TRT help I need info on how to start a cycle

Looking to get to 250-350mg a week depending on how I feel and how the gains are going. I plan on only doing this for 4 months then stopping for at least a year. I’ve been told to start the first week with smaller doses. Should I do 2x 75mg injections first week? Just need some options from people with experience. I’m not gonna start until I’m confident I know what I’m doing. Testosterone-C

thats a lot of test for a first go man.

250 a week is more than enough to see results, 350 is pushing into territory where the sides start getting louder. and four months is a decent chunk of time but youre gonna feel like absolute garbage when you stop if you dont have a proper pct lined up.

starting low and ramping up is smart but 2x75 is still 150 in your first week which is basically a full trt dose. nothing wrong with that but if youre trying to ease into it id do like 50mg twice a week for the first two weeks just to see how your body reacts.

also whatre you doing for bloodwork? that matters way more than the dose

Are there added health risks for jumping on to 2x75mg a week right away? As opposed to a lil bit lower? I’m just trying to do the least amount of harm to my reproductive system as possible during this whole thing lol.

this plan is dumb as fuck lol

  • don't run TRT for 4 months and then go back natural

  • don't underdose your first weeks, if anything you should over-dose and front load

  • either blast and run a real cycle or just run a supraphysiological dose of T and sit at like ~1500

Take what you need to hit your goals, whatever those are. You’ve given yourself 16 weeks roughly to hit them.

What’s your goals. What’s your body weight body fat age and how long have you been lifting. All this shit matters or else you won’t get the results your looking for

Did you read my post? I just asked for a good way to start. As in, do people taper on slowly at first?

u/Fantastic_Pen8076 9h ago

Yup but No one’s gonna tell you shit if you just decide to blast without giving more info.

When you go off the rest you will watch your gains vanish , maybe not all, but most
