Intro + question

Hey guys,
I have been on the forum just cruising for more than a year. Finally decided I would stop creeping and introduce myself. Oh yea and also because I started my first AAS cycle ever 2 weeks ago (currently starting week 3). I"m a 25 years old student writing a thesis in experimental medicine. I'm working with intramuscle lipid accumulation in response to certain peptide, ghrelin more specially for now. I'm 56 foot 182 pounds in pretty low body fat. I also work as a personal trainer in a gym. Forgot to mention I did a major in Kinesiology (for what it's worth...). Played football at college and in pretty athletic, that's why I am not expecting so much with my first cycle as I think I already have reached my full potential.
here is more information about my cycle.
Test e : 250 mg/week. pin on sunday
Npp: 250 mg/week. pin on tuesday and friday
LR3 IGF-1: every day sub q post workout 40mcg. (note that I did not pay for that, someone owed me money and that's the only way he could pay).
AI on hand and tamoxifen and clomid are ready for pct.
I plan on running for 8 weeks.
So far so good, I gained probably 4 pounds of muscle and lost 4 of fat. strength gains are ok but not sure if cause of the AAS or just me putting way more work in my trainings. no side at all for now.
the only thing is: I was pinning only in the gluts (left and right) and I developed a mild infection on the left glut. It's red swollen and hot when touched (surface is about 3 inches by 3 inches) but I have no fever or anything and it's been 3 days since it started (pinned on friday). Should I worry about it?? antibio??
Now on my right glut. It's not red but it is really sore and kind of swollen, like if I had a small ball stock between my muscle and my skin. not too painful but annoying. Is it infection too? I assumed this is from not rotating pin site correctly. yesterday I pinned in the right quad for the first time and everything is good this morning. I wIll of course not be pinning in gluts anymore probably till the really end of the cycle. If anyone has some tips for me it would be great.

I have lots of experience researching in the literature and have access to any journals. I have good training in nutrition and resistance training too and will do my best to share my knowledge.

Thank you all,

F
 
Can't answer that question for you but a big welcome to AM brother. Looking forward to information put forth by you
 
While i cant answer your question id like to give a few cycle suggestions.

Long test esters need longer cycles 12-16 weeks. It takes about 4 weeks to kick in. I never used npp so i wont comment on that. Shoot test 2x a week, it keeps hormone levels more stable. Id also up the test dose. 250 is a cruise dose. Finally if your really at or close to your potential then y wouldn't you expect a lot??? Steroids dont bring you to your limits, they bring you past them.if you eat and train right you should pack on 20 lbs in 12 weeks at the right dosages
 
Okay what I will try is doing 200 twice a week. What I was talking about with potential was more about strength, I am already lifting big numbers on main lifts, I don't think my structures (joints, ligaments...) would appreciate lifting more than 350 pounds on the bench press and squating more than 450. thanks for the info. I am not too experienced and this is a whole new world for me.
Another funny thing, I am a bit worried about libido, sex is a hugeeee part of my life, should I expect a drop in libido?
 
What length of needles are you using? Sounds like you may have injected in the sub-q layer. When I have done this, I get the same reaction. If you didn't get a bad reaction in the quad, I would rule out any contamination in your gear. Perhaps a not-so-sterile injection could have caused a little infection. My worst injection ever whether it was an infection or major irritation or poor injection location, lasted about a week before the swelling and pain started to subside. So I wouldn't raise the alarms completely after 3 days, but keep a close eye on it's progress in the next day or two. Some massaging and heat might help it at least feel better.

For glute, because it has a good layer of fat, even up on the side, I make sure you feel that pop of the needle entering the muscle. And I keep it buried. On the side I inject I kind of stand with my hip pushed out so the muscle is forced closer to the skin.
 
21 g 1 inch needle. Year for my right glut I also think it might be sub-q. basically I wasted a shot? I blooded a little bit more on my last left glut pin. Might be the cause. Will def look at the progress. thanks for the input

Try a 25 ga 1 inch needle. Use the ventro glute as a site. Warm up water in a cup in microwave. Put vial in it to warm a bit. Clean inj site then inject. Look up ventroglute injection on youtube.
 
Hey guys, so the injection problem resolved by itself. Now the only issue is in the bed. Am i not supossed to be more active down the belt. Takes everything to get it up. I ve never had issue with that. Do you have any tips for that?
Thanks

Tadalafil will put the lead back in your pencil

But you think its normal that test E does it ? Im on week 4. Everything is fine but this

We all react different to exogenous hormones. Sometimes libido goes up, sometimes it gets tanked. This is a common problem and a lot of guys use tadalafil on cycle and in pct to take care of this
 
It's probably the NPP. Deca D1ck.

You say you have an AI on hand. Are you using it? Are you taking anything for prolactin from the NPP, Prami or Caber?
 
I do have an AI on hand. Tamoxifen. I take 20 mg a day. I knew about decadick. Thats why i dropped it after week 2. Should it be out of my system by now?
