Run the test at 500mg from the start. This whole building up to a higher dose, a long ester at that, is stupid and pointless.

Blasting 500 mg of test from the jump is not a good idea, too many chances of side effects. Start at lower doses and check blood after a month or so and then bump up another 50-100 mg.

Yea I get what you mean. I was going to but i yea I was trying to avoid side effects cus this is the first time my test will be this high ever

 

[Bigbicep]

Could I have more opinions on this though? Should I go up slowly or should I just do 500mg from the start

500mg or bust

If you get sides, reduce the dosage. Or don't, up to you.

Yes I actually like this. Go hard or go home !

I realized early on that starting at lower dosages, for me at least, was a waste of time, specifically titrating upwards as @T&H stated.

If you're really concerned about side-effects, just use a shorter ester.

That being said, this can be compound dependent. For example, I've never tried Tren. But if/when I do, I'll be using Tren A and starting at a very low dosage to assess my tolerance. There are other compounds that could potentially warrant this as well, but I wouldn't consider Test one of them.

Yeah true. I probably would have used the shorter ester if I didn’t already stock up on enanthate lol I’ll just do that then. Start at the 500 and if sides are too bad I’ll turn down the dosage. Shouldn’t be too bad.

Go back to reddit where guys are fearful of testosterone side effects on a mere 500mg cycle. What a complete joke people like you believe this nonsense.

Check out the brain on brad, cause giving advice to a person going on their first cycle to start immediately blasting 500 mg without even seeing how their body reacts is such a smart idea.
It’s a marathon not a sprint

 

[SkankHunt]

Start at 400mg. If you start getting sides then lower the dose.

 

[Escalope]

hey
you can already have results with 250 per week with test E
you can also do 500mg directly, but keep a stable rate

If you have bad side effects at 150/200/250mg of Test per week (given you aren't hypogonadal and don't REQUIRE testosterone/hormones), then maybe taking gear isn't for you.

Is 500mg of Test a lot? It depends on the circumstances. Are we speaking strictly about TRT for someone with male hypogonadism, or are we referring to what OP is asking (taking AAS for performance enhancement, aesthetics, etc)? If we're answering the former, then yes, 500mg is "technically" a lot. The latter...500mg isn't shit, in my opinion.

Trust me, I'm a doctor (I am not a doctor)!

I’m not saying it’s a lot all I’m saying is why not start at a lower does such as 200 or 250 for a a month get some blood work done feel it out and up it from there, gradual increase is all Im saying.

Hey guys, brand new to this forum and I wish I would have found it earlier on.

I’m 34 yr old, 6’3, 175 lb male who’s been working out for about 10 years. Always been a natural up until a few months ago when I tried Cjc 1295/ ipamorelin for a 2 month cycle. Really good sleep but no crazy gains. I was paranoid about the insulin resistance so I was basically on a keto diet. Gained about 5 lbs of muscle.

I want to start off with 100 mg of test e per week for the first month and then upping it, thoughts and feedback?

Goal is to safely hit 200lbs

You're the last person who should be giving advice for a testosterone cycle. For you to come in and make a recommendation with zero prior experience is not what flies around here.

Testosterone is one of the most studied and safest drugs. The majority of those who log first cycles of 400 to 500mg do not experience side effects bad enough to force ceasing their cycle.

I suggest you do more reading than giving advice until you actually have something valuable to contribute.

hmm you might have a point, so going back to my first post maybe ill
Just say f the 100 mg and jump to 500 mg for my first cycle.
Thank you for enlightening me.

it’s getting hot in here

Throw your cycle into a Google steroid calculator you'll see how long it takes for you to titrate up to get level blood levels. It might change your mind once you can visually see it.

Yeah I think I’m just going to do it. If I do titrate up tho I’ll do 350mg for like 3 weeks then go to 500mg for the rest of the cycle.
