1st cycle newbie
6 weeks into my first cycle, 500/MG Test en/wk. 6'3 started at 242lbs, start of week 6 I'm at 255, diet has remained the same. Haven't noticed much bloat or excessive water retention, have enjoyed it so far. Strength and muscle tone/mass has been improving.
My questions: 1) my jaw is sore as a motherfucker. Not really cramping but annoying enough to notice thru most of the day. Anyone else get this as a side during a cycle? I know I'm not doing much at all w just Test.
2) I have arimidex on hand, but as noted I haven't seen an excessive amount of bloat or water gain, I know I have according to scale but not that noticable. Would arimidex help dry out a little before ending the cycle, if so, is it worth it to run .5mg /eod for maybe the last 4 weeks or so? Or would you just leave it out unless sides become apparent
Cycle planned for 12 wks, w nolva as pct.
Any input or personal experience is appreciated!

Good thinking on your part to use the AI as needed. I would just leave it out and use it as sides become apparent honestly. As far as the jaw goes, no idea man. Might add 4 weeks 50mg of clomid w/ your PCT.

I have the exact same thing my friend. I subconsciously clench my jaw and grind my teeth when I'm on cycle. Its great because it lets me know my test is legit.......
As far as AI, I am of the belief that you shouldn't use it till you have sides. Others are of the belief that you should take it as soon as your first pin. Its up to you to weigh up the risk/reward ratio in your head and decide. Basically without bloods, you will never truly know where your estrogen is it. If you want to be 100% safe, take a small dose of AI, get bloods, see where your estro is at the adjust from there.
See if you can get your hands on some clomid for your PCT. Proper PCT is the most important part of any cycle.

I did get pre bloods done, will check a few weeks after pct is complete, so I had planned on using Nolvadex for pct, but should I start to get ahold of some clomid instead? From what I've researched the main difference between the 2 for pct use was personal preference, have you guys had issues with nolva before?

Thanks I'll grab some, I've never clinched my jaw while sleeping before, but I think I've paid attention to everything a lot more than normal since starting this first cycle.

Hahaha magnesium has saved me on many occasions with the jaw clenching it helps relax the muscle.

Take both the clomid and nolvadex for your PCT. I bought a massive stash of clomid from pharmacom so I'll never run out
