I am 22 years old 5'11 and weigh 180lb now, just finished my last dose of test on sunday. This has been my first cycle of AAS

I ran:
Test Cyp 500mg/ week for 10 weeks
Test EQ 400mg/ week for 10 weeks
HCG 600iu/ week weeks 2-10
adex 0.5mg every 3 days weeks 1-10


for PCT I was originally only going to run clomid 200mg day 1, 100mg day 2, and continue the 100mg dose every day for the next two weeks, then 75mg week 3 and 50mg week 4.

However lots of people have been suggesting running nolva along with the clomid, and I am wondering if while running both, I need to adjust the dose of the clomid as well as what dose to run the nolva at.

thanks for the input!

I personally don't like clomid - much prefer use nolva if that's all that is needed. And 10 weeks of those doses you will be fine with nolva. Start few weeks after your last pin - 40mg x 2 weeks , 20 mgs x 2 weeks , off. Gl
 
if you are going to run both use nolva at 20 mg/ed for 4 weeks in the morning and the clomid at 50 mg/ed for 4 weeks at night...no need for the higher doses, that is an old school concept that has been shown in the last 10-15 years to be inefficient and unnecessary

the body will only process and utilize 20 mg of nolva at a time and only 50 mg of clomid so anything higher than those doses, for the purposes we use them for, is unnecessary...if you are treating breast cancer or trying to get pregnant that's another story though
 
Sounds good! Thanks for the good information fellas, I know some people do not like clomid, as well as some absolutely despise the nolva. That's why it is nice to have intellectuals and experienced users that have tried both give input. I think I will run both, simply because most AAS users I have talked to recommended that since I already have a good supply of both, it wouldn't hurt to run both. Again I appreciate the reply!
 
You don't need nolva. Nolva is a tool of the past. Nolva will lower your GH and IGF levels, clomid will not. Nolva is only kept on hand in cases of extreme gyno. You don't need it....especially since you ran an AI. Nolva makes takes a harder toll on your body than clomid.

Drop the nolvadex and stick to the HCG and Clomid...no need to run more than 100mgs of Clomid a day....

How was your first cycle? Fill us in on stength gains, side effects, etc.

something else to point out about your cycle, you didn't run the EQ nearly long enough...EQ should be ran for a minimum 12 weeks and the longer the better, it takes around 8-10 weeks to fully kick in....you need to run the hcg for another three weeks to allow the EQ and Cyp to clear and start PCT 4 days after your last shot of hcg
 
Wish I would have known that info before but thanks maakshif, I have already stopped the hcg and so I assume restarting after a week of being off may confuse my body. The literature I read online made a 10 week cycle at those doses sound perfect for my goals, however I was under the impression that eq would only take as long as the test( 3-4 weeks) to fully kick in.

PARooolller,
I am very happy with the progress made through this cycle. I have had my diet and training on point for almost 2 consecutive years, however I felt the need for that little bit of "un-naturalness" that comes with AAS as well as the want to break my plateau. I did not want magnificent gains because I feel that for my body type, 185lb is the maximum weight I was going for. I got up to 183lb from about 172lb which is exactly where I want to be. I have made somewhat nice progress in strength, although I already felt very strong for my weight. Side effects were no problem whatsoever, except for the increased appetite from eq, which is the best side effect one can hope for. Other than that, I experienced no aggression, no atrophy that I can tell, no hair loss (which I was not predisposed to), and only some slight acne on my back, which I cannot certainly blame only on AAS. I have always had a few pimples here and there on my back, and because I was hitting the gym hard and really breaking a sweat every time, it was more likely caused by that.

I don't think I will use AAS again for a long time simply because I am exactly where I want to be, and as long as I keep my diet and training on point, I feel no need to get any larger.
Thanks again to all the great info provided from you bluelighters!
