First cycle ever at 40

Here is a question. I am 40 and have never done a cycle. I have lifted naturally for over 15 years. Recently seeing some decline in areas that have bothered me and think I would like to try 1 cycle to see if it is what I am looking for. Bought the book and have been reading posts on this site for over a year. I have a source but my question is as follows. Would a cycle and PCT for someone my age be any different than what was mentioned in Pheezers sticky? I dont want to re invent the wheel and if that is suffecient then I will work off of cycle #2 or #3. However I am not sure if there is something that needs to added or modified for someone in my age group. Solo was helpful in passing on his advice which was much appreciated. My stats are.

As mentioned I am in excellent health (besides bad tendonitis that is healing) and never done AAS in my life. I know Shredded Wheat is currently on a cycle and I am waiting patiently for his input on how it is going. Thanks in advance for the info.

If you have been lifting for 15 years and have never done a cycle I think you will be amazed at the difference while lifting on a cycle. The gains you can make in that short time are awesome.

The only thing that I would change in the PCT is the use of Nolva instead of Clomid. It has been shown that Nolva works more efficiently than Clomid. This has been found out after the sticky was written of course. Clomid will work fine, people used it for years and some still use it but Nolva is just better. Good luck-

Barbender......you and I are very similar. I am 40, been lifting on and off since I was 13, never did a cycle, and you and I are almost the same exact size. I am thinking of doing a cycle for the same exact reason you are as well. The only thing I have right now is (nobody laugh) Oxavar. I haven't noticed anything except quick and exceptional strength gains. I am getting excited though, I think I would get exactly what I am looking for with real gear. (thinking about oral Turinabol) I should have ordered real gear, I ordered Gaspari Oxavar on Ebay and it came from Korea through customs......LOL...I would have been better off ordering the real deal. I did not pay attention where the package was coming from until it arrived. I just laughed. Oh well...Good luck and please keep me posted on your progress.

Last November I did my first cycle of test and make remarkable gains. I was very pleased. I was 36 at the time, so its pretty close in age. Im currently on a second cycle of test and eq. I use nolva for pct. Works really well for me. Good luck!

If you're 5 foot 10 with body fat of 9-10 % (you can see your abs clearly ) and 219 lbs I would just be satisfied as your already bigger than most people who have taken steroids. Why risk you hair and HPTA when you are already jacked. Just MHO.

BTW, you won't do just one cycle, lol
 
Hey Lou I am not sure if you were typing to me or Barbender. I know you don't just do one cycle. I may not have the experice with the products you do, but I have been going to the gym for a long time. ;) As for myself, I was thinking of starting with something like Turinabol as a starter to see what it could do for me. (Keep in mind I am 40 and don't want to blow out of my shirt...lol) Then if I get some size, maybe do Anavar after that to lean out. Let me know if you have any suggestions, I am sure Barbender has his ears open as well on this. Thanks guys. Chaos

Hey Barbender,
I haven't started yet; I've got the gear but getting the bloodwork etc.. done tomorrow. I don't expect any problems with my results so I'll be starting on Monday. Going for a 12 weeker with 500mg per week of Test Enth/400mg Eq. I'm going to front load for 3-4 weeks with 25mg of D-Bol, then about week 8 or 9 do 3-4 weeks of Anavar. I'm going to start Nolva at around week 4 until the end of the cycle at 20mgs a day. I can't wait to start, and I'll definitely be giving progress reports. cheers, SW.

Barbender..I know you have done your research and put in serious time in the gym.It is time to go the next step.HDH gave you excellent advice..he always does !
Wheat..your cycle looks good but do not take nolva at week 4..you most likely will not need it untill you start pct..just have it on hand in case you get very itchy nips.The only thing you have left out is HCG entire cycle @ 500 ius each week.
 
Thanks Dennis,
The guy I bought the gear from reckons that I might get by without the HCG; however I'll ensure I get the HCG to be on the safe side. Cheers, SW.

The guy that reckoned is right, you will get by. But it is better to use HCG to get things in working order faster and less Nut shrinkage. LOL

Sups ..say it aint so ! e tu ? You used to not be a believer in hcg ?![:o)] I love the part he said about "the guy i got the stuff from reckoned"......you should get him to show you his nuts ! Bet they look like shriveled marbles...[:o)]
 
It is strange. My source has everything under the sun except HCG. From reading these posts and the book I absolutely refuse to do a cycle without HCG. It seems foolish to not include it in your PCT. All your replys have been very much appreciated. Dennis, HDH, Jsup, and Shredded I am in your debt. If you find yourself on the west coast of Canada and want to go salmon fishing drop me a PM. Wont be starting my cycle for at least another 6 weeks but will keep you posted on progress etc. Regards.

I couldn't imagine a pair of shriveled up nuts. Not everyone gets that side. I have enough trouble fighting gyno and acne :o

First cycle ever at 41 yrs old,running test 500mgs e3d, in 5th week with small but significant changes. Great sense of well being, horny as a 25 yr old,slight increase in weight max outs at gym and a 20lb gain [in water most likely],very happy so far and the test E doesnt really get going till this week,
 
That's a lot of Test for a first cycle.

How are you doing for gyno prevention and PCT?
