Hey guys, long story short... I was an avid lifter and crossfit trainer well I was active duty in the army, I was in the best shape of my life and has used prohormones twice (3-ad and superdrol). I let that all go after an injury and went into a slump, I spent some time inactive and gaining wait then 2 years ago I got back into the gym heavy and have bee training hard since. I did fail to cleanup my diet this past 2 years, I've been eating whatever I want and just making my daily protein goal. I decided before I tipped into doing a cycle I should get labs, turned out my HDL and LDL were normal range but the ratio between the two wasn't optimal, and my triglycerides were 250 so obviously way high there. I'm sure it's directly related to my crap diet and lack of cardio.
Now to get to the point, I want to run a cycle so I setup an appointment for labs 6 months out, eating super clean and adding cardio in 5 days a week, hoping in 6 months my numbers are optimal. My BF is currently about 18% so of course estrogen conversion would also be high at the moment.
Now question is if my labs are optimal in 6 months should I be concerned about a basic cycle throwing them off really bad? I am not exactly sure how large the impact is on a test only cycle.
So in consideration... would running something mild like anavar and a low test dose or hcg with the var have less impact vs. running 500mq test/week? Ultimately I want to run the cycle so I can drop to a large calorie deficit and get as lean as I possibly can. I know some people will disagree as if its my first cycle I should capitalize on the gains and eat big and clean but part of me would like my first for getting lean, as I have read the first cycle typically has the largest impact if done right. And mind you I don't mean using a cycle at 18% BF to lean down, I mean when I'm down to 12-14ish to drop to under 10. I really dislike the weak feeling of cutting....
Anyway.. any input fellas? Especially on the lipid impact?
