First Cycle,AI and PCT

[Mac173]

I'm starting my first cycle next week of 500mg/wk Test E for 10wks. I have some Dbol that I was thinking of using for the first 4-6wks at 25-30mg/day. Should I use the Dbol or just stick with str8 test.Would this type of cycle require using an AI? With or without the Dbol? Or would it be best to just have it on hand if needed? Is their any difference in the functionality between A-dex and AIFM? Since this is a test cycle would it be better to use Proviron instead of A-dex if an AI was needed? I already have Nolva. and clomid for my PCT, just wondering if I needed anything during the cycle. From what I have read it doesn't seem like HCG would be needed for this type of cycle. Not long enough or high enough dosages.

On the hcg, it may not and probably is not needed, but i use it even on a 500mg test cycle.. some may debate, so thats why I admit may not be needed but wont hurt.. and yes you can run the dbol to kickstart...

AIFM is stronger than Arimidex.
I would add the dbol. It's a lot of fun to use.

What about using A-dex and AIFM? Are the interchangable? Are they needed?

 

[Ulter]

They are both AI's. Arimidex is just weaker.

They are both AI's. Arimidex is just weaker.

there is also the possibility of rebound with arimidex because its a competitive inhibitor (aifm and aromasin are suicidal inhibitors). also AIFM and aromasin lower SHBG, arimidex does not.

 

[instant.muscle]

what is SHBG?

 

[macrophage69alpha]

what is SHBG?

sex hormone binding globulin. its what makes free test (active), into bound test (inactive).

Can you break this down a little further?

 

[macrophage69alpha]

if test is bound by shbg its not active, so high levels of SHBG are not good for anabolism
