Hello!
First time to post on this forum - I have been following it since I joined. I think I already found two suppliers on here, hopefully they are legit. A little about myself, seeking cycle advice for someone over 40 (I turn 43 in March).
About me:
I have been lifting and training since I was a boy. My father was a competitive bodybuilder in the golden era, and instilled a lifelong love of lifting to me. Literally. He never used any gear in his lifetime, though back then little was known about it and it was kinda on the same part as hard drugs. Really in his mind until probably the mid-90's.
I am about 6 feet 1, and I weight approx 205-210. I have always lifted, and until about when I turned 42, my metabolism was shockingly high. When I played football when I was young, I used to eat maybe 3-4x a day straight tuna fish mixed with macaroni. My diet didn't change much until maybe 40. I had to consume all the calories I could to maintain muscle, and really a ton of cardio even if I was eating a ton of calories to build mass - would be counterproductive. I would go into catabolic states if I did too much cardio, negating all of my hard workouts and gains.
I did a few cycles in my 20's (early 20's - last one maybe 2005 or so). I had been all natural before then, and even though my dad was against gear (and I never told him) - my first cycle I always wanted to do at least one to see how good of condition and how much muscle and mass I could build. I was shocked at the result. My first foray into researching gear was one of my close high school friends played in the MLB during the steroid era (and he used in college) - and when I would see him, he and his buddies would openly talk about their cycles, stacks, etc. He kinda introduced me eons ago to suppliers, then I did a ton of research (I am a lawyer and analytical by nature) - and actually helped him plan out his cycles. Before that, he would just guestimate how much deca to use, winstrol was big for him bc he played center field - and he put almost zero thought into it. I am the exact opposite.
I was young and dumb then - and never fully planned and finished my PCT. I also developed a benign mass in my chest, had it removed - and probably not related to gyno or high estrogen (this was years after my first cycle) - but I was worried I didn't use arimidex or some type of anti-aromatization to prevent. I was much younger and dumber then.
Starting in 2018 or so - I started using and researching SARMS. My first SARMS cycle I was shocked by how well they worked. It was "almost" as good as using real gear. It seems people are mixed if they are better or worse than using actual gear.
I still cycle sarms, and so my goal is to blast a few cycles with gear while I still can and physcially able to lift hard, and get in still pretty good shape. And then do a proper PCT - and maybe cruise with SARMS. I haven't been to a low-T clinic, but when I get bloodwork done, even though I haven't used gear in years, and for a few years didn't use sarms (covid, I also had gallbladder problems, etc.) - doctors thought I was lying when I said I wasn't actively using steroids. For my age, or really age, my test levels are still really high. So I don't think I could get a script from a low-T clinic for test cyp.
That being said, again - again, I am 6 feet 1, about 205-210 or so - and still have great muscle tone, size, and strength. I don't have much fat anywhere on my body save my stomach. I don't have any fat on my legs, butt, back, shoulders, traps, or arms. Also - when I was younger, I used to have amazing vascularity - even when bulking. I am not as bothered by this, but it is harder to have as much vascularity, with veins popping out everywhere, regardless of what I use or train. For cutting, I want to reduce my stomach fat (it's not terrible, I just have always had a tight stomach and a tight 6-pack).
Sorry for the long post.
I won't go into my SARMS stack - but wanted to see if the stack below is appropriate. Again, it has been years since my first cycle with gear - and trying to catch up. Back then - I did the same stack. I did test-E, deca, and d-boll tabs. I used to love starting a cycle with dboll - even though it is mostly water weight, it was amazing to start a cycle with. I may have used winstrol for speed and sports, but do not think I did. I was young then, under 30 - metabolism was racism, vascularity was amazing, I just used gear then to build more mass it was hard for me to keep on and maintain.
All that being said, here is the stack I am thinking of (tenative):
- Test Cyp (500 per week)
- Sus (Not deca, afraid of gyno)
- Masteron-E (400mg/week)
- Primbolan-E (400mg/week)
Also thinking of adding:
- oral dboll tabs to start the cycle (any dosage advice would be appreciated)
- Clenbuteral (not tren) - if some thing would be helpful in cutting up, losing a bit of excess stomach fat, and getting my vascularity back or close to what is was when I was younger)
- Anavar (50mg/day) - I believe this is great for strength, but because I am looking to cut, thinking of adding.
I have plenty of PCT on hand, but am worried about gyno, high estrogen, so obvi arimidex.
Again, my goal this time is to lose weight, get vascular, still gain lean muscle, but I am plenty big and strong (and with this gear I still will increase both) - and so am looking for what will help to help me get in the best shape I can at my age.
Later - I want to incorporate HGH after this. I also don't fully understand the difference in the oils and regular injectables. In the past, there were only really injectables and oral tabs. I alway preferred injectables, with the exception of dball.
In summary, in good shape for my age (I think) - need to lose and trim up a bit, mainly around the waistline, I want to do a few more cycles the next few years and blast with the proper gear/cycle (and dosages), do a PCT, and cruise with SARMS. It only will be a matter of time before I can get test cyp from a clinic I am sure - I am worried about a test shutdown, but as I get older, I know to stay in shape, have energy, I have to do something more to maintain my levels at a healthy state.
Thanks for all who read what I know is a long post. I love training, nutrition, researching what to take and when - and have found this forum amazing. Any advice or help would be greatly appreciated. I sometimes tend to go overboard, so don't want my first cycle in many years to be too much on my body.
Thank you all again.
