Another Newbie thread......
First off let me say welcome and I hope your stay here will be a pleasant one! There’s a whole lot of valuable information on this site and a lot of good brothers and sisters willing to help out and share their experiences and advice. There are a lot of posts that ask the same questions over and over where it would be easier to just use the search function or take some time and read through posts, but we are all here to learn and pass on what we might know. I’m posting this for newbies to the game and to this site but remember, whatever path you decide to take it’s YOUR decision!! No one here is forcing anything on you and the advice given is just that….advice. Should you decide to take the risk of using steroids than any consequences are your own. There are some terms at the bottom of this post for you to look up on your own. You will see them a lot. There are also a couple of sites for you to visit. Now, with that said let’s get started with some general advice:
Consult your physician-not everyone is comfortable with telling their doctor they use or are about to use roids and that is up to you but DO get a physical and have blood work done.
Workout naturally for as long as possible-building a good solid base and foundation is important to your growth and maintaining gains after a cycle.
Don’t start too young-it’s easy to want to jump on gear (steroids) when you’re in high school but don’t do it. Workout naturally and let your body develop as it should. Unless you’re competing wait until mid 20’s or so to start juicing, and have years of natural training already under your belt.
Know your steroids-when you have settle on a particular cycle, know what it is you’re taking and the potential side effects. If it’s a steroid that’s hard on the liver, cholesterol, prostate, heart, kidneys, gyno prone, etc…know this and take measures ahead of time. The Afstore is LOADED with goodies to help combat these things.
Starting-have all of your gear, ancillaries and post cycle therapy (PCT) before you start! It happens frequently where a bro will run out of his gear and not know what to do, or will panic because they start to experience signs of gyno (gynocomastia-bitch tits) and don’t have any anti-e’s (anti-estrogens) on hand. BE PREPARED!
Cycle-this advice may vary from person to person and is only a guideline but this is what I usually recommend: I usually say to start with a 10 week cycle of a long ester testosterone(cypionate, enanthate, sustanon) at a dose of 400-500 mgs. per week. These should be broken up in to 2 shots a week. As an example: 200-250 mgs. Every Monday and another 200-250 mgs. Every Thursday. By shooting twice a week, it will help keep your blood levels more consistent. This isn’t necessary as you could shoot the whole 500 mgs. once a week but it seems more beneficial from a body building perspective to run it twice a week. Running this will give you an idea of how your body will react to testosterone and if you encounter any side effects. If you were running a stack (2 or more steroids at once) and had some negative side effects, you might not know which one was causing it. Testosterone is used as a base for a lot of cycles so this is important. Your PCT is what you will run after your cycle is complete to help get your natural testosterone up and running quickly in hopes of keeping gains acquired will on cycle. The timing of your PCT is important and the start date will vary depending on the half-life of the drug. So on this site, this is what it would look like:
wks 1-10 test @ 400-500 mgs.
wks 12-15 pct
Consult your physician- After your cycle, check with your doctor to make sure all is well. Have more blood work done for a comparison.
Once you’ve successfully completed your first cycle, you’ll probably be anxious to start another one. I know I was, so the question becomes: How long do I have to wait between cycles? Well, the general rule of thumb is that time on=time off. So if you were on a 10 week cycle, you’d wait 10 weeks after the completion of your PCT before you’d start your next cycle. Again, this is a guideline.
When can you expect to see results? With this 10 week cycle, and with a lot of long ester cycles, usually around the 4th or 5th week.
You want to know how much weight you can expect to gain from your first cycle, right? Well that’s all going to depend on a few things like your genetics, diet, workout and rest habits. A testosterone only cycle might get you 8 lbs. or it might get you 20 lbs. Experiment to find out. It’s a trial and error type of thing.
How much of your gains will you keep after your cycle? Hard to say. Some believe that if you are already at your “genetic limit” than anything above that you won’t keep, or is difficult to keep. Some feel that a cycle will help you get to your genetic limit quicker and once there, you can maintain what you’ve gained. Don’t be surprised though if you gain 10-15 lbs. your first cycle and lose most of it. If not, great!! If so, maybe there are some adjustments you need to make. Trial and error.
Testosterone is testosterone is testosterone! Test is test! It’s the esters that are added to them that are different. Example: testosterone propionate, referred to as prop and testosterone cypionate, referred to as cyp. They are both testosterones, however when the ester cypionate is added to test, it can be shot less frequently ( once or twice a week) than prop because it’s a much longer, slower acting ester (slower time release). Prop on the other hand is fast acting and requires frequent injections of every day or every other day.
If you had a successful ride and would like to become a little more adventurous now, you can look in to stacking, or running a different cycle of a single steroid like anavar, or primo.
This is probably a good place to put this…..I had made a post asking fellow elitefitness brothers and sisters what single item they felt had the biggest impact on their physiques and do you know what it was? Food. Plain and simple. Food. You are what you eat. You can add size to your frame with it, or you can “cut” with it. Your diet is crucial. Steroids can aid in achieving your goals of bulking or cutting but don’t expect them to do all of the work. You can use various steroids in a cycle to cut with or to bulk with. Some steroids don’t add much mass but will harden you up or make you more vascular which is why they are often suggested when cutting but if your diet isn’t in check, it’s not going to matter. And let’s not forget about the importance of water. Drink a lot of water everyday, whether on or off.
Here’s some homework for you. Look these up, there are more but for now:
17-aa steroids
Half life
Esters
Gynocomastia
Estrogen
Progesterone
Ancillaries
Post Cycle Therapy
Stacking
