My first ever cycle

[Endonut]

Hello everyone,

I'm a newbie and this is my first post here.
I'm getting ready to start my first ever cycle and this is what it looks like:

Test C - 400mg/wk for 12 weeks. Is this enough?
Arimidex .5mg every 3 days for 12 weeks.
HCG 400mg/ui week 8 through 12.

What am I missing? Should I throw SARMs in the mix?

My stats:

55 year old male, 5'6", 140lbs, 13% BF. Last blood test with current TRT: total test: 1200, free test: 350, estrogen: 40. RBC/platelets: all normal. I've been consistently working out 2-3 hrs/day, 5-6 days/week for 5 years. I've been diagnosed with low T 6mos ago. I'm on TRT 1/2cc every 3 days and Arimidex .5mg every 3 days. My diet is good (6 meals/day) but could use some improvements. Sleep (4-6 hrs/day) could use some improvement too. My goal: 160lbs. No competition in mind.

Any opinions would be very helpful before I start.

Thank you in advance,

Erick

test C dose/duration looks good, make sure split that twice a week injections. If possible sub arimidex with aromasin. Not sure what the HCG is for if your on TRT, do you plan to come off soon ?

Dump HCG, get aromasin, add GW and S-4. Thats my next run.

Welcome Bud ! Great first post BTW !

Keep the hcg, and sub for aromisin. At your age, keeping the boys moving has its benefits.

I would also look into mk677.

Should I stay on TRT while I'm on my first cycle?

Hi brother....I've been on TRT for over 15 yrs
You have only been on TRT for 6 months... you are at 1200ng/dL ... which is top of TRT range
My recommendation for you is to continue your TRT for another 6 months
Then you can do a cycle of 350mg Test per week for 12 wks....that's total test...you just add to your TRT dose to bring it up to 350mg....looks like you will need to increase your AI dose while on cycle
Good luck my friend

He's already a bit high on estrogen....HCG will raise it even higher
No need to use HCG while on TRT....cosmetic only...it's only effect will keep the balls from shrinking slightly

Bump this, OP if you JUST started TRT let the TRT do it's thing for a while BEFORE starting a cycle.

Also, NO ONE should be training for 2-3 hours a day

Agreed on both posts. If you're gonna take any mans advice that's posted thus far buen is who you need to be listening to for sound advice. When I saw your 1200 I immediately thought "Why cycle with a 1200?".

Exactly.... I made great gains for 10 yrs on only my TRT with test levels 900-1000ng/dL

The reality is....if your not making gains at 1200ng then your diet and training need adjustment

 

[Endonut]

Thank you all for your opinions. I'll think on it and let you know which way I chose.

By the way.. I think SARMS would be a great addition to your TRT. Definitely MK-677 would help with sleep.

Hey brother, I agree with the others on stating the course with your TRT for now. Adding in some sarms are perfectly fine, and they go perfctly with TRT. For the goals you have, and your issues with sleep I think this would be a great sarms cycle to add to your pct.

Make sure you get everything you need from www.sarmsx.com to get the highest quality of sarms available. Here is the layout

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
1-12 GW-510516 (CARDARINE) 20 mg day… dosed all at once 30 minutes before workout…
1-12 MK-677 25mg per day dosed in the am

Once this 12 week cycle is over, continue to run the MK-677 throughout your TRT, as it is a GH secretogue and is best to run long term. A year on it is ideal.
