Hello all. Firstly I just wanted to thank everyone here for all of the work and time put into these forums and website. I've been using these forums for the last few years as I started to dabble into PEDs. A little bit about me and my background...
I’ve been active my whole life. I have a physical job as a First Responder. I started lifting weights about 17 years ago and haven't stopped. I workout 5 days a week. I've done various forms of exercise: bodybuilding, powerlifting, crossfit, circuit training, long distance running, hiking, etc. My goal has been to gain about 5 pounds of muscle every year. I've been able to do that for a long time and broke through several plateaus naturally. About two years ago, I finally hit a wall where I wasn't able to gain any weight or break through any strength barriers. I did my first cycle which was MK677 and Ostarine followed by the same cycle several months later. I also did another cycle earlier this year with Anavar at 20mg a day and MK677. These cycles were all about two months long and followed by a simple PCT regimen. I gained about 5 pounds per cycle which I was pretty happy with. Bloods checked before and after. Slightly elevated liver enzymes at first but resolved over a few months. No other issues. Now I'm looking at doing my first cycle with test and hoping to start mid August or September. My goal is simply to add lean muscle and get to about 10% or lower BF.
Stats:

Height - 6'4"
Weight - 250 lbs
BF - 15%

I've tried a lot of different workouts. This is Jim Stoppani's full body shortcut to size workout with some slight modifications that has become one of my favorites over the years. It focuses on a primary muscle group but you end up doing a few sets of every muscle throughout workout. Periodization style so every week the rep ranges decrease as weight goes up. Reps go as low as 3-5 in the final week. All workouts start with dynamic stretching and light warmup and finish with a sauna/steam room session with about 15 minutes of static stretching. Cardio is done about five days a week and ranges from running, stairmaster, swimming, or other sports and ranges from 15-60 minutes. Sorry I can't get the format to come out as clean as I have on the original document.

Aromasin?
Few questions I have:
Is 300mg a good amount of test to run for the first cycle? What’s the best way to run that? 150mg on Monday & 150mg on Thursday for example?
Is the Aromasin dosage correct? I’ve seen logs where that is run every day or other day so please help me dial in the amount and frequency.
Is Aromasin required for PCT? I’ve seen people stating it is not required in PCT.
N2Generate is currently out of stock. What else is recommended in place of this for PCT?
I’m open to any and all advice! Thank you!
