I asked my friend who is on roids rn to help me with my cycle (we are both 61🔄) he told me to run

350mg test e a week and 50mg anavar a day for 12 weeks and maybe hcg for the last 2 weeks of cycle

He also said i for my cruise dosage of test i should do 200mg every 5 days for 4 weeks then for pct use 20mg tamoxifen a day for 4 weeks and then rest using nothing for 4 weeks
i will be getting bloods next week to dose my arimidex.
Is this a good cycle or nah?

do 500
Gains are log-linear up to 600 mg and well beyond. If you're going with 350mg, you're still shutting yourself down and you're leaving a lot of free gains on the table for nothing.
There's little to no difference in sides between 350 and 500. There's no difference in shutdown between 350 and 500.
Some low responders need as much as 250mg just to reach normal levels of Testosterone as addressed by TRT.
500mg is a low dose in that you can take well over ten times that amount without any Ill effects. 500mg is a low dose in that bodybuilders have long started from there and worked up. 500 is low. 750 is intermediate. 1000+ is a little bit more advanced.
At 350mg, you're putting yourself in the no-man's land just between TRT and a full-on blast where it's difficult to dial in your aromatase inhibitor (AI). Managing your estrogen with an AI is one of the most important things you can learn from your first cycle.

I’m sorry,but your friend is a fucking idiot honestly. You’ll generally get the same benefits from 20mg of anavar as 50mg,and the higher the dose the worse your lipid profile could be damaged. Also you shouldn’t wait to pin test E every 5 days,just because the half life is 5-7 days dosen’t mean that it’s an ideal split for injection. The longer you wait between injections,the more hormonal imbalances you will have and also the result of them so pin every 3 days or ideally use propionate. Also just using tamoxifen for PCT is dogshit,HCG only for 2 weeks is also dogshit you must take HCG (1000IU/w) for about 4-6 weeks and tamoxifen for 6-8 weeks. Also generally not good with armidex dosages and more experienced in Aromasin,but at 350mg of test you should take 6.25mg of Aromasin EOD,and if you notice estrogen fluctuations then do it ED.

yeah i would start at 500 but it all depends if i can get these free blood tests because if not i aint paying like 150 plus for a full hormone panel or do i only need to check my e2 levels?

But generally a very empty cycle,could add in some more. I hate to see people just run only test and anavar,especially if your goal is not only muscle mass. General cycle rating:3-4/10,Cycle in terms of frequency and dosages: 2/10 in my opinion.

What I like to do is start HCG 2-3 weeks before your last injection. But I use 19-NORS and they’re more suppressive so what ideally you need to do is start HCG with the last pin of test of your cycle and then continue using HCG 4-6 weeks after cycle. There’s no reason to take HCG at the start of your cycle,you can run HCG included in your whole cycle and therefore reduce total PCT time but there’s no general reason why you should do at the start.
