A few weeks ago I finished up my second cycle of 600mg test e for 15 weeks. Since then I have been cruising on 150mg and have been prepping for a third cycle. I was planning on kickstarting a 500mg test e cycle with 4 weeks of an oral. I ended up choosing superdrol at 10-20 mg and I have tudca, cardarine and arimidex on hand. After looking into it more I realized that superdrol may be too advanced for a third cycle, I think I can run it safely at a low dose with all the cycle support but I’d like to see what others think. My goals are to eat at maintenance, not focused on gaining extreme mass, more so moderate mass and strength.
If you’re not looking for mass then hold off on the superdrol for now. It’s kind of made for putting on a ton of size in a short time. No need to tax your liver that much for a very temporary look. Superdrol is basically what you take if you’re a model and need to look good in a pair of board shorts five weeks from now. The glycogen storage is comedic. You look so much bigger while on. But it’s gone within two weeks of getting off. It’s excellent for short term strength, so if you were a power lifter you’d have some use for it. But for your goals honestly either no oral or anavar are the best route.
I’m interested in this thread because I have very similar goals in mind. I finished my first cycle in May (500mg test C/wk) and am also looking at something very moderate. Currently I’m running TRT at 160mg/wk. Honestly I’m making humble but steady progress on TRT alone so I’ll be milking that for the next couple of months surely. When I’m ready to start my second cycle which will be somewhere around springtime, I’m planning on:
400-500mg test c /wk for 14 weeks
10-20mg dbol week 1-4 and 10-20mg week 8-14
Proviron 50mg (25mg 2x/day) wk 1-14
I know dbol is mostly used exclusively for bulking and adding mass at doses from 30-50mg while eating at a large caloric surplus. However, if I’m not mistaken, @iron_yuppie used smaller doses in the 10-20 mg range while maintaining or even cutting and has done so successfully without gaining much water weight while also gaining in strength and muscle mass. Please correct me if I’m wrong.
I’d like to try using the dbol in the same manner, in smaller doses, in a slight caloric surplus. Mainly I’m looking for joint relief, increase in muscle mass and an increase in well-being and enhanced mood.
I’ll be using the proviron mainly as a libido and mood enhancer as this is something I don’t unfortunately get from increasing my test dosage alone. The anecdotal antidepressant effect would also be welcomed since I have a lot of shit on my plate currently and could use a ‘lift’ on the days when I feel down. The increase in free testosterone is another plus. Actually, I just took my first 25mg Proviron pill this morning and will continue to use it for a few months at a dose of 50mg/day just to see how I react to it before starting my cycle and adding in the dbol. In case I have any adverse reactions it’ll be easier to identify the root cause.
As proviron is not liver toxic (so I’ve read), I’m not taking extra precautions except avoiding alcohol and taking my daily dose of milk thistle. I’ll be adding something stronger (TUDCA) when I start the dbol. After the cycle I’ll go back to my TRT dose and the Proviron if I find it to be useful.
Anyways, that’s my plan to achieve the same goals that the OP outlined. I’ll probably have to check my lipids in a month or two while on Proviron. My latest blood test said they were in range.
Excited to see how that works out for you, I’m going to front load my superdrol ans just watching al my bio markers carefully. I’ll report on how my cycle goes and whether or not I keep the actual mass.
