Question re-post... Seeking wisdom

New to the group / post and missed the cut-off to post on previous post regarding almost identical question about first cycle Test / Deca question. “startmeup” had a comment which I have referenced here about wanting info from previous poster that didn’t give any info. So, in regards to startmeup’s response earlier, I will go ahead and answer…

  1. What’s your lifting experience? On / off for several years. Serious a few years ago while contracting. At one point, dead-lifted 415. Never could get bench where i wanted. .

  2. What’s your current height/weight? Age? 52 years old. 5’ 4”. Approx 190’ish right now (will have to confirm).

  3. What are your goals? Drop weight to 175 - 180 then put on quality lean muscle mass up to around 200 + with obvious size increases… chest, arms, lats along with defined abs… will work legs too, dont worry. Lol.

  4. How many weeks in are you? Have not started anything yet aside from my current TRT, but as I’m learning, apparently I’m “cruising” at 200 mg week. Been on T for several years now. Got to figure out if my Doc will prescribe the Deca for me, or, where to get.

  5. How long are you planning your cycle to be? Again, from learning, I was planning on a short cycle, but I’m not 100% sure how short “short” should be to accomplish what I want, or if I need to consider additional cycles after the first.

  6. What are you planning to do at the end of your cycle (post cycle therapy? Blast and cruise? If I’m thinking correctly, I will go back to “cruising”??? And of course PCT and continue with the gym to try to maintain as much as possible.

In regards to the Peptides category tag, starting Reta to accomplish initial weight loss along with SS-31 and progress to CJC 1295 / Ipamorelin blend with MOTS-C.

Yes, my questions may be that of a “newbie”, but thats because I am. I m here to gain quality information and guidance, not a hard time.

Thank you all in advance.

Since this original post, I had done some more reading and was now also wondering about Primo… I like the aspects of it as a “long term”, but also like the “quick” aspect of the Deca.

I’m not planning on entering any competitions or anything like that. I just want to definitely put on quality size and build strength, then just work at maintaining.

First off, this is a little late in life to get serious about putting on significant muscle.

I cannot tell what you look like as regards to percent body fat, I would like you to be able to see major muscle group separation before you expand your addition of AAS.

200mg/wk of testosterone is very high for TRT, in fact that is the most testosterone I took when on a cycle. I suppose it is okay to stay there while you get your body fat to be able to see major muscle group separation.

I have no experience with Primobolin. I relied on Deca as my favorite injectable anabolic. I never took more than 200mg/wk.

The common view of Deca has significantly changed since I used it. I never experienced what the common thought is, but I always used an oral anabolic with all my AAS cycles. Maybe that is the difference.

All my cycles were either 8 or 12 weeks.

If you will always be on “TRT” there no benefit in doing a PCT.

Now ask questions that you would like my opinion. And let’s build on the above comments.

I do not think 200+ pounds with abs is realistic at 5’4” and 52 years old.
