First Cycle

[porter20]

Going to be starting first cycle next month. From what I have found test-e at about 250 a week for 10 weeks should get me good gains. I don't have any anti estrogen or pct lined up....do I need to for something as basic as what I'm doing? Was planning another cycle after Christmas and adding winny...figured precautions I'm taking for first cycle would apply then as well right?

Stats
Early 30s....5'10...210lbs...12-15% bf....
Been lifting solid for last 20 months, took a break for about 2 yrs but before that since I was in junior high. My diet is pretty good, can always be better. I really just want to add some good solid mass.

You will certainly need a PCT and AI if you are going to run a cycle. There is a lot of really good information on this board, do some research and use it to your advantage. Also, 250mg seems kind of low, might want to bump that up a bit. .

- bump the Test dose to 500mg a week.

- Run Aromasin or Adex on cycle.

- You will need PCT.

1-12 Test E - 500mg/week
1-14 Aromasin - 12.5mg/eod
10-14 HCG - 1000iu/week

15-18 Clomid - 50/50/25/25
15-18 Aromasin - 12.5mg/eod

Run 500mg per week Test E for 12 weeks. 250 won't do much for gains. Run aromasin on cycle at 12.5mg EOD

Follow up with proper PCT:

Clomid 50/50/25/25 (www.ag-guys.com)
Aromasin 12.5mg EOD (www.ag-guys.com)
Test Stack 3 caps per day (PM me or see thread in my signature for info/discounts)
Ostarine 25mg ED (www.sarms1.com)

Is this increase due to current weight. I just don't want to do too much my first run.

No, it is because 250mg a week of Test is barely above what your body makes. Many people use 200mg of Test a week for TRT. So if you are going to run a cycle, run enough gear to make it worth it. 500mg a week is a good starting point.

Bump test to 500. And may b throw in a oral for 4 weeks.

500mg a week bro is what you want.

Don't do an oral now. It is your first cycle and you don't yet know how your body will react to anything you put into it. If you now take an oral and you inject the Test and you have a bad reaction, how will you know what caused the bad reaction? Take only Test at 400 - 500mg/wk for 12 weeks, run your Aromasin at 12.5mg EOD while on cycle (not a MUST, but STRONGLY advisable) and follow the clomid, aromasin and hcg pct protocol as laid out above. I prefer guys running their first cycles at 400mg/wk, because it's a first cycle and if you run your starting cycle at 500mg, where are you going after that ... 600mg, which is already quite high a dosage to be at?

My advice, without disrespecting any of the other guys on here, is to start at 400mg/wk x 12 weeks. Next cycle, 400mg/wk wks 1-12 adding DBol wks 1-4. Then, after that, 3rd cycle, go up to 500mg/wk wks 1-12 with DBol kickstart wks 1-4.

After this cycle you'll know how your body handles Test, then you can add an oral for the next cycle.

I'm a "less is more" kinda guy but 250 mg's will do more harm than good in the long run.

I also think you could stand to be training longer than 20 months before any anabolics.
