Hey bros, im 22 and im thinking of doing my first ever cycle of 250mg/week test e. from searching these forums i discovered reputable sources etc. since its my very first cycle, i decided on just 10 weeks to experiment. im writing this thread mainly to find out if i need an AI or not, and im concerned also about sourcing the test itself (customs seizure) since i live in ireland. i was looking into arimidex for the ai. i want to avoid worsening my already susceptible gyno, but im not sure do i even need an ai for only 250mg. i have mostly everything else planned out, these are the only concerns i have left. any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks
Hey brother! If you're already susceptible to gyno you need to take a cautious approach here. A few things I recommend:
1) Start with a low dose, even TRT, and VERY slowly taper up your dose to assess for side effects. Finding your maximum tolerable dose like this will provide invaluable data for designing future cycles and also remove the guess-work when it comes to gyno/ e2 management etc.
2) Adopt a high injection frequency. Daily microadministrations
3) Pay attention to your BF%. Aromatization occurs in fat cells. Higher BF% means more aromatization means more e2.
4) Bloodwork. Before you jump on, and before each increase in dose.
5) If you're unsure bro, get a coach/ guidance. We have many good ones on here

welcome to the EVO family
@janvrilBefore worrying about AI or sources you need to start a proper training and diet log because we have no idea how you eat, train, sleep, or what your body fat actually is.
Get a log up first with daily food, bodyweight, training, and sleep so the EVO family can see if 250mg even makes sense for you and whether an AI would be needed at all. 15min to start one asap
HOW-TO LOG?
Why is a Log Journal important?
- Doing a log will actually help you way more than just dropping random updates. When you lay it all out week by week you start to see patterns in your body that you won’t catch otherwise.
- Other guys here run logs all the time and there’s no privacy issue, nobody is asking for your name or anything personal, it is just training, diet, and how the compound feels.
- The feedback you get is also way better because people can follow along and spot things you might miss. It also helps the next guy who is thinking about running the same compound so you are giving back while you learn.
- Even if you think you might not stick with it, just starting the log makes it easier to come back and add quick notes. That way you get more out of what you are running instead of keeping it all in your head.
To really guide you we need more info from you:
- Please share your diet, training, cardio, sleep, supplements etc log with us in a NEW thread, full log journal so our guidance is based on facts you provide.
- It will take 15-20 minutes max.
- We have 100s of years of experience between us, so you need to post a LOG Journal with your stats (weight,height,age, years training, cycle history) diet, training, cardio, supplement, sleep details. If you don't log what you eat or train now, open NOTES on phone and start recording it there and paste here. Very easy.
- Please post a Log Journal asap for us

I'm not here to be one of those people who lecture. All I ask though is that you educate yourself on the stuff and be aware of the risks of using steroids. At 22 the sooner you use them the sooner that you will destroy your reproductive system and need to be on TRT the rest of your life. Keep that in mind.
You're aware, of course, that being age 22 is a bit too young to be thinking about using steroids
I would go with peptides and SARMs at 22 years old. Save the steroids for a couple more years. Essentially though it's up to you. If you do decide to cycle, keep your cycle short, eight weeks.
at 22 years old if you're going to run a cycle, I would stick to something simple. Maybe do an oral-only cycle as your first one and keep it at 4 or 5 weeks and come off in PCT.
you're definitely too young to run an effective cycle but if you do choose to go with it, I would go with Test E at 400 mg a week. You're going to shut yourself down regardless so might as well go a little stronger
bros at 22 years old, if you can wait a little bit, that would be good. Even waiting another year is good. Maybe run some SARMs, maybe some Ostarine and GW instead. Umbrella has it.
