First Time Starting a Cycle. Any Suggestions?

Why would I even need you to bring up studies when your level of comprehension leads you to make statements like these? You are not qualified. Shut up.

Yeah, he was planning on running arimidex with 250mg possible 500mg test per week…

10mg nolva a day will absolutely take care of all estro related problems from such a small dose.

There is NO POINT in getting bloodwork done to check your estro levels on 250mg of test and 10mg of nolva daily. This is pretty basic shit.

I told him a better way he could utilize blood tests to be safer, some people hear about people getting bloods and mis understand the actual relevant use… unless you are on something a lot more substantial, bloods would be much more useful before an after the cycle to ensure proper recovery of t levels and normalization of things like lipids post cycle.

I don’t think you are very educated on these subjects…

Anyways i’m not into getting in another 100 post back and fourth argument with you…

All my advice has been appreciated, agreed with, and thanked for on this forum regarding the pharma section, you are the ONE person that questions it. Interesting…

Lets agree to disagree again okay? We are rudely blowing up somebody elses thread here.

Have some decency and lets leave it at this please. I do not wish to continue this conversation!

You are using the fact that noobs who do not know anything about these drugs agreed with and thanked you as proof of the accuracy of your advice? Don’t be absurd.

Stop giving advice. Go post in other sections where there will be minimal harm done if people follow what you have written. Don’t give advice on steroids.

AAS is the subject that I am MOST qualified to give advice on… My advice has stopped numerous people from either ruining there cycles or using too much gear.

I’ve given advice in almost every recent pharma thread, and will continue to do so, which is a great benefit for the community.

I’m giving people tried and true, scientifically proven methods and protocols for running AAS safely and effectively.

We had a bad argument, and you don’t like me. That’s fine. The way you’re going about attacking me is immature and pathetic. You are only embarrassing yourself.

Now please, lets stop this immature conversation! The OP doesn’t want to read your angry drivel, he want’s proper advice.

Actually I kinda feel like I’ve been advocating tamoxifen and not arimidex on cycle since it’s what I do in my medical practice. But I definitely appreciate someone else here doing it too.

No worries man, just trying to steer people in the right direction. You have your own practice? Are you a trt doctor? There are a few threads of people looking for opinions from a TRT doctor.

Congrats on having your own practice though, that’s great!

I don’t understand all the arimidex use, I know a lot of pros use(d) strictly arimidex and have had some MAJOR health problems from it! Seems like arimidex can cause worse long term problems than a lot of steroids!

Yep I run a trt clinic in Ohio and I’m also an endocrinologist. With almost 2k patients less than 5% use an AI and those are either over 65 or have impaired liver function. No damn AI is needed. Use tamoxifen. If you read over my old posts you can virtually see me screaming at people who think e w needs to be in normal range when their test is elevated. It’s madness.

I use primarily 300 mg test max myself. And I’m a pretty big boy. The dosages and AI use I see on here are insane. Just plain stupid.

I agree 100% unless we are talking about some serious high level dosages.

It’s nice to have someone else who actually is educated (definitely more so than me) about the advice they are giving. I have no formal education about this stuff, but have done a lot of research and have a lot of ā€œin the fieldā€ experience, with a lot of mistakes that I have learned from.

Congrats on running a TRT clinic, IMO that’s some noble work! Not enough docs understand this kind of thing properly, let alone contribute there knowledge to forums for people to learn from free of charge!

hahaha nice edit in your last post! That’s why I advised this guy not to get bloods and check his E mid cycle, with 250-500mg test just take the nolva and forget about it… Not enough people are doing proper research on estrogen. They know every effect of every steroid and exactly how each steroid will benefit the body, but they don’t know the role estrogen plays and how it can positively and negatively effect them on cycle.
It sure was a pain for me to find a doc to monitor my non prescription AAS use and make sure that my health is in check while use AAS with the blasting and cruising method, which is basically normal cycling but instead of pct then coming off, I run trt style (or a bit higher) test dosages between cycles.

Haha indeed bro. Oh you mean estrogen matters? Well I guess if you refer to mood, cardiovascular health, nitric oxide production, immune system, cholesterol, serotonin production, cellular protection, libido, and yes - muscle growth. Well besides that it’s not important.

I posred a video earlier from Eric serrano ( one of my good friends) talking to John meadows about ideally keeping e2 around 70 with trt patients.

I definitely push my dosages higher than you do, but I have plans to compete and take this thing as far as I can in the future, it is my passion and will be my career.

When I Say it will be my career, I’m not implying I Will be one of the few bodybuilders to make it big in the world (although that is my ideal goal), I mean that I will end up involved in training/coaching/supplement industry/promotion or something else in the industry. I live and breath this life and love it!

I’m currently cutting on 200mg test E, and am planning a bulk with 500mg test and 900mg EQ once I hit 8% BF.

I did a lot of AAS and got to a pretty good size (just under 230 at 11%) in the past, but I REALLY abused AAS with crazy doses to get there, and didn’t have diet or training dialed in. After a 1.5 year break from AAS AND the gym for personal reasons and losing everything I gained, I’m starting over and doing things MUCH better this time around.

I’m currently 197 and about 11%bf. Tren obviously is the nectar of the gods for someone who has big ambitions in this sport, but I am REALLY trying to hold off from tren as long as I Can and build my physique without it, so I Can really take it to the next level when I Start using it!

I am a BIG fan of high dosing EQ, but when you take into account the ester weight, it’s not quite the high dosage it seems. It’s the only steroid I Would advocate running in high dosages, besides primo.

I don’t plan on pushing my test past 500/600 until I get past the local competition level!

Yeah, I think a lot of the AI pushing is really just a big money grab! I Was hesitant about that shit from the first moment I heard of it! While AI’s definitely have theyre place in bodybuilding, it’s not quite the place people think they do!

I have heard of guys using LETRO with moderate dosed cycles…absolutely mind blowing. On a another forums we had a few guys who had COMPLETELY crashed there estrogen due simply not having bothered to learn about how it works, and taking the first advice that gets posted on there thread.

As I said, you are a very dishonest kid. Show me the ā€œargumentsā€ other than me telling you to back up your statements with a simple quote from within the same thread.

I do not think I have been unreasonable with you given what you have already written.

PYea I don’t want to get involved between you two. I just like advising people use tamoxifen and not arimidex. Cheers. Lol.

Here we go again, I thought we buried this issue?

I already explained to you that yes, it is true I have an unsavory history, a bad child hood, previous drug problems, spent time in jail, but the other points in your post are not true and have been explained to you NUMEROUS times.

The fact that I have that kind of history does not play any part in my knowledge or experience to due with AAS.

The fact you are still posting these quotes in numerous threads is pathetic, and I think you really have some issues here.

I have asked you numerous times to simply not post to me. Your posts are antagonistic and immature to say the least. I have no wish to argue with you, and would like to just agree to disagree. I am not into having arguments on forums

I don’t blame you man, I apologize for bringing that kind of toxic posting to this thread…

I’ll pursue a conversation with you elsewhere :slight_smile:

This is not the first time this guy has commented where I am having a conversation and scared away the people I am conversing with, turning the thread into a toxic mess.

Please don’t judge me based on these exchanges, I really do not wish to take part in them, not the kind of guy I am!

Oh I don’t judge anyone. Really what’s between two people is between two people. I have a great practice, an amazing wife and two amazing little girls. I could care less what the majority of people on here say as I’m just trying to help people where and how I can.

That’s the same attitude I try and have, I am really ashamed that at some points I have insulted this guy back, not a lot of people manage to get to me like that.

My fiancĆ© and I have a beautiful little girl as well :slight_smile: she’s three. How old are yours?
