im wondering which type of test to use for a first time cycle. i have read that test e or test c is usually used for 1st timers. however i would rather use test prop as i've heard it kicks in much faster but im not sure if that is advisable for someone who's never done test before?


is it true that a 8wk cycle of test prop will yield the same gains as a 12 wk cycle of test e? or have i been misinformed?


Really appreciate any help you can give!
 
Test e

I'd go with test e for a first cycle. You only have to inject twice a week as compared to prop which is eod. In addition test e is easier to inject for a first timer. Prop can be rather hard b/c esters are shorter. Prop does kick in sooner but for a first timer I'd go with test e or c.

What are your statts? post cycle therapy (pct) plans? Running an Aromatase inhibitor (AI) or HCG?
 
yupp longer ester is better. and besides straight prop hurts. I made the mistake of doing 2ml straight shot of prop in my quad in march, was on crutches for a week :D
 
E or C. If you've never pinned before, you need to go with a long ester. It's not as much fun as you think it is. I see no reason to want to go with a short ester when a longer one is available. It will just take a few weeks to kick in. You should still make solid gains in those first few weeks if your diet and training is in check.
 
E or C are basically the same. As a first timer your first few pins may be painful anyway. Keep it simple. Even though they are long esters they will begin to work in the first week but it takes around four weeks to build to levels that produce gains.
 
thanks for all the replies!
looks like i'll go for test e if i decide to do a cycle


im 28 yrs old yet i look very young for my age, (people think im 21-24) so im a bit worried my test levels havent fully developed yet, which is why im apprehensive about running a cycle. for example, i didn't really hit puberty till i was 16yrs old so do u think i still may be too young to do a cycle?




really appreciate all the helpful feedback guys!

At 28, you should be fine. One of the big issues with cycling young is growth plates. Typically, men in their early 20s (20-23) haven't had their growth plates close just yet and they're still growing. The ballpark for considering gear is 25 years old just to be sure that the plates have closed. Test levels don't have as much to do with it.

In any case, I highly recommend having bloodwork done before your cycle anyway. You want a baseline. After your cycle, you want to wait a few weeks past your PCT and have bloodwork done again to compare the results to make sure you've fully recovered.
