Hey everyone -- need some experienced user advice.

So I am a small motherfcker I am 5'3" and I am now hitting 161 lbs with pretty minimal bodyfat like 11-13%

I am trying to gain strength and size and hit 170 lbs

Then I would like to cut down to 155 lbs 8% BF

The most I have taken on cycle is 500mg Test E 200 primo (last cycle 8 weeks)
Did 500mg my first cycle 8 weeks
Cruise on 125mg test between

My cycle thoughts
750mg test
400mg primo
Run for 12 weeks (first 3 weeks taper up)

or

750mg test
500 EQ
Run for 12-14 weeks

When I went higher on the primo, I felt low E sides. I am pretty new to this brothers.

Any and all help appreciated to help me be the most jacked hobbit I can be -

You can gain 10lbs of lean tissue in 12 months without a cycle.

@Send0 I have been feeding in a 10-15% Surplus --- 10% on days I don't have appetite and I have been gaining, but want to add gasoline.

you don't need gasoline to gain 10lbs in 12 months 🙄. You definitely don't need 1.2g of gear.

Do you even know what your natural testosterone levels currently are? If so then post your blood work before we give recommendations.

This is what I'm hearing, you want to gain about 10 lb and drop a little body fat. You don't need gear to do that.

Do you have some other goals?

If you learn to bench those numbers, I want to know how!
I will log the progress, I do not know how long it will take but when I hit it I'll share and verify with a recording or something

fat gain is normal, it can't be avoided if you are serious about putting on mass. If you're that concerned then lower your caloric intake, because it's diet that determines how much fat gets stored... drugs have little to do with that.

You gained 14lbs in 8 weeks last time, so just do 500mg of testosterone again. If it isn't broke then don't fix it.
