I am currently mid cycle, I was rocking out on the shit PEP sent me but I got bloods and they showed low free test at 2195ng/dl. I am waiting on a sample from Alpha gear to arrive as well as a purchase from MFL. I will be running AG for the rest of this cycle and reviewing it along the way.
New stats
Weight is up to 217, not too much fat gain but definitely some I should clean my diet up a bit. I do quiet a bit of cardio as well.

Have you run that PCT before? looks a little light.

 

[03xx52]

You know on 500mg of test only I really think I will be just fine, I am trying to avoid side effects of clomid as I know how I respond on Nolva. I have clomid on hand and will see what the bloodwork shows.
If I decide to run it it would be 50mgED along with the Nolva for 4 weeks.

 

[johnnyBALLZ]

Good timing on PCT, if you extend to 16 weeks I'd wait more like 4 weeks though.. Use the clomid man.

Best of luck with the new gear, I'll be following along..

 

[azazul]

My favorite spot now is delts. Give it a go.

Mine too but he's already got 4 spots in the rotation for 2 pins a week.

Using some therapeutic intuition? Oh yea I like it fella.

Ya know It's been said on Meso and elsewhere that HTPA suppression is suppression and that's that! Unfortunately many mates have swallowed that notion hook, line and sinker without giving it any more thought. No need to right, just follow a PCT protocol that is effective for every mate regardless of AAS history! (Yet in spite of untoward side effects and the unnecessary expenditures incurred as a consequence)

Now, I'm not refuting the "one size fits all approach to PCT" is effective BUT most members on Meso are not numb nuts and will use their God given talent if provided some suggestions on how to successfully deviate from the norm.

So it's ok to modify PCT and lessen the, HCG and SERM, load originally designed for pro BB and lifters. Because VERY FEW (probably less than 5%) of those on Meso cycle with 4-6 AAS, at such high dosages and for such prolonged periods
as MOST pro BB and lifters.

Finally while I generally agree essentially all AAS associated HTPA suppression is an all or none phenomena, at it's onset. However once AAS are discontinued circadian rhythm restoration, in a quantity identical to precycle values and the lag period are highly contingent upon several factors such as; the cyclist AGE, THE TYPE OF AAS CYCLED, THE DOSAGE, THE DURATION OF USE, THE NUMBER OF PREVIOUS CYCLES AND MOST IMPORTANTLY WHETHER HTPA RESTORATION WAS ACHIEVED (based on labs) BETWEEN CYCLES!

ALL that being said, there is NO SUBSTITUTE for LABS such as TT and LH to confirm or refute wether a therapeutic objective has been reached.

Blood work does not lie....As for the delts, I might try them out once his cycle because in subsequent cycles I will most likely have to use them.

As Far as PCT goes, if you have issues with clomid you may want to consider adding Torem with your nolva. I'm Trying out a torem clomid nolva combo, 3 weeks in to PCT I feel pretty good.

I also struggled with the timing for PCT, but decided to go with the standard 2 weeks after last pin.
While some advocate waiting until all of the Test is out of your system, waiting 3 or 4 weeks after last pin, others prefer starting PCT before Test levels crash.

If we start PCT when test levels have dropped to a normal range, our serms should be effective. It seemed like a good way to avoid that crappy low test part of PCT. That was my reasoning anyway.

I don't have issues using Clomid I just have issues using medications that I do not necessarily need. If labs show that I need an additional serm than I have no problem adding it in. I am also in agreement with trying to let my natural test production come back into play a bit after the cycle before jumping into serm treatment .

Hmm THREE SERMS for PCT, thats an interesting idea based on existing evidence, NOT!
Goodness, I hope you have done some blood work to evaluate this NEW therapy!

I did do some bloodwork, Jim. My RBC's and hemoglobins and crits are still high. My lipids improved, but I did have giant platelets observed.
I think I might be in need of a b12 shot, I have issues with malabsorption from celiac.

 

[Dr JIM]

I hope your not taking THREE SERMs to alter your Hct or lipid profile.

 

[Burrr]

no, just an observation from blood work.

 

[03xx52]

no, just an observation from blood work.

You should really look into the potential compounding effect of your pct choices.

 

[03xx52]
