Approved Log My Sustanon Cycle Log

[DCB82]

I am about 7 weeks into my second blast. My normal TRT dose is Test Cyp 200mg/week split into two doses(M&F). My first blast was Test E at 500mg/week split into two doses. Bloodwork all was normal with that for 16 weeks with no AI. My estrogen, prolactin, and PSA were all within normal ranges.
The current cycle is Sustanon 350, dosing three times per week for a total of 700mg per week. Initially coach had me taking Arimidex at 0.5mg on Mondays and Fridays for a total of 1mg each week. I started feeling really bad about two to three weeks into this with flu like symptoms, lethargy, chills, etc…. I was fairly certain it was crashed E2, so I cut the dose back to 0.25mg on Monday and Fridays.
Had bloods ran and Estrogen was <2.5 with a normal range of 8-35.

I have since cut the dose of Arimidex back to 0.25 per week for the last week and a half. Feeling better so I think Estrogen is coming back up. I’m just not sure what, if any Arimidex I need to run now. Especially since I was able to run 500mg test last blast with zero sides.

My current stats are 6’3” and 220lbs at 12% body fat per dexa scan.
Diet is around 3500 calories per day and workout is 2on/1off split and currently doing push,pull,arm, leg and doing one super heavy set per excercise. Have about 5 excercise per body part.

I will attach current pics, and see if you guys think I have any gyno or if everything looks good. I do occasionally have some tingling in my pecs from time to time but no puffy or itchy nipples.
Thanks!

Keep an eye on that gyno especially if you're prone
It doesn't hurt to just run a trt dose of testosterone and no more

You look great, welcome to EVO family

You have tamoxifen on hand?

 

[BodyMonster34]

bro you look good if you ask me
you too hard on yourself I don't see any gyno but i no doctor

 

[Quadsweep]

can't wait to see your log get it going as soon as possible
you got a great base to work with but we have to keep you safe the whole way through

 

[JasonPriest]

if you're sensitive to estrogen you can always drop testosterone entirely
otherwise make sure you're using aromasin

 

[Austin316]

you definitely need to get a log going
you don't want to be left hanging and relying on a person giving you bad advice

 

[sambee38]

adex is a fine option
but aromasin is a superior AI
and letro is one you should have on hand

 

[BookerTNY]

your pictures don't look like you have issues with gynecomastia
but that can change that's why a log is crucial

 

[Arabian]

there is no requirement to use testosterone if you're estrogen prone
why don't you avoid it and use some of the DHT compounds

 

[DCB82]

Thanks guys! I guess I am prone to being paranoid. I dropped the AI entirely as of 4 days ago since my estrogen is showing crashed according to my bloodwork. I am planning to lower the sustanon to 500-525mg per week. I will dose it 0.5ml three times per week per recommendation here. That would put me at 525mg total each week.
Was thinking no AI on that dose for now, since I last ran 500mg/wk with no sides and no high estrogen or prolactin from bloodwork back in January, when I was finishing that blast.

 

[Mobster]

When I use sus it's less than 700mg on it's own

 

[DCB82]

When I use sus it's less than 700mg on it's own

That’s the only compound I am using. Just thinking I need to lower the dose.

@DCB82 sustanon is good around 500mgs/week split dose

You're not the only one thats prone to being paranoid we all have that feeling with cycles.
With crashed E2 cutting Ai is the best course either way.
I would go with 500mgs sustanon /week without Ai for now
but you should add primobolan light dose around week 3 in, can you do that?

also how is the training today? whats the plan?

 

[Masonic Bodybuilder]

Really looking forward to following this log. This just shows how important blood work is. Everyone will have different AI requirements based on their test dose.

 

[DCB82]

Today I pinned 0.5ml and will not take the AI until I get bloods redone in about 2-3 weeks.
Today’s strength was in the gutter big time. Prob due in part to not resting well last night and going to gym early in morning vs after lunch as usually do.
Also could be the estrogen is still low. I remember last blast I felt like Superman and this blast just hasn’t had near the feeling like that. Probably due to me crashing e2 right off the bat?
How long does that normally take to come back up?

e2 crashing can have an effect and it will go back up about week 2 so around 14 days.

But your food is a real issue remember, if your dietary intake it not good it will affect energy levels.
what did you eat the whole day? @DCB82
