Long time reader and I'd like to get everyone's opinions on what I've been doing the past 11 months. I am a healthy 6 foot, 190 pound muscular 35 yo male who has been bodybuilding for the past 20 years. Last year I got on TRT and HCG. I wanted to get bigger/stronger but I didn't want to go on and off anabolic cycles. I'm not looking to be gigantic or Arnold-like, I simply want to look like a damn good bodybuilder but not to the extreme. So I decided to try the following and be on this cycle continuously. I get my labs every 3 months and everything is checking out with zero problems thus far.
Weeks 1-12: 400mg/week Test Cyp and 500 HCG/week (to keep the boys nice and healthy), Arimidex 0.5mg EOD or daily (takes some experimenting to get this right as I am sensitive to estrogen).
Weeks 12-22: 50mg Anavar, 175mg/week Test Cyp, 400 HCG, Arimidex 0.5 once a week, liver supplement.
Repeat.
Side notes: At one point my nipples felt sensitive but I simply added 20mg Nolvadex daily for 4 weeks and problem solved. I take a few other over the counter supplements like fish oil and a multi as well. My diet is good (not great). I follow an intermittent fasting diet where I eat almost whatever I want under two conditions:
1) My daily caloric intake is at the value of my current goal (whether it be to maintain, lose weight, or gain) and yes I count calories.
2) My protein intake for the day is reached.
My RBC and Hct were slightly elevated around week 10 but I donated blood which lowered it to acceptable levels. Lipids and all were fine. Liver function tests were normal which leads me to think I might be able to get away with a 12 week Anavar cycle but I don't want to push my luck.
Now my question: can I simply repeat this cycle indefinitely as long as my labs check out? I am always "on" something and getting fantastic results, my labs are normal, and I'm not "sensitizing" myself to testosterone as I do cycle it to a lower dose but I am not sure if this will work long term.
Thoughts?
