Hermit's cycle...

Hey Guys...

Been a bit of a hermit, and out of action for a while - nearly 3 years... While i do my homework again, and reconnect with the right people all over again - I gathered what i still have at home, and well i'm thinking of doing a pretty simple cycle - and well yeah curious to see what you guys think about it...

Some stats/background:
Age: 36 y/o;
Height: 1.67 tall;
Weight: 71kg
B/F: 16%;
BMI: 25
Been training since high school (on and off)... Use to be a soccer freak, now I enjoy my running outside of gym (wanna focus on enjoying both now);
Have done several cycles over the years, and yeah I must say - when done properly have benefited tremendously from them - but yeah like i said, haven't done any in nearly 3 years.

Objective: Just to really get back into the swing of things - gain some lean muscle - no crazy expectations...

So kinda have enough stuff on hand to do following:
EQ @ 600mg/wk
Var @ 60mg/day
Test E@400mg/wk
Like i said its basic... And in past i would have brought Deca or Tren into the picture, but for now keeping it lean while I get my act together - curious to know if anyone has tried something similar... And yeah open to any constructive criticism?...

Thanks in advance guys -
Cheers!

I like the cycle it's simple and highly effective. Up the Test to 600mg not 400mg. No cycle length mentioned so remember to run EQ at least 12 weeks and the Test 3 weeks after EQ. Var only the last 6 weeks of the cycle during bridge and add Proviron to increase the effectiveness. Add an oral frontload- I would suggest Tbol for lean bulk. It's critical to have Aromasin on hand for such a long cycle and use during your bridge. Have you thought about using HCG for testicular attrophy and what PCT you will run?

Hey Pyroclasm... Thanks a ton for the re! Input appreciated (seriously)!

Yup omitted a very important note - Cycle length: Spot on re 12 weeks on EQ. However was thinking 1 week less on test and last 8 weeks for Var?

Interesting recommendation re Proviron. Haven't used it in ages, do however remember learning of its anti-estrogen effects. Hmm Will have to see if i can get my hands on some. T-Bol would also be great - but boy did i battle to get hold of decent stuff last time i tried.

Re the increase in Test - i do agree a slightly higher dose would be better - but only have enough handy for 400mg/wk... The more i contemplate this, the more i'm thinking i probably should increase the Test.

PCT - good question: So I'm also keeping this simple: Nolvadex @ 40mg/day for two weeks and then 20mg/day for another 2 weeks

HCG would be great (most definitely, can say so from experience) - however, would also need to source some. Luckily I have some Aromasin handy.

I guess I have some homework to do over next couple of days - hoping to get cracking in a week or so. Will be heading overseas for a conference in 14 weeks time, don't want to interrupt cycle/travel with gear because of trip.

Cheers - and thanks again for input!

You need that clomid my bru and not old school nolva only, clomid is very effective at 50mg for 14 days. Sure you'll feel like a bitch but all hpt axis. Hcg from third week, keep your nuts idling. Aromasin more for E2. Good shit too have but can't compare to hcg. I can't run steroids without hcg, keeps nuts big and keeps sex drive spiked. Big fan of anavar, what's your body fat? You can achieve anything based on diet and training. You can be lean on deca if you add primo or masteron, a good diet... Pending goals boet...

Hey FIllet... bro you offer only good advice... However trying to make due with i currently have - so yeah have kept things really simple... As much of a fan as I am of clomid as well - i have successfully stuck to only nolva on similar cycles in the past. Also huge fan of HCG - but i think i'll be fine with only Aromasin. BF sitting between 15 and 16%... Getting my running act together again along with gym and diet - and hey you right you can achieve anything with diet and training - i'd add some consistent discipline to that recipe as well!

As for deca and masteron - they too are great, and have had great results from them both in past... Would definitely love to give them a bash again sometime.

Thanks again guys... Cheers!

T-Bol would also be great - but boy did i battle to get hold of decent stuff last time i tried. Finding good quality gear is everything hey!

Re the increase in Test - i do agree a slightly higher dose would be better - but only have enough handy for 400mg/wk... The more i contemplate this, the more i'm thinking i probably should increase the Test. Rather save up and run the cycle at its best.

PCT - good question: So I'm also keeping this simple: Nolvadex @ 40mg/day for two weeks and then 20mg/day for another 2 weeks Nee... Fok! :S Follow Fillet's advice.

Not so much about saving up, than about making sure i source good quality gear - Because I completely agree - You right it's so important... So yeah for now just using what i currently have that's reliable and can trust. Might not be the best cycle ever - but I "think" I'll enjoy it... Ummm hope so!

As for PCT... Ok ok!!... I agree a good PCT is super important (SUPER Important) - so I really actually will take the advice, will make a point of stocking up with what i'm missing before i get to it.

Hope you lads are having a great weekend!
