I could give you a rough outline for a format that seems to be popular here:
Run h-drol at 75-100mg - below 75mg seems to yield little no to results going on reports. It can be run higher as long as its under 6 weeks as its relatively easy on the liver vs. other methyls. Keep the liver supps up though!
Run h-drol for 6 weeks… people seem to report back that it takes a while for h-drol to kick in. Some people have suggested using another methyl (preferably a type 1 - h-drol is a type 2) to kick start the cycle.
You will likely need another bottle of h-drol.
Up nolva dose to 40/40/20/20… 40/40/20/10… or something similar. OTC test boosters and similar products are like a drop in the ocean during your PCT… perhaps delay them till mid PCT or save till after. It certainly wouldn’t hurt to use your suggested product but Tribulus containing compounds seem to be very popular.
Also as far as support supps go - Im quite fond of CEL’s Cycle Assist… but thats just me. One tub will last you about 4 weeks.
No AI required.
A couple of suggested cycles:
Week 0: cycle assist max dose
Week 1: h-drol 75-100mg, cycle assist max dose
Week 2: h-drol 75-100mg, cycle assist max dose
Week 3: h-drol 75-100mg, cycle assist max dose
Week 4: h-drol 75-100mg, cycle assist max dose
Week 5: h-drol 75-100mg, cycle assist max dose
Week 6: h-drol 75-100mg, cycle assist max dose
Week 7: nolva 40mg, cycle assist max dose
Week 8: nolva 40mg, generic liver protection supp
Week 9: nolva 20mg, generic liver protection supp, herbal test booster
Week 10: nolva 20mg, generic liver protection supp, herbal test booster
Week 11: herbal test booster
Week 12: herbal test booster
If you can get hold of a bottle of havoc you could run the following (although it will be harder on the liver… providing you don’t abuse your liver on a regular bassis and keep an eye on your health Westclock seems to think that this should be just fine… it IS running two methyls but they are both comparitively weak on the liver). the type 1/type 2 synergy should liven things up and kick start the gains.
Week 0: cycle assist max dose
Week 1: h-drol 75mg, havoc 30mg, cycle assist max dose
Week 2: h-drol 75mg, havoc 30mg, cycle assist max dose
Week 3: h-drol 75mg, havoc 30mg, cycle assist max dose
Week 4: h-drol 75mg, havoc 30mg, cycle assist max dose
Week 5: h-drol 75-100mg, cycle assist max dose
Week 6: h-drol 75-100mg, cycle assist max dose
Week 7: nolva 40mg, cycle assist max dose
Week 8: nolva 40mg, generic liver protection supp
Week 9: nolva 20mg, generic liver protection supp, herbal test booster
Week 10: nolva 20mg, generic liver protection supp, herbal test booster
Week 11: herbal test booster
Week 12: herbal test booster
But these are all just suggestions I have picked up from listening in on the board for a while - make up your own mind =] [/quote]
thanks for the cycle help although i think a h-drol and havoc stack might be a little much for my first cycle. i like the first cycle of h-drol although i think im only going to go up to about 75mg for three weeks. 100mg seems to be a lot and i have been reading that 75mg is a sweet spot for h-drol. also you suggest using activate extreme in mid pct and not right away. Also 20/20/10/10 dosing for nolva would work rather well for this cycle no?

Try to avoid coming onto a forum simply wanting approval of your current idea - what I suggested above is pretty much a summary of what you will get on this forum from its more respected members with regards to suggestions to a h-drol cycle.
I have heard a whole bunch of reports from people who ran between 50-75mg for 5 weeks or so and said they felt it did NOTHING for them… This comes from people of varying experience/age.
I would say 75mg at 6 weeks would be the MINIMUM I would run for a h-drol cycle - its meant to be a fairly weak compound.
A lot of people have reported it feels slow to kick in… there should be some recomp effects going on from the word go… very slow and steady… but strength gains don’t seem to appear (from reviews) till about 3-5 weeks in… Hence the suggestion of using a kick start. This is all optional of course.
I would suggest running the full dose nolva at 40/40/20/20… nothing worse then a half assed recovery and it seems to be a standard dosing suggested here (and some other boards).
One thing to take in mind when you’re throwing in you’re natural test boosters and the such in PCT… I know on a lot of boards they tell you certain things are CRITICAL with various OTC herbal products and the such… but notice that despite Biotest (who own this board) having two natural test boosters (including the very potent Alpha Male…) you rarely see them suggested in PCT’s here.
Its not because the products are rubbish… its because as someone has put here before… its like “taking a butter knife into a gunfight”. They CAN help… and can certainly boost libido… but Nolva will do the real work.
But again… everything I have learnt could be rubbish! Some more input will be good![/quote]
I see where your coming from and i have read a lot that 75mg-100mg is the sweet spot for h-drol but the only thing i dont understand is why run nolva at 40/40/20/20. wouldnt i want to tapper it down to 10mg instead of dropping it off at 20mg? im just asking as a question only because every other log i have read and other pcts i have looked at seem to run nolva at 20/20/10/10. once again just a question not questioning your logic or knowledge.

I am going to be honest here (and I wish more internet pseudo-“gurus” would be!) and admit that I don’t know. Its a protocol that has been used for a long time and hasn’t failed anyone I know of yet!
Remember its not just a case of dodging visible gyno… your hormones could be borked for a long time with an incomplete recovery!
The 40/40/20/20 most likely arose from two things: The need for a larger dose of nolva + the fact that nolva typically comes in 20mg tablets.
I have seen some people cut it down to 40/40/20… no reason why you couldn’t do a 40/30/20/10 or 40/40/20/10 if you really feel the need to taper off.
If I am honest you will be better off hoping some of the regulars pop in here.
Try to avoid calling people “bro” on here - they don’t like it so much and treading on toes is not a good way to receive help.
Again you might want to wait till you are a little older…
