So I've just spent 6 months fighting lung cancer and until about a month ago I thought I'd lost the fight. Turns out I I got lucky. The treatment worked and despite having about 25 holes in me (from surgery) I've come out of it and am able to move forward. To be honest, I've spent a week or so just sitting on my couch wondering what the hell I'm going to do now because I was resigned to dying and just focussed everything I had on getting through it.
I had my first session in the gym a few days ago and I'm so shocked by how much this has taken out of me. Both strength wise and fitness wise. I'm a shade of what I was. I'm now clear of everything and free to move forward with whatever I want and I really want to get back some base of fitness and strength as soon as I can.
So while I've never done a cycle before, I've looked at it a lot and researched it for years leading up until now. I never thought this would be my life but now I'm looking at what I can do to get back to a base where I can start properly and I'm pretty pumped I've beaten cancer and am now looking at what I can do to get back to normal.
I've been given the all clear from my dr's to go forth and be normal again and I've spoken openly with my GP about doing a test cycle to get things rolling and while he's hesitant he's happy to support me with it and we've done a first round of blood tests to make sure we're ok.
My questions are a few:
1: I hope Vision can send me a PM to assure me his sources are legitimate and I can get order what I need to get started ASAP. I've had a look at your site and It looks like what I need to get started. I don't have any contacts in Australia given my last 12 months or so, so I hope I can find a source of legitimate stuff to get working.
2: Despite having cancer treatment for a long time I've not only lost a lot of strength but I've mainly put on a fair amount of fat. Probably 10kg's. I'm still fairly lean, around 18-20%BF.
3: My goal is to first lose the extra body fat but at the same time get back to my normal strength pre-cancer.
So I'm thinking because this is my first cycle, (I'm 39, never any major health issues, mainly an endurance runner), I'd stick to a Test only cycle. Happy to hear otherwise though! This may be a different situation than most!
My thoughts are a cycle that is 500mg of Testosterone Cypionate for 12 weeks:
With:
Also:
• Week 1-12 – 20mg/day Nolvadex to combat gyno symptoms
• Week 1-10 – 0.5mg/e3d Cabergoline (if there are prolactin issues)
• Week 3-10 – 250iu/eod HCG
PCT:
• Week 15 - 18 – 100 mg/day Clomid
I would love to hear anyone's thoughts on this! Firstly if you think this is a good approach, and secondly, (especially from Vision, where to purchase!)
While I've looked at doing a cycle for a LONG time I've never really bothered but this last year has shown me now what I've lost and I want to get back to where I was as soon as I can. I HATE where I'm at right now.
Go easy on me
