First Cycle Help - Tips, Concerns appreciated

[researchguy3]

Hello Dylan,

I have decided to do my FIRST cycle. Any advice, tips, or concerns would be much appreciated. I have well thought out my first cycle and did lots of research / talking with friends who use.

Stats:

Age: 25
- Height: 5'10"
- Weight: 210
- Current Bodyfat: 12-14% (Lowest I have gotten to is 7% so I know how to diet)
- Already have a great muscular base (alot of people think I am already running stuff)
- I have already gotten all my required bloodwork pre-cycle (Total Test, Free Test, Estradiol, Lipids, Liver, LH, FSH, etc)

Lifting History:

- Training for 6 Years (Diet and programming has always been on point since I have started)
- Max Bench: 365lb
- Max Squat: 530lb
- Max Deadlift: 605lb
- Progress is becoming more minimal each year (LBM gains that is, strength just doesnt stop for me, more focus on size however)

Goal:

- I know steroids dont directly help with fat loss but plan on using my first cycle for a cut.
- My goal for on cut would be to maintain lbm and HOPEFULLY gain alittle bit of LBM while losing bodyfat
- Using HCG during cycle to help prevent shutdown and a smoother PCT to get natural Test back asap

Planned Cycle:

- Week 1-10: Test E 400-500mg (leaning more towards 400mg for first cycle)
- Week 1-6: Tbol 50mg (Although this may not be recomendded, I decided to do a kick starter oral)
- Week 2-12: HCG 500iu (250iu x2 a week, also doing the last two weeks as ester clears before PCT)
- Week 1-12: Aromasin 12.5mg EOD

PCT:

- Week 13-17: Aromasin 12.5mg EOD (ED if needed monitoring estrogen sides)
- Weeks 13-17: Clomid 50/50/25/25/12.5
- Weeks 13-17: Nolvadex 40/20/20/20/10

Additional Supplementation for Liver Support:

- Tudca
- NAC
- Milk Thistle

Questions and Concerns:

- How likely is it for me to gain LBM while losing bodyfat? 300-500 calorie deficit (Expecting maybe a few lbs of actual muscle gain)
- Many people think it would be a waste to cut on first cycle. I do have good size already but would like to be a bit bigger. Thoughts?
- Thoughts on HCG during cycle?
- Can I expect to get back to baseline testosterone once PCT is done? (My total is 956 ng/dL and free 21.8 pg/ mL). Just worried a few months after PCT my total and free may be like 60-80% pre-cycle.
- When doing PCT, is it possible for me to lose some of my "natty gains". Meaning I could possibly be smaller than pre cycle.

Again, thank you for taking the time to look over this.

your first cycle should be test only, period... i'll give you a full layout on exactly how to do everything...

1-12 test e 350 mg week
1-14 aromasin 12.5 mg eod
11-14 dga post ct https://www.dganutrition.com/product/post-ct/

pct 15-20

when you are in pct, you are going to get a major spike in cortisol... cortisol is termed the "gains killer" for a reason... it will put you into a catabolic state which will not allow you to build muscle and at the same time will eat it away, on top of the fact you will also get unwanted fat gain... so you will lose muscle and gain fat that you had just busted your ass an entire cycle for... GW and MK prevent the rise in cortisol... not only that but they keep you performing at a level you were while on cycle being the ultimate performance enhancers they are... on top of the fact that mk2866 is the ultimate for healing and recovery, which is imperative in pct as well as keeping strength up to a very high level... gw will also treat cholesterol and blood pressure, which are definitely things that need addressed in pct as well…Organ ST plays a pivotal role in a post-cycle therapy (PCT). There’s a strong misconception that the role of a PCT is simply to restart the natural testosterone production that was shut down from the steroid cycle. While this is true, there are a lot of the other issues that the body has to deal with during a PCT: hormone fluctuations, high liver enzymes, increased blood pressure, pressure on the kidneys and endocrine system, high stress and cortisol levels, the list goes on...Organ ST helps address all of these problems and helps you recover in a timely manner. The quicker you recover, the less likelihood of any long-term problems occurring, and the more likely that all gains you make during your cycle are retained.
