Hello I’m male 33 years old. I used to workout quite a bit when I was serving a sentence in prison I was able to get myself pretty strong from lifting twice a day. It’s been about 5 years now since I worked out like that and now I feel like I’m old and can’t gain like I used to. I’m trying to find out what kind of cycle I should start out on, I see all these links and stuff products but I honestly have no idea how to find what I should do what amount is right how long to do it and so on. If anyone is willing to give me some advice so I can start getting big it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
First of all
@MackMayne welcome to EVO! You're in the right place and on the right forum because the rest of them are shit and don't compare to EVO.
There's nothing wrong with you wanting to cycle, nothing at all. However, we don't recommend here to start a cycle when you're starting training (basically you're starting again, not 'starting over', but starting again) and it's best you get your natural strength levels and cardio near your max natural limit and then we can dial you in with a cycle.
How do we do that? On here we use personal logs. Like a daily journal where you post everything you're eating, doing, training, sleeping, including all your supplements. We need to get that all in check first before adding in powerful PED steroids to get you enhanced. Does that make sense? If you're serious about this it should make sense and keep in mind I'm not saying you shouldn't run a good cycle to get yourself back in shape it just would be a bit of a waste right now and might backfire if your BF% is too high at the moment.
I'll cut and paste my own log template instructions to give you an idea on how to log. You can also take a look at mine here:

Specifically take a look since end of August, beginning of September and also the last 10 pages and you'll see the detail involved if you wanna go allin with it. It paid me back 100 fold for doing this.
Welcome brother. I hope you decide to log and post pics of yourself so we can see where you're at.
Also, I've been to prison and even spent time in the SHU and it's definitely an adrenaline rush having to have eyes on the back of your head and controlling your smiles and cries ALL the time. Now... I just smile a lot and reserve the aggression for the gym or the lucky few who deserve to be honoured with my wrath if deserved.
HOW and WHY TO LOG?
Why is a Log Journal important?
Accountability, pride, and consistency all which lead to RESULTS!
Authoring a log will actually help you way more than just dropping random updates. When you lay it all out week by week you start to see patterns in your body that you won’t catch otherwise.
Other guys here run logs all the time and there’s no privacy issue, nobody is asking for your name or anything personal, it is just training, diet, and how the compound feels.
The feedback you get is also way better because people can follow along and spot things you might miss. It also helps the next guy who is thinking about running the same compound so you are giving back while you learn.
Even if you think you might not stick with it, just starting the log makes it easier to come back and add quick notes. That way you get more out of what you are running instead of keeping it all in your head.
To really guide you we need more info from you:
Please share your diet, training, cardio, sleep, supplements etc log with us in a NEW thread using a full log journal so our guidance is based on facts you provide.
It will take 15-20 minutes max.
We have 100's of years of experience between us, so you need to post a LOG Journal with your stats (weight, height, age, years training, cycle history) diet, training, cardio, supplement, sleep details. 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.
Please post a Log Journal ASAP for us

Do you still want to have kids? I recommend becoming as learned as possible on steroids in this order:
PCT (after steroid usage how can you come off in a healthy way to get your natural test and hormones back up and running)
Diet (we have to see you have this dialed in with macros and calories)
Training (we need to make sure you're training is consistent and proper first and have established a good base of strength/cardio)
Steroids (then, if you trust this forum which you should, we will get you squared away for an 8-week trial run to assist)
What are your supplements?
what digestive supps you use?
digestive enzymes?
multis?
probiotics?
psyllium husk?
