First cycle 16 weeks

Hi guys,

Im 19 yo, 1m75 and 75kg

I started taking testosterone a few days ago, gonna do a 16 week cycle at a dose of 250 mg per week, split into two injections of 125 mg each, to help preserve muscle mass while cutting body fat. I didn’t start at the beginning of my diet—I began around week 6 of my cut.

Before starting testosterone, I had already been eating around 1,600 calories per day with the help of retatrutide and had lost approximately 10 kg through diet and training alone with 30 minutes + cardio and atleast 10k steps outside. My main reason for introducing testosterone at that point was to reduce muscle loss during the remainder of the cut, support recovery, and maintain my strength as I continued dieting.

Im am trying to keep everything in check with my health ive done bloodwork before starting the cycle everything was mostly good no issues at all my free test was 18.20, so as for now I will wait untill I get to week 4-5 get my bloodwork done and see how my body reacts to 250mg test e

As for supplements im taking:
Omega 3 fish oil
Coq-10
Vit D
Magnesium

I didnt buy any ancillary but I will for sure get some hcg and ai later on the cycle.

Thanks for reading, and I hope ill get some tips from the experienced guys here.

Hey bro!

I like your mindset. You lost 10 kg before touching testosterone, which tells me you built the foundation first instead of expecting the drugs to do the work.

My advice is simple: don’t rush to add more. Let the 250 mg do its job, get your week 4-5 bloodwork, and adjust only if the data says you need to. Consistency beats complexity every time.

Good luck with the cut, and don’t forget to post before and after photos. That’s the most rewarding part of the journey. 💪

Hey man thanks for the motivation means allot, I wasn’t sure if I should keep going on the cut or start eating maintenance to grow more muscle mass but I came to conclusion that ill just get to the body fat % im targetting and then if all good ill run a second cycle with test 350 and primo 250, and always trying to keep it safe. Less is more in my opinion.
