First Cycle, Questions from a Newbie

Hi guys

Started my first cycle and I am doing 300mg of test and 300mg of deca a week, been doing for about a month now and strength is starting to grow but have been finding i am constantly hot, is this normal? I am finding I am losing my temper a lot more than usual but that could be cause I have a three year old who is constantly pushing the boundaries and a 5 month old that doesnt sleep so could be that as well.

Also wanted to know what is the typical length of a first cycle most people do? I was planning on doing 10 weeks but wasnt sure if I should do it longer or keep it to 10 weeks? Also should I increase the amount I am injecting? im spliting the injections by half twice a week if that makes a difference

Thanks for any advice

This isn’t a dose, this is a volume. What is your dose? Should be in (mg).

How’s your dick holding up?

Yeah, no. It’s probably the kids, not the steroids your slamming into your body.

Why are you a month in and just now asking this?

Do more research before injecting shit into your body.

These are my opinions:

  1. If you cannot control your temper, DO NOT take AAS.
  2. I would do 8 week cycles
  3. I suppose you are taking 200mg/wk of both testosterone and Deca. That is probably as good a first cycle as any. You shouldn’t take any more.

Im not losing my temper at them, just was seeing if this could be a reason or just lack of sleep at the moment as the little one is constantly sick and isnt sleeping.

why am i asking now? as i was going to do it for 10 weeks but was just seeing what other people do.
the dose is 300mg per week
Dick is fine if anything its doing the opposite of deca dick, guessing the test is the reason behind it.

because I am trying to add some size, cant help the lack of sleep at the moment with kids, just a part of life

Temper is not an issue its just I feel like im not as cool headed as I usually am, was just seeing if other people have felt this way or is it the lack of sleep getting to me.
8 week cycle is that enough time for it to work properly?
I had a look and its 300mg per week, is that too much do you think?
I do have a mate who is helping me with it all who has been doing for a long time but just getting more than one opinion on this as its better to have more information than not enough I suppose, cheers mate

How long did you intend to be off cycle?

Exactly how much testosterone are you taking per week?
Exactly how much Deca are you taking per week?

300mg total AAS is not too much, IMO.

I was actually just seeing how this went and was going to see if I was going to do it again, I am 40 years old and been training for over 10 years so thought I would give it a try and see if it worked for me.
Test and deca both 300mg per week

You didn’t say how long you intended to be off cycle.

You stated that you made some strength gains. More than likely you will do another cycle.

But I would drop the Deca to 200mg/wk.

I am not sure if i was doing another cycle, just seeing how I went with this one. If I get some really good results I may do another one just not too sure at the moment.
Okay thanks about the deca

Why? Is what you’re taking now not working anymore?

well after a month I have seen my strength go up a little bit but not sure how much it should be going up? I have read that it takes a few weeks for it to start working so will see how it goes for the next few weeks and go from there, just wasnt sure if what im doing is enough to get results straight away

IMO, you would start seeing results in about 10 days if you were taking orals, where Dianabol or Anadrol would be most effective. (You don’t need large doses for results. Dianabol 20mg/day is enough)

I don’t know about the delay time for testosterone and Deca. I never did a cycle without orals.

I did consider Dianabol but was advised against it from a few of my mates who do cycles regularly but going on this platform seems to be a lot of guys who take them. Good thing about these types of platforms is getting information for all types of people. You havent had any issues with taking Dbols?

Please note that I only used pharmaceutical grade AAS. I never took more than 20mg/day of Dianabol. Usually cycles 8 weeks “on” and 6 to 8 weeks “off”. I did this for nearly 3 decades.

I did use numerous different AAS throughout the years.

Takes about 3-4 weeks before you notice much. If you don’t have any ED or terrible emotional issues then it’s prob an adequate beginner cycle.

No. You said you are losing your temper with your babies.

who is most? you will find 8,12 or 16 weeks depending on who you ask and where you look.

everything takes time. when progress stalls, look at diet and training first, then PEDs

When progress stalls check EVERYTHING!
