Hello, as the title states, I'm considering doing a steroid cycle and just wanted some feedback! It would be my first steroid cycle, (I've done SARMS before). I've read through a few threads and have spoken to people in my gym about their first cycles/recommendations. I've had a few say tame tren lol, which I wouldn't do as a first cycle at all. However, people have also said don't waste a first cycle on test only. So I just wanted some input on what I have planned, how you would adjust the dosages, etc.
I'm a 29 year old male, and currently weigh about 185 pounds. I bulked up to 207 lbs but got into an accident that caused me to rupture 4 discs in my spine. The injury sidelined me for months and it really messed up my sciatic nerve, which made it so I couldn't even feel my left leg at moments for a few weeks, which kept me on bed rest. I eventually got into walking and I did PT and worked with spine specialists, and eventually got cleared back for work, and in turn, back to the gym, as long as I switched to a lighter weight program that focused more on reps and hypertrophy. My first day back in the gym I was at 173 lbs but it felt so good seeing the gym bro's and regulars again. It really took me changing my workout around in order to find out what exercises agitated my back more. After some time, I finally found a program and have stuck on it for about 10 months. I'm sitting at 185 right now, was working out for about 10 years before the injury, although I was also doing MMA for a long time so had to do mostly weight cuts in order to stay at a weight range, which was usually 145-155. For the last 4 years I actually stopped the MMA and focused on weight gain and strength, as I transitioned to a job as a CO in a jail. I've gotten interested in taking a cycle but want to go about it the correct way. I originally considered doing an 8 week test only cycle, and a lot of posts said that was too short of a cycle. I extended it to 12, but saw threads where people were saying don't waste a cycle on just test.
I saw a thread where people recommended kickstarting with TBOL and ending with anavar but I feel like orals throughout the cycle would do more damage and put me at risk.
After more and more research, I think I've settled on a 12 week test cycle where I go about 500 cal surplus for about 8 weeks, and finishing it with anavar at either maintenance or a slight deficit to shred down. I'd follow the proper PCT but possibly add Cardarine and Ostarine during the PCT in order to keep as many gains and limit any weight gain coming off cycle. If you guys could give any thoughts that would be great. Thank you so much!
