Good morning, my friend,
Thanks for sharing your protocoll.
I had a few questions:
  • What was the reason for switching from Testosterone Cypionate to Testosteronee Enanthate?
  • Do you think the Arimidex dosage might be on the higher side?
  • Have you considereed incorporating Telmisartan for kidney protection and support of the RAAS (renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system)?

When do you plan to start this cycle? And can we see a "before" photo?

The reason I switched esters was because on the driada site there wasn't any test Enanthate available so I ordered the test cypionate, I might adjust the arimidex based on how much I feel the nipples and yeah probably split in half, and my creatinine levels are fine on cycle so I shouldn't be so cautious with telmisartan...
 
Current physique at 88 KG, European genetics 🧬 💯
Damn good! So that’s what 12% body fat looks like 😁 .

By the way, there’s always this question about body fat percentage. How did you determine yours?
I recently came across a reel where a guy got tested and was told he had obesity — 20% body fat. His home scale also showed 20%. But in reality, he had a contest-ready physique and looked absolutely shredded (based on your 12%, he was probably closer to 8%).
 
For some reason, your photo on the right reminded me of the physique of athletes from Arnold's time. I’m not sure why, maybe it’s the muscle definition and shape, but it feels like you're from that era. Сool!

I got some of Arnold genetics but I really can't tell why, since my father was an orphan...
