First Cycle - Please Critique

[Rise No One]

My First Cycle: Please critique, and add any information possible. I'm a newbie!

Been doing a lot of research, and I have plenty of time for adjustments as I'm not going to start this till August or Sept

Starting this fall with my bulking. I’m going to start bulking about 2-4 weeks before I start the cycle…

Stats: 20 years.
176 lbs
10-12%bf (currently cutting until fall)
5’11”
Training seriously for 2 years. Competitive swimmer for the previous 8 years. No shoulder problems luckilyJ

Testoviron/Testosterone Enanthate: 500mg/ml ew
Quad or Glute injections w/ Sterile Oil
Draw with 18 or 20g pin, shoot with 25g pin

Arimidex
.5mg eod (debating on whether or not to use this on my first cycle…might be a little depressing to come off and lose some lbs to water retention)


Nolvadex at hand (if I don’t use Arimidex)

Clomid therapy starting 2 weeks after the last injection. Therapy for 3 weeks.
Day 1: 250g
Day 2: 100g
Day 3-21 50g.


CLENBUTERAL (Oral)
Clen Therapy for 2 weeks starting 1 week after last injection. (Start cutting again)
Taken in the morning.
Day 1: 20mcg
Day 2: 40mcg
Day 3: 60mcg
Day 4: 60mcg
Day 5: 60mcg
Day 6-8: 80mcg
Day 9-11: 100mcg
Day 12: 80mcg
Day 13: 60mcg
Day 14: 40mcg

While on Clen, will be supplementing 5g of Taurine and 500g Potassium per day.


Supplementing throughout the 10 weeks:
15g L-Glutamine per day. 5 in the morning. 5 after workout. 5 before bed.
3000mcg Fish Oil Concentrate for Omega-3’s.
2000mcg Flax seed oil with daily food intake.
2 Multivitamins daily.
Tylenol PM for those rough nightsJ
Cocoa Butter like a mofo for my stretch marksJ

Diet consisting of Bulk cycle:

About 20cal x bw = Approx 3600 Cals a day
Split by 40% protein / 35% carbs / 25% fats
My diet is always fairly clean, with lots of tuna and chicken(I love tunaJ)


I'm currently doing a DC style training program, but I will most likely be switching over to a 5x5 soon and will be on that for my cycle.


Thanks in advance

I think your clomid set up could be a lot better there brother. You might want to go with:

Day 1 300mg

Day 2-11 100mg

Day 12-21 50mg

As for your cycle, I am not a real fan of test only cycles, but I think its possible that you will make your gains off of it. Seeing that you are young and this is your first cycle, you should be OK. I will look at this some more and try to come back to you.

Peace

So a lot of ppl on the board, including kronk recommend clomid like this. Its not a bad idea, but I dont think its necessary. 300 mg loading dose and 50 mg maintenance for 3 weeks seems sufficient from my personal experiences. Bill Roberts recommends the same routine. If you are a bit cheaper (as am i) this is ok, otherwise kronk has agood suggestion too

Bump - Arimidex or not?

i'm all about using lots of gear but i got very good gains from under 200mgs test my first cycle...if you did 250 or even 300 this cycle then when you do 500 next cycle you'll still be very responsive...

Not quite sure why your jumping into the clen so quickly, your at 10-12 % bf and this can be dealt with easily through your diet. I would skip the clen and the risk associated with it. As for test only cycles, I'm not a fan but have seen many make good gains, more so when running short cycles. I personally would add some deca at 300mg/wk or some EQ to the test, but that s me.

Good luck and keep us posted.
