A good beginner cycle depends on how aggressive you want to be and whether you're okay with injecting or prefer orals. Here's a balanced beginner steroid cycle that's commonly used and considered relatively safe when done right:
This is the gold standard for a first cycle.
Cycle Length: 10–12 weeks
Compound: Testosterone Enanthate or Cypionate
Dose: 300–500 mg/week (split into two injections: e.g., Mon & Thurs)
Start 2 weeks after your last injection.
Clomid: 50 mg/day for 2 weeks, then 25 mg/day for another 2 weeks
or
Nolvadex: 40 mg/day for 2 weeks, then 20 mg/day for 2 weeks
You could try a SARM cycle, like:
It’s weaker than testosterone but easier on the body and legal in some places.
Would you like help designing a diet and workout plan to go along with this? Or want a cycle that’s more fat-loss focused instead of bulking?
Beginner Testosterone-Only Cycle (Injectable)
This is the gold standard for a first cycle.
Cycle Length: 10–12 weeks
Compound: Testosterone Enanthate or Cypionate
Dose: 300–500 mg/week (split into two injections: e.g., Mon & Thurs)
Optional Add-ons:
- Aromatase Inhibitor (AI): Arimidex 0.25 mg every other day if estrogen-related side effects show (like gyno or water retention).
- Liver support: Not needed for injectables.
Post Cycle Therapy (PCT) – This is essential
Start 2 weeks after your last injection.
Clomid: 50 mg/day for 2 weeks, then 25 mg/day for another 2 weeks
or
Nolvadex: 40 mg/day for 2 weeks, then 20 mg/day for 2 weeks
Expected Gains (with proper diet & training):
- 5–10 kg (11–22 lbs) of lean mass
- Improved strength and recovery
- Slight water retention
Important Tips:
- Get bloodwork before, during (week 6), and after the cycle.
- Have AI and PCT drugs on hand before starting.
- Inject properly: sterile gear, rotate injection sites, never reuse needles.
If You’re Afraid of Needles:
You could try a SARM cycle, like:
Ostarine (MK-2866) – Safer Option (Oral):
- Dose: 20 mg/day for 8 weeks
- PCT: Nolvadex 20/20/10/10 (4 weeks)
It’s weaker than testosterone but easier on the body and legal in some places.
