First cycle - advice

[ricanmuscle28]

This is my first time posting so my apologies in advance if I don't provide the right information.

I'm 30 y/o, 5'9", 155lbs, latino. I plan on starting first cycle at the beginning of Feb and in the meantime I'm doing about 45min of cardio a day, taking Hydroxycut hardcore and on a high protein (~100-110g/day) and low carb diet.

The cycle I am planning on doing is:

Weeks 1-12 Testosterone Cypionate 500 mg / wk
Weeks 1-6 Dianabol 25 mg / per day
PCT Clomid

So my questions are:

1. Does this seem like a good beginning cycle?
2. What kind of diet should I be aiming for to maximize bulking? (Protein, caloric, carb, fat, etc. intake)
3. When should I start PCT and how long for? How much Clomid should I be taking?
4. I will need to travel on business to Brazil for 9 days towards the 8th week of my cycle. What do folks do in situations like this where they will need to travel, can't take their gear with them and probably won't have enough time for the gym while away?

Thanks in advance for the responses and advice!

1) yes
2) how adverse are you to putting on fat?
3) a week after your last shot. I would run Clomid 100mg ed weeks 1-2 and 50mg ed weeks 3-4
4) You could take an extra shot before you leave or when you get back. A better idea might be to plan your cycle so that your shot(s) day falls on the day before you leave.

2) Hmm... I guess gaining some extra fat is necessarily gonna be part of the bulking process, but I would like to avoid significant fat gain.
4) Yeah I should be able to plan that out. Will it be an issue that I might not get to work out much while on the trip? How about my diet, do I need to alter that to compensate for the reduced work out time that week?

What would you recommend? Liquidex/Arimidex?

I can't really answer how many calories per se you need over the net. u should already know this as far as what it takes you to maintain your current weight. i would start with this number (clean cals) and increase that by 250-500 cals a day. u should quickly start seeing whether or not this is putting too much fat on or not. if all is well bump it up another 250-500 cals. At your bodyweight you should strive for 300 grams of protein a day.

it certainly doesn't help that you will be missing workouts. consistency is the key for your meals and training. do not miss them. in your situation you can plan ahead a little. if it is a time issue then so be it. you can always do bodyweight exercises for high reps at night or 1st thing in the morning. i used to do dips between chairs and pullups on door frames etc when i couldn't absolutely get to the gym. i wouldn't cut your cals during this time frame. you could also blast your bodyparts b4 u leave doing an ungodly amount of sets, double split, cut out your off day so that you are so sore you can't move and it wouldnt matter anyway if u had time on your trip u couldnt physically lift.

adex works best for me.

I agree...I would suggest atleast 155-200 grams per day

your questions got answered, but may i say that by simply doubling your protein intake you wil gain substantial mass naturally. at 5'9 and 155, you have A LOT of room to grow before you should take AAS.

the cycle looks good though. pretty simple for a first. i like that. But, i would only run the dianabol for 4 weeks. the test will have kicked in full by then at 4 weeks, and you won't need the dbol anymore really.
