My first steroid cycle. Advice would be greatly appreciated.

[quesawea]

Hello everyone, long time lurker in this forums, finally decided to give it a go and see the results for myself. Did a lot of research and just have some stuff I would like you veteran bros to help out a beginner like me. so thanks so much for the advice in advance.

So for my first cycle i'm thinking of running a very simple TEST-CYP only cycle.
weeks 1-10 Test Cyp at 400mgs weekly
weeks 11-12 take nothing period(waiting for hormones to leave the system)
weeks 13-15 Clomid or Novaldex.(I can get both, please tell me which one is better. Note: less pill I need to take, the better for me.)

How is that looking? do you have advice anything else. please anything that you might think its useful just tell me, trust me I want to know.

Here is where I have my doubts. If you see weeks 1-10 I did not include a AI(aromatase inhibitor). Is this wrong? should I include them in? at which doses? whats the best AI? Arimidex? Could you tell me other options for AI in case I can't get any arimidex( don't worry, I will 100% get all I need before I start my first cycle, I know this is extremely important). Should I take AI ONLY when symptoms arrive or just take them as a preventive measure.what dosages? This is very important. I would really like this answered.

Is a 8-10 week cycle of TEST long enough? I really cant do more than that for traveling reasons.

While I know the optimal weekly weight gain for natural bodybuilders in a bulk(300 grams per week). Is this different for enhanced bodybuilders in my case only using TEST? Should I still aim for 300 grams(0.6 pounds) a week weight gain or I can go much higher than that. Keep in mind that I calculate macros to the last digit and I don't ever miss my macros so I can optimize my weight gain per week fairly easy. it's just about whats optimal in my case.

Also forgot to ask for the correct dosing on Clomid and/or Nolva. Clomid 50mg everyday? Nolva 20mg everyday?
Also Arimidex dosing.

I think thats all for now, I cant think of anything else. please feel free to add anything you feel is important. Like I said, i'm a complete beginner in regards to AS.

Some may want my stats so 6ft, 180lbs, 12% bodyfat(estimate). 1.5 years training experience.

Thank you so much for reading. If you could just use some of your time to help me out a little bit I would be so grateful.
Have a nice day everyone.

Hi there,

First off well done for someone actually doing their research!! I'm impressed with this cycle

I see no problem with it at all, curious as to why you chose Test C over Test E? No problem with that just curious

PCT wise as your just taking pure test and on a dose that's not too high I would run clomid and just have nolva or arimidex on hand just incase you begin to get any signs of gyno, it's better to spend a few extra to have it there just incase.

With just test C you shouldn't need an AI as I said above just have one on hand incase, remember this Nolvadex will block oestrogen , Arimidex with kill it so that should answer it, if you begin to get sore/itchy nips start munching on them

8-10 weeks for a first cycle is perfect! You should get some great results and foundations for any future cycles.

Have you decided what spots to inject?

Have you thought about boosting your cycle with DBol possibly? I just after my first cycle as well at 29yrs old and after a lot of reading, I decided to jump start my cycle with 30mg of DBol daily.

How was your first cycle ? I am very interested in your progress . I'm thinking of doing the same cycle for the first time.
