Test E - 5 weeks @ 500mg, then 6 weeks @ 250??

[skinsfan]

Anyone think this could have any adverse affects? I have been on 500mg weekly of test E as my first cycle for the past 5 weeks. I have responded incredibly well and I feel like I might have overdone it. I'm up 20 lbs already and I don't feel like I'm slowing down.

The only bad reaction I've had so far is facial acne in the past two weeks. I am not acne prone at all, but I guess the overload of Test has converted into too much DHT and is making my oil glands go into overdrive. I've been washing twice a day with a salicylic acid formula but I'm not sure its doing much.

That being said, I would like to drop from 500 weekly to 250 weekly for the remainder of the cycle. I would just drop my dose in half to 125 mg every monday and thursday. Does anyone think this will be a problem this late in the cycle or will I be fine?

I'd space your injections out another day or 2. That's the easiest way to lower the dose. I wouldn't drop your dose by 50%.

Thanks for the reply, So you think instead of monday and thursday just do like 250mg every 5 days?

Yes. That's the way to go for sure for you at this point.

I would just take the 250mg in one dose...every 5-7days

250mg every 5 days will be fine

There's no way it could be 20 lbs of muscle. I know there's some water retention, but not much, I've been on 10 mg/day aromasin since week two and I never feel too bloated. But 20 lbs of weight gain has to be some fat and water as well as muscle. That being said, I would think that MOST of it really is muscle, cause I'm blowing up like a balloon.

With the growth rate and the acne on my face I feel like I'm 16 all over again. not to mention the fact that I want to nail almost any piece of ass that walks by me.

I know you only get one first cycle, and I did a ton of research before hand, practically two months of just sitting in front of my computer pouring over data. In the end I decided that purely Test Enanthate was what I wanted to do, and from what most people say 500mg shot in two parts every week is the ticket. But some people also say 250mg/wk is also fine for a first cycle. I dunno, with the results I'm getting so far it seems like 500 is pretty badass. If I could get similar results by dropping to 250 then it would seem only logical to do so. Saving the higher doses of test for my next cycle(s).

But I respect most everyone's opinion on here and I will listen intently to what people think about this situation.

You are gonna get less side effects from the lower dose as well.
