Stepping Up My Cycle, Opinions?

Hey T-Nation!

I am a new member but I have been hugely invested in the forums here for years. So much information and help from others besides the occasional trolling. Anyway, I am planning a cycle to do in my future after I drop some more good ole LB’s. I already have a few of the products and am waiting on shipments.

My plan:
Test prop 10 mL = 10 shots @ 100 per… this was my main question along with anavar. Is it okay to front load prop for my test cyp cycle to jumpstart? Pin every 3 days
Test Cyp 500 weekly 1-12
Anavar 50 ED weeks 6-12 (open for changes since this will be a longer use of this than I have before)
I have a liver support as well as adex on hand if needed. With the past few cycles I’ve done, gyno or estrogen problems were not an issue. I did try it to battle bloat, only affected my gains before I stopped taking them.:pensive:

Post Cycle:
Clomid 4 weeks
HCG 5000 broken down 500 E3D
Starting week 8-12

I want to reduce majority of the bloating that I can, understanding that it comes along with the test. Also leaning away from overdoing it with carbs.

That being said here are my stats:
Height 6’4”
Weight 270
BF 16-17%
3+ years lifting, as well as (college football & nutrition classes)

Hopefully I can get some good intel from people who have experience a similar cycle. Appreciate everyone for the time they took to read my post.

I don’t see much need to frontload test, but the idea of mixing in prop at the beginning is interesting. It’s been done before, certainly, but I think it’s frowned upon because it makes e2 management tougher right out of the gate. But if you’ve got some experience and know how you react to higher doses of test then maybe you’ll be good.

You shouldn’t pin prop e3d, but again if it’s in conjunction with cyp maybe it smooths out a little. But only a little. What’s the main goal here? Just all-out mass?

Sorry for the delayed response.

My wording was pretty horrendous, I meant to use the prop in jumpstart that two week period. But I had heard to do it every 2 days up until the 3rd week. My ultimate goal is to drop down before I start the cycle so I can build size back up & lean out toward the end.

Thanks for the response. I had read something you linked on another post, using orals to bridge into a PCT. say I would start PCT week 14 and do 7-13 anavar or however… would that be harmful to recovery/pct?

Not harmful at all. You will be unwinding the testosterone at the end but still have another week of the anavar, so you’ll be keeping your strength up as you slowly dip down to zero test. And the anavar clears quickly so it won’t interfere with pct at all.
