Welcome to ASF!
For your first cycle you want to do test only at say 400mg per wk. With being new to this you don`t know how you will respond and if you throw in multiple things at once and you have bad side effects which one is causing what side effect? That is a big reason why we always suggest test only for a first cycle. You also don`t know how much your body converts test into estrogen. You have an AI (Armidex) on hand which is great but you do not want to take this unless you need it. Ideally you need to get lab work before your cycle, around 6 wks in and then again after PCT (Post cycle therapy) to see if you recovered. The first labs are to see what your natural test level is so you know your target of what you are going back to or trying to get back to after the cycle. If you don`t know where you started then you cant know where you are going. The labs at around the 6 wk mark will tell you what your estrogen level is to see if you need the Armidex or not. The labs after PCT is to see if you recovered or not. You can buy your own labs online and have them done at a Quest or lab corp depending on which you choose when you purchase them. I personally have only used Private MD labs but there are others as well. When you get lab work you want to make sure you get a total test MC/MS, Free test and an Ultra-Sensitive estrogen.
Now I realize you have ran a cycle before with multiple compounds but I would suggest taking the above and starting over so you can actually learn your body. The fact that you ran that prev cycle does not change the fact that you do not know how each compound including test effects you.
What are your plans for PCT after your cycle?
Now, the MOST important thing of them all which i intentionally saved till last. Diet. You NEED to get your diet sorted out before you ever touch Test or any other anabolic. They will NOT give you the results you seek without a proper diet. I personally eat chicken and rice every day of my life but I know not everyone can or will do that. It`s just what works for me
I saw you mention that you just ate as much protein as possible. That is only half of the equation. You need carbs (with the exception being someone that does a keto style diet and is fat adapted). Carbs are extremely important to building muscle. Think of protein as concrete and carbs as a cement truck. You can`t get the concrete to the job site without the truck. You also want a modest amount of healthy fats for a number of reasons. You don`t want to just eat a bunch of junk for your carbs either. You need "good carbs" aka complex carbs which for me is rice.
If I can be of any help to you please feel free to reach out
