First ever anabolic cycle

Hey all, this is my first post here and i know almost nothing about steroid in general, after watching a video made by Ifbb Pro Coach Greg Doucette on how to take your first steroid cycle i now really want to do it.

For those who are not familiar with the video he basically says the following as your firat cycle you only need to take 400-600mg of testosterone weekly, his way way to inject 350mg every 5 days which comes up to 490mg a week, for 12 weeks.

Now what I'm really afraid of is the balls shrinking thing, it is dose dependent? How to prevent it?

Also how long should i be off cycle after doing 490mg a week for 12 weeks.

Any help is appreciated.
 
Please take this the right way bro but you need to do way way more research before you start messing with cycles.

for starters you need to consider your age and training history. Are you old enough where the risk of being on trt and/or being unable to have kids is acceptable? Have genuinely reached your natural limits?

then you need to read a lot. AM is a good place to start but you need to research:

- PCT
- Cycle supports such as AI’s
- HCG (that one is for your ball shrinking issue)
- Cycle lengths and esters

I’m assuming that your diet and nutrition is on point and your under 20% body fat. If not then really don’t start looking at steroids.

hope you find this helpful bro
 
^this. What are your stats and history? Easy to get caught up in the desire for gains but it needs to be done with a lot of forethought and preparation. A lot of people want to jump into early imo without realizing they have more natty potential.
 
strong 1st post....

how about telling us something about yourself?
 
I did 500 test for 12 (actually dropped out at week 11) as a first cycle.

If I was to do it all over again, i would do 350mg 1st 6 weeks and 500mg last 6 weeks. In the beginning you will grow anyway and 350 is ample and then when the gains slow down you can bump it up to 500mg.

You will keep growing and a bit less stress on your body.

I will never do a fixed dose cycle again, unless it is sth very short, like 4 weeks.

Also keep in mind that you need to increase your calories as cycle goes on and you acquire muscle tissue.

And about the balls shrinking and pct?
 
You should be concerned about your heart, blood pressure, you know, things important to live. Your balls shrinking on cycle should be the least of your concern.

That being said. No mater what I take, or how much I take, mine don't shrink. No clue why. They stay the same. I've been on 3 cycles and trt in-between for the past 15 months with no hcg. Nothing changes. Some ppl start trt and 6-8 weeks later there balls turn into raisins.
 
Another thing Is how important your diet really will be for results. I've ran cycles with amazing results when my diet was in check. I've also wasted entire cycles by eating like crap and being lazy in the gym. Everyone's going to have some initial gains when the start steroids regardless of what you do, but that will stall out quick and the food and training will be the determining factor at that point.
