Starting Stats – March 2026

- Age: 25 (just turned)
- Height: 182 cm (6'0")
- Weight: 73 kg
- Body Fat: 12–15% (visual )
- Natural Testosterone: 1137 ng/dL

-Some physique photos for reference (pics are from september-october 2025, will upload new ones once im done with the cut):

- Training Experience: 2.5 years (background in calisthenics + home workouts)
- Current Split: Chest + Shoulders | Arms + Back | Legs (only 1× every other week)
-My training stats:
140kgs bench press
50kgs dumbbell incline press for reps
45kgs dumbbell shoulder press for reps
60kgs wheighted dips for reps
4 plate tbar row
full stack almost every machine

- **Diet:** Currently cutting – ~2500 kcal (150-170g protein, ~50g fat, rest carbs)
- **Supplements:** Multivitamin, Creatine, Potassium (morning), Omega-3, Zinc, Magnesium, Prebiotic Inulin (night) + occasional Melatonin

- **Goals:** Lean recomp while cutting – add muscle (especially legs), drop a bit more fat, improve overall density and definition. Slight facial sharpening would be a bonus. Not chasing huge bulk.

**Current Stack (as of March 2026)**

- **Retatrutide:** 0.5 mg every 4 days (~1 mg/week) – started 2 weeks ago
- **GHK-Cu:** 2 mg SubQ, 5× per week (Sunday to Thursday)

**Planning on starting this cycle in the next month or two**
-mt1 when i feel like tanning (i leave 15 minutes from a beach so i dont really think tanning would be a problem)
- **Retatrutide:** 1 mg every 4 days (will probably have to up the dose)
- **GHK-Cu:** 2 mg SubQ, 5× per week (Sunday to Thursday)
- **Testosterone Cypionate:** 250 mg/ml – (start low until i reach 250 per week)
- **HGH:** Planned 2-4 IU bedtime starting Week 9 (once Test is stable)

**Injection Protocol (Updated – IM with 1ml insulin needle)**
All injections will be done with 1 ml insulin syringes (27–31G, ½").
Since I’m fairly lean, I will pin **Test intramuscular** in the deltoid (shoulder) at 90°.
Retatrutide and GHK-Cu remain SubQ (abdomen/love handles).
HGH will be SubQ at bedtime.

**Test Ramp Protocol (to minimize sides)**

- Weeks 1–4 on Test: 100–125 mg/week (0.17–0.21 ml Mon/Wed/Fri)
- Weeks 5–8: 150–175 mg/week
- Weeks 9–12: 200 mg/week
- Week 13+: 250 mg/week (only if bloods + feel good)

**Weekly Pinning Schedule (once Test & HGH arrive)**

Retatrutide 1mg (every 4days)
- **Monday:** Test (IM deltoid)
- **Wednesday:** Test (IM deltoid)
- **Friday:** Test (IM deltoid)
- **Sunday–Thursday:** GHK-Cu 2 mg (SubQ)
- **Every night:** HGH 2 IU (SubQ bedtime)

**Bloodwork Schedule**
- Baseline (before starting Test)
- Week 5–6 on Test
- Week 12–13 on Test
- Then every 12 weeks (Total/Free T, sensitive E2, Hematocrit, IGF-1, glucose/insulin, lipids, PSA, liver/kidney)

Im not in a rush, i rather take more time and fully analyse what works for me and to reduce side effects.
Any help would be apreciated
(also sry for the bad english, not my main language):cool:
 
Hi - I commented on your other post.
I don't think you need to titrate up the Test - that is what the ester naturally does anyway. Test E will take a few weeks to get to saturation.
It can happily be injected twice a week or more often of course if you prefer
You may find going straight for your delts first up is a bit too much - I would go glutes.

You are strong by the looks of your stats.

Really you think the glutes are better?r i dont really mind doing the delts it seams easy to do it, also wouldnt i have a better "training response" in the delts since im pinning there? im not really interested in growing my glutes

supplements
Are you taking high doses Vitamin C?
how much creatine do you use ed?
what digestive supps you use?

As @rizzlekdizzle said, both oils and orals are systemic in nature. So pin anywhere, i do most mine spread out over both quads, 6 seperate spots with small volumes. Takes almost 2 weeks to rotate, more than enough time for oil to break down.

Id go straight to 250mg with week 4-5 bloods. If your really wanted to titrate test then start at trt+ 200mg for 4 weeks, then bloods. If bloods good, increase to 250mg. Starting at 100mg is not needed, thats basically the starting dose for trt.

As for hgh, you can start anytime but if you want to wait to be on cycle, just start it same day as test at 2iu. Reassess in 7-10 and raise 1iu. Repeat again, raise to 4iu.

Quick question though. I see you mention bloods every 12 weeks, how long exactly is your cycle plan?

You’ve put a lot of quality thought into this. This is going to go about as good as can be I think!

27g has become my favorite by far, I’ve used them all I think. I use 27g 1” needles. Luer locks. I draw with 18g. I pin glutes, ventroglutes, hip flexors, and delts. A full ml at 1/2” depth should be fiiiiiiiiine but imo deeper is better. Smaller gauges get hard to draw and inject. Most cypionate is 200mg/ml btw. Curious what country you are from?

yhea i still need to grow some balls and do regular needles, well if i really go the TEST route i will need to get used to big needles, but for starters and since the dose will be low, i will use the regular insulin ones 😅
Also since you asked, im from Portugal
 
GoncaloR01 said:
oh ok i tought that pre workout pinning in specific sites would bring more bloodflow to that area
Click to expand...
no man - doesn't work like that. Also sometimes if you pin and then work that exact muscle you will get pretty sore.

There was a Portuguese pro bodybuilder who was on here a lot. Monstro. I knew him from a different forum. Awesome guy. RIP
 
Shakey said:
Okay, thought you were extending fairly long due to wording. No worries then.

Make sure to do bloods a couple weeks after pct to make sure your test levels returned to baseline as well.

- **Goals:** Lean recomp while cutting – add muscle (especially legs), drop a bit more fat, improve overall density and definition. Slight facial sharpening would be a bonus. Not chasing huge bulk.

**Current Stack (as of March 2026)**

- **Retatrutide:** 0.5 mg every 4 days (~1 mg/week) – started 2 weeks ago
- **GHK-Cu:** 2 mg SubQ, 5× per week (Sunday to Thursday)

**Planning on starting this cycle in the next month or two**
-mt1 when i feel like tanning (i leave 15 minutes from a beach so i dont really think tanning would be a problem)
- **Retatrutide:** 1 mg every 4 days (will probably have to up the dose)
- **GHK-Cu:** 2 mg SubQ, 5× per week (Sunday to Thursday)
- **Testosterone Cypionate:** 250 mg/ml – (start low until i reach 250 per week)
- **HGH:** Planned 2-4 IU bedtime starting Week 9 (once Test is stable)

**Injection Protocol (Updated – IM with 1ml insulin needle)**
All injections will be done with 1 ml insulin syringes (27–31G, ½").
Since I’m fairly lean, I will pin **Test intramuscular** in the deltoid (shoulder) at 90°.
Retatrutide and GHK-Cu remain SubQ (abdomen/love handles).
HGH will be SubQ at bedtime.

**Test Ramp Protocol (to minimize sides)**

- Weeks 1–4 on Test: 100–125 mg/week (0.17–0.21 ml Mon/Wed/Fri)
- Weeks 5–8: 150–175 mg/week
- Weeks 9–12: 200 mg/week
- Week 13+: 250 mg/week (only if bloods + feel good)

**Weekly Pinning Schedule (once Test & HGH arrive)**

Retatrutide 1mg (every 4days)
- **Monday:** Test (IM deltoid)
- **Wednesday:** Test (IM deltoid)
- **Friday:** Test (IM deltoid)
- **Sunday–Thursday:** GHK-Cu 2 mg (SubQ)
- **Every night:** HGH 2 IU (SubQ bedtime)

**Bloodwork Schedule**
- Baseline (before starting Test)
- Week 5–6 on Test
- Week 12–13 on Test
- Then every 12 weeks (Total/Free T, sensitive E2, Hematocrit, IGF-1, glucose/insulin, lipids, PSA, liver/kidney)

Im not in a rush, i rather take more time and fully analyse what works for me and to reduce side effects.
Any help would be apreciated

Great job on this. I like that you are setting up the retatrutide at 1 mg every 4 days. That is a good protocol to start it with. @GoncaloR01

Excellent layout on your blood work. @GoncaloR01 now you have a reference that you can always go back and take a look at. If anything starts getting crazy you can cross-check it with these numbers and see if anything's changed.

@GoncaloR01 Bros, you look like a million bucks, especially for a younger dude. I can't imagine where you are going to be in the next three to five years. You keep your head on straight; you're going to get far.

You are looking tremendous boss. I like that you're taking your blood work seriously and you have a protocol for that. I think your cycle overall is very lean. @GoncaloR01
 
Guys i´ve been researching and i think i´ve found a sweetspot atleast for the next upcoming months.
My natural test is already very high, so I don’t want to add exogenous testosterone as a base (extra estrogen + sides). What do yall think of using enclomiphene to keep my own LH/FSH and natural production high, preventing a big shutdown from other compounds. Adding HGH to counter the IGF-1 drop from enclomiphene and help with muscle preservation + extra fat loss.


Goal is a dry, lean recomp while keeping energy, libido and natural hormonal stability as high as possible without a traditional test base.


Cycle: 8–10 weeks on Primo+HGH.

Enclomiphene 6.25–12.5 mg/day
HGH 2–4 IU/day
Primobolan (Methenolone Enanthate) 300–400 mg/week (split 2x/3x)

Questions for you guys:
Is enclomiphene + HGH enough to keep things stable at 300–400 mg Primo?
Any better mild injectable or tweaks?
Missing on-cycle supports?

Bloodwork before/mid/post already planned.


Thanks for any input!
