First Cycle- Couple of questions (Have read all threads + 250pg one)

[DCLoki]

Try to give you all the information needed in advance, apologies if more is required--- just let me know.

Age: 22
Height 6ft
Weight: 195-200
BF: 10-12%

Bench 295
Dead 495
Squat (Not sure, major knee injury so only parallel box squats as per dr instructions)


Was thinking 500 test E, 12 or 16 wk cycle

My main question is regarding PCT.... You have stated in other responses males under 30 don't need as strong pct's for obvious reasons, however never specifics on what you'd suggest. HCG overkill? Would Nolva/clomid do? And if so specifics on dosage/duration would be greatly appreciated. Also should I drop bodyfat further? Under 10%? Let me know if there is anything else you need, I want to do this correctly and with proper due diligence. Thank you for your time, much appreciated sir.

250mg Monday and 250mg Thursday would be a good beginning cycle. I would say PCT is as important if not more than the cycle itself. Why spend money and effort to gain muscle only to lose it because of lack luster or non existent PCT. Yes younger guys don't need to be as aggressive but PCT s still necessary. I would suggest 500iu HCG every third day(total 5 shots). Concurrently take 50mg clomid twice daily every day and 25mg aromasin every day for 3 weeks.

I would also keep the cycle to 12 weeks maximum. Most guys stop gaining by this time anyway so longer isnt going to help much anyway...and shorter a cycle equals easier recovery.

Thank you sir, much appreciated. Should I start PCT after or before the last shot? Also should I dip below 10% for an ideal starting point since fat gain will take place during the 12 weeks?

Two weeks after your last shot is fine to start. Below 10 would be better if possible.
