Best AI to have in case?

[JTJT123]

Starting my 2nd cycle in a few months and trying to figure out what the best AI to have on hand would be. I'm 33, 6ft-207 lbs @ 10 percent BF. First cycle was 350mg Mast Prop and 350 mg Primo Depot per week-I got excellent results-big improvements in strength and a solid 10 lbs that I've managed to keep. Used HMG and a bunch of natty supps-Unleashed, Tonvara Trib, Indonesian Long Jack, Prolensis Bulbine and DAA(aka Diarrhea Bombs which I'll never use again)- Anyway recovery was a breeze.

I've decided for my second cycle I'd like to experiment with some Test so I'll be running 250 mg of Test E and 500 mg per week of Primo Depot split into 2 shots. I'm going to run this for 7 weeks and then I'm going to switch to 700mg of Mast Prop for the final 3 weeks-I know this seems odd but I'm doing this for 2 reasons. First, I'd like to give the long esters time to clear so I don't have to wait 2 weeks to PCT and second I'd like to give the estrogen that has built up from the Test time to dissipate so that I don't go into PCT with high levels of E. The reason being is that I do not want to use AI's unless it is absolutely necessary. I figure I'm running a low enough dose of Test where this should not be a problem but I'd rather be prepared just in case which brings me to my question. Which AI would you keep on hand if you weren't planning on using it regularly? I'm only going to take it if I notice libido problems or if I notice symptoms of gyno. I guess I'd want something that kicks in quickly and keeps the man boobies at bay. Thanks.

I like to keep forma and adex on hand and those are more then enough to keep estrogen at bay for me even with high test doses. Aromasin is a stronger ai that most favor but I've never needed it as the above combo is sufficient. If your gyno prone I'd also keep letro in case shit hits the fan.

Thanks for the reply Joe. How much Adex would you take? Again, bear in mind I'll only be using it if I notice symptoms.

Dude, i would run arimidex the whole cycle, more more test you take the more estrogen is in your body (test turns into estrogen). Arimidex suppresses estrogen levels around 75-80%. I would not wait till you start seeing gyno to then start taking it. That would be dumb. It would not hurt to take it every day during your cycle. Im sorry but someone correct me if i am wrong.

 

[JTJT123]

My understanding is that you do want to have some estrogen in your system for a # of reasons-specifically for growth, lipid profile, and joint health. I'm using a low dose of test to minimize the risk of too high an E count and I don't think it will be a factor but being I've never used Test I just want to have something as back-up in case I happen to react poorly to it. As far as using an AI from the start I think that's a bad idea unless of course you are using test in the neighborhood of 500mg and north per week which I'd never do since there are perfectly good anabolics you can use to complement the test that don't aromatize at all. I'm of the mind it's always better to use less drugs than more.

Honestly I'm not prone to gyno so below 600 mg week I rarely use any adex at all. Once in a while my nipples might get sensitive and I will take 0.25- 0.5 mg. Around 600 mg I will use 0.25 eod and above I usually bump it to 0.5 mg and add in a little forma if necessary.

I hope I'm in the same boat as you. I'm relatively lean which seems to help so that fact combined with the low dose makes me confident that I will be. I'll keep some adex around just in case and go with .25 eod if I notice symptoms. Thanks again.

I HIGHLY recommend having aromasin on hand... arimidex is not nearly as good as aromasin... it merely suppresses estrogen where aromasin is a suicide inhibitor and is much stronger... 12.5 mg eod... I have seen a lot of guys use arimidex and still develop gyno symptoms... obivously quality is essential but arimidex is not nearly as strong as aromasin...

That's good to know. If gyno symptoms start-which I don't expect-but if they do would you still dose at 12.5 mg eod or would you up it for the first few days of treatment to make sure you really dry yourself out?

I would choose LETROZOLE or AROMASIN here.

 

[JoeBlob]

Definitely go with Aromasin if you have a choice between the two. If you are gyno prone, just run 12.5mg EOD from the beginning of your cycle. Have Letro on hand just in case.

If you are not gyno prone, just start taking the Aromasin 12.5 ED or EOD (depending on how bad it has gotten) as you notice high estro symptoms.

Again-I'll only be using an AI if I start to notice symptoms of elevated E such as itchy nips or weakened sex drive-in this instance would it be better to use letro or aromasin to normalize things and at what dosage. Honestly, if things do start to get fucked I just want to straighten the situation out as quickly as possible and then I'll just cut the test out and switch to masteron as my base which I've done before and it worked like a charm in terms of libido, energy, and strength. I'm basically using the test as an experiment-given my goals I don't think I need it but I want to see how it works in terms of performance gains-specifically strength in comparison to Masteron. I didn't use it the first time around because it seemed like more of a headache than it was worth in terms of potential sides but my thinking today is to use a low dose-250 mg-plus a healthy dose of a nice clean anabolic like Primo and see what's what.

 

[dylangemelli]

start at EOD and if you need to bump it to ED then bump it...

 

[masterkush81]

I have to take it daily to keep my estrogen down

 

[JTJT123]

start at EOD and if you need to bump it to ED then bump it...

I'm gonna get the aromasin then and dose it like that. Good looking out Dylan.
