Bearzerk's log : First bulking cycle : Sustanon Only

[Bearzerk]

Hi !
Ive been bodybuilding for 7 years naturally, competing and placing 2nd at the natural nationals in my country at 21 years old, professionnal PT for 4 years. But ive been wanting for a long time to be bigger, im a small frame guy originally, 5"5 52kg when i started bodybulding/weightlifting (was doing more karate at this time was pretty fast and strong/explosive for my frame) at almost 18 years old, went up to 68kg at 13% BF. I'm already on TRT (low dose of 125mg Enanthate every 14 days) due to native health issues.
At first I wanted to do a first cycle of sustanon and deca (NPP) but decided to go with sustanon only for a first time and see exactly what I feel from it. Next time i'm planning on trying cypionate and low to moderate dose tren for a few weeks.

I bought my sustanon from PharmacomStore (they are great btw) and I choose Induject 250 from Alpha Pharma (in amp form).

The plan is pretty simple :
10 weeks 500mg Sustanon (250mg sustanon every 4 days)
2 weeks of 250mg sustanon once a week
Still taking my 125mg test e every 14 days w/o any change
Arimidex 0.5mg every 3 to 5 days depending on how I feel

I did blood work prior to the first injection, and plan to do one every 4 weeks, last one will be 4 weeks from the last injection. I will publish everything.

So I started the cycle last sunday 01/27/19 at 68.5kg 15%BF, eating around 2k9 calories at the moment. I took arimidex just once during this week when I started to have nipple pain, waited a few hours to see if it lasted, took 0.5mg and it stops almost right away.
Pumps are already better than ever. The only side I felt for now is dryer skin than usual.
I'll keep this thread updated week to week with gym progress. Next week i'll publish some measurements.
I'm also really open to constructive criticism so don't hesitate.

Why not just stick with test e for your first blast as sust will have your hormone levels all over the place?

That ship has sailed savage. Hes already got what hes got and pressed the go button. I do agree with u tho that all one ester would b a bit more stable.


And Bear i wouldn't expect much until 3 or 4 weeks in. But good luck. As far as arimidex goes u may not need it at all and doubt any problems would.be occurring within a week. Dose it low....like .25 eod if If u are worried then check with bloodwork.estro levels.

I really liked the idea of having multi-esters, but yeah I get what you're saying ! In every case next time Im trying cypio only as my test, I wanted to see how I feel on different esters.
Yep, 3 To 5 days was my guide line and really want to go by feel. Next take I'll go with only 0.25mg. In every case in ~ 3 weeks i get everything checked up including estro. Thanks for the feedback

I have used sust and it was barely different from enanthate tbh.

The thing I wouldn't do is still taking test e 125mg every 14 days. Just use 500 (or 625mg) of sust or test e per week

I always hold more water with sust. And once a week is no go I would break it down in half of what your taking a week so you can atleast inject twice. N your test e for trt should be 125mg wk not every two weeks. Your levels are going up and down not good choice. So to keep em stable I would suggest shooting 125mg sust with 60mg test e one shot twice a week total 375mg test. When you shoot 500mg sust a week go to three injection m-w-f. Get the most from all esters you can break up test e 3 times with the sust of just shoot it m-f total 625mg a week

I do not inject once a week but every 4 days. Id love to use my enanthate every week as you said but as its prescribed I have only 3 1ml vials per month, so I ll stop the test e during the cycle. So after the 10 weeks id have still two 1ml vials of 250mg sust and 4 or 5 vials of 250mg test enanthate how should I do the last 2 weeks ?

Ran Sust for twelve weeks with Oxy at six weeks the first time I cycled.

I front loaded and got good results, even though I had to sit out two and a half weeks at the end. I'd been walking around with pneumonia for months, finally got meds but they fuck with tendon strength.

I held on to a ton of water, but put on a shit ton of lean weight too. But...I hadn't taken a break in almost two years and worked like I was juicing the whole time. So I kinda feel like not doing shit for two weeks was a blessing in that regard. :/

Did notice that my mood was kind of all over the place on it though. So I dug it, but going with straight E this next time around to see if I stay more even headed. Haven't decided if I'll run any orals or a second oil. Leaning against it though.

Don't think I'd run it again as opposed to C, P, or E if I maintain better.

Here it is, from last monday, the results for my blood test, on the left after 2 weeks of injection, results on the right from the day before starting the cycle. Test was 37 nmol/L and went up to 89, oestradiol is a little bit up too but my doctor is telling me to keep going by feel with the anastrozol. I dont feel any other side effect. I was sick this week (really bad fever, lot 3lbs in 3 days) i put 5lbs before being sick with the cycle and lost almost 1% bf, now im back 3.5lbs. I will try some dbol for a few weeks 30mg a day in 3 takes 6/7h apart from each other.
I dont feel bloated or holding a ton of water right now, maybe because i'm not too lean or too prone to it idk.
Ill make some pics later this week ! Whats funny is I feel like it helped me a lot with my calves, ive been prioritizing them since october (2 to 3 times a week because they were really shitty) and ive seem improving a lot better in those last 3 weeks !
