First Tren Cycle

I am 36 and have been lifting for about 10 years. I have ran two cycles in the past. The first one was a Test E 500mg/wk only cycle and then I did a Test E and Deca cycle with dbol for the first 3 weeks about a year later. It's now been about 4 years and am looking to gear up again. Since I have been out of the game for a bit I am looking for advice for my first tren run.



First, here are my stats:

5'9"

200 lbs.

15% bf



This is my proposed cycle:

Week 1-10: Test E 250mg/wk

Week 2-10: Tren A 75mg ED

Caber .5mg EW

Adex 1mg E3D



pct:

Clomid: 100/75/50/25



I appreciate any advice. I am looking at Gen-Shi labs.

First Tren Cycle

Some clarification on first cycle/pct

Hey guys,



I've been browsing these forums for quite some time now. Finally think I'm ready to begin my first cycle after seriously weighing my reasons. Some background: I've been working out since I was 16 - very consistent throughout high school, not so much thru college until my final year. But this past year I've made serious lifestyle changes. My diet is in check, I eat very clean (organic whole foods), and spare no expense for quality here. Every morning I detox and fast, begin feeding around 3-4pm is best for me, minus my pre workout and whey protein which is about an hr pwo. My training has dramatically changed as well. I used to do more of a bodybuilding style, but have really simplified things. Basically goes chest - legs - back - delts/arms -legs again. Higher reps, short intense sessions.



My problem and main reason (I have many reasons but this is a lengthy post and I don't want to write a novel) is I want to be able to do more. I like to workout every day, at least to some degree, and not only do I get burned out, but I feel like my body simply can't digest and assimilate the extra food in order to grow. Especially since I prefer to fast during the day so Im consuming all my calories from ~4-10pm. If I don't, and i eat more frequently, not only do I feel tired, sluggish and cognitively impaired, but I lose my appetite completely.



My stats: I'm 24 years old. about 6'1 180 pounds, very lean, can't provide an accurate bf% as I've never been tested (I've always been quite "light," a lot lighter than I think I look, idk small joints or something).



I got some testoviron (test e) I'm planning on running a 12 week (250mg, 2x/week) cycle. I honestly want to keep everything as basic and only as necessary as possible, meaning I don't want to be taking many supplemental substances. I don't want to run hcg on cycle, nor do I want to run arimidex, altho I did get my hands on both just in case. I also have clomid and nolva. I want to run both clomid and nolva pct, no AI, no hCG preceding my pct etc. My questions are the dosing and routine for my pct. Ive read a lot of different approaches and want to know what is best for my beginner/moderate cycle? Originally I just wanted to do one and try the other next time around, but now I think I want to use them both. I read about people alternating clomid/nolva week to week, or even day to day? Any suggestions on the most non-bs simple but effective way to go? I feel like with stickies and guides I've read it seems quite generalized, so I'm also uncertain about dosage. For example, there seems to be a range in dosage from what I've gathered (e.g., for clomid, some say begin pct at 150mg, others 100mg, etc).



Any and all advice is greatly appreciated :)



sorry for the long ass post I always think some background info is good hehe ;)

Acne

I have been using steroids for a year now and developed bad acne on shoulders and back, what can i do about this problem

Acne

I need help coming off a long first cycle.

I'm 33 6'2 275lbs



I have never used steroids prior then I started at a mens clinic shooting test Cypionate 200ml a week followed by 1mg of arimidex the day after the shot.



After 6 months someone at the gym suggested I was getting ripped and convinced me to try some anabolics. For about 3 months I shot test 400 and tren every 3 days for about 3 months (one CC of each). Then I switched to sustain 250 taking 1 CC every 3 days for about 2 months.



I went on vacation and decided that it was time to give my body a break so I decided to stop cold turkey. My plan was to wait 3 weeks and start on of those over the counter post cycle therapies herbal test booster and herbal liver care and herbal estrogen blockers.



So after about a month of no test I started waking up in the middle of the night drenched in sweat, couldn't sleep, foggy brain function, feeling disconnected,mind racing, heavy anxiety, panic attacks.



Everyone was giving me different advice. It got so bad that I decided to shoot back up. I took tren 250ml on the first day, then I took test 400 (200ml) the next day, the 2 days later I took an other 200mls of test 400. I have mellowed out some my doctor suggests weening me off slowly and gave me 200ml's of test cypionate all in the same week. An hour after the shot I had a massive panic attack. Then have just been really lethargic the last 3 days my my mind seems sharper.



Should I ween off slowly with the cypionate and just reduce the dosages or stop cold turkey. I was out of my mind before I shot back up and I can't continue going on like that.



I need help. I don't know what to do anymore.

Time to get serious- Calculated my TDEE and macros please help!

A little background information- I am 25-soon to be 26, 6'2" 220lbs and I estimate my body fat to be around 18%. I work out 3 days a week and play a sport once a week. I work a pretty active job (mechanic) 5-6 days a week. When I calculated my TDEE I chose the "moderate" activity level. If I was wrong in doing that please correct me. According to the TDEE formula on this site, my TDEE is 2,726 cals. My goal here is to lose some body fat. I would like to try to get down to around 12%. My current diet is as follows:



Meal 1:



1 1/2 cups oats 450cal/15pro/81carb

1 cup egg whites 125cal/25pro/5carb

1 scoop whey 120cal/24pro/3carb



Total: 695 cals / 64g protein / 89g carbs



Meal 2:



60z chicken (weighed cooked) 240cal/54pro/0carb

2 cups rice (measured cooked) 340cal/8pro/76carb



Total: 580 cals / 62g protein / 76g carbs



Meal 3:



6 whole eggs 420cal/36pro/0carbs

1 large baked sweet potato (~300g) 180cal/4pro/41carb



Total: 600 cals / 40g protein / 41g carbs



Meal 4:



2 cups oats 500cal/20pro/108carb

2 cups egg whites 250cals/50pro/10carb

1 scoop whey 120cal/24pro/3carb



Total: 870 cals / 94g protein / 121g carbs



My totals for the day are: 2,745 cals. / 260g protein / 327g carbs.



I have almost completely cut out sugary drinks from my diet. I drink mostly water and crystal light. I will sometimes substitute salmon or tilapia as my source of protein for meals 2 or 3. But they are all very similar in macros. I will have a rice cake or some low fat peanut butter as a small snack if I get hungry. And I allow myself one cheat meal a week. Im not sure if I should go any lower on the calories because my job is pretty physical and involves a lot of walking and moving all day. I have been on this diet for almost 3 weeks now and I would appreciate any input or advice.

how long until my estradiol levels go down?

i was dosing with too high testosterone weekly but cut the dose in half, how long until the estradiol levels go down? i'm still putting in testosterone each week but it's much lower. will this slow the process, putting in more weekly, or will it lower it anyway? i have to wait 6 more weeks until blood work so just wondering about that. i made another topic specifically for estradiol because my other topic was about everything else, but this topic really concerns me. i tried to have sex yesterday and couldn't so i'm getting frustrated.

22 Years Old with Gynecomastia and Low T

Hello guys,



I am having a big problem here and I know that there are some very knowledgeable guys on this forum, maybe you can help me with some input.



I am 22 years old. I should be a ball of energy and youthness. Actually it is the exact opposite. I am tired all the time, low libido, my workouts take a toll on me, etc. Some time ago I clearly remember having absolutely no issues. To top it off, I discovered that my strange chest/nipples shape was actually Gynecomastia. I looked at a picture of me at 19 and I did not have any sort of Gyno so it should be 1 or maximum 2 years old.



I am highly suspecting a hormone imbalance, after all how could I have all these symptoms, especially Gyno, when I never touched AAS before?!



I did a few tests in August 2014, (part of a regular check-up, back then I did not know about my issues) and I got these results:



Type of analysis------------Result--------------Range



Cholesterol----------------117 mg/dl---------140-220

Total Testosterone:-------380 ng/dl---------200-1000

LH:------------------------1.0 mIU/ml--------0.57-12.7

FSH:-----------------------6.1 mIU/ml-------0.95-11.9

Prolactin:------------------10.1 ng/ml---------4.0-12.0



Since then I started to introduce far more fats in my diet, hoping that I would raise my testosterone level. ( even though I did not realise that I have any issues back then, I just wanted a high testosterone level. )



Now, since a month or so, I seemed to realise that there is something wrong with me because I am more tired than ever before. I realised that I have gyno and pretty much imediately went to the doctor.



I did my full blood work and here are the hormonal results:



Type of analysis ------------Result---------------Range

Cholesterol----------------137 mg/dL----------140-220

TSH-----------------------1.093 uIU/mL------0.35-4.94

Free T4--------------------1.01 ng/dl-----------0.7-1.48

Anti TPO-------------------0.35 UI/ml------------< 5.61

FSH------------------------2.37 mUI/mL-------0.95-11.9

LH--------------------------2.98 mIU/ml-------0.57-12.0

Estradiol--------------------44 pg/ml---------------11-44

Prolactin-------------------10.57 ng/ml--------3.46-19.4 - very strange, the former lab normal range was 4.0-12.0

Cortisol-------------------- 9.9 ug/dL------------3.7-19.4

Testosterone----------------724 ng/dl-----------142-921

Free Testosterone----------1.38 ng/dl----------0.43-4.1



( Actually the result was in nmol/L but i translated it in ng/dl so it would be easier to read and interpret)

SHBG----------------------34.15 nmol/L-------14.5-48.4



Strangely, even though I did not increase my Cholesterol that much, I have doubled my Testosterone. I did not expect such a thing, I expected all my results to be awful because that is how i feel.

So, Testosterone doubled, but Estrogen almost off the scale. No wonder I have Gyno and all these problems. Also, a high SHBG, high Prolactin and low free Testosterone. At least, this is how I interpret the results.

If any of you have any idea about my results, what is wrong and what is good, and any suggestions about what should I do, please post them. I will be very appreciative.



Now, my Endocrinologist said that she sees no problems in my results, wonders how can I have doubled my T levels just by eating more fats and only wanted me to try Nolvadex for my Gyno. What about an AI such as Arimidex? To lower that Estrogen?



Thank you very much for your future suggestions and have a nice day!

Looking for a doctor in Oregon, or Las Vegas

Im looking for a doc for my friend in his mid 40's in either Portland Oregon, or Las vegas . He was blown off by his family doctor when inquiring about HRT. Please do not refer me to lowtestosterone.com , $200 a month is way to much when a prescription for a 4 month supply of test can be purchase at a pharmacy with a prescription for under $100. Looking for a good doctor who will take my friend seriously. Thanks

Hi, I'm Jitzer and I'm new to the forum and have no idea what I'm doin...

Hey guys and girls. I'm new to the forum and somewhat new what this forums about and like I said I have no idea what I'm doing. I've always been into sports and lifting weights until I took off some time between 28yrs old and now 35yrs old due to some major personal problems but I'm glad to be back in the gym and this site looks like it's one of the most knowledgeable and reliable sites on the web. So I look forward to learning and trading info and everything else one does on a site such as this. Thanks,

UGL underdosing

So I've researched the hell out of this and it appears that the consensus is that UGL oils and orals are underdosed. Some folks say up to 30% or more from what the label reads.



My question then is do you adjust your dosage up front when using UGL's and then confirm with your mid-cycle bloods? Seems like you could potentially waste a whole cycle if you trust the label and your mid-blood work comes back with bunk test levels.



Thanks guys
