I've been a member for a while but always just lurked in the shadows reading and learning.

My story is this, I just turned 40 and I want to take my training to the next level. I've been lifting off and on for two decades. I worked three jobs for about 80% of my adult life and now that I'm down to one so I have more time to focus on me.

There is obviously a lot of knowledge and experience in this forum and I am here to learn what I can. With that being said, I have decided to take the leap. I am currently prescribed test (have been on it constantly since 2018) and want to stack with it. If I'm wanting to build muscle but look harder, what would be a recommended 1st cycle?

There’s a bunch more info we need before recommending a cycle.
What does training and diet look like?
How much test are you on?
High aromatizer?
What does training your blood panels look like on TRT?
Is this a one time blast or are you looking to jump on gear for the foreseeable future?
How lean are you? Height/weight?

There’s the popular answer- just take more test. But I don’t necessarily think that would align with your goal of looking harder.

If you are lean enough, maybe something like 6 weeks of Anavar would fit your goals. Or something like a run with masteron.

Let us know more details so we can best help!

I'm just on 200mg/week of Test C. I just ordered the home blood test through Rythm and am waiting on that to come in so I don't currently know my numbers.

I'm currently 5'10" 240lbs. I'm not remotely lean at the moment but I'm trying. I was 275lbs 4 months ago but I've cleaned my diet up a lot and started on Retatrutide along with 5 days a week in the gym. I know I have a lot to learn and I'm open to suggestions.

Congrats on the weight loss! That’s a great start.
I don’t think you are in a place right now to run a cycle- sure you can take some drugs but if you really want results, I would stick with the TRT and Reta.
If you really want to spice it up, maybe go to 300mg of test, and add in 2-4 IU GH, and just keep plugging away with the diet and training.
Consistently is going to be king here, and once you strip a bunch more fat, you’re gonna be in a much better place to explore more cycle options.
Get down to 10-12% and see some abs, then add some Anavar. You will really pop!

Might not be what you are looking to hear, but for long term success i believe this is the way!

Also, I will add, track everything- workouts, cardio, and food. Get a macro tracking app like Cronometer. Weight yourself daily at the same time and state, then take a weekly average. Pay attention to the mirror more than anything as your body changes.

Consider doing a log on here- Ir helps with accountability and gives you a visual record of progress. There are some absolute units on here and guys with a million times more knowledge than me who can chime in as well.

Best of luck to you! Keep the questions coming throughout your journey.
