Help with SARMS cycle and PCT

[ludovicusx]

I am new to the world of SARMs. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Stats:
45 years old
205 pounds
5’ 11”
20 % Body fat

GOAL
My short term goal is a recomp. Add as much clean muscle as I can while dropping as much body fat as I can. Prepare for my 1st anabolic cycle.

MAIN CONCERN
I believe my metabolism has suddenly slowed down. I have always been in great shape and have maintained a body fat % of around 15% and a weight of 200 – 205 (last 10 -15 years). I have not really changed anything significant but my performance in the gym and on the basketball court has fallen off and I have a layer of fat around my mid-section. I can see my six-pack slowly fading away. Don’t have gut and don’t want one but my mid-section is different.

DIET & EXERCISE
My diet is about 90% healthy. I go hard as I can in the gym. Weights and bodyweight. Still in good shape. I have been fighting through a few nagging injuries.

PREPARING FOR A CHANGE
After watching Dylan’s videos and follow some of the threads on the forum I realize I am not ready for anabolics. So I have been looking at a SARMS cycle. I would like to eventually try a couple of anabolic cycles but I understand it would be defeating the purpose if my body fat percentage is not low enough.

READY TO GET IT IN
Here is what I was thinking. I saw something similar on the forum but added GW and Mk-2866. Hoping to add Muscle and minus body fat. Will this work? Should I remove Mk-2866 from the PCT?

SARMS Cycle
1-12 rad140 20 mg day dosed once a day in the a.m.
1-12 lgd-4033 10 mg day dosed once a day in the a.m.
1-12 S4 50 mg day... split doses... 25 mg in the a.m. and 25 mg 4-6 hours later a.m.
1-12 GW-501516 20 mg day
1-12 Mk-2866 25 mg day dosed once a day in the a.m.
9-12 d aspartic acid

Mini PCT 13-16
LiquiClo 50/25/25/25
GW-501516 20 mg day
Mk-2866 25 mg day dosed once a day in the a.m.

If I just wanted to cut, what changes should I make to this cycle?

My Ultimate Goal is 200 – 205 @ 8 -9 % body fat. Last time I cut with only diet and exercise I lost to much weight. I was 182.5 pounds at 8% body fat. I was ripped but too small.

BIG THANKS to all that reply!

hey brother, i can definitely help you... let me address your main concerns though first... every symptom you are giving from your performance to all of a sudden gaining fat etc. indicates you may have low testosterone and/or a cortisol issue... have you had any bloodwork done??? when you have low testosterone it makes it so you cannot really lose weight and you will easily gain fat so i would STRONGLY suggest you getting bloodwork done... its not uncommon for someone your age to have this issue... here is a link to get the test you need... http://www.privatemdlabs.com/lp/Female_Hormone_Testing.php

you have a good cycle picked... that is the mega super stack.. i would consider adding sr9009 to it to really make it an ultra fat burning stack... better yet, i have a plan for you... here are the links to purchase everything you need followed by the layout...

Thanks Dylan! Really appreciated you advice. I will go for it.

One last question for now. The testing link you provided states Female hormone testing. Is that the correct link and test?

yes bro, it is supposed to be the female hormonal panel when you order there... i know it seems strange but trust me, thats the test you want.. it covers everything you need to be tested for...

 

[ludovicusx]

Sorry hit reply to quickly. I was on weekly (100mg I think) Test injection about a year ago but stopped after my levels normalized. My insurance is jacked so I was waiting until the new year to get a physical and bloodwork. I was taking a test booster to see if it would make a difference but they have not.

I will take your advice and I am excited to see where it takes me.

yeah bro, very very wishful thinking on your part about the test booster... your issues are more than likely low test.. you are shutdown for sure if you were on test and just stopped with no pct... get your bloodwork asap and see where you are at man because it could be dangerously low

That could be the major reason why you are experiencing your issues for sure. Everything points to the fact that your levels are below normal range, so the bloodwork is going to be necessary to see where you are at and how to proceed from here.

[ludovicusx]

Curious to see those bloods bro

[ludovicusx]

Bloods attached

Bloods just came in.

 

[ludovicusx]

Thanks Rick.

 

[ludovicusx]

Dylan

Bloods are in. Thanks in advance.

 

[ludovicusx]

Apologies for the extra messages.

I am starting to figure out how to use the forum, so it will get better and more efficient.

I am forgot to add if it makes any difference:

My BF % is not as bad as I thought but still no where near what I want it to be. Using digital calipers is 18%

BTW I stopped taking those Test booster 1 week before my labs.

 

[DylanGemelli]

your test is pretty low brother... your other numbers are all in range.. however you may be having trouble losing weight due to the test levels being so low... once this gets correct and especially with the addition of sarms, you are going to see huge differences.. .

Thanks Dylan.

Do you have any suggestions on how I can up my test levels while I run the SARMS stack you suggested? Your insight is greatly appreciated.

I would like to get the most out of that stack as possible.

you can run test boosters OR you could try to run a pct before your sarms stack... a test booster is not going to do anything drastic for you.. your best bet is to run a pct first then start your cycle... here is a link for the pct stack..

https://www.sarmsx.com/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=133&search=platinum

clomid 50/50/25/25
nolva 40/20/20/20
aromasin 12.5 mg eod
mk-2866 25 mg day
gw-501516 20 mg day

I'll let you know. I am not 100 about my BF% so my plan is to get a hydrostatic body composition test next Monday. I know I am hard on myself but I really need to see how far I am away from 13%.

Pending results:
If too far away from 13% - I may choose the Full PCT option you recommended.
If close to 13% - I will do the test booster along with the SARMS stack

 

[DylanGemelli]

your body fat has nothing to do with the need for pct... its about your levels... you do what you want bro but if it were me or my client, they would be running a pct first, no questions asked... your call brother...
