Approved Log First Testosterone Cycle Log

[impaccablespeck]

Hey guys! After multiple urologist visits, bloodwork consistently showing testosterone levels between 300-400 ng/dl, experimenting with SARMs, and extensive research, I'm finally ready to begin my first REAL cycle. Initially, my doctor was dismissive and didn't provide the support I needed, which led me to a men's health clinic. They prescribed Clomid, which unfortunately caused blurry vision as a side effect. Now I'm on HCG and feeling better mentally. While it's beneficial to have the prescription, pharmacy prices are $200, so I'll primarily be using more affordable sources like Napgear moving forward. My goal is to both gain a lot of muscle and maintain a high healthy testosterone level.

Stats:

• Age: 20
• Height: 6'0" ft (183 cm)
• Weight: 173 lbs (78.5 kg)
• Body Fat: Approximately 15-18%
• Goal: 10 Pounds of lean muscle mass increase, Improved strength, and reducing current body fat levels.

Cycle Details:

• Duration: 8-12 weeks
• Bloodwork: Pre-cycle baseline established; follow-up bloodwork planned may 30th, follow up w clinic and post-cycle.

Cycle Breakdown:

• Testosterone Enanthate: 100-200 mg/week (split into two injections, Monday & Thursday)
• HCG: 300 IU, three times per week (To maintain testicular function)
• Arimidex 0.25-0.5mg if needed, currently experincing water retention and slight gyno on HCG mono.
  PCT
• Clomid: Have prescription on hand, Due to vision side effects I'm planning to try get Enclo/Tamoxifiene. Two weeks post-cycle, duration of 4 weeks (50mg/day first two weeks, then 25mg/day).

Supplement Stack:

• NAC (600 mg/day)
• Creatine
• Boron
• D3+K2
• Omega-3 Fish Oil
• Cialis 5mg (Pre-workout/When needed)
• Trazadone (Sleep)

Diet Plan:
Diet is currently my weakest part, I don't count calories and just eat lots of meat and carbs at a surplus while trying to keep sugars/fats/unhealthy foods at minimum, ocassionaly letting myself have a snack or two.
1g of protein per pound of weight.

• Primary protein sources: chicken, lean beef, eggs, whey protein
• Carbs: rice, mashed potatoes, oats, fruits, macaroni,spaghetti
• Healthy fats: avocados, olive oil, nutswr

Training Plan:
Following a PPL/Upper-Lower hypertrophy-focused split focused on HIIT, cardio for 30-45 minutes 3-4 time a week.

My goals for the cycle is to Build lean muscle mass effectively, reduce body fat and avoid excessive water-weight, keep my clinic out of this but "use" them if needed. I would love to hear feedback from you guys, especially around managing timing with my upcoming 2.5-week trip abroad at the end of June. I'm considering either pausing mid-cycle or sneaking oil into an HCG vial. Also, my clinic has bloodwork scheduled for May 30th, and I want to see how starting test affect the results.

Welcome to EVO mate, throw a picture up with face blurred so we can see your starting point.

Goal: 10 Pounds of lean muscle mass increase, Improved strength, and reducing current body fat levels.

This is how I went wrong, you get caught in no man's land spinning your wheels, you either cut or bulk. As a guide when above 15% Cut, when below 12% Bulk

Diet is currently my weakest part, I don't count calories and just eat lots of meat and carbs at a surplus while trying to keep sugars/fats/unhealthy foods at minimum, ocassionaly letting myself have a snack or two.

If your taking it seriously you count everything. Or meal prep. This is more important then anything else you will do

@impaccablespeck welcome to the EVO family. It's great to hear from you. I like your supplement stack.
You sure you need to use an AI on that little bit of testosterone, you don't want to overdo it.

Appreciate the honest advice man. I’ve tracked food in the past so I get the value for sure, right now I’ve just been keeping it clean and simple with mom's cooking. And it hasn’t felt too hard to stay on track. That said, I’m definitely open to dialing it in more once the cycle kicks off..

 

[impaccablespeck]

Some quick starting point pics. Haven’t started cycle yet, just wanted to give a baseline for now, appreciate all the feedback so far!

 

[Mobster]

Was there a medical reason behind the lower end reading of test?

 

[LevButlerov]

Thanks Lev! I’ll start tracking meals/training in my notes. Haven’t been using digestive support. Will be posting update pics, currently waiting for gear to arrive.

Don't worry about the gear, start the pics and log as it's on the way. @impaccablespeck

Hey guys! After multiple urologist visits, bloodwork consistently showing testosterone levels between 300-400 ng/dl, experimenting with SARMs, and extensive research, I'm finally ready to begin my first REAL cycle. Initially, my doctor was dismissive and didn't provide the support I needed, which led me to a men's health clinic. They prescribed Clomid, which unfortunately caused blurry vision as a side effect. Now I'm on HCG and feeling better mentally. While it's beneficial to have the prescription, pharmacy prices are $200, so I'll primarily be using more affordable sources like Napgear moving forward.

1g of protein per pound of weight.

• Primary protein sources: chicken, lean beef, eggs, whey protein
• Carbs: rice, mashed potatoes, oats, fruits, macaroni,spaghetti
• Healthy fats: avocados, olive oil, nutswr

Training Plan:
Following a PPL/Upper-Lower hypertrophy-focused split focused on HIIT, cardio for 30-45 minutes 3-4 time a week.

My goals for the cycle is to Build lean muscle mass effectively, reduce body fat and avoid excessive water-weight, keep my clinic out of this but "use" them if needed. I would love to hear feedback from you guys, especially around managing timing with my upcoming 2.5-week trip abroad at the end of June. I'm considering either pausing mid-cycle or sneaking oil into an HCG vial. Also, my clinic has bloodwork scheduled for May 30th, and I want to see how starting test affect the results.

@impaccablespeck Looking really good, man. I like your supplement list. You can always adjust your anti-estrogen as you go.

 

[Masonic Bodybuilder]

Great start to the log brother. Looking forward to following along. I would probably increase the test dose a bit if you are thinking of this as a "cycle". 100-200mg is basically just a TRT dose and I am assuming you want more than just replacing your natural testosterone. Second thing would be diet. As already mentioned, make sure you are meal prepping ahead of time so you are hitting your goals. Good luck!

 

[impaccablespeck]

@impaccablespeck This is a tremendous opening to this log. Don't forget to get your pictures up. What do you mean by Vision side effects? You're talking about the Clomid

Yes, the Clomid was making my vision really blurry.

Initially, my doctor was dismissive and didn't provide the support I needed, which led me to a men's health clinic. They prescribed Clomid, which unfortunately caused blurry vision as a side effect. Now I'm on HCG and feeling better mentally. While it's beneficial to have the prescription, pharmacy prices are $200, so I'll primarily be using more affordable sources like Napgear moving forward. My goal is to both gain a lot of muscle and maintain a high healthy testosterone level.

Stats:

• Age: 20
• Height: 6'0" ft (183 cm)
• Weight: 173 lbs (78.5 kg)
• Body Fat: Approximately 15-18%
• Goal: 10 Pounds of lean muscle mass increase, Improved strength, and reducing current body fat levels.

Cycle Details:

• Duration: 8-12 weeks
• Bloodwork: Pre-cycle baseline established; follow-up bloodwork planned may 30th, follow up w clinic and post-cycle.

Cycle Breakdown:

• Testosterone Enanthate: 100-200 mg/week (split into two injections, Monday & Thursday)
• HCG: 300 IU, three times per week (To maintain testicular function)
• Arimidex 0.25-0.5mg if needed, currently experincing water retention and slight gyno on HCG mono.
  PCT
• Clomid: Have prescription on hand, Due to vision side effects I'm planning to try get Enclo/Tamoxifiene. Two weeks post-cycle, duration of 4 weeks (50mg/day first two weeks, then 25mg/day).

Supplement Stack:

• NAC (600 mg/day)
• Creatine
• Boron
• D3+K2
• Omega-3 Fish Oil
• Cialis 5mg (Pre-workout/When needed)
• Trazadone (Sleep)

Diet Plan:
Diet is currently my weakest part, I don't count calories and just eat lots of meat and carbs at a surplus while trying to keep sugars/fats/unhealthy foods at minimum, ocassionaly letting myself have a snack or two.
1g of protein per pound of weight.

• Primary protein sources: chicken, lean beef, eggs, whey protein
• Carbs: rice, mashed potatoes, oats, fruits, macaroni,spaghetti
• Healthy fats: avocados, olive oil, nutswr

Training Plan:
Following a PPL/Upper-Lower hypertrophy-focused split focused on HIIT, cardio for 30-45 minutes 3-4 time a week.

My goals for the cycle is to Build lean muscle mass effectively, reduce body fat and avoid excessive water-weight, keep my clinic out of this but "use" them if needed. I would love to hear feedback from you guys, especially around managing timing with my upcoming 2.5-week trip abroad at the end of June. I'm considering either pausing mid-cycle or sneaking oil into an HCG vial. Also, my clinic has bloodwork scheduled for May 30th, and I want to see how starting test affect the results.

@impaccablespeck Keep up the bloodwork, try to track your diet at least for a bit, and remember gaining lean muscle takes time don’t try to rush it.

@impaccablespeck nice work man. Can’t wait to follow along

 

[LevButlerov]

Some quick starting point pics. Haven’t started cycle yet, just wanted to give a baseline for now, appreciate all the feedback so far!

You look good, base is strong I can tell you've tried and we can grow on this base easy. you'll really thicken if you eat and we track nutrition and training. @impaccablespeck

check the other thread on naps I just answered for you

Log update: The past 3 days I’ve been feeling a bit weird so I took a rest day followed by an upper chest abs and rear delta workout, yesterday I hit a nice arm day where I utilized the V-bar for tricep pushdown, and baysian curls for biceps. Love these 2 new exercises for bi&tri.
For food I’ve been trying to lose fat and so I’ve been hitting 200-300cal cardio sessions at the end of my workouts which are usually just an incline treadmill or some jogging.
Meals have been also more consistent with calorie tracking but mainly focusing more on protein I made sure I hit 170-180 grams every day and I wasn’t starving myself but definitely eating less.

I’m on 2nd week of my cycle and wanted to share some initial impressions, I’ve started my cycle at 160mg a week split into 2 doses ( so still in TRT area but decided to be safe and test my reaction, source quality etc.. ) on the end of week 1 I definitely begun to feel physical changes especially more leaness, I was in this bathroom that had some good lighting so I took some pics no pump for the update.

I feel like Arms and abs definitely more defined.
