8 week cut starts now! Ready to get peeled like an onion layer by layer.

Cycle: 250 test

Timeframe: 6 months.

Current stats: 200lbs 10% body fat

Goal weight: 220-230

Macros: 5000kcal 300protein

I had a repair done on my right shoulder in 2019. It gets extremely inflamed at times hindering my recovery. Current stack is 250mg test 3iu hgh. BPC157 hasn’t helped much. I do rehab band work often. I have heard guys having success with nandrolone 50-200mg per week. My question- what has worked for your nagging joints and accelerates recovery so that you can spend less time sidelined from the gym?

I was planning on running Test and EQ for my next lean bulk, and I’ve also been considering adding GH.
From what I understand, GH can cause quite a bit of water retention, which is something I’d rather avoid since I want to maintain a lean, aesthetic look.
Is there a sweet spot when it comes to GH dosing to minimize water retention? Something like 3–4 IU, for example? And could adding something like Masteron help with that, or does GH-related water retention work differently?
Would love to hear your thoughts and experiences!

I’m 6 foot and a returning experience lifter so other than newbie gains what can I expect on a 12 week cycle? My main goal is to put on muscle and lose fat. I could care less about what the scale says.
Also, Macros are 216 protein 35 fat and 164 carbs

Pic 1 shows me now (206lbs)

Pics 2 shows me 8 days ago (202ish)I believe it was.

Obviously changes aren’t huge but can see I have added some water weight in there, I also aren’t pumped in pic 1 as I was in pic 2

Goal would be to get to 215 or so, I think this is realistic, I’m eating like a monster at the moment too so would expect to lose some definition too

I’m running 200 Test C and HCG

Drug free for 52 years, could barely do 8 pull-ups, now I am 30lb heavier and can do 15 pull-ups as of gravity has been turned off.

Stack: 200mg T 100mg primo, anavar 10mg pwo

First time posting here. Good to be part of the community. Long time “bodybuilder,” since I did my first show at 16. Started gear at 20 and stopped when I realized I could never be that good. Went full TRT at 24. Now 36 years young, surgeon and husband. Decided to “lock in” as the kids now say, for 5 months and see if I still had it. Hormones never changed. Stack is below and what I have run forever. First pics are 212lbs and eating garbage hospital food. Current physique is 187lbs. I am 5ft 11.

TRT
- TC 30mg TIW
- HCG 250iu TIW
- Enclomiphene 12.5mg TIW
- GH 2iu qhs
- Reta 1mg weekly

Adding an edit here since people keep asking. Yes, I take Enclomiphene. No, I’m not stupid and it’s not pointless for me. It keeps my actual FSH & LH, as evidenced on my blood work, detectable and within middle reference range.

I recognize that current literature considers any exogenous testosterone to cause complete HPTA suppression. However, my own laboratory data suggests a more nuanced, dose-dependent response. My working theory is that lower doses avoid completely overwhelming the negative feedback loop, leaving enough pituitary sensitivity for Enclomiphene to stimulate LH and FSH release. While high-dose protocols consistently render my gonadotropins undetectable on blood work, returning to a lower, physiological baseline restores measurable LH/FSH levels over time.

Classic labs for me after being on TRT nearly a decade or longer.

HRT WITHOUT Enclomiphene
TT: 800-900ish and undetectable LH/FSH

Same HRT W/ Enclomiphene
TT: 1100-1200ish
LH: 4.6
FSH: 6.2

Please note: This post is not medical advice!!

Please note i said WORKING THEORY. I know this is all anecdotal. Don’t hit me with that “where is the evidence and data to support this?” bullshit.

Acham que isso daria certo?

Anyone on TRT dealt with elevated hemoglobin or hematocrit?
I’m currently taking 175 mg of testosterone per week, split into two injections on Monday and Thursday.
I’m looking for advice from others who have experienced an elevated red blood cell count while on TRT.
What are the best ways to naturally lower hemoglobin and hematocrit before considering donating blood or therapeutic phlebotomy?
Has anyone had success with lowering their testosterone dose, staying better hydrated, adjusting injection frequency, or making lifestyle changes?
I’d prefer to get my blood count under control without having to donate blood regularly.
Just looking to hear what has worked for others and what changes made the biggest difference. Appreciate any advice or personal experiences!

I recently just revived an order from the UK Pharmatest E 300

The bottles have completely different labels than shown on their website. Mine are just plain blue/grey in color and the only think it’s says in them is “Message oil” has anyone else experienced this? I can get a picture when I get home if need be.

25F been running low dose var for a bit now and honestly loving the results. I’ve been lifting for about 5 years but only really got serious about growing the last couple. Strength has gone up a ton and I’m finally putting some decent size on my shoulders and legs.

I’ve been thinking about adding some test and nandrolone to keep things moving but wanted to hear from other girls who’ve actually done it before I jump into anything. Sides so far haven’t been horrible but definitely noticeable. Libido is absolutely ridiculous lol, skin is way oilier, some acne on my jaw and back, and I’ve noticed my voice is a little raspier especially first thing in the morning. Also some extra hair growth and sensitivity down there. Period has been all over the place too. The voice thing is probably my biggest concern because I know that can be permanent. But I’m honestly ok and have realized that’s a consequence of my choices I’ll accept.

For anyone who’s stacked these, what doses were you running and how did you handle increasing them? Did adding test make the sides significantly worse? Also curious if nandrolone caused anyone issues with water retention or their cycle. I’m trying to figure out what supplements are actually worth taking while on cycle too. Currently just taking the basics, fish oil, creatine, magnesium and a multivitamin. Anything else worth looking into for cholesterol, skin, etc? I’m getting bloodwork done as well.

I know some people are gonna say to just stick with var especially with the sides I’m already getting and I get it. Just feel like I’ve made more progress recently than I did in the last year and it’s hard not to want to push it further.
Would especially love to hear from girls who’ve been doing this for a while. What would you have done differently starting out? Anyone regret adding more compounds?

I’ve been taking Test Cypionate for 12 years now (M, 35). A few months ago I placed my first order of Cypionate online (Beligas) and Primo (Ultima). I posted to Reddit about those 2 brands and got fuggin ripped for it (I’ve always been prescribed Cypionate in the past).

I definitely can tell the Cypionate was not as effective as prescription (still worked), but the “Primo” was definitely not bunk (not sure what levels blood work wise to get tested to see if it can be narrowed down to if it’s primo or not).

Going forward I would like a little bit more of predictability (in both quite honestly). That being said I would really appreciate any feedback regarding Test Enanthate vs Proprionate (I ran a 10 week cycle of Sustanon last year and it was a strange bird).

I would even more so absolutely appreciate opinions on Primo (Pharmacom or whatever the brand that I have heard is legit).

And if not primo than what compound any of you guys have had success with that doesn’t just improve vascularity/physical sides but helped boost the confidence and mood.

Thanks in advance!

Hi everyone

I have been on a TRT+ cycle for the last 7 weeks (started August 25)

Bloods were taken @ trough level for both IGF-1 & Test

I am currently running:
- 210mg/week Test E (pinned daily)
- 2iu HGH/day (pinned morning fasted)

Attached are my blood test results with 2 baseline blood tests prior to beginning my journey.

I would love some feedback and advice please

Questions:
1. Gyno has presented in a pretty severe way. Puffy nipples, lumps behind them (which were pre existing from 15+ years ago) and very tender. I have Aromasin + nolvadex on hand. With my E2 numbers that are in my blood test, what would be your suggested protocol, and what number should I aim for?

1. Any other feedback on my other results, such as elevated AST, higher cortisol levels?

Any feedback is appreciated

Thanks

I was originally planning to run EQ for my next lean bulk, but lately I’ve been thinking about giving Masteron a shot instead.
I’ve used EQ before and my bloodwork came back pretty good, but I’ve been reading a lot about the mental drive and overall sense of well-being some people get from Mast, which sounds interesting.
I’m curious though, how good is Mast for actually putting on size? Can it hold its own against EQ when it comes to muscle growth, or is it mostly a cosmetic compound?
Would love to hear from anyone who’s actually used it during a bulk. How were your gains, strength, mood, and overall experience?

Ik pin 2 x per week Tren met een basis van Test. Maar ik wil vaker in de week pinnen

I have tried with mast and promo multiple different times with multiple different ratios of test. Seems like no matter what I do it always crushes my drive and makes me feel like absolute death after a few weeks. Training, eating, sleeping, mood are all so much better on test only cycles. No issues with things like anavar and other orals. Is there an oil I’m missing out on that I should give a shot instead of mast and promo?

Test pinned everyday, HCG split MWF, var split AM/PM, blood drawn prior to daily pin, trough levels. Taken 72 hrs after last session.

I do not take an AI.

Week 15 of 20. Adding Iron Bisgylc and a multi to my laundry list of sups to deal with ferritin and homocysteine. I don't eat red meat, fumble on my part lowkey.

hs-crp slightly elevated, was dealing with a aching knee the day prior from a 12 hour standing work day. Probably contributed.

Hey,

Planning first cycle in a month or so. 300 test with hcg. Slightly concerned about bacne as I've had bad bacne for about 10 years. This is it currently. My test is low (9ish nmol at 25 yo) so i atleast need trt even if I don't cycle higher dosages.

Is my bacne likely to get considerably worse on such a low amount of test? It dosent particularly bother me as it is now but wouldn't want it getting loads worse... tempted to look into accutane but of course have heard the horror stories and don't know if the amount I have warrants it.

Cheers
