So, I thought I might brighten your Monday by sharing the really stupid thing I almost did.

I was ordering my first batch of Test E for my first cycle. My first cycle involves two weekly 250mg pins, as per the usual first cycle. I saw that the bottle I was ordering said 250mg and was $49. So I, being a total moron, started to freak out thinking that I would need to buy two of those bottle for each week of the cycle, totaling up to almost 1k for a cycle. Only a minute or two later did I noticed the whole 250mg/1ml part and that the bottle contained 10ml.

So, not much more to the story than that. I'm an idiot and can't read apparently.

MATH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lets see...hmmmm
250mg 2x/week =500mg
250mg/ml x 10 = 2500mg
1 vial = approx 5 weeks
1 12 week cycle = ? vials :32 (19):

Try your hand at cycle math!

I know that now! At first I read it as 250mg in the whole thing. I missed the 10ml per bottle part at first. :32 (1):

So, 250mg x 2 times a week, times 12 weeks with 10cc per vial,at 250mg per ml, how many vials needed for this cycle and whats the remainder of that sum?
If you can solve this one, youre a genius in my book.

I always excelled at math. Then I had to start figuring cycle doses and bottles and shit......then I realized I'm an idiot.

I always excelled at math as well, luckily i had one of those teachers that was like, so if johny had 10 bottles of test at 250mg per ml how many mg would a 10 ml bottle have and how many needles would johny need. So I was able to easily comprehend it, LOL
They just taught better back in my day, unlike today.

No shame in almost making a mistake but catching it. Now, had you actually pinned a full vial twice a week, that would be a story!

On a side note, I think 500/week for 12 weeks is a little too week. I would start there but have enough on hand to increase and run longer if you decide. Personally I would get 4 vials if they're 10ml each of 250mg/ml

I always sucked at math so I would just order like 6 bottles of everything and hope I didn't run out.

Of course now I have like 1 bottle of every anabolic on earth... maybe I will just blend them all into one huge jug and see what happens.

For those of us who forget how to math.

What difference if any would you see from 15 weeks compared to the standard 12?

Other than a couple extra pins and your test staying up longer, would there be any extra noticeable benefits?

Good lord man! Everyone knows you can't end a cycle on an odd week. It's gotta be 16!
