Do you work at GNC?
I wouldn't bother taking NO supplement during your 1-T use, save it for later. That post cycle supplement is just a test booster it looks like. Ok to include, but I wouldn't really call that a complete "PCT". (sorry about that thumbs down icon, I didn't mean to do that and I can't change it) |
BTW, no I don't work at GNC. Would be nice for the discounts though, lol.

I'm new to this 1T product, but I'm not new to the gym. I'm seriously considering using 1T. I'm wondering if I can get some help on how to properly cycle off this product upon completion of the cycle. I'm always interested in products that'll help me achieve great gains in the gym, but I'm not looking to get messed up by any crazy products either. If anyone can share some information on proper post cycle therapy, I'd appreciate it greatly. Thanks guys and stay safe in the gym!

I'm coming off a very successful cut and am looking into a bulk phase now. I'll be using the following products on top of the usual vitamins and whey protein:
Universal Shock Therapy Universal Storm Primordial Performance 1-T After the 1-T cycle is complete (probably about 3 - 4 weeks) I plan on using PowerLab Post-Cycle for PCT. I just had a couple questions about all of this. First, will Post-Cycle alone be good enough for a PCT after using the 1-T? Also, does the stack seem safe and will it be okay to continue using the Shock Therapy and Storm during PCT? I only plan on one cycle of 1-T for now. Any thoughts, comments, or deas? Thanks in advance! |
Id at least throw Sustain in the PCT too.

That's good enough for me. I'll order the 1-T and TRS within the next few hours. Now I just need to wait for a response to my other thread in here. Wanna make sure it's safe to stack with my other products (Shock Therapy and Storm.)
Thanks for all the help! |

Today is my 1st day of PCT after a 4 week epistane cycle. I'll be using Sustain Alpha, Toco-8 and Lean Xtreme (instead of EndoAmp) starting next week since I've got an old bottle I need to use and I'll be cutting until my 1-T cycle in a few months.
Here are my questions:
1) Is there any benefit to run a very low dose of clomid (25mg/day) for the first 1-2 weeks of PCT just to kick start test production? I have quite a bit of clomid on hand, so I feel like I might as well use a little bit if it will help me retain my gains.
2) I'm wondering if you have any thoughts on using Tongkat Ali with Sustain and Toco-8. I have a very good source for 1:50 extract, and I've run a couple standalone cycles @4g ED and also used it in PCT with good results. I believe some rodent studies showed a 400% increase in testosterone production at sufficiently high doses, and its supposed to have numerous other health benefits such as inducing apoptosis in breast cancer cells and causing cytoxicity to lung cancer cells. Its supposed to block negative feedback to the hypothalamus ultimately leading to increased LH secretion, although I am unsure of how it does this. So I'm wondering if it is doing this in a way that works outside of inhibition of the GABA/opiod receptor, could it have synergistic effect with Sustain Alpha at increasing LH secretion?
Just wanted to say thanks again for your great service and prompt response to my previous questions.

The longjack isn’t a bad idea but it may be smarter to run this after the TRS so have something to fall back on. Plus, I’m not well educated on the exact mechanism of action for the longjack so without knowing I couldn’t say for sure if it would really have a synergistic or counterproductive effect with Sustain.

The clomid would be fine for 2 weeks at that dose. I would use anymore than that.

Back again.
I'm almost 2 weeks through my cycle. Been good so far.
However...
I'm trying to find some Nolva from a different website other than AG guys. Does anyone know of any other reliable ones. I read up on all the complaints against them and have decided not to order from there.
I've tried researching it online and haven't turned up any good sites.
Thanks.

Started training on 10/28 - according to BOD POD 10/28- Weight 174- 17.4% fat , 30 pounds of Fat - 143 Fat Free Mass - Started hard training.
on 12/15 am improving - I weighed 176 (up 2 pounds) at 15.5% body Fat (down 2%) - 5 9" - 149 fat free mass (up 6 pounds) - 27 pounds of fat (down 3 pounds) - 38 years old measured by a BOD POD on 12/15.
I am training 5 to 6 days a week (4 muscle days). Eating 700 calories less than I burn 6 of 7 days and then eating all of my calories (adding carbs) 1 day of the week. 40-45% protien - 40-35% Carbs - 20% Fats - Very Low Sugars - and lots of lean Chicken and Turkey. Total Calories around 2100 depending on training.
My goals 8 weeks later on 1/27/09: 12/3 to 1/27
1. Libidio and Test back to normal (Getting married in Mexico on 1/31/09)very important
2. 12% Body Fat (Need to go from 27 pounds of fat to 21 pounds - Lose 6 pounds in 6 weeks)
3. Would like to add 6 pounds of Muscle - Total weight 175
I will run my T-1 for 4 full weeks ending on 12/31.
On 1/1/09 I will start PCT with Sustain 5 on 2 off and toco-8 & endoamp. I will have 4 weeks to get my test and libidio in full swing for the honeymoon.
Here are my questions & Thank you in advance for my answers!
1. Should I consider running 5 weeks of T-1 or will that not give me enough time for my Libidio (3.5 weeks to the wedding) - Is my plan of 4 weeks on and 4 weeks off better?
2. I was going to add 6-oxo extreme with my PCt cycle - (ZMA and 6-oxo) - Is this a good idea or over kill? I already have the 6-oxo extreme?
3. MY MAIN QUESTION - what type of diet and training should I use for my 4 week PCT - High Protien, Low Carb with more cardio. I will need to lose about 2% more body fat - 3.5 pounds in 4 weeks. Will this bring my test back?
4. Finally, what are your thoughts about running 11-oxo the last 2 weeks of my t-1 cycle to help shed some fat?
Thanks & waiting for your response.

I would get off the 1-T now and start the PCT. Avoid the 6-oxo. It won’t help and it will eventually have a negative effect on your libido because it appears to be an anti-androgen. I’ve had debates with Patrick Arnold about this, and he doesn’t appear to have any defense, except that “6-oxo sells well”.
Take advantage of the anti-catabolic action of 1-T move into a very low carb state until the end of the cycle [even lower than you are now] and then gradually build back up the carbohydrate intake until your wedding. If you wanted to include 11-oxo now until the end of the cycle that should be fine.

Sorry, I did not follow your post. First you said get off of the T-1 now.
Does that mean today at only 3 weeks in or did you mean at the end of the 4th week? Why get off after only 3 weeks?
Then you said move into a very low carb state until the end of the cycle and then gradually build back up the carbs until your wedding. Are you saying for the next week go to a mix of 50% protien 25% fat and 25% carbs until the t-1 cycle ends in 1 week... Then slowly add carbs for my 4 week PCT cycle?
Thanks and sorry,
Andy

ATD killed my libido and I've heard claims (haven't seen studies) of it blocking androgen receptors. But 6-oxo has my libido at puberty levels. Why do you think it's an anti-androgen ?
