    Oh it's on
    first cycle
    started lasted 10 days ago sustanon 250mg 2x week and eq 250mg 2x week. I front loaded in the first week.
    Feeling awesome strength and physique are going in the right way.
    Plan to be on 12 weeks. Goals are to increase cardio while still gaining Lbm. I race triathlon. And I end up putting in tons of time running biking and swimming. Anyone have any tips for gaining while race training
    Thanks all.

    Your goals contradict themselves. Do you lift? Wouldnt EPO be a better choice?

    what's your definition of front loading? I usually front load a vial or 2 of prop for 2-3 weeks while I wait for my longer esters to kick in....Run the EQ longer than 12 weeks,....any AI?

    Hate to break it to you but you're not feeling anything but placebo yet. Especially from eq.

    I figured it was a little soon but I don't really care. Any simple ways to tell if I am on too much or too little adex? Without blood work

    Imo you are going to have to extend out the eq to at least 14-16 for real benefit. Your AI dosing looks good.

    Is it more difficult to recover from a 16 week than 12.? Or other consequences to staying on an extra 4 weeks.?

    That is really a tough question to answer brother as to everyone's body make up is different. I could recover just as easy from a 20, 16, or 12 AI cycle as another may not. This one of those things that you have to play with and unfortunately your body is the test subject. However I will add that as long as you monitor you monitor your body through bp and blood work checks, use your AI you most likely recover just fine. I would even recommend using HCG during cycle to help with testies atrophy. 500iu twice weekly weekly imo would be fine and as you hit the later part in your cycle pay attention to the size of them and if they are not at a comfortable size throw another 500iu into the mix.

    What is your protocol?

    Front loading with Sustanon doesn't really make sense unless you were attempting to utilize the faster esters of test in your blend...AI dosing protocols are the hardest thing to gauge IMO but they are necessary..I usually don't take anything until I feel nipple sensitivity or extreme bloat..If that occurs, I'll take one 25mg dose of Aromasin maybe only once a week...You don't want to completely wipe out your estrogen as it will hinder your gains and make you feel like shit...Also, I disagree with whoever said that you feeling the cycle already is placebo...After one shot of prop, 2 hours later I notice increased strength and better nitrogen retention..it is not placebo...

    500mg of sust will put anyone well above the range as far as e2 is concerned...waiting to "feel" any e2 sides means your way past due for an AI..25mg of aromasin ew isnt going to cut it..get some bw as you will know were your at..

    I'm aware that the ONLY way to accurately gauge your e2 levels is with bloodwork, but I've NEVER run into any trouble on/after cycle judging primarily through self-observation...Everyone is different and just like exercise you need to find out through trial and error what works for you...Just think about all of the retarded cycle advice you hear on boards from bros and regular gym rats...I'm no expert, but I've run plenty of cycles with moderate dosages and have never had problems on cycle or during my pct and have always recovered fine...My pct is just clomid therapy..I usually get bloodwork a few weeks after pct...

    Even after injecting a longer ester of test, I feel and notice the effects much faster than most people...Maybe I'm more self-aware or my androgen receptors are more sensitive? Regardless, I think people get WAAAAYYYY to caught up in AI and pct therapy...I can understand the addition of an aggressive pct utilizing hcg and other ancillaries BUT alot of these protocols cause further problems down the road and host more side effects than the cycle itself...

    I think if you got some on cycle bw you may rethink it.....maybe if your e2 is at a more optimum level you could respond even better...

    Sorry to break this to you, but you actually fall into the category of retarded cycle advice.

    That's an opinion relating to my supposed "retarded cycle advice" ...I personally think that all of your HCG rants and protocol thread are "retarded cycle advice"...

    My hcg protocols are based of real life studies and the basic science of how the human body works. I'd love to hear your explanation on how it's retarded.

    which one the 250iu 2x per week or the 500iu 2x per week?
    just messing with you.

    i dont like the idea of staying on hcg all the time. i also dont like the idea of only using an ai when i feel symptoms of high estro but plenty of people do both.

    Did a 33km bike burning1250 calories. A 30 minute bike ride. And just crushed an awesome back workout. To make up my cals I ate the biggest manwhich ever. Take an Italian loaf cut the top off and pull out the bread. Grill 3 steaks and 1lb bacon and layer steak cheese bacon cheese steak cheese bacon cheese. Then compress with a board and 100 lbs weight. Freekin delicious.!
