What drugs are you currently running and have been running for the last 8 weeks – how are you injecting it.

What do your bloods say – have you had them done?

Its going to take 8 weeks minimum IMO of your hormones to totally balance so I would imagine its going to be another 4-6 weeks before things start cleaning up.

next time I would plan your cycle much better and listen to some one different.

Loads of information on here that will be golden for you ?

I came off of everything for about two weeks, then start taking 1000 iu of hcg a week for 5 weeks along with 100 mg of clomid a day for two weeks then 50 mg of clomid for another two weeks. Acne got worse coach told me I was supposed to be taking arimidex which he totally didn’t and now told me take 50 mgs twice a week for 5 weeks. I’m on week 3 of the arimidex but I’m done with the hcg and clomid [/quote]

50mg of arimidex – that’s a typo yes ?

It sounds like a real shit show this tbh.

I see no reason why you would be taking Adex post pct drugs or even while on them tbh.

You need to drop everything now.

Give the body chance to normalise

Get bloods done to asses [/quote]
It is a real shit show, been getting lots of bad advice, that’s why I’m on here. I’ll drop everything. Should I get bloods done right away or wait a week?

Check the pct thread under health section n Dr deans PCT protocol

You need any were from 8-16 weeks for full recovery and this ideally needs to be checked 2-3 weeks all pct meds being stopped

Where do you get blood work done?[/quote]

I currently use E-val preferably or Medicheck if its just for hormone checks via finger prick [/quote]
Thank you I’ll check them out

Have you been using the Anadrol for all 11 weeks so far? I would see that as more of an issue than the deca.

Yes I have should I drop the anadrol as well?[/quote]

That is not a good idea imo nor needed

Drop both anadrol and deca

Make sure you do a full blood test post cycle to check health markers [/quote]
How long after I end my cycle should I get my blood work done?

Hey pal, if I ever had any negative effects from a compound I would completely cut it from the cycle straight away. If your body doesn’t like the drug it’s not likely you will be achieving anything positive by keep putting it in your body.

This is very helpful thank you

[Ryan]

Ye this cycle is very silly indeed.

Did you get any negative skin reactions from the first cycle you ran?

Imo you don’t need orals , look a running test again at 300/week and then add alongside either masteron or primo at 300 / week

I’m currently in a lean bulk either primo or masteron? Or is one better than they other for the bulk or is it just preference?

No my skin was completely fine first cycle. I broke out at around 6 weeks this cycle

Hi Ryan,

A little more info here buddy, Whats the cycle, compounds, length and escalation? what are the sides? and have you ran bloods?

Along with what I just said this is my second cycle. First cycle was 300 mg test prop, 50 mgs of Anavar, 50 mgs of winstrol. I’m starting to think my current cycle is way to aggressive for a second cycle. I only followed this protocol because it is what my coach told me to do

[Ryan]

Haven’t run bloods yet. I’m 11 weeks in was gonna go 16 weeks. I’m using test cyp, deca, anadrol. 400 mgs of test 600 mgs of deca and 50 mgs of anadrol. I wanted to drop the deca. My back broke out with acne. I already lowered the test and I’m starting to think the amount of compounds I’m on in general is too much for me. And wanted to drop the deca entirely

[Ryan]

There’s many different views on this. The main goal is to keep as healthy as possible (via bloodwork checks) whilst still progressing.

I wouldn’t suggest to start a cycle at your example 500mg test and 600mg deca and run that for 12-15 weeks

Start lower and titrate this in blocks of 4 weeks this way you can stay on cycle longer whilst progressing with your strength curve and food increases. Without stagnating. And keeping blood-work in a better place.

The reason people suggest you need to go higher in dosage next cycle is you are potentially bigger and heavier having gained muscle so you’re total load can increase.

My advise for a cycle design is titrate the dosage of that cycle to a peak load for your bodyweight (body comp and side affects depending) an example would be 15mg (total anabolics) per kg of lean BW.

Example 90kg x 15mg = 1350mg total peak load

You could start your test at 3mg per kg and titrate this up every 4 weeks. To a max of 5mg per kg

You would build your cycle design around either DHT compounds (primo or mast) and NOR-19 compounds (nandrolones/trenbolones) and titrate these up weekly until you have peak load of 1350mg (ish) run this for 4-8 weeks before returning to a maintenance or baseline dosage (cruise) then run bloodwork again.

Always get the most out of the minimal.

Hope this helps

If I already did the 500 test deca 600 for 6 weeks, would it be smart to bring it back down and titrate up or just keep it the same and next cycle try titrations up that dose?

[Ryan]

Thank you guys! This helps a ton

[Ryan]

Thanks for the advice guys, I believe my execution is pretty solid. I know there’s always room for improvement but generally I think my form isn’t the issue. I think I need to give it more time/get stronger. With that being said, im still generally stumped as what to do about my training split. I’m an amateur bodybuilder. Like i said chest is my weakest body part. Currently I’m running a “bro” split. Each week changes in terms of prioritizing a muscle group.

Week 1 – Back and hamstrings twice a week
Week 2 – chest and bis twice a week
Week 3 – quads and calves twice a week
Then repeat

I’m currently enjoying this split, but was wondering what would be best for me to do when needing to switch it up. Would a pull/push/legs split be best?
