Gotcha. Well, checking your lipids is important obviously if you've used orals, even a milder compound such as Anavar for 12 weeks. I think a comprehensive metabolic panel would be good to ensure kidney and liver values are good also. Although your use is mild, let's make sure that you're at a good baseline to start cycling again. Don't want any hidden health things going on. Bravo on the BP check as well. That's one of the most important metrics. Guys walk around for a long time with elevated BP and ruin organs and once renal stuff happens, no going back. I'd get a CMP and depending on your age, a calcium score also.
Ah, the devil's in the details as they say...4 on 4 off is much better. Didn't provide details. No sweat. Anyway...
Your AI usage or not using it was based on feels and bro science not bloodwork. Bro just cuz your nips aren’t sensitive or a gyno limp forming means nothing as to your actual estrogen levels without bloodwork.
I read that brother! Please bear with me and keep thick skin on the forum. It’s all constructive criticism and is important for decision making. This is the beginning of the journey for you. 1 novice cycle done without doing bloods is a beginner mistake. That’s ok tho bc we all learn from the mistakes we make. Now where you go from here with the info received will be up to you.
Brother I studied, researched, and asked a ton of questions for at least 1yr before I finally decided to run my first cycle. These forums are super helpful. Tons of experience and knowledge from members. Some of these guys have been using AAS for 30yrs.
Glad to hear you've gotten things under control. You know, we're all healthy until we're not. That's a scary place to find yourself. Stay well brothers!
I guess my question would be (to anyone planning a cycle - not directing this specifically at you) would be what's the goal? Is this an off season or more a prep cycle? At that point, you plan your food and training and only then start worrying about compounds. Most people do it backwards.
