Hi all! Looking for a bulking stack after my cutting and pct. I was suggested to stack all this 3 but seems like i better replace EQ with Deca. What do you think and what is the right dose for this 3?
PS : I am 30 - I’ve done 2 cutting cycles. 5’11 177lbs.
Have you tried food yet?
Yes, I’ve overdosed that in the past so lost 18lbs fat in the cutting process so now looking to bulk
Okay right, I’m saying your stats indicate a need for food far more than a need for gear.
Adding gear to shit training and nutrition just band aids the problem.
You’re not doing anything other than discouraging and thats the last thing i need here. Please stop
Don’t take offense but he’s right. What other advice can he offer based on the stats you presented? You didn’t share your bodyfat percentage, no pic, no training protocol, diet, no numbers on your lifts…not even the doses you are thinking of taking.
You can bulk on whatever AAS of your choosing. It depends on your food intake. If you are asking what would be optimal for you in particular, how would we possibly know? What answer to your original post are you looking for?

If I trained at the same time and place as you I could give you some advice based on my experiences. Like Rusty Hammer said we need a lot more detailed information.
That said, you offered
When I was an inch taller and about 180lbs (22 years old) I began using AAS. I ran 10mg/day of Dianabol for 8 weeks and got off for 6 to 8 weeks. Those times I didn’t try to bulk, but ate close to 300mg of protein a day and non-processed carbohydrates. In other words, I ate clean. I would cut for contests. I did that for 6 years, getting to about 200lbs and lean enough to not look bad on stage. And I competed in powerlifting during the last two years of that 6 year period. I was not weak. I wonder how you would rate your strength right now.
Give me more information and I will offer some more ideas based on my experiences. I have a feeling my AAS doses might seem low to you.

Hmmm… the first the you need is to provide more information as @rusty_hammer stated. The LAST thing you need is bad advice.

Discouraging you from damaging your body for gains you could be making for free?
I must be a terrible person.

I get to point but we’re here to help each other l, not discourage. These questions can simply be asked if willing to help.
My profile is:
30 yo
5’11
177lbs
Body fat %17-19
Thank you!
Im finishing my testosterone cyp 350 mg weekly ( 175mg E3.5D) and 40 mg Anavar ED. Although i feel i got stronger - I could use more strength and endurance at the gym. Im also in calorie deficit so thats a oart of the reason for weakness. I expect getting bigger and leaner for from my next cycle - while increasing the calorie intake and lifting weights - i dont wanna look fat by any means and gain the fat back i lost
Dude, all bullshit aside, these stats are very average. Taking gear is going to mask the problem that is your training and/or diet, when it should be amplifying those things. Gear gains should be made in addition to your training and diet, not in spite of. I believe your case is the latter.
What does your diet look like?
Can you list everything you ate for the last 3 days with food weights?
If not, i suggest you start tracking these and dialing in your nutrition.
What does your training look like? What program are you following?
If you’re not following a program written by someone else, can you tell me what the primary driver of growth is for hypertrophy?
Is volume or intensity more important?
If you can’t answer those questions, i suggest you need to be following a program written by others and suggest you start with DoggCrapp Training.

Well, there is a start. I know a little more (though not much).
Do what I did. Focus on powerlifting, while still doing some bodybuilding. You need a good strength foundation if you hope to build a good physique. You don’t need to eat your way into the heavyweights. Try to stay around 15% body fat. That is sufficient to be calorically anabolic. Now get strong.
- What can you squat for 5 reps?
- What can you bench press for 5 reps?
- What can you deadlift for 5 reps?
Get back with us when you attempt the above lifts, plus what you weigh at the time of the 5 rep lifts.

You posted very broad and not detailed info. We still have no idea what you look like, what level lifter you are, years of experience, previous cycle history, etc. So I would very much encourage you to rethink your bulking cycle at 19% (likely more - everyone underestimates their bf%). From the very basic info you provided, I will go ahead and say you are skinny-fat, don’t have much muscle mass, and an inferior training/diet protocol. Or you are just a beginner which in that case you have no business using drugs. You can prove me wrong by posting more stats and/or a pic.

After I had been kinda stable in my physique doing “bodybuilding”, I made a switch to powerlifting. I had some wrong ideas (like squats would make my arms bigger), and I ate too much (which I think long term made me more muscular, I just looked like shit at 230 lbs natty at 5’10"). However, I believe that my physique has changed for the better. My back especially is much bigger, my legs are bigger (even though they aren’t great, kinda a genetic weakness). It just gave me a much more powerful look. Now I do kinda an in-between of powerlifting and bodybuilding.
I agree with what you say. Being stronger allows one to do “bodybuilding” movements with more weight while still targeting the muscles.
