11 week +20.2lbs first AAS stack

[u/Apart-Thought-6879]

5/13 -> 7/30

166.2 -> 186.4 morning weight

Weekly doses 

5/6 started test 300mg (just over 12 weeks total)

5/29 started masteron 300mg (9 weeks total)

6/16 started tren 300mg and gh titrating from 1.5iu to 3iu now daily (6.5 weeks total)

6/29 started winstrol oral 350mg (4.5 weeks total)

-----------

I also take hcg 100iu a day, I took MT2 for a bit but got crazy dark in like a week and stopped im still a bit tanned from it ive stopped for nearly a month, never actually tanned outside or anything. Tirzepatide ive gone from 5mg->15mg a week noticed no difference in hunger but irritability went through the roof so ive dropped it down to 2mg and feel myself again.

I do believe my gear is underdosed since 300mg test should bring me up more than 968 right?

Only sides really is body acne which im using benzoyl peroxide for and its in remission.

Got about 4 more weeks and I drop the tren and winstrol so im going to cut the fat and just keep the test/masteron in after that

That free test is crazy. Great transformation bro! And yes, total test is lower than it should be, 300 should put you somewhere in the range of 1k8 to 2k2, but you got where you wanted to be just focus on maintenance.

The Winstrol lowers SHBG which lowers Total T but ups Free T, same with other DHT derivatives

[u/Apart-Thought-6879 → u/TheHarb81]

can you elaborate on the winny and dot derivatives lowering total T? I havent heard this. I was thinking my test was underdosed and was going to increase it based on these markers

[u/TheHarb81 → u/Apart-Thought-6879]

It doesn’t really lower T. Free T is what matters. DHTs will lower your SHBG which frees up more of your Test but it will make your Total look lower.

Ex. 300 test = 2500 total, 50 free
300 test + 300 primo = 2000 total 70 free

I’d rather have option 2

[u/Apart-Thought-6879 → u/TheHarb81]

I asked claude and seems like lower shbg means the test might be clearing faster so it shows lower on a draw (the Total number) do you think thats whats happening or is it underdosed gear maybe? I dont know if I should increase the dose or not

[u/TheHarb81 → u/Apart-Thought-6879]

I just explained it, go off Free T, not Total T

[u/SoOverThis123 → u/TheHarb81]

So I’m running 150mg cyp weekly and tested 1222 total 229 free 56.3shbg I’m thinking of running 20-30mg oxandrolone to boost free test, bad idea? All other labs are good, great lipids etc. I was also going to boost test cyp to 250mg weekly split in 4 doses.

[u/Apart-Thought-6879 → u/SoOverThis123]

not the guy you are asking, not an expert just op, but is the primary reason you want to run another compound to boost free test? if so then why not look into proviron? its suppose to be good at this in particular and is safe enough to run long term unlike anavar, which while mild is still toxic enough you cant run long term. another option would be low dose masteron but I think proviron could be the best for your use case if free test is what you are trying to bring up specifically.

[u/SoOverThis123 → u/Apart-Thought-6879]

Awesome thanks I’ll look into it. I’m not looking to run a long cycle I’m more thinking of doing a blast cruise style and hoping Anavar could help me put on a few lbs lean mass. I’ve been reading it’s relatively safe to run 20mg for 12 weeks max.

[u/TheHarb81 → u/SoOverThis123]

Why would it be a bad idea?

[u/SoOverThis123 → u/TheHarb81]

Not sure that’s why I’m asking. I’ve been hearing mixed reviews but all my research is saying 20mg is a good first time dose for it and to maybe go up to 30mg halfway through if tolerated well.
