New to forum introduction

[Ags43z]

Hi guys, new to the forum so I figured I’d give a quick introduction. I’m 25 years old, 5’11 172 pounds and about 12% bf. Trained somewhat in high school but have been training seriously for about 6 years. Looking into going the enhanced route, after doing some research I’m considering doing a first cycle of 400 mg test e or c for 12 weeks pinning every 3.5 days. I’m getting my preliminary labs done for bloodwork in a few days to asses natural test levels and general health indicators before doing the cycle. Any thoughts or advice would be appreciated.

Welcome, lots to be learned here. What’s your diet like?

Welcome.

Welcome

Welcome aboard, by your intro it’s obvious you’ve done a lot of your homework! We’re glad to have you, your cycle looks good, I would personally do MWF injections, but a 3.5 day split will also work fine. Bloodwork is paramount and your off to a great start already having that planned! There’s tons of great people and info here!

Welcome aboard!!!

Glad to have you

 

[Ags43z]

Thank you, the advice is also appreciated. I’ve seen the MWF protocol recommended before, my main reason for wanting to go every 3.5 is my lack of experience with needles and wanting to inject as least often as possible while still maintaining stable blood levels

 

[Ags43z]

Thanks! What have your results been like? Have you done bloodwork while on cycle?

 

[Ags43z]

Thanks! I’m extremely strict with my diet, to the point of weighing and portioning food to track calories. I’ve recently just done a “cut” if you can call it that on 3200 calories. May sound like a lot for a cut but I’m extremely active and only wanted to lose about five pounds over the course of about four months. Part of the reason I have been considering a cycle is I feel like my weight/muscle mass has pretty much peaked within a range even though I’m still pretty small relatively speaking.

Welcome to ugmuscle brother glad to have you around and im glad to hear that you are getting baseline bloodwork done and you have a smooth first cycle running 400mg/ml.
Remember its all about your diet and training as long as you train and eat big you will put on mass while running the cycle.
Do you have everything that you will need upfront that’s a really good thing to do you don’t want to get caught without an AI or your pct protocol when you need them its important.

The only other thing that I will say is that waiting as long as you can before you start using gear is the best idea. If you’re really 25 or just read on other forums that you had to be 25 its a good idea to wait as long as possible so that you can get the most out of your cycle.
If you start early its for sure that you will be a trt candidate most likely later in life and pinning every week sounds great until your just pinning to have testosterone and you don’t get gains from trt.
I like your setup and I like that you are doing labs but just keep it in mind that there are side effects especially if you start early in life.

Good luck and good gains brother

185 pounds to 201. That’s some water weight too tho. Size and strenght have gone up. I bulked at 25 years old drinking a gallon to a gallon and hafl of raw milk a day on top of my food for about a year and a hafl. Went from 160 to 180. 5’9

I’m doing 15 weeks

 

[Dirtnasty]

Welcome currently doing first cycle of test e only 500-600 a week sometimes I fill my syringe a little more. I pin every Monday Thursday and take aromisin every 3 to four days.

 

[Ags43z]

Awesome progress look forward to hearing your final results. Have you experienced any sides on that dosage?

 

[Ags43z]

Thanks man, I’ve definitely considered that and haven’t fully committed to the cycle yet but am doing more and more research as I get more comfortable with it. Want to make sure I am 100% prepared and cover all of the bases before I pull the trigger. At 25 I feel like I still could make some gains naturally as I consider myself a late bloomer physically but I think my genetics really hold me back from realizing the fruits of my labor from training and nutrition. I’ve always struggled to put on muscle and have become interested in pushing my body past its natural limitations within reason.

 

[Bigmurph6]

Im happy to help you with any questions you have brother as long as you understand what you are about to do and it seems like you are researching heavily.
Have you ever thought about using proviron in your cycle?

 

[Ags43z]

Awesome what kind of progress have you seen? And have you gotten blood work done on cycle or experienced any sides?

 

[Dirtnasty]

Unfortunately gainz and bloodwork have not been optimal due to shutdown. I was putting on great strength before gym shut down they are coming back quickly now that I’m getting back in. Have leaned up soMe. I’m not really trying to add size but just strength and tighten up a bit. I’ve posted pics in CENSORED dedicated thread

 

[GillyTheKid]

everyone’s different but not really. I have little to no acne. But I do hold water so I take arimidex 1mg about every 3-4 days.

If you start your cycle make sure you have your PCT and AI before so your not scrambling and write everything down.

Also look up some pinning videos to make yourself comfortable. It’s mental thing but once you get it it’s easy.
If you need any links of videos just let me know I’ll tell you the Pin vids I use. Illtellyoy what to search
