18 male 5'10 64kg (10-15% bf). Been training for 4 years (2 hard consistent dialed in years and 2 on and off years, not chronological).
I squat 130kg, deadlift 130kg and bench 100kg. My knees have always been shit so legs aren't my strongest comparatively. I run anterior posterior split (fav split) and do 1 rep warmup moderate weight, then 8 rep set of 0-2rir and lastly 3-5 reps 0-2rir.
Depending on the day and schedule, i eat in a range of 200-400 calories deficit/surplus of my maintenance. I eat vertical diet and take iron, d3, k2, fish oil and probiotic supplements. When dialed in i add creatine and electrolytes at appropriate times and phases (load creatine and maintain saturation).
I know I havent hit my natty ceiling or potential yet but i have a few reasons for wanting to do a cycle of something.
firstly i struggle with eating foods or eating enough food daily and have even gotten prescriptions from doctors for some antidepressant to help me eat more and gain weight alongside being diagnosed with childhood micro and macromalnutrition.
My blood panels (thyroid, minerals and vitamins, hormones etc) have come back (in my nutritional and training PEAK btw) in low average range but "nothing to worry about", most concerning was low test (300ng/dl - 450ng/dl) which for my age and age range speaks for itself. Like to note that that wasnt low enough to be prescribed anything, despite in my opinion feeling the symptoms,
My thyroid (despite me being incredibly suspicious of it due to minor swelling and lymph node stuff) came back in perfectly normal ranges. And im very lightly mildly insulin resistant and have a history of childhood very low iron. I currently sit at around 430ng/dl of test and all my other hormone (t3, t4, LH and FSH) are also relatively similar ratio wise. I definitely can feel and recognise when my test is low as i have absolutely zero motivation, fatigued and longer recovery, no drive and brain fog etc. For the past six months ive been experiencing these symptoms (despite training well and eating well) and im sick of it as i know what its like to be in the higher of my low physiological ranges.
I also have the bone age of like a 20 year old and my growth plates are well and truly closed (based on wrist and shoulder xray), and my sleep is so dogshit lately no matter what supp i take or etc. I average like 7-9 hours of sleep (despite feeling tired all the time and like having time to sleep more, my body just wont). also side note, wore a heart holster for a week and have an average resting hr of 38 so... either im an olympian or bradycardia (def bradycardia as also have consistent low bp)
im not looking for pity or medical diagnosis or something. I know my whole scenario and know like what is generally wrong. My goal with the cycle is to mainly boost motivation and improve sleep while also obviously getting a little closer to my goals.
I was looking at MT2 for its minor drive benefits while also hopefully darkening and supporting my genuinely paper white skin. Looking at doing the More plates more dates method and starting at 50mcg and weening up slowly.
considering glow or bpc or something for maybe supporting my gut and knees and bpcs hunger sides (yes i know mt2 can counteract this) but idrk about this stack.
Considering something on the HGH axis for the sleep and recovery benefits (+might help my MARPE and myotherapy + osteogenesis!!!) was looking at cjc no dac and ipa or ghrp-2 so i can get benefits without a constant release which could do something to my mild insulin resistance (i do have berberine / GDA that im willing to try to use to counter this)
Lastly considering just a small TEST E + Hcg + ai + PCT beginner cycle. Probs 350 test a week (split into 2).
Not scared of pinning, More scared of losing my nuts or becoming diabetic.
Looking for any and all advice
