Is this cycle worth running for my first time? Here's a pic showing where i am now:

Also, how should the Nolvadex be taken? In what dosages?

And are these syringes fine?

18 guage needle to draw, and 25 guage 1 and 1/2 inch to inject in glutes
 
Looks good!

I would probably wait a few weeks and drop the BF% at least to the lower teens before you start. You look like you are more around the 15% mark in your pic, if I had to guess.

Nolva. Since your cycle is not that strong (test only), I don't think you really need to use nolva. Nolva is a lot stonger than clomid, I would switch the two if I was you. Arimidex is also another option. In my case, Nolva gives me acne so I no longer touch the stuff.

Syringes. If you are drawing from a vial, 18g is fine. If you are drawing from a glass amp, I would use a smaller gauge just in-case some glass particles fall in. In that case, I'd use a 20g.

Injecting with a 25g pin in a bitch. It takes forever for the oil to push through. And since it takes so much time to push through, the needle is more than likely to move around (especially in the glut) causing some scar tissue.

Lastly, your test dose. I honestly don't think 250mg is worth shutting your body down for 10 + weeks. I'd bump it to 500mg. That's my opinion...some will say 250mg is fine. I've heard too many guys say they wish they started on 500mg instead of 250mg. It's your call.

Will you be running any HCG as well? Do so if you want your nuts to stay the same size. I've found 300iu E5D to be optimal.

Good luck bro, keep us posted.

so 250mg will effect my axis that much??? I'm paying $7 a vial so I'll be drawing from the vial so 20 guage it is for drawing...

can they test for steroids with urinalysis? My fucking probation officer works out at the same gym as me and if he gets suspicious I'm sure he'll ask for testing...

I cant find HCG anywhere so thats out of the question....
 
250mg will make a difference, especially because it's your first cycle....your most important cycle is your first.

Urine. Yes, a urinalysis can detect the use of steroids. BUT...most standard tests cost the state around $5 to do. To check for steroids, it costs them well over $100 AND it has to be sent to a lab to process. No instant tests available.

So unless they have a specific reason to test you for AAS, I wouldn't worry about it. Now, if you served time due to anything AAS related, that's a different story.

And just to be super safe, I'd go buy some bull shit PH from GNC, any problems....blame the PH if they come back to you. You know, the "Mark McGuire" defense. ;)

ahhhhhhhhhhhh...Well I was doing back yesterday and was taking off 10lb plates and when I was putting them back, I looked up and saw my fucking probation officer just looking at me....If you dont know...I have an ankle monitor with alcohol detection (called a SCRAM bracelet) and he told me that I needed to let him know everytime I go to the gym........the gym i go to is literally 100 yards from the courthouse....

He also mentioned testing me for performance enhancing substances...It's like he knew i was planning a cycle...Either way, I can't risk it because if i violate, i go upstate for 4-8.....I think he would catch on if i was adding 50 lbs to my exercises every week too :)

So now I'm stuck with 2 boxes of nolva, 2 boxes of clomid, some clen, and 3 vials of 2500 hcg....hah...

I think I'm gonna do a 2 week clen cycle though...

Also, I'm looking into running a strong prohormone....anyone have any advice on what to buy!?
 
I would highly suggest staying away from anything at all that can get you into any sort of trouble with on probation. It simply isn't worth it at all. The slight loss in body fat you'll achieve from running clen is not worth time in prison. AT ALL.
 
I found running HCG more often than Victor suggests to be optimal. I ran it mon-wed-fri at 250IU each shot. This kept t-levels more stabile than more infrequent shotss (the HCG will SPIKE your test levels when it hits your system). They should be injected sub-q under stomach fat (or wherever really). I would also run it from week 1 through week 13 (if you do a 12 week or through week 11 if you do your proposed 10 week). This will kickstart your cycle and provide an increase in t-levels almost immediately (while waiting for the test E to kick in a few weeks later).

I'd run the testosterone longer than 10 weeks especially cause its test E. I'd say 12 weeks (it wasn't until the last month that my cycle got REAL nice). I would also run prop but thats just me.

Nolva I think you'd be fine running 40/40/30/20 for 4 weeks (those are daily doses). You should also research aromasin for PCT (I think I told you this already somewhere maybe PM). Its a suicide inhibitor of the aromotase enzyme (an AI). It will keep estrogen levels down and test levels higher during PCT (nice to keep gains with). Its also a somewhat comfort thing during PCT. Run it for 4 weeks at 25mg ED and then 2 weeks at 12.5mg ED. Then stop (unlike amiridex or letro there is NO rebound effect with this drug so it can be abruptly stopped without estrogenic sides).

I also echo aanellein out of friendly/fatherly advice. I'd wait bro until you're off probation. It sucks but thats honestly the safest bet. It would suck for them to pop a probation violation on you :\
