im 27 and ive actually been on trt for like 2-3 years now running 200mg a week. my bloodwork always comes back clean so no issues there which is good. ive made some crazy progress just on that 200mg since i started but i think im pretty much at my natural limit at this point and im ready to finally do a real first cycle.
i know everyone says just do the standard 500 test but since my body is already so used to 200mg i feel like i should probably add something else into the mix too. so im basically wondering if anyone has suggestions on what to run with like 400-500 test thatll actually give me some solid results? just want something that stacks well and gives some good benefits without overdoing it for the first time.
honestly since you’ve already been on 200mg for years, adding a mild compound like primo or mast with 400-500 test usually gives a noticeable difference without going crazy
a lot of first timers on top of trt stick to just test + one other mild steroid and they see solid results, keeps sides manageable too
test alone is fine, but i get why you’d want something extra if you’re already adapted. low dose mast or primo is usually the go-to
first cycle after trt is weird cause your baseline is already higher than most, so small tweaks feel way bigger than expected
honestly, whatever you pick just start conservative. you can always tweak mid-cycle once you see how your body reacts
honestly if you've already been cruising on 200 for years you might be surprised how much 500 test alone still does. it’s a totally different beast once you more than double the dose. i'd stick to just test for the first real blast so you know how you react to higher levels
if you really want to add something maybe look into primobolan or masteron? they stack super well with test and dont have crazy side effects. keeping it simple is always better so you can actually tell whats doing what to your body
200mg a week for a cruise is a lot lol no wonder you made good progress! i'd probably just bump it up to 500 and see what happens before throwing other compounds in the mix. why complicate things if the test is still working?
id say go for 500 test and maybe some anavar for the last 6 weeks of the cycle. itll give u that extra strength boost and polish the look without being too harsh on your system for a first blast
man i was in the same boat being on trt first. i added 300mg of deca to my test and it was great for my joints but the mental sides were a bit much. maybe stick to something "dryer" like mast if u wanna add a second injectable
just remember more gear equals more management. if u jump to 500 test plus something else you better have an ai on hand because the estrogen is gonna spike way harder than what youre used to at 200
27 is a good age to start a real blast. id say 400 test and 200-300 primo is a super clean cycle. its expensive but the quality of the gains is top notch and it's easy on the hair for most guys
honestly just do the 500 test bro. i know it sounds boring since youre already on trt but its the gold standard for a reason. you still have plenty of room to grow before u need to start mixing in the exotic stuff
keep an eye on your blood pressure once u go above trt doses. i usually get a bit of a spike when i go up to 500. as for a second compound maybe just some tbol at the start to kick things off?
