Approved Log My First Testosterone Enanthate cycle Log

Hello everyone and first of all thank you for giving me the opportunity to find out a lot here too about how to do a first cycle and what the important factors are.
I'll give you some information about me:

Age: 35 years old
Weight: 79kg/174lb【78,93 kg】before starting cycle,now 86kg
Height: 183cm
Years of training: 10 years
BF: approximately 10%.

Nutrition: I am currently in bulk with 2700 kcal avarege
130P - 400C- 65F

NEAT: 10K die at the moment, in CUT I go up to 16k die
Integration:
-1cps at day Multivitaminic
- 1 cps Vti b12
- 1 cps Vit K
- 3 cps Omega 3

Training: 4xweek + 1 day Cardio 45min.

After 10 years of continuous training, with consistency and discipline I follow the diet and training with pleasure and very carefully, I track the macros as you can see and follow training progressions. Until recently I was at technical failure on all series but I noticed a slow improvement in loads and progressions in general, so I decided to stay at Buffer 1 and technical failure only on isolation exercises such as lateral raises or exercises where I exceed 12 reps safely (I obviously avoid bench, deadlift, squat).

I decided I wanted to undertake my first cycle to see how my body responds since I have medium/low population genetics in general. Okay, not everyone is lucky and to get 20% of the results I have to commit to 90%, in fact from the photos you can see that I am a guy who trains but not as much as my years and experience in the weight room might say.
However, for the first cycle I thought about following the so-called "KISS": Keep It Simple, Stupid.
So here's how I planned it over 16 weeks.
I also thought that being the first cycle I have the possibility of having some sides but being the first I have the possibility of noticing them as I am a "virgin" from the AAS and therefore being able to immediately notice the differences in my body.

Here is my current plan.

STARTED 11/19/23
Week 1-12
: 500 mg testosterone enanthate per week (2 injections of 250 mg every 3 days E3.5D)
Week 4-12: 0.25mg Arimidex (Anastranzole) E3.5D (along with Testo)
Week 5-12: 250 IU of HCG (EOD) and 0.25mg Arimidex (Anastranzole)

5 WEEKS OFF (in these 5 weeks the first 3 I will continue to use HCG 250UI EOD)

Week 1-2:
20 mg Tamoxifen(Nolva) ED
Week 3-4: 20 mg Tamoxifen(Nolva) ED
Week 5-6: 20 mg Tamoxifen(Nolva) ED
---------------------------------

EXAMS ON 11/17/23

17 BETA ESTRADIO
L 9.52 pcg/ml
Normal values
Follicular phase 18-147
Pre-ovulatory peak 93-575
Luteal phase 43-214
Menopause < 58
Man 62

FREE TESTOSTERONE (1) 14.7 pg/mL
VALUES: 18-39 years: 12.3-46.6
40 59 years: 9.57-40.6
60 years: 7.72-31.4

TOTAL TESTOSTERONE 5.61 mcg/l
Men 3.0 10.6
Woman 0.1-0.9

I'm at the beginning of week 5 (today I did my testosterone pin), in less than seven days I'll have blood tests to evaluate how to proceed with Adex. Speaking of this AI, I would like some advice as I have noticed several things in the past 6 weeks.


I started taking the lowest dose of Adex (0.25mg) at the end of week 3 as I had these side effects of high E2 levels:

-Moon face
- Strong burning in the nipples
- Very emotional
- Joint pain at night
- High blood pressure
- Negative thoughts (which I never do)
- Severe itching on the left hand (I know, it's strange, but I noticed this side)
- Very excessive sweating during sleep

Taking it on the usual days of Test E (E3.5D) things improved and I had found the right dose to feel good, even if the sweat is still present.
At the end of week 4 I noticed discomfort in my testicles, a sign that testosterone production was decreasing. I therefore started taking HCG 250UI EOD and in fact the discomfort went away but I perceived the E2 levels as higher because if E3.5D was fine with adex, now I found myself taking it 1 day earlier because the E2 levels were high enough to even make me feel lethargy during the day.

My thought is whether to take adex at this point E2D or keep it E3.5D even if side of this kind I wouldn't want to have them again, I want to enjoy this first experience of mine by knowing my body as best as possible rather than having the fear that sooner or later the side of high e2.
I don't want to increase the dose because, as mentioned above, I will have blood tests in a week and with those I will be able to decide how to proceed whether to decrease/increase/maintain the adex dose.

Why Adex?
I had initially thought about Aromasin, but as a first experience with adex I read that since it is not suicidal it can, if I get the doses wrong and send the E2 levels too low, make them rise faster and also understand my body better.
I would be very grateful for your intervention for anything and I thank you for reading me, obviously I will keep the Log updated from tomorrow after my training.

Thanks again and have a nice day folks!

Weight this morning: 87.6kg (193.1lb)

In these first 5 weeks in terms of strength I have not noticed huge increases, I am certainly having microloads on many exercises such as RDL which went from 90kg which was my 10RM to 105kg 10RM.
Squats: PRE CYCLE 90X10
ON CYCLE 100X10

Recovery is going well although I think this annoying high E2 is making my life a bit more complicated. I sweat a lot at night, there are few days during the week where I can say I 'feel good', I always have something annoying that complicates my day. Mild headaches that are due to high blood pressure? I ask for your opinion based on your experiences.

This morning I took ADEX 0.25MG, I think I will do EOD to see if the situation improves. Could the choice be wise based on what you have experienced so far?

My diet is very simple and basic in terms of foods as it is convenient for me to always use the same ones, I like them and digest them well.
I have 5 meals included.
The breakdown is as follows
4 MEALS
CARB
50 gr
PRO 26 gr
FAT 15 gr

MEALS POST WO
CARB
200 gr
PRO 26 gr

@Eddie_x welcome to the evolutionary.org family thanks for sharing

now if you have estrogen e2 problems now forget hcg
I would say if you using arimidex 500mgs of testosterone needs at least .5mgs arimidex ED not your low dose
but you can switch to aromasin

on your diet its not clear why so high carbs and low protein?
please post on your diet what you're eating actual food and what you eat and when
on training, please share actual exercises you doing sets weights reps
If you don't log what you eat or train now, open NOTES on phone and start recording it there and paste here. Very easy.

and share a few meal pics
i see pics of you but missing pics of your steroids post those
and pics of your training if you can

most of those sides are associated with elevated estrogen

so you need to make sure you are always balancing estrogen on cycle, never let it get out of control.
 
def making progress bro
 
hcg will make estrogen worse
what you need is letro when estrogen is too bad. i use it ahead of contests sometimes to really dry out!
 
thanks for putting this up it really helps us help you
you always want to make sure you're using a solid AI when you are on cycle
 
kudos to you for getting this log started
can you please include some meal pictures next
 
water retention and estrogen side effects can cause issues
it's important also to detail your diet and not just post your Macros
 
I would consider increasing your fats and lowering your carbs a little bit
that seems to be the sweet spot for most guys
 
Bros good start to the log for sure
can you get some more pictures so we can see what you look like up front and also of your legs make sure to blur out your face
 
Thank you all for the messages received so far! I really appreciate that my status helps me and therefore I will answer you all so that you can better understand how my journey is going

capisci cosa hai sbagliato per non ripetere gli stessi errori?

Questo è fondamentale perché se continui a ripetere gli stessi errori otterrai gli stessi risultati
HI! One mistake I think I made was waiting for the more obvious symptoms of high E2 to start taking Adex at the lowest dose. And I am left with the fear of not exaggerating with the dose given that reading the various experiences such a low E2 is more annoying than a high one, so I remain very thoughtful and think I am wrong. As in this case I am using half a dose of Adex 0.25 mg and I have sensations of high blood pressure. Since this morning I had intended to take 0.25mg of adex ED and after the tests I will do on Wednesday I will decide whether to increase it or not, but I am not sure whether I will do well or not. Honestly, I'm tired of not fully enjoying this experience and
I fratelli hanno sicuramente avuto un buon inizio nel registro
puoi fare qualche altra foto così possiamo vedere come sei davanti e anche le gambe, assicurati di sfocare il viso

Hello and thanks! Of course, after this post I will insert more photos in different poses and also the training done today
grazie per averlo pubblicato, ci aiuta davvero ad aiutarti
vuoi sempre assicurarti di utilizzare un'intelligenza artificiale solida quando sei in bicicletta
Hello and thank you too for being able to help me with any future doubts I will have

hcg peggiorerà gli estrogeni
ciò di cui hai bisogno è letro quando gli estrogeni sono troppo dannosi. lo uso prima delle gare a volte per asciugarmi davvero!
HI!
I'll explain why I started using HCG 250UI EOD.

Last week I started to feel discomfort in my testicles, pains that occurred healthily throughout the day. Informandi immediately understood that they were telling me that their function was failing and so I started using HCG. In fact it's better now but, as you know, HCG brings an increase in E2 levels and I had underestimated this and since I've been taking it I feel that the dose I was used to of Adex needs to be changed.
At the moment I have adex and aromasin, I knew that once I take adex I have to keep it for the entire cycle and that compared to aromasin it is possible to manage it better, am I right or am I doing something wrong? If so, I'm open to advice

la ritenzione idrica e gli effetti collaterali degli estrogeni possono causare problemi
è importante anche dettagliare la tua dieta e non limitarsi a pubblicare i tuoi macro
Hello and thanks for the reply! Yes, I very much agree and after this post I will publish my meals to you even if the foods are always the same as usual, that is:
- Rice
- Oatmeal
- Rice crackers
- Cocoa 90%
- Almonds
- Protein pudding
- Egg whites
- Chicken
- Tomatoes, lettuce, carrots, lettuce

Prenderei in considerazione l'idea di aumentare i grassi e ridurre un po' i carboidrati
questo sembra essere il punto debole per la maggior parte dei ragazzi
Hi Roiders!! The fat quota is currently at 0.80x kg, while the carbs are at 4xkg. I've noticed over the past 10 years that with high fats I tend to have less energy during wo
@Eddie_x benvenuto nella famiglia dievolutionary.org grazie per la condivisione

ora se hai problemi con gli estrogeni e2 ora dimentica l'hcg
Direi che se usi arimidex 500 mg di testosterone hai bisogno di almeno 0,5 mg di arimidex ED, non della dose bassa
ma puoi passare all'aromasina

nella tua dieta non è chiaro il motivo per cui così tanti carboidrati e poche proteine?
per favore pubblica sulla tua dieta cosa mangi, cosa mangi e quando
sull'allenamento, condividi gli esercizi reali che stai facendo con le serie di ripetizioni con i pesi
Se non registri ora ciò che mangi o ti alleni, apri NOTE sul telefono e inizia a registrarlo lì e incollalo qui. Molto facile.

e condividi alcune foto dei pasti
Vedo le tue foto, ma pubblica quelle mancanti dei tuoi steroidi
e foto del tuo allenamento, se puoi
Hello and thanks for the advice, I have some questions.
If I increase adex 0.5mg ED don't I have the risk of lowering the e2 level too much? Adex is not very suppressive like aromasin so I could, the important thing is to also get rid of this sweat during the night which creates a lot of discomfort for me.

I have this fear and I don't want to find it low, as I said above the experiences of those who tried were not good at all.
I have blood tests on Wednesday. If I increase it before knowing the values, won't I risk not understanding what to do? I know these may seem like banal questions, but it's my first experience and I'm trying to learn from your experiences too.

For proteins there are a total of 130 grams, therefore 1.4gr x Kg, do you consider them low and should you even raise them to 160?
Thanks again for the help!
'neat' meaning steps??
HI! Yes exactly, I mean steps, I remain stable at 10/11k per day
