Starting my first cycle

[wes.cain]

Im 20 years old, 5'8 and a bodyweight of 195 with relatively lower bodyfat. For my weight right now I'm pushing high numbers in training but I'm wanting to put on more size for a bodybuilding show within the next year. I was wondering where to really start with dosages and how everything should be measured for correct dosages with injectables and what I would need to stack with test for around a 12 week cycle.

This is just some motherly advice from a lady that has been lifting for decades, both natty and not, and has sons like you. 20 is young. You could likely progress naturally for years before you plateau. Then the gear will be a useful tool. Meantime, do all you can with diet and progressive overload. Also, stacking is unwise to do as a beginner. Start with one at a time and see how it treats you. Otherwise, if you have a bad side, you won't know which substance is causing it. It's hard to be patient but it will pay off. Good luck.

You should get some blood work to see where your test naturally is first. That’s my personal opinion, if I was say 900+ I probably wouldn’t bother yet

I second everything Colette said.

If you've resolutely decided that you are going to take PEDs, grab a couple vials of Testosterone, run ~400mg a week and continue to train hard. No need to complicate things.

Good luck brother

If you are dead set and if you are asking here, you probably are... TEST ONLY. 500mg a week. NOTHING ELSE. Have AI on hand. Adex, or Asin. Have nolva/ralox on hand. You want to know how your body reacts to estrogen. Some don't have to take anything for 500mg of T. Most people do. if your nips start to itch and hurt, your skin gets really greasy, you know your estrogen is high. Don't just start taking AI and run your estrogen into the dirt. That's worse than having high estrogen.

Work out hard, eat food. Get sleep.

Get blood work as mentioned

You want to know your baseline, then get bloods AGAIN 6-8 weeks in to see where your health markers are at.

You can get very far with just test, food and hard work. You are asking for trouble doing anything more on your first cycle. You no idea how your body will react.

I agree with Colette.

But I'd also suggest a month or two of lower dose Anavar only. Before all you "experts" scream at me, I've talked with many LEGIT industry experts who suggest that as a great starting point. Plus, he won't crash his own system like he would running test.
