Hi everyone!

New to this and want to optimize as much as possible.

I am 32, 5’9 and weigh 285. 20” arms (pumped), 38” waist, and a massive chest. Body fat most likely in the 20-25% range (guessing based on definition)

I trained like my life depended on it from the time I was 16 to 24 naturally, ate well, no alcohol, low sugar, etc. When I started at 16 I weighed 170, when I was 24 I weighed 225-230 at 8% with a 34” waist. Went to school, had kids, lost the gym.

I really started packing on the fat after 26 and thought it was an eating issue until I fixed that and was still smooth and heavy. At 29 I had labs ran, and my T was 148. Had a few more, but average is below 200. So yeah definitely need to take test.

My workouts are focused hell basically, 20-30 mins of cardio, followed by core training for 10 minutes, and then another 45 minutes of heavy lifting 4-8 exercises, 4 sets each with group dependent ranges.

I burn on a non training day about 3500 cals, on a training day around 5000 cals. Training on average 4 times a week

caloric Intake varies but is usually under whatever I burn, consisting of rice, grits, eggs, chicken, turkey, beef, etc. I do have a nasty weakness for “healthy” cereal and milk ( sometimes I wake up because I am freaking starving, that’s my go to). Protein intake over 300 grams.

So with all of this being said, how should I start? I would like to try a test/tren ace combo, but would like some feedback first.

Thanks all,

Looking forward to your comments.
 
First cycle keep it very simple, test only. Run 300 to 400mg max for 8 to 10 weeks with proper PCT. Get blood work done before to make sure you are good to go. Tren is no joke and comes with tons of sides that you will not know how to manage. It took me 3 decades of doing gear before I touched tren and I still don't unless I am ready to step on stage.



Good luck.
 
Listen to WiseGuy! Test only cycle will change your physique as long as food, sleep and training is on point. Which sounds like you have it figured out
 
Similar to you but not exactly. Started trt at 30. 100mg/week (50 e3.5d) absolutely changed the game for me. Did one blast at 350/week and dicked around with some orals.

Now that im more familiar with bloodwork and how I respond I’m running 200/week (100 e3.5d) until further notice. Maybe that’ll change.

Bloodwork is important and knowing ur body as well.
 
How do you know how much you burn daily? I highly doubt you’re burning 1500 calories training unless you’re doing some insane marathon training session for hours. Those trackers (I’m assuming you’re using one) are not accurate at all. They’re pretty worthless.
There’s way too many variables to know how much you burn daily. It doesn’t matter though. It’s literally impossible.
What you can control is how much you put in.

I’d start by getting my diet down, sticking with the same foods in the same amounts daily and seeing how my body responds week to week. Changing the amounts of carbs or fats as needed.
nutrition is really simple.
Beef, chicken, eggs, fish, rice, oats, fruit, potatoes, nuts, avacado, olive oil, fish oil.

If you don’t know exactly how much youve eaten at every meal for the past week start there.
 
So what’s the deal with AI and PCT. How do I know if/when I need AI. Sounds like I need on hand before I start anything.

For PCT is this after 12 weeks, do I even need to worry about it since T is fucked already? When does this become necessary dose/duration of cycle wise? Where is the line between a cycle and TRT?
 
Ok, a couple things...

First off, Welcome to the forum.

Second, look in the top right corner of the screen and hit that search button. Type in "First Cycle" but click that button that says "Search Titles Only.". There are gonna be hundreds, more like thousands, of threads about people wanting advice about a first cycle and they all have the same information in them. Again, welcome to the forum and if you spend time reading here, you'll find all the information that you need

Good luck.

Thank you! This was super helpful as I don’t have much forum experience
