  1. Blood work template

    Sorry if this is a repost; I did try searching, but perhaps my search terms weren't right. Can anybody share a list of all parameters somebody using AAS should be asking for in blood work? My current blood work has... Total test Free test Estradiol Liver panel Lipid panel Metabolic/kidney...

  2. Hematocrit vs. Blood Pressure

    I'll readily admit it could be my own ignorance, but this doesn't seem to be applicable. They replaced one kind of RBC with another kind of RBC via transfusion. Wouldn't that mitigate the ability to determine whether a higher/lower RBC count impacted blood pressure since the RBC count remained...

  3. Hematocrit vs. Blood Pressure

    Can anybody tell me if high hematocrit levels and high blood pressure are directly linked? Context: My hematocrit levels typically run at the higher end of the acceptable range, but never exceed it. In the past, I have donated blood as frequently as allowed (I believe it's every 56 days) to...

  4. Issues controlling estrogen while on TRT, even at unreal doses!

    I find aromasin works a lot better than amridex. I believe the ONLY reason providers give you the latter is because it is much cheaper. Perhaps the argument could be made that it takes longer to recover from an estrogen crash with a suicidal inhibitor, but that's why you start with a small dose...

  5. Blasting and Cruising

    HCG isn't used for its anabolic properties; it's used to maintain/restart testicular function while on or after taking testosterone. People sometimes run low-dose deca on cruise because of its joint lubricating properties; it has also been shown to increase collagen synthesis, so it can help...

  6. Are you worried about being dependent on TRT during the upcoming trying times?

    Thanks, I actually think it's a great question and have historically kept a backstock for the same reason... but blasts have a way of eating into that. 😬

  7. Blasting and Cruising

    "Blast and cruise" is basically alternating between a full-on "cycle" and TRT, whereas traditionally people would just run a cycle and then do PCT (post-cycle therapy) and get entirely off of anabolics. A blast (or a cycle, for that matter) can consist of high dosages of test or test plus other...

  8. Are you worried about being dependent on TRT during the upcoming trying times?

    Would you consider labs like Dragon, Odin, etc. to be "high grade UGL"? Just trying to understand how to make that discernment. MODS: If this question is not allowed, please delete.

  9. Test / Deca / Primo stack

    That was my problem. I was standing there making a pizza and I felt like I wanted to cry. That was early in my TRT days when I was just on like 140mg test... so I think I'm a big aromatizer.

  10. Test / Deca / Primo stack

    @Uncle_E @gphagan1 were you guys taking AIs before adding primo or mast? I definitely need one even on just cruise doses of TRT.

  11. Test / Deca / Primo stack

    Yeah, I've been doing quads for ~3 years and they told me it was like a one-in-a-million chance to hit a vein. Like you, I aspirate every time and once (only once so far) blood shot back into the syringe. You can definitely see your blood pressure at work when that happens; it was pretty...

  12. Test / Deca / Primo stack

    Wow, this is really great. Up to 5 mL in the quad is good to know; it seems like I may not need to further split up my shots in that case.

  13. Test / Deca / Primo stack

    General question: What is the maximum volume that should be injected intramuscularly? When I start doing the math on putting test/primo/deca in a single barrel at 400 (bi-weekly) / 400 (bi-weekly) / 200 (weekly), the volume is already up to 3mL... which leaves little margin in a 3mL syringe...

  14. Test / Deca / Primo stack

    Hey, this is great info and it looks like my lipids are ok by this metric (HDL 52, triglycerides 91). How does LDL factor into the heart health equation? Is it as much of a factor as the HDL/trig ratio? Is just being in range adequate? Haha, sorry, I realize my thread is deviating all over the...

  15. Test / Deca / Primo stack

    Thanks! I actually have another question: Do I need to pre-emptively reduce my A.I. dosage if using primo or just take a wait-and-see approach? My understanding is that primo may reduce the perception of estrogenic symptoms but doesn't actually reduce the estrogen level in the body...? So, I...

  16. Test / Deca / Primo stack

    Thanks - I agree that the most responsible way to use anabolics is to use the minimum effective dosage. I tolerated 400mg test quite well and made some really great gains, but I don't know whether to attribute that to the test or the anavar or both. I don't think the deca was a big factor at...

  17. Test / Deca / Primo stack

    Can you elaborate a little? What is it about primo that de-prioritizes additional testosterone? A little background: Until recently, I've only ever done TRT. My only "blast" was at 400mg test (+deca and anavar, as I mentioned). When I started reading more and talking to more people, it seemed...

  18. Test / Deca / Primo stack

    Definitely! I will post up after I finish; I'm going to start 1/1, so it'll be a few months.

  19. Test / Deca / Primo stack

    What's the right ratio for these compounds? I've always kept my deca half or less than my test dose and I've never had any impotency issues (and don't want any). I've never used primo, though; what should the dosing be compared to test and deca? As a note, my current plan for my next cycle is...

  20. Aromasin dosage guidance

    Yes, I cruise on my TRT. :) And to be clear, I didn't take exception to any of your comments - I'm always just trying to learn and understand more. It is unfortunate that anabolics are so stigmatized because it makes it difficult to get good information except for places like this. Thanks for...
