Cycle Questions

[in2it]

I am starting my 3rd cycle and have a few questions. I am 44, 5'10", 186lb, around 18-20% BF. First 2011 & second 2012 cycle were: 1-12wk: 400mg/wk test c + 1-10wk: 200mg/wk deca d + 1-12wk: 1mg 2x/wk anastrozole. After cycle I went back to my 150mg/wk test c & .5mg 2x/wk anastrozole TRT dose and 1600-1800 calories/day. I am starting my 3rd cycle: 1-12wk: 400mg/wk test c + 1-8wk: 200mg/wk deca d + 1-4wk: 20mg/day dbol (5mg 4x/day) + 1mg 2x/wk anastrozole. My first 2 went well, good gains, a little acne, no gyno and no hail loss. Now that I am adding 20mg/day of dbol I have been reading about hail loss and I would like to prevent as much as possible. The first 2 cycles I tried to consume around 2000-2200 calories a day(200g protein min), low fat good food.
1. What is the best thing for hair loss?
2. Do I need to increase my calories?
3. Would it be better to do 1/2 amount of test & deca on mon & thurs?
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, in2it.

1. What is the best thing for hair loss?

If you're not experiencing hair loss, I wouldn't worry about it. However, I've seen clients have hair loss issues with deca (though very select)

2. Do I need to increase my calories?

@186, your BMR is around 2200, so if you're looking to cut thats -10% of your BMR, to bulk you'll need 20-30%+.

3. Would it be better to do 1/2 amount of test & deca on mon & thurs?

They are long esters, pinning twice/week not a requirement, but if you don't mind - you would at a good place to do twice/week pinning. I suggest splitting the dosages if you can.

Thanks for the suggestion. I will try to stay around 3000 during the blast (then drop to 2000-2200 while cruising) and do 200mg test c & 100mg deca 2x per week. I have seen that some say to use Minoxidil or take finasteride? I read finasteride is not good to take with dbol? Just trying to be safe but if I did not have issues from the first 2 rounds I must not be prone? Just concerned because reading about hair loss w/ dbol.
