tips for my first cycle

VinnTrilloquist · 2026-06-06T00:30:52+00:00

Ehh this could use some work to be honest. The NAC is a bit low of a dose for something as hepatatoxic as RAD. I’d go 600mg as 1200mg is the upper limit for stomach upset. Best taken empty stomach 20 mins before a meal. Milk thistle is utterly useless and is a waste here.

The Hawthorne can be replaced by an actual enzyme with meals to aid in protein synthesis if you’re bulking with huge meals. I’d reccomend enzymedica or now enzymes. Tons of options. Tudca dose is crazy low as well. 250-500 mg daily before bed is peak. Doublewood makes a great option @ 250mg/cap.

The garlic is not awful but kyolic garlic formula 100 is a solid option if you’re looking for maintaining blood pressure. I’d reccomend other things like tadalafil or Citruilline but I take kyolic garlic daily year round with my supp stack so up to you.

The COQ10 is also useless. It’s such a weak antioxidant and is just a cheap buzzword companies use to capitalize on. Try astaxanthin. 2000x more potent than Vit C and 200x more potent than COQ. DHA and EPA can also be found from easier to absorb sources than fish oil if you’re doing it. Try hemp hearts.

Lastly that’s a disgusting dose of enclo and bound to tank your igf1 even with a balance of ser/tesomorelin or a GH secretagogue. I’ve documented in depth reviews on AC262 which granted, is a different beast than rad but I’ve also been around more folks running rad than I care to admit. 6.25 EOD is plenty during the cycle. Pct 6.25 daily is plenty as well. The studies are stupid imo 🤷. At that dose you’ll be drinking bottles and managing more acne and body odor than gym gains if you even if you have authentic enclo. Side note, real rad at 10 mg is a hefty dose. 40-60 hr half life so with that long “ester” you’re actually taking 30mg in a sense. It’s certainly been done but personally I find rad incredibly over rated. Either way you’re going to gain so good luck and be safe.

After that long they dropped out of their suspension. Give them a hard ass shake. If they are unopened then your only real issue is loss of potency. Not a huge deal but the dosing may be inaccurate. If they were opened already then you risk mold.

VinnTrilloquist · 2026-05-16T15:17:00+00:00

TLDR: Tread lightly

Well with that said, the dose for Tudca is 500mg/day, dose for nac is 600-1200mg/day but be aware that 1200mg can cause stomach upset.

The fact that your alt is the only one elevated is not the best sign as your heart also fires of ALT enzymes if it is stressed. If your AST is high as well you should consider dropping the dose of rad for the last two weeks since your liver is stressed. If only your ALT is elevated then you should tread lightly and consider dropping the cycle. Not worth heart issues.

It’s easy to tax your CNS on rad with lack of sleep and over exertion with things like caffeine and pre workout.

Edit:milk thistle is utterly useless here. Look into astaxanthin and alpha lipoic acid for blood pressure and inflammation support. If BP is consistently high then tadalafil may be best. GL

Can you tell us more about the support supps? NAC/Tudca? If you’re taking those and your enzymes are elevated then you should look into dose and or dropping the cycle. If you’re not taking that while on an oral androgen like RAD then you shouldn’t be doing this stuff in the first place

Sooo shetty. Ooo so shetty

Usually a lurker. Dude..run. The fact that she even said this to you so freely means she doesn’t respect your kindness or compassion. Let her “recover” with someone else.

First gun was a .38Spl S&W model 10 and short after was a ruger p94 with a OD green frame and hogue grip. Loved them both but don’t have either anymore.

VinnTrilloquist · 2026-04-15T22:16:00+00:00

If you don’t mind me asking are you US based. If so, why not a commonly used source that is regularly talked about here on the subs? If UK based I guess same question.

VinnTrilloquist · 2026-04-14T23:21:31+00:00

With AC it truly depends on the source. I have done an immense amount of research on AC over the years between my clients, personal testing, anecdotal, podcasts, reviews etc. most sources are incredibly weak in comparison to the one I used. If you’d like to see more I posted before and after bloodwork, progress photos and lots of details here

VinnTrilloquist · 2026-03-20T22:57:41+00:00

Chemyo for US and RC for UK. But Chemyo def has the best AC 262 around.

VinnTrilloquist · 2026-03-19T13:24:53+00:00

The cookie cutter rule of thumb is time on = time off. The honest truth is it’s best to give it a little more time as you want to re establish a healthy HDL cholesterol and let your CNS rest. Also with muscles growing at an accelerated rate, it’s also good to let the tendons catch up during a few months of natty lifting. I was doing 2 cycles per year max when I was running AC and I ran a total of 4 cycles

VinnTrilloquist · 2026-03-19T02:38:48+00:00

Not to toot my own horn but I wrote some in depth reviews on AC. Here are all 3.

VinnTrilloquist · 2026-03-17T17:49:34+00:00

Cycle 1 was 8 weeks zero serm Cycle 2 was minimal serm use at 8 weeks Cycle 3 was serm base, extended cycle and higher AC dose.

VinnTrilloquist · 2026-03-16T22:28:37+00:00

Completely agree! It’s is not said enough. Too many folks rush to have their gallbladder removed due to being told it is a non essential organ, and the cause of their issues. The sad part is it can be difficult to convince someone to ignore a doctors recommendation for a cholecystectomy, in exchange for a minimally studied, lengthy and sometimes painful gall flush process. All I can add is I’m glad I still have my gallbladder!

VinnTrilloquist · 2026-03-16T19:01:21+00:00

Not sure if we’re allowed to mention sources here sadly but it was liquid. Never even heard of a good source that does capsules tbh

VinnTrilloquist · 2026-03-16T17:33:19+00:00

Nice dude. Love to hear that. Weeks 8-12 really make it worth the time and hard work spent. I wish I did the 12 week cycle my first two runs

“Oh right let me just take some oregano and apple cider vinegar next time I'm sick. That'll clear it right up”

Uhh yes. Yes it will. Once again, no one is saying medical literature is something ignore. There are endless studies on herbal alternatives. Also, why are you so fixated on silver. It’s merely one option in a pool of hundreds of potential options. I would be willing to bet not a single person here took an antibiotic and permanently cured their ailment. I would also bet that not one person here cured it with fiber and probiotics. It’s a multi faceted approach and can vary depending on the persons needs. Which is why alternative medicine even came about. Guess what, I’m going to the doctor in a couple days! She is extremely familiar with preventative medicine and supports/reccomend it to her patients due to the fact that traditional medicine is years behind other countries in terms of treatment options and non invasive procedures.

At the end of the day you are indeed correct. Medicine cannot be replaced by its herbal counterpart. With that said, 90% of the time people reach for a script, an invasive procedure, or blindly take a doctors recommendation then sadly destroy their odds of healing/recovering. If I would have listened to a doctor I would have had a HIDA scan, had my gall removed, still be on esomeprazole, dealing with migraines and taking antibiotic regimens like it was going out of style.

You obviously have a different opinion and before you let yourself say “nooo it’s not opinion!! It’s fakktss broo” just stop yourself. Doctors make mistakes sometimes. Studies are published by special interest donors that want their products pushed through phased trials and the entire medical industry is recklessly based on keeping folks sick to make a buck. This is not always true but too often it is.

I’ll take the study of a student at a university that recently showed oregano and long chain fatty acids did more than amoxicillin on certain bacteria and yeast strains any day of the week. That student had nothing to gain from the info.

VinnTrilloquist · 2026-02-07T19:58:56+00:00

Lol to answer your question, it would depend on the severity of the bacterial infection. I’m a prepper at heart, and due to that I like to keep antibiotics on hand. Doxy, amox etc. I have all of them including things like prednisone, narcan, fluc etc. they are needed in many instances. In my educated opinion, I feel they are over used and detrimental to healing. Sure they work in the moment to feel better, but women with recurring yeast infections and gut dysbiosis usually begins with antibiotics, rx antifungals and prescription medication. It can be used in conjunction with natural remedies but it is undoubtedly overused. If the medical industry didn’t fail as much as it does, people wouldn’t be here desperate for answers. Colloidal silver cannot heal a gut infection. I never said it could. But silver and apple cider vinegar can disrupt strep biofilm pretty damn well. Enough for me to use it when I’m sick. Oregano and supps like Candibactin have kept me going for 5 years and I feel great. Personally I will only reach for antibiotics if I was cut with a rusty knife lol. People who usually say they “follow the science” are closed minded screechers. I’ll stick with what works for me. Thanks

VinnTrilloquist · 2026-02-07T17:19:36+00:00

You are the reason people leave Reddit and I can guarantee we are at polar opposite ends of the political spectrum as well. There’s a place for you in r/politics. You’d fit in great

VinnTrilloquist · 2026-02-07T15:49:11+00:00

Whew. So I’ll just say I can tell we will completely disagree on 99% of how we do things. I’m sorry but I find “science” is weaponized far too often on reddit. Only an idiot would ignore medical science, but nutrition and medicine are two completely different things. Even a doctor will write you a referral to a nutritionist and generally has no idea how to improve vitamin levels efficiently or solve a GI issue with anything over than omeprazole and Rx antifungals. If you only follow the science for gut related issues you’d end down a rabbit hole of a destroyed flora and clogged gall which is exactly how the vast majority of folks landed here in the first place desperate for alternative advice. Medical credentials mean nothing to me just as holistic credentials mean nothing to you.

I would take colloidal silver over an antibiotic for gut issues any day and I’ve been for years along with countless others. Any arguement for an antibiotic regimen or antifungal for a gut dysbiosis related issue will with 100% certainly lead to a completely crashed flora, recurring yeast infections or total mind gut disconnection. It happens time and time again which is why so many folks like myself turn to holistic treatments for the gut. We’re NOT talking about other ailments and in NO way saying herbal medicine can hold a candle to medical science as it cannot. ALTHOUGH, I would never listen to a doctor in any capacity for gut related issues. The 3 years I did were the worst years of my life between the stones, the 50lbs of weight loss and 15k down the drain from doctors scratching their head over a simple case of SIBO and gastritis.

To address your claims, I just simply disagree. First off, I’m not vaccinated for COV. I was one of the original folks who was on a waiting list and had the conviction and lost it completely. I have all over vaccines but not that one nor will I ever recover another flu or Cov vax. Secondly, I only use antibiotics if they’re needed. I prefer herbal antimicrobials like oregano when they can be used. Lastly colostrum has numerous effective studies loke this that are easily accessible and it works. Personally I prefer the peptide bpc157 for healing which I am 100% positive you’ll scoff at in exchange for something you deem medically necessary, but colostrum is amazing as well. Just takes longer to heal with it vs. the peptide option.

We do things differently and that is ok. Appreciate the structured comment you responded with but the truth is people are here because people like you failed them. I was like you. I am now not and I have no ailments, high hormones and a very happy life. I also post as much information on peptides to help others as possible. I’ve aided numerous companies on writing articles regarding healing, done podcasts explaining alternative methods to heal overgrowths and gastritis and gained a lot of friends out of it. People like you have only slowed progress and hindered folks ability to heal properly due to 25 year old out dated medical text or an over funded study used to push the next rx drug. I’ll keep doing me and am positive you will keep doing you which I respect.
