Have been off my regimen for 2+ years. Sitting at:
Age 40
Weight 220
Height 6’0
Sitting at a decent amount of body fat. Eating clean for about 1 week to get some fat shed.
My friend is wanting me to get back in the gym.
Still stocked with my TRT Test E / Test C / HCG and Anastrozole. I’m thinking about diving back into running it all.
I’m taking my labs tomorrow the following:
CBC
CMP
Lipids
PSA
Testosterone - Total and Free
Thyroid Panel with TSH
Estradiol
IGF-1
I know the labs are important. My colleague whom is a monster literally is running a crazy cycle here.
But I have access to whatever I may need such as Deca/DBol/ Tren A or E/ Masteron etc.
Looking to drop down hard on BF and sticking to a good clean eating regimen as stated about. Would it make sense to stack anything extra with my Test E / C?
I’m open to it can stick to a clean eating refining but figured while I have some mass on me allow my body to shed it with a little help from the AAS.
I don’t tend to have any sides but wanted some anecdotal input if I may. My previous user account I can not access so started the new profile. It’s been a while. Probably 13 years :).
Thoughts are considered and appreciated. Protocols are important.
@Andrewgen_Receptors it is starting to adjust and I agree with you. I can wait out a month should it make sense. When I go clean I do stay on point with it.
Is there any thought to the other compounds to stack with it to help shed a little once I am there?
I have used Tren , Winstrol and Deca previously with no side effects.
Just feel a little new again without any sold point to jump off of now.
Masteron I have reviewed but not used as of yet.
Everything is at my disposal. As you can imagine everything that is a prescription (Test, Deca) is had by the others are the usual suspects.
Since you’re asking my opinion, I don’t think taking other compounds for the sake of leaning out makese a lot of sense when it can be done at a lower risk. Even adding stuff like Var and Clen only increase weight loss by like 10%… not worth it IMO.
I tend to lean towards the least compounds to produce the effect you want, and at the lowest dose that works - but I don’t do “steroids”, only TRT so
Are you consistent in the gym? Have your weights (strength) plateaued?
If no on either of those questions, I would stay off and eat clean until both questions are answered yes.
I liked two anabolics (one oral and one injectable) along with 200mg/wk testosterone where the total AAS/wk was between 350 and 700mg/wk. I would also start on the lower side of AAS/wk, eventually getting to 600mg/wk a couple years down the road.
(I am assuming that you know how to train effectively to put on muscle mass.)
Considering muscle memory seems to be a valid theory, and using AAS seems to amplify muscle memory effects, I’d say just cut and lose fat and muscle get as lean as you want, then use just a bit of AAS with a caloric surplus, and in a few weeks you will be leaner and bigger than if you used the same amount of drugs to cut. Plus on TRT, the ratio of fat to muscle lost on a cut is more favorable anyways.
If one is looking to step on stage, that goes out the window. But for most of us here, cutting on TRT, then using a light, short duration blast after the cut I think is better.
For me, unless I want to blast a gram of Tren, I am likely not gaining muscle on a cut. I might maintain very close to all the muscle over a 12 week slow cut with AAS. Or I can do a faster cut on TRT, lose some muscle, then run like 4 weeks of Tbol with my TRT and have the muscle I had at the start of the cut, but without the fat.
Yeah, I’ll look a bit worse during the cut. I am okay with that considering it is healthier.
In my experience, whether cutting or bulking, Diet is obviously the most important thing. Here’s what I use for my cut: HGH (2-4 iu’s daily), Test Cyp (400-500 mg a week), Anavar (50 mg a day), Clen (20 mg 20 minutes before working out), and then adex every time I inject. It’s pretty simple, Tren, deca, etc. are all great but my cuts usually last 4-6 months and I would only use tren, deca, mast, etc. for eight weeks at a time.
