1st cycle 33yo

Thanks for that. So add hcg weeks 9-12? Any benefit to running the hcg for a bit after cycle before starting pct?

Ok. Think I’m being stupid. You said final weeks before pct so probably weeks 13-15

Definitely
You can run it up until PCT
(ensure the HCG clears before starting PCT.... I cant remember the half life TBH )
I used to megadose just before PCT to.help with shocking my HPTA

According to Pregnyl it is 33hrs. Studies have shown that it differs between individuals and usually longer for women.

U could run an oral week 12-16 when ur waiting for the test to clear (var)

that sounds cool. Any idea how long it takes for the VAR to clear?

Chest has always been a weak point of mine and a focus for years. Any pointers would be greatly appreciated. I'm not even sure what I should be emphasizing. I have been targeting lower more than upper recently. Pics on page 1.

Little update. Pins have been going well. Heat the oil in a mug of hot water and inject into glute switching sides each time then hitting area with my massage gun for 5 mins and no pip. Not sure why but I was really tired for a few days but starting to feel better. I've been sleeping 8+ hours a night and eating 2700 cals a day. Maybe just fatigue. I upped my zinc and vitamin C incase its an immune response to fluctuating hormones.

Weight is up 6lb's but its all water I think. I'm definitely starting to feel more full like I have a mini pump going 24/7. A little bit more acne but nothing bad. I hit 2 new PR's this week but no crazy strength gains.

I think I'm going to switch to 3 pins a week. I don't mind pinning at all and the consensus seems to be that the more you do the more stable you can keep your levels. Thoughts anyone?

Yes i found differences in “feelings” switching from 1 x week trt inj to 3 x week..

good luck man, you re very square and precise..

suggest you to add some HGH … like 3iu ED… there are some well tested generics on the forum, and they’re not outrageously expensive

Thanks Frozen! I think I do feel better w 3x a week. I definitely feel an extra libido boost from the HCG about 3 hours after I take it. I'll consider GH for future cycles. Prostate cancer runs in the family so I will need to get checked for it and do some more research on it before I'd run it. I want to see If I'm able to fully recover from the Test first as well.

Progress Update.
Definitely seeing results. I'm up 12lbs and skin fold is saying I lost some fat. Upped calories to 3000 a day with a carb increase. New strength PR's every session now for reps. I will add weight carefully this week. Libido like my 20's, a little acne, and am sweating/hot more. People are noticing the changes. I haven't seen a big recovery boost but my volume and intensity is going up so that makes sense. Took a 3 day de load over the weekend to drop some of the fatigue. will post progress pics soon.

Prostate cancer it seems grows with DHT, dont know if IGF1 is the bigger enemy
