Second Cycle Sanity Check

[bblazer]

I'm 2 weeks away from hitting a second cycle. The first was 12 weeks of 400 mg test cyp with HCG for PCT. Great results, but I lost about 10 of the 18 lbs I put on. Not bad, and I hit my goals of 400 for squat, bench and deadlift.

I am 6'1 235 BF %19 (DEXA scan) and 40 yo. I have been lifting most of my life. I am not a competing BB by any means. Diet is 80% in check.

I currently take 100mg/week Test Cyp TRT.

For my second cycle I was thinking of:

Weeks 1-12 Test Cyp 500 mg
Weeks 1-6 Anavar 50mg ED
HCG PCT.

I have aniztozole .5 mg for an anti-e if needed.

My goals are a drier, harder look with some additional strength gains. Maybe getting into some vascularity, and a reduction of BF to ~15%.

Thanks,
B

Your cycle looks fine but vascularity and a harder look is going to come down to diet and cardio resulting in a BF reduction. It will be hard to achieve either of these two things with a bodyfat in the range of 19-20%.

Exactly why I want to get it back down to 15%.

If I tune up my diet that shouldn't be too difficult, and I already run ~ 18 miles/week. If I kick that up to 20-22 that will get me there even quicker.

i would throw the anavar at the tail end of ur cycle, but it looks great... very similar to what i want as my first cycle ... and diet is KEY!

Why at the end?

well cuz it will give you those lean gains that you want at the end instead of doing it at the beginning and then covering it up with bloat from the test ... also i would run it for 8 weeks at a lower dose .... just my personal opinion, every one prefers something different

id keep the var at the beginning..add eq 400mg ew 1-14 test 500mg ew 1-14....hrt dose afterwards...eq will help with vascular if you bloat run ai at .25 eod...your already on trt no reason to not get the max benefits out of the cycle

 

[bblazer]

OK, now we are talking again about var at the beginning... I'm getting confused as to why the beginning or the end.

I had actually thought about the EQ as well, but this being a 2nd cycle, I just wanted to add only one more component so that I could better gauge what was doing what to my body.

Var at the beginning so your cycle starts then...not waiting a month or so for the test to kick in... But its all in what u prefer.. Me personally use a kickstart for every cycle usually a fast acting injectable since I do not use orals

 

[smtimelevi]

var will definatly help with the strength gooal. But using at the begining or end is up to you. Adex should def keep you lean if thats a concern and help with potential estro sides

1. use as a kickstart if you want quicker gains

2. at the end to top of your cycle nicely once the test gains begin to stagnate
