.

250mgs of Sustanon (sust) or 250mgs of enanthate?

Enanthate contains more raw test than the mixture in sust.

Did I forget to mention the Sustanon (sust) flu? The long build up of this? The long duration it takes to leave the body due to the decanoate ester?


Now before I start writing a book on this I want a serious discussion with all you Sustanon (sust) lovers

Peace


Deca and You by Macro
A short reply to 2thick- on the anabolic board

In honor of Ranger-who knows well the potential evils of Deca

Nandrolone, popularly known as Deca, is a classified as a progestin. Deca derives many of its benefits from its progestenic nature: including, but not limited to, increase IM fat storage and increased fluid retention in the joints from glucocorticoid(GC) stimulation.

Deca is the most widely used form of prescription contraception in the first world. Deca is superior to testosterone as a form of birth control because its progestenic effects which result in rapid onset of azoospermia. Progestins are used similarly in women, progestins given to women in birth control pills and other drugs such as norgestrel and norethidrone are classified as 19-nor-testosterone or 19 nor- progesterone derivatives. Natural progesterone plays an important role in sexual arousal- affecting GABA to a considerable extent. The addition of progestins like deca which compete with progesterone and decrease its production may result in drastically reduced sexual arousal. Interestingly enough, the chemical castration of sex offenders, is acheived through the use of a 19-nortestosterone derivative.

This brings us to the second most common problem with the use of progestenic drugs like Deca, the breast tissue has both PR(progesterone receptors) and ER(estrogen receptors) and stimulation of either will result in new tissue formation and growth. This will vary considerably from individual to individuals based on the numbers and ratio of receptors in the tissue. Some individuals have more PR, which will make them more susceptable to Gyno. Another suspected factor is that there are slightly physiologically different PR, as well as ER and AR, which may effect binding and expression of synthetic progestins either positively or negatively.

The use of Anti-estrogens and Aromatase-inhibitors will help by reducing stimulation of the ER in the breast tissue. However, those with high concentrations of PR or PR whose physiology allows for greater binding or expression of progestins will be faced with developing Gynomacastia.

In short

1. DECA dick is real

2. DECA does cause Gyno

3. DECA is progestin it must be fought with anti-progestins

4. Use of Nolvadex and Arimidex will help, but only by reducing ER stimulation.

Peace

my diet is good, i just have a naturally large bodytype. Im not fat but im large. Looking at me you can tell i workout but im certainly not ripped by any means.
right now im 18 turning 19 in august, i know i might seem a bit young but ive been waiting to try AS for years
as for my activity level...i workout 5 days a week doing 20-30 minutes high intensity cardio 4-6 days a week. Other than working out my job is a fairly active one (constantly moving, lifting etc) and im into sports a lot.
 
I didn't know about your age bro...i correct what I said..no gear for you bro just cardio and diet.

Others may not agree but I feel you should wait a few more years. Hell you could have endogenous test levels that are damn high, you don't know. If you're diet is good and your training is good then I say stick with that and see what you can get out of that for a few more years. Why rush it?

Me neither, I just assumed by your size that you were older. I also take back what I previously said about gear......go natural for a few more years and concentrate on diet and training.

Two problems with this. Andy13 basically debunked the overrepeated post over at CEM. Sustanon is not a horrible Test form. Once you have the first week out of the way, which it should be shot eod, Sustanon basically acts like a single ester. Do a search over there, read it, youll be a beliver.

Why is Deca everyone's favortie Drug to hate? Yes deca dick is real, but so is fina dick. But, can be prevented if you use Test, and we all should use Test in our cycles, as Im sure anyone on here will advocate.
Deca may cause gyno, but 8 times out of 10, if you find out what caused gyno in 10 individuals, it will be either Test or Dbol, drugs which aromatize at a high rate. Not too many people who run Deca alone (which i think is a a bad idea btw) will get gyno. Deca does not have to be fought with anti-progesterins, never once has there been a lcinical case where progesterin caused gyno. Also do a search on CEM, nandi pretty much debunked that too.
