my first sust cycle

[craigyboy1974]

hi all, I'm 3 weeks into my first test sust cycle pinning 500mg mon & thur. I plan to cycle for 10 weeks. I had arimdex on hand and have just began to run it at .25mg eod as i have begun to look a little red faced at times and think that might be a precursor to bloat and water retention.
i have clomid for pct which i will run 21 days after the last sust jab at 300mg day one followed by 10 days at 100mg and 10 days at 50mg.
my question is should i run some hcg in there at some point inbetween the last sust injection and the clomid? as i know the clomid gets the natural test going again but I've read that the hcg can help with testicular atrophy (if indeed i have any) if so at what point, duration dosage etc?
any thoughts,experiences or help would be appreciated.

well its week 4 and other than a very high libido and an increase in confidence (talking to every attractive girl that makes eye contact) I'm not seeing any increase in mass or strength yet (still weighing in at 194). I am pushing myself to lift heavier, and i have increased the intensity of cardio (due to a probably unfounded paranoia that it will help keep down any bloating that maybe on route) which would usually result in a few pounds loss, so maybe that has offset some slight gains. I have read many threads where guys talk about feeling a kick around 4-5 weeks so maybe i'll have something to report in a weeks time. i have also noticed some occasional but very definite nipple sensitivity, so ive increased the adex to .5 eod as recommended by others experiencing similar. some advise on the hcg, dosage, necessity for cycle length, any experiences would be appreciated
