    First cycle question
    on: 2016-03-17 09:34:42
    Hey man, First off I would like to thank you for all the q and a's you do on here. I've been reading these non stop for the last couples of days trying to learn more about this stuff and it's been really helpful. I want to try my first cycle. I'm 34, 240lbs, 6'3". I've been working out since I was 12 natural. My diet is clean. For my first cycle I'm going to take your advise and stick to tes. I would like to start off low, maybe 250 mg per week to see how I react. I'm pretty sure I have normal levels of natural testosterone but never had it tested. Do you think 250 mg is a good point to start and would I see any gains or is it not high enough. I'm not trying to get huge since I'm already a big guy and Iin good shape but more just work on some things I'm lacking in like chest and ham strings that I can't seem to get any bigger no matter what I do. Also should I still use -adex during cycle and do a pct with clomid. Should I take anything else to keep side effects to a minimum. Any help would be appreciated and thanks again for all the info

    I have seen guys do really well on 250mg test per week. 500mg is not a big cycle though. Figire that 250mg EW is close to being a hormone replacement dose. You can always try it though and see how you do, then go up in your next cycle. It'll take several weeks to kick in, so if you think you'd like to do more, you won't really know until the cycle is half over. At that point, adding more would take another several weeks to kick in completely. A middle ground may be to use 375mg per week for the first run. 

     

    And yes, you want to use adex for estrogen control on cycle for estrogen control. Then still do a PCT after using Clomid.
