Hi. I have been researching my first cycle and would like to get some of your feedback suggestions.
I am 33 years old and have been lifting for 6 years. 3 years ago I dislocated my shoulder whilst shoulder pressing in the gym and tore my labrum muscle pretty bad, which required surgery & put me out of the game for 18 months total. I have enjoyed the journey getting back to full strength but I have seriously plateaud both in size and strength over the last 9 months. I am a hardgainer and even after tweaks in my diet I feel I have maxed out & need a push.
I am 5ft 11ins & weigh 13st. My bf is 16%. My diet at present is (approx) 300g protein, 250g carbs, 100g fats approx 4000 cals.
My goal is NOT for massive bulk but to drop about 5% bf and harden up - more lean definition whilst obviously gaining strength & breaking through my plateau (hand in hand I know).
Oral would be my preference for my first cycle & I want to avoid estrogenic sides (if poss) as I am terrified of the dreaded gyno.. so in terms of results I was looking at winstrol only cycle but I now know that estrogen is possible to develop & that it is extremely toxic on the liver. So I am more swaying towards Tbol or/and Anavar. It looks as if Anavar would better provide the strength/cut I am looking for but would you recommend stacking alongside Tbol for a first cycle? I have also read that Var will likely kill my libido where as Tbol won't? Any guidance for a newbie greatly appreciated.
**please note that I am not entirely adverse to needles however a little apprehensive for my first cycle at least as I dip my toe into the world of AAS.
Thank you in advance
