Over the years I've seen hundreds of "what do you think of this for a first cycle" types of threads. In the majority of situations, the same basic first cycle is ideal for most people.
Setting aside your stats, because being a harm reduction board let's be honest here. If you tell us you're 20years old, or you're 180lbs or you've been training for a year .. .. We're going to tell you to wait and try to help you be safe.
So this post is assuming you're at a point where it's OK for you to start your first cycle. I'd love for more of the guys to chime in here so we can leave an educational thread that's easy for the new guys to find.
I'll lay out a basic cycle. Don't worry about adding dbol, deca or anything else this cycle. See how you respond to this by itself. Truthfully if your diet and training is on point, you will grow just as much off a basic test cycle.
Weeks 1-10 or 1-12
--500mg test c or test e split into 2 injections per week
--Aromasin or Arimidex on hand and use as needed.
--Hcg 250iu 2x per week
Pct
Dr Scally's POWER PCT
Day 1-16 : 2500iu HCG every other day.
Day 1-30 : Nolva 20mg/day; Clomid 100mg/day
Day 31-45 : Nolva 20mg/day
I recommend using test c or e for your first cycle instead of test prop. Prop is likely to cause more post injection pain (pip) and requires more frequent injections.
I cannot urge strongly enough that you get your Aromasin, Arimidex, Nolva and Clomid as pharmaceutical and not from an underground lab. You do not want to take chances with your recovery or gyno. If you get bunk test... That's a bummer... You get bunk pct meds? Your dick may never work again. Please take this advice seriously, some of us have learned the hard way.
I also strongly recommend you get pre cycle blood work done, as well as blood work a bit after pct is completed. The reason for this is you want to know your baseline so that when you get your post cycle bloods done you know if you really are recovered. What if your test levels naturally are 1100 but your pct bloods show 750? You may think you recovered well when in reality you didn't. Or what if you fine out your cholesterol or liver values are bad and you're running a huge health risk starting a cycle?

Generally for most people, get 3cc syringes with 23g x 1" needle combo plus a box of 23g x 1" needle tips. No you may not draw your oil and inject with the same needle. Swap the needle after you draw. Do not ever take short cuts or risks when it comes to a sterile injection. Your needle tips are about $5 for 100x and your alcohol swabs are even cheaper.
If other members would like to add, that would be great. I'm certainly not the most knowledgeable on the board but I'd like there to be a good resource for the new guys to check out. I'm sure I missed something but if I catch it I'll fix it.
