I have always perfered long esters like "E", just me, I think everyone responds a little different. I have always made solid gains and for me the "Feeling" and "Mood" including sex drive has kept me coming back for years! @ 600mg weekly. age 47

So far so good. Pinning every 3.5 days. My only complaint is the pin site pain...it's been horrible in the morning...so bad I can't use the affected body part at all! I also feel like the test has kicked in already but I know it's to early so maybe it's just the plecibo effect. I'm at about 189lbs.

Get ya some slin pins and pin everyday. You won't feel anything and this completely eliminates sides for me as well.

I agree 100%. In my minuscule experience I have already learned pinning frequency makes a big difference. I believe it was the volume that caused all the pain. I was using a slin pin, warmed the vial, and went slow, so it had to be the volume. Anyways I'm convinced I'm feeling the effects already. So far so good. 190lbs

Are you back loading the slin pin so you do not dull it. Why aren't you running an ai during your cycle instead of tamox. Tamox would be better used in pct with Clomid IMO

I am running this cycle for prob 10-12 weeks. I am using tamox this time cause I want to see how it works for me during cycle, instead of an AI. During my last cycle I used an AI and as soon as I had started it my gains stopped. I also had a lot of joint pain after coming off cycle. I've been reading and still wondering....is it better to use an AI and kill ur estrogen, or is it better to let ur estrogen levels increase along with your test levels and then just block the receptor sites?? Ive read so many different opinions I figured I would just try it for myself and see how it went. I have an AI on hand if needed.

Using an ai isn't going to kill your estrogen with a standard dose at most it will drop your estrogen 50-60 %. Can you run labs to see what's going on? That will be the only way to take the guessing out of this

As for the pain, what mg is your test? 250, 300? I'm not sure the volume is the issue. You shouldn't be in the amount of pain you're describing. If it negatively affects the way you train, it's not worth it IMO. Maybe that's not the case.

The test is 300/ml. I've done 1ml in each glute (was going to pin once per week with a 1200mg week 1 loading dose but after the first ml in each glute i decided not to do the loading dose) then i was going to switch to every 3.5 days so i tried .5ml in each shoulder...the next day I woke up suffering and unable to do anything with my arms. I then decided I would try pining about 28.5 units every day. Last night I tried the 28.5units in my quad. It wasnt as bad but I'd say it was still enough to keep me from doing legs the next day. I could push through the pain but I'm not sure if that is a good idea of not?? I'm really thinking about switching compounds or something. I'm going to continue with the every day pinning for now. Advice?

PM me brudda. I'll get you straightened out or get you to someone who can. Something is definitely wrong, I think. No way you should be having pain like this. Did you have this issue on your first cycle?

After reading your posts I am thinking its the oil or what ever else is in the base. Might consider manufacturer, who where came from. I seldom have issues with 300 mg test e or eq 300 or deca 300, only some temp. muscle soreness

I had some soreness during my first cycle but not as bad. Must be the gear from what you guys are saying. Going to pin every day and see how it goes.

Did my 28.5 units in the glute. Not bad at all. We will see how it feels tomorrow. I'm hoping maybe my quad and shoulders hurt so bad because I've never pined in them before.
