What to bulk up with?

[tical]

Looking for some opinions on what I should use to bulk up.

A few months ago I ran a straight anvar cycle (my first) at 35mg/day for 8 weeks. Held on to about 8lbs of my gains. But damn that was expensive!

I was looking into EQ or Deca for my next cycle. From what I've read Deca is good but will shut you down pretty severe for a few months (don't want that now!) and EQ isn't that great all alone (is this true?).

I'm a little afraid of running test just because of the hairloss that could accompany it, although this sounds like just what I need.

Any pointers here would help... I'm a scrawny fuck at 6' 175. What would you guys recommend that would be the best bang for my buck as far as quality muscle mass / low sides are concerned, keeping in mind that I'm a beginner?

Thanks for your time fellas

Yes, its exactly what you need. Run a Test E or C cycle for 10-12 weeks, two shots a week at 250mg each (500mg week total), make sure you have proper PCT on hand too. With the right diet and workout you'll grow well from this cycle.

If your 6' and only 175lbs you obviously haven't been working out that long, or haven't been that dedicated. You probably still have a lot of growing to do naturally. BTW, I didn't mean that as an insult.
That being said, I'm sure your just as impatient as I am so you don't want to work out for the next 2 - 3 yrs before you hit 200lbs.
My first cycle went like this:
1 - 12 500mg test enanthate / wk
1 - 12 300mg deca / wk
1 - 4 30mg d-bol / wk
I busted my ass, but I put on 40lbs and kept more than half of it.
To combat the hair loss, try finasteride. It does the same thing as Propecia, only MUCH cheaper.

Not with Deca though. 500mg of a long estered test is what need

Test and EQ stacked is a good option IMO 300-500mg test and 400 mg of EQ. Both for 10 weeks. Are you predisposed to hairloss or just generally conerned? In either case say away from DHT based drugs like Wintrol. Hope this helps.

Test/Deca/Dbol is a tried and true mass stack, can't go wrong with that

The last couple of years I've noticed a little excess hair on my pillow and some areas around the sides of the forehead (typical baldness pattern) seem thinner.

That's the main reason I'm concerned, I don't notice any thinning up top or around back but I can tell something is starting and I don't want to accelerate it.

Add me to the "You're so small you probably haven't learned how to lift & eat so steroids won't do you much good at this point" list.

The following cycles are EXCELLENT for newbies to BULK:

Sustanon250 @ 500mg/wk for 10 weeks

or

Dianabol 30mg/ed first 4 weeks with deca @ 400mg/wk for 8 weeks

You will need nolvadex on hand in case of gyno symptoms (itchy nipples for example, then take 20mg ed)


But to make these cycles work for you, you need to EAT like a horse.

Take sandwiches to work to eat in between meal times. Drink protein shakes. Dont have MASSIVE meals, eats several smaller ones and snack in between.

Your workouts need to be intense, using heavy weights at low reps (6-8 reps) with 3 excercises per muscle group.

The important thing here is EAT lots, and train hard. Then you CANT LOSE.
