Help.... cycle Help...

[Rick895]

Looking to start my very first cycle. I'm male,30 years old, 6ft 1in, 200lbs, 15% bf maybe less. I do have experience with Sarms, and prohormones, also been in the gym since high school. I'm weight limited to 220lbs. Do not want to gain mass but lean keepable muscle. I've been looking more into the "cutting steroids"(will not consider s4 sr9009 even in the slightest with the eyesight side) because of the weight limit. I originally wanted to do a winstrol only cycle, but quickly learned that's not a great idea. From what I read and see the majority recommend a test only cycle(since I'm a virgin). I understand the different esters, long vs short. A source is selling a cut mix for a decent price and I considered that, but the tren is pretty.... well.... intimadating. I tried the pro hormones tren years back. I did have little prolactin issues ( I was ready for) and night sweats, but it wasn't the "real deal". It would be a few months before I pull the trigger on anything, as I educate myself but would appreciate some user knowledge. My goals are to stay lean, lean out even more and have nice "beach body"
Thanks

OK first off - Steroids do not burn body fat. They increase muscle protein synthesis and prevent muscle catabolism. I feel like I am beating a dead horse saying this over and over but it's a very common misconception and something a lot of people get wrong. Bodybuilders commonly include steroids into their pre-contest cycles to prevent muscle loss when dieting on low calories and doing lots of cardio. The steroids themselves do not burn body fat.

If you want to loose body fat - You need to perfect your diet and training. Its as simple as that. Fat is basically stored energy. To burn fat, you need to expend more calories then you consume.

Just want to make sure your expectations are realistic. Check out this video I made on how to properly run a first steroid cycle -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qqBLCSaKsW4

A simple testosterone cycle of 10-12 weeks at 400-500mg/week is your best option for a first cycle. Being new to steroids, your body will hyper respond and you don't need a very aggressive cycle. It's very similar to an 18 year old having their first drink. A single drink really hits them because they have never drank before. However, a more experienced drinker would need much more alcohol to get the same effect.

Weeks 1-12
Test e or cyp 500mg (inject 250mg twice per week)
Aromasin 10mg EOD <- very important to prevent against estrogen related side effects like gyno and water retention

it sounds like you are all over the place here and very confused.

that is okay, we all were new at one time too

if you do choose to roll with steroids and do the 500mg a week test you need to make sure you run an AI with it otherwise you won't like the results at all

i would also encourage you to read the shit out of our articles on here about these compounds so you understand more about them. and make sure you run blood work before taking off http://goo.gl/kDk0zS <save 10% on bloodwork

Test only would be great. You basically have the freedom to gain 20lbs by what you are saying. That would be right on par with a nice first cycle. Yes you may lose some of it too so you should be within your limit.

Adding an oral could also be an option, but definitely not a necessity.

A good simple test E cycle for 500mg/week for 12 weeks should provide with some nice solid gains.

Most importantly would be to already have PCT schedule planned out before starting any cycle. Otherwise you are bound to lose more than you gained during it.

Right, beginning with test only at the dose the moderators prescribed is correct. If you are going to go through with using steroids, it is not recommended to run a single cmpd only cycle with anything but test. It will screw with your natural hormone levels and throw multiple internal systems out of homeostasis. Even though other steroids share a 95% similar chemical make up to test, it will not have the same effects or binding affinity. Your winstrol only cycle would produce little to no results and squash your libido, cause ED issues among other undesirable effects. Just keep things simple, follow the advice of the admin's and you will be on your way to putting on 10-15lbs of lean mass.
