everyone says test only for a first cycle. The reason these guys are saying don't run the deca is becuase if you get sides (ex. Gyno), you won't know which compound it's coming from. Test will spike up your estrogen and deca will do the same to your prolactin, so you will have a bigger chance of getting sides.
I don't know why no one reccomends this and correct me if I'm wrong, but wouldn't a good first cycle be test at 400 or 500mg for 12 weeks and maybe Anavar or T-Bol for first 5-6 weeks. Basically kickstart it with a oral that gives less sides, and is less potent than somthing llike D-Bol.
Id peronally go with
test 500mg w1-12
T-Bol 40mg w1-5
this way you don't have to wait 4-5 weeks to notice a difference.
I know on my first cycle I was expecting the test to be working 20 minutes after my first shot lol, and I was dissapointed when I realized that's not how it works, hence the TBol kickstart
Top, whats your PCT look like?
