Hi,
I just recently joined, and have found that this is an extremely helpful board loaded with information. I'm about to start my first "real" cycle, and have a couple of questions.
Some background information -
Stats - 5'9" 220 lb, 18% bf, 30 years old
Goal - cutting bf % while preserving/possibly adding lbm
AAS experience - one 20mg var only cycle a few years ago (results were amazing for me), and lots of research since then
Cycle - 300-400mg/wk Test E (10 weeks)
T3/Clen/Ketotifen (cycled as appropriate)
Maybe some var, undecided on this
Adex .25mg ED
HCG, Nolva PCT
It's a first cycle and a cutting cycle - hence the low dose of test. Yes, I know about water bloat with Test E, doesn't worry me.
So here are my questions -
1. Is it worthwhile to split up a relatively low dose of Test E into 2x weekly injections (eg, 175mg Monday, 175-200mg Thursday)? I'm looking to keep my hormone levels as stable as possible throughout the cycle. Will this matter on this cycle?
2. I once read about a dosing protocol which involved injecting 250mg of a long acting ester (enth or cyp) E3D at the beginning of the cycle for a period of time, then switching back and forth between E6D and E3D for the rest of the cycle - or something along those lines. The goal was to achieve the desired ng/dL test levels rapidly and stay there throughout the rest of the cycle. Supposedly, it's more efficient than "front loading." Does anyone know how this protocol works, and if so, how often/how much one would inject for lower doses? Is there a formula used to come up with frequency of injections/dosage amounts for achieving X ng/dL throughout the cycle?
Thanks in advance!
