The Importance of Pre-Cycle Testing
Before starting a steroid cycle, undergoing a comprehensive blood test is fundamental. This baseline assessment allows you to understand your body's health and identify any pre-existing conditions that may influence your steroid use. Key areas to focus on during your pre-cycle blood test include:

- Liver Function Tests (LFTs): Steroids can put significant stress on the liver. Monitoring enzymes like AST (aspartate aminotransferase) and ALT (alanine aminotransferase) helps assess how well your liver is functioning before introducing steroids.

- Lipid Profile: Steroids can alter cholesterol levels, increasing the risk of cardiovascular issues. A lipid profile will measure your total cholesterol, HDL (good cholesterol), LDL (bad cholesterol), and triglycerides.

- Complete Blood Count (CBC): This test evaluates your overall blood health, checking for red and white blood cells, hemoglobin, and platelets. It provides insight into your immune function and whether you're at risk for anemia.

- Hormone Levels: Assessing your testosterone, estrogen, and other hormone levels can help you gauge how steroids might affect your endocrine system. Testing these levels pre-cycle establishes a reference point for when you complete your steroid regimen.
By conducting these tests, you create a valuable health snapshot that can guide your decisions before and during your steroid cycle.]]>

Chuck Norris was an American martial artist, actor, and author, known for his roles in action films and the television series "Walker, Texas Ranger."

"The actor turned 86 on March 10, just days before his death. He shared a video of himself boxing on his birthday, saying in the video, "I don’t age. I level up." "

I don’t usually post, but I could use some advice. I tried researching first, but with all the mixed opinions I figured I’d just ask directly.

Background & Cycle History
Cycle
Compounds
Dosage / Duration
Notes
1
Test Enanthate
8 weeks: 1ml/week (first 4), 2ml/week (last 4)
Felt incredible—like Superman. Should’ve paid more attention to diet. Focused more on avoiding injury than maximizing results I didn't fully trust my new found powers
2
Test Prop + Winstrol
Test Prop: 1.5ml EOD (often closer to 1.2–1.3ml)
Winny: 40mg ED, weeks 5–10
Preferred Prop over Enanthate. EOD pinning wasn’t an issue. Felt stronger, gained while leaning out, and kept more of my gains post-cycle. Minor sleep issues and a couple anxious nights—nothing major.

For both runs I used 25g 1.5” glute pins—comfortable, but pushing that much oil into one spot is slow and feels like it should be split.

Current Situation
Age: 52
Height/Weight: 5’9”, 204 lbs
Body Fat: ~15% (maybe higher)


I’ve trained on and off my whole life, up until about 10 years ago when life pulled me away from the gym. My first cycle was almost 3 years ago, and since then I’ve been building back consistently. Right now, I still fill out a t-shirt, though I have to stretch it a bit around the waist (if you know, you know). Diet is solid and I’ve been tightening it up for this next run. My focus isn’t cutting—the training and diet should handle that. The goal is to add size and keep progressing.

Gear on Hand
I ended up buying at different times (sales, cycle ideas changing), so now I’ve got a mixed stack:

Test Prop (main base, already planned)

Deca 200 / NPP 150 (impulse buy for a different cycle plan)

Winstrol tabs (sale purchase before deciding on this cycle setup)


My Questions
Is running all three (Test Prop + Deca/NPP + Winny) a bad idea?

If only two are worth stacking, which two—and at what dosages? taking into consideration I want to get over this plateau I'm on and make the jump to the next level.

Orders come quick now, so I can still grab anything else I might need without delaying my start.

At 54, my main concern with Deca is the obvious “Deca dick.” Haven’t had real side effects before, but after 50 SPOILER ALERT that one’s a serious concern.

I don’t want to use everything just because I bought it, but if two of these make a solid combo, I’d like to put them to use.

PCT
So far I’ve only run Clomixyl post-cycle (came with the orders). At what point should I step up to a stronger PCT or add on-cycle support? I’ve read about both, but the options and names get confusing.

Final Note
Thanks for taking the time to read. I wanted to include enough detail so you’ve got the info needed to give me a straight answer. I really respect the knowledge here and always research anything suggested.
I want to do a cycle log and contribute .

Big shout-out to Cornish Celt, Huge Tom, Eazy, and Dragon Slayer—love your posts.

PS If you are reading this, wondering if you should use gbnstore, don't hesitate I would not buy anywhere else. PM me if you have any questions. These guys are great.
