Weeks 1-13: Test Cyp 500 mg/wk
Weeks 1-13: EQ 500mg/wk
Weeks 1-13: Arimidex .5mg EOD (pills btw)
Week 15: start standard 30 day Clomid therapy
My current stats: 5'9, 170lbs, 10% BF.
My concerns:
1. Bloat. I really, really don't want the moon face. I've heard plenty of great things about Arimidex, but can I really count on it for maximum bloat suppression? Should I throw Nolvadex in there too?
2. Gains. I obviously love gains, but what kind of results can I expect? During my last cycle, I peaked at +20 lbs, and that was with only 400mg of Cyp. over 10 weeks. A lot of it was water, but that's still a lot of fucking weight. I really don't want to become a muscle fiend off this cycle. I want a net gain of 15 lbs, at the most.
3. Running Arimidex and Nolvadex all the way through PCT. Is this overkill? I've heard about estrogen rebounds during PCT, so I'm wondering if these are necessary precautions.
4. HCG. It took me a while to get my natural testosterone going after my last cycle. If I can't lay pipe this summer, I'm going to be bitter. Should I consider HCG?
Thanks to all for the advice.
