did you prefer HCG last 2 weeks of cycle over running HCG the whole cycle? Read the running it whole cycle was more ideal. Just curious.Back when I did PCT, I liked HCG the last 2-4 weeks at the end of the cycle, and Clomid in PCT, with like maybe some SNS Reduce XT for Cortisol, and maybe Mtest or another good Test booster. Those were always the smoothest and best PCTs.
Yeah, when using HCG I always liked it during that last 2-4 weeks versus the whole cycle. That still helped tremendously when I would run a PCT. Even though it does help prevent testicular atrophy more by taking it the whole cycle, but it can also increase estrogen and the need for an Ai. I always have an Ai (Exemestane) on hand, but I prefer not to use it if possible.did you prefer HCG last 2 weeks of cycle over running HCG the whole cycle? Read the running it whole cycle was more ideal. Just curious.
Yes those two are great together, and ideal, if you can afford it. TB-500 can get really expensive.BPC-157 + TB-500 ??
What does your training program look like, and your eating program or diet?Me 3 weeks prior to starting the cycle. Haven’t trained in 4 months via my doctor’s discretion. Meaning no training 3 months prior to a hernia repair and 1 month no training post surgery.

Stop speaking ChineseOkay so the doctor said: “on the old muscle test grading system it’s a 2.”
“On the new muscle test grading system its a 3b: (moderate partial tear- tear with increased maximum diameter- retraction and hematoma).”
What are your goals? Because it looks like your eating less then 2000 calories a day, maybe a little more depending on the size of the beef meal but yikes, I'd be absolutely starving. My maintenance calories are almost 4000I workout a 4-day split, 1 day off and start another 4days on.
Back
Chest
Shoulders
Arms
(Would usually combined arms day into chest day/biceps and back/triceps and then do legs) but can’t do legs do to injury.
My diet since my hernia surgery has been on point. I weigh/measure all my food, 4 meals/day.
Breakfast: 4eggs, 1 cup egg whites, 150grams of oatmeal mixed in with 1 scoop of protein powder and frozen blueberries.
Pre-workout: chicken breast, white rice, asparagus
Post-workout: protein shake with 1 cup of egg whites, unsweetened/unflavored almond milk and 2 scoops of protein then same as pre-workout meal.
Dinner: either 90/10 ground beef or lean cuts of steak, brown rice, salad with Walden farms dressing, and green beans
Okay, so moderate partial tear (easy enough to understand), tear with increased maximum diameter (the muscle tore and balled up into a ball (aka: increased maximum diameter), retraction (the muscle has become detached from the insertion point and retracted into a ball. Hematoma = pool of clotted blood under the layer of hamstring muscle tear.Stop speaking Chinese
I was joking lolOkay, so moderate partial tear (easy enough to understand), tear with increased maximum diameter (the muscle tore and balled up into a ball (aka: increased maximum diameter), retraction (the muscle has become detached from the insertion point and retracted into a ball.

Does that help?

Well pretty much, it’s just not that simple. A bunch of things can impact how many androgen receptors you have based on diet and exercise as well as genetics and even how much androgens you have floating around in your bloodstream. Taking more gear can actually increase androgen receptor density.How much gear can you use before you “spill over”?
Let’s say hypothetically: “you have 900 androgen receptors and you take 1000mg of test. Each mg of test binds to 1 androgen receptor”.
Then the rest turns to estrogen, DHT or binds to SHBG?
That was a very well thought out explanation and example with the bell curve.Well pretty much, it’s just not that simple. A bunch of things can impact how many androgen receptors you have based on diet and exercise as well as genetics and even how much androgens you have floating around in your bloodstream. Taking more gear can actually increase androgen receptor density.
Also, I don’t think the binding is that simplistic, but I can’t really speak to that because it’s not something I really understand myself.
As far as converting to estrogen or DHT, you’ll get more just because with more test floating around, there’s more chance it’ll interact with enzymes. It’s also gonna be something that’ll vary from person to person and depending on what gear you’re using.
The easiest way to think about it, is that it will follow something like a bell curve. There will be a point, or more likely a range of doses you can use that will get you significantly better/more results than using less, but at the same time, taking more might do better but you get less return on investment. Your results per milligram will decrease past a certain point. This is why some people take multiple grams of gear a week, because the results do improve, but for most people it just isn’t worth the side effects and cost.
They called it desoxy T because it lacks the 3 keto group and has a pi double bond on the 2,3 position. I know it's just a name they gave it but the name they gave it would imply it has no 5a hydrogen but instead another double bond hence the A ring would be a diene? Not that it matters lol!It's supposed to be unmethylated pheraplex but it was nothing like Phera
Nobody is going to say it which is what it is but I gotta ask why you would run a cycle like this when you have not been training for months and no offense but your starting point isn't at any type of level warranting a cycle of this magnitude?Well I began my cycle last week.
Test P: 300mg/week (just for 2 weeks until the Test E kicks in)
Test E: 500mg/week
Tren A: 300mg/ week (just for 2 weeks until the Tren E kicks in)
Tren E: 500mg/week
EQ: 500mg/week
Weeks 1-4 20mg superdrol
Weeks 12-16 Anavar 50mg
Did you not read my previous posts…? Before blindly blue-balling me!Nobody is going to say it which is what it is but I gotta ask why you would run a cycle like this when you have not been training for months and no offense but your starting point isn't at any type of level warranting a cycle of this magnitude?
Maybe your super experienced and perhaps don't respond well to anabolics but I mean just the 500mg Testosterone would be enough most likely to see amazing gains! The 500mg EQ is a solid addition to that cycle that would produce excellent gains!
Your starting point just doesn't make sense to put your health at risk? On top of that you said you have a major depression disorder??? I think your not being very considerate of your position! Your running a cycle someone would run when they are close to there genetic limit and is attempted to put on a few more pounds of muscle for competing!!!
You can do you but this is just not making any sense to me? Even if you looked like me I would question the need for such a powerful cycle! Also your running Tren and superdrol with mental health issues and on top of that your taking doses of EQ that can cause severe anxiety in a certain percentage of the population???
Good luck bro I hope it works out for you but your probably going to end up with nearly the same gains as if you took a fraction of that cycle while pitting your health both physical and mental in jeopardy!!!
I gave you my opinion first off but I reiterate my belief that this cycle makes no sense for someone who has been not training for so long and lost almost all his gains! You would get almost identical results from 500 test and 500 eq the 500 tren is just going to cause side effects!Did you not read my previous posts…? Before blindly blue-balling me!
I and my therapist agree that I am happier whilst on cycle (I’m very open to her about it).
Have you seen my body before all this happened!? …..probably not.
5’10”
215lbs
10-12% body fat
Then please leave my thread and your dumbass opinion to yourself.I gave you my opinion first off but I reiterate my belief that this cycle makes no sense for someone who has been not training for so long and lost almost all his gains! You would get almost identical results from 500 test and 500 eq the 500 tren is just going to cause side effects!
Also why are you front loading when your receptors haven't been stimulated in a long time from neither cycling nor training? The superdrol is just overkill on top of overkill at this point! You can do whatever you want but superdrol and tren don't seem smart when your mental health is in question? The eq is potentially a bad choice as well but if you know your body then fine blast your ass off for no reason go ahead no one is stopping you!
Bro then don't post on forums and ask people opinions!Then please leave my thread and your dumbass opinion to yourself.
Your acting like a 5 year old who doesn't want to eat their vegetables.Then please leave my thread and your dumbass opinion to yourself.
I ran a cycle with: test, deca, eq, Tren, and anavar. That’s the one you missed.Bro then don't post on forums and ask people opinions!
I quite simple stated that you were running an excessive cycle for someone coming off injuries and not training for months. I did not intend to insult your current physique injuries and time off happens to us all I never said you were always at this point. I just simply stating that between muscle memory and relatively fresh androgen receptors a cycle like that is overkill and with your mental condition taking both Tren at such a high dose WITH superdrol at a full 20mg ED along with the other compounds was unnecessary and potentially a bad idea!
I never said don't run a cycle but why do you believe you need this much? I did some research to see what your prior cycles looked like and bro two years ago you said your largest cycle ever was 500mg Testosterone and superdrol 20mg. Then you ran a cycle after that of Test 500, mast 300 and epistane. Then shortly after you mentioned how you respond well to between 400 to 600 EQ but I didnt see what cycle that was so you must have run one somewhere in there? Then you ran an oral only cycle of three different quasi legal steroids supplements in a 12 week cycle??? Maybe I missed a few cycles in between but it looks like you have never run a cycle like this before! Not even close bro???
Maybe I'm wrong but bro unless your running three cycles a year where did you go from 500mg Test and 20mg Superdrol for 12 weeks to pro competitive cycles???
I don't mean to call you out but I'm now actually concerned for your well being at this point especially since you said in another thread from 2021 that you had exasperated mental health symptoms from a cycle you were on??? I did skim through so maybe I took everything out of context but...
I read that you got injured and had to abort this cycle! You get injured alot bro I hope you end up being OK and please I'm trying to help you out honestly I don't think when you go back on cycle your gonna need anything like close to this one and throwing the kitchen sink in your cycles is just gonna be excessive sides unless your close to your genetic limit!
I know this all sounds rough and I'm sorry it sounds this way but I am trying to help you I sound like an asshole though and maybe I am being one right now idk I'm not trying to be but... I don't even want to press the reply button but I guess I am?
You're not using anything to its full potential you're doing it ass backwards. That's the point you're missing.I ran a cycle with: test, deca, eq, Tren, and anavar. That’s the one you missed.
If you are so high and mighty, what would you suggest I run then?
Granted a wanted to blast this cycle because like you said I have very fresh receptors and a lot of muscle memory. So why not use them to their full potential?
On another thread I stated I recently lost 50lbs. So yes I am a scrawny, sub 10% bf little bitch. I’ve gotten clearance from my doctors to train and take gear again. So I’m itching to get to being 210-215lbs sub 10% body fat. I have extreme body dysmorphia right now.Your acting like a 5 year old who doesn't want to eat their vegetables.
He has valid points and I will add to it. You're wasting a lot of your gear right now because there's only so much you can make use of at a certain time. When your body fat is that high you're going to lose a whole bunch of androgens to receptors in your fat cells instead of your muscle cells and you can't overcompensate that by taking more. Also in the very beginning when I thought you were eating 2,000 calories and you told me you're eating over 5,000. Giving your body fat percentage at the beginning you were eating way too much food and it doesn't matter what you take you can't overcompensate.
You want to actually make some progress then here's what you need to do. Come off everything or a bare minimum drop down to a hormone replacement therapy dose and spend the next six to eight months dieting until you have visible abs.
Then at that point you're going to double up your dose of testosterone or go back on cycle and you're going to start from scratch week by week adding numbers to the bar week by week making assessments and keeping your body fat under control. Maybe by week 6 or 8:00 you're up to 600 total milligrams of beer and that's where you would finish out the remainder of your cycle for however long you wish it to be.
But regardless of where you used to be, the higher your body fat is the worse your insulin sensitivity is and when it's like that you will gain more fat and build less muscle. There's no arguing because there's no two ways about it.
I recommend most people get down to about 10% body fat before starting a cycle and you started your cycle close to 30% body fat. That's not taking a jab at you it's just drawing attention to what was presented to us. Well there's no 100% right way to run a cycle there are lots of wrong ways to run a cycle and you're doing it one of the wrong ways and ultimately you're leaving gains on the table and you're wasting a ton of money because your body can't make use of half the stuff you're using
I have off of everything (even creatine and protein powder) since August 11th, 2022. I just recently got clearance from my physicians to go at it again.Start low, finish high.
At my biggest I'm exactly where you said you use to be. 5'9, 212-215 @10%
That's where I'm at in my maresearchchems flyer.
I was on 300 test, 300mast and lgd 4033.
Nothing else, because I had came out of a huge cut. Now if I wanted to progress past that then yes I need to take more, but more from the beginning dosent mean 2x the progress.
How long have you been. On cycle since your last pct or cruise, less then 200mg test only
Okay maybe a better question would be how long have you been on your current cycleI have off of everything (even creatine and protein powder) since August 11th, 2022. I just recently got clearance from my physicians to go at it again.
I’m not on a cycle, I’m planning a cycle.Okay maybe a better question would be how long have you been on your current cycle
Okay, I'm going to have to go back through your thread a little bit cuz I'm all confused now LOL. But I do stand by what I said, I mean you're an adult at the end of the day you're going to do what you want I'm just giving my opinion. But even now to this day I still start all my cycles with the bare minimum and build up as the cycle goes on.I’m not on a cycle, I’m planning a cycle.
Seemed fine to me.I made my last couple posts via talk to text while I'm driving on the highway from work so if there's a bunch of typos or words came out wrong my bad
I liked this part!Maybe we skipped the trend and the Orals can we use a little bit of cleanse and some t3 instead.
So the picture you posted in this thread of you being 30% body fat... This is not your current state? Pardon me if I don't believe you being sub 10%bf and in any muscular condition to be running any cycle period. Nor do I believe you were 215 at 12%. Why don't you, IDK train on TRT for a while until you don't look like a before picture for jenny craigOn another thread I stated I recently lost 50lbs. So yes I am a scrawny, sub 10% bf little bitch.

Those are the reasons I want to blast.
If you have a better recommendation then politely outline a detailed cycle like @Smont did.
That picture is 7 months prior to the beginning of this thread. So last January the picture was taken.So the picture you posted in this thread of you being 30% body fat...

Your 1-20 week plan honestly should have deca at the beginning, deca is a much longer ester.than test e. No reason to hold back on it, then for shits and giggles I'd throw in a 8 week oral of your choosing at the endThat picture is 7 months prior to the beginning of this thread. So last January the picture was taken.
Its a free world, believe what you want to believe. I’m not here to brag. I’m here to
to watch, read, learn and debate (yes things get heated and people have different opinions at times).
Not to be rude but I can’t tell if you are being sarcastic or not?Your 1-20 week plan honestly should have deca at the beginning, deca is a much longer ester.than test e. No reason to hold back on it, then for shits and giggles I'd throw in a 8 week oral of your choosing at the end
Nope, about which part did you think that?Not to be rude but I can’t tell if you are being sarcastic or not?
Everyone else is stating to start with low test and work my way up. You are suggesting to start Deca on week 1 right?Nope, about which part did you think that?
Ah, reason to start the deca day one is that it'll start to kick in week 6-8ish? So why start it so late to where you'll only benefit for a minimum amount of time? It's not like 300mg is a big dose, so there's no harm in it, only benefit.Everyone else is stating to start with low test and work my way up. You are suggesting to start Deca on week 1 right?
(That’s where there is some confusion.)
“Then for shits and giggles throw in an oral for 8 weeks”
Sarcasm or no?

Onto the oral, no sarcasm lol at the end of the cycle when things are tapering down and getting a bit boring I like to spice things up with a little oral magic. That and anything less than 8 weeks is a waste of steroids. You don't need to do anything crazy, 20mg of legit dbol will be fun times. But if you don't feel like doing any orals, then leave it out. A 20 week test/deca cycle will be just fine without it
If you thoroughly read my posts, I said there’s been a debate about which method is better.
