test without d-bol

[timms29]

i just started my first cycle i chose to go with test E 500mg wk for 10 weeks
with nolva for post cycle therapy (pct)
i also have some deca but after further study and research i decided to run the test-e only since it's my first cycle i also have some clomid but i also want to save that for my second cycle i was unable to get any d-bol to kick start my cycle will it make a huge difference? and should i run the nolva while on cycle or just for post cycle therapy (pct) or both??

BTW

That's fine. Test solo is actually an oft-recommended 1st cycle. Nolva during post cycle therapy (pct) only. You should have an Aromatase inhibitor (AI) on hand in case you get estrogen symptoms.

10 weeks is a little short. Go 12 if you can.

I would say at least 12 if not 15. around week 7 is when you will start seeing some great gaince and then by week 10 you're done, that's not good IMO. Also, you need to get some Adex to run through this cycle to prevent sides. Although 500 mg of Test is not all that much, sides can still occure and it's better to be safe than sorry. IMO again, I would use the clomid after the cycle. Start 2 weeks after your last shot, but then again others like Nolva. It's a crapshoot IMO. I just use the clomid.

How is your training intensity? What is your diet consisting of? These are some simple fixes that could help you get far more out of your cycle if they are even off a little. Give some more information and you shall rceive a plethora of helpful info to get you off to a great cycle where you will see some nice gains. The D-bol kickstart isn't all that great IMO either as it is just mostly water bloat and you will be sure to lose most of it in the end anyhow. You made a good choice by stickig with Test only for your first cycle. GOOD JOB on that and props to you for listening to the vets on that one.

Test only is a good choice, save the deca for your next cycle. Also droppuing the dbol will not hinder any gains. 500mg will give you good results. 10 weeks will do, i know alot of people will say run 12 weeks but assuming you have 20ml of test dosed at 250mg/ml that comes out to 500mg for 10 weeks. Sometimes it can be inconvenient to get another bottle of test to run 2 weeks longer.
