Bloodwork on cycle?

[gunz78]

I will be getting my total testosterone, estradiol, prolactin, and liver function tested. Any other tests I should be getting done?

 

[aimanabolic]

Are you on a cycle, TRT, or is this pre-bloodwork?

 

[Fleezy]

lipids and CBC with diff

 

[gunz78]

I’m on cycle test 750 per week and drol 50mg pre workout

 

[hogan87]

add CMP. It includes alt/ast for liver function and more.

 

[gunz78]

Ok rather than add to what I already have can someone who has good knowledge just list everything I should get tested while on 750 test and 50 drol pre workout with 1.25 letro every 3rd day. Thanks

That’s a brutal amount of Letro IMO. How do you feel?

I don't agree 2.5mg letro per week for most will be ideal with 750-1000mg test to keep E2 at 30-40

You’re the pro coach but I just don’t know why anyone would use Letro for E2 management especially on 750mgs of Test. Lol that’s my cruise dose with no AI lol.

someone may not react to other IA - I have it like that and only letro works for me @bbxtreme and @Doitagain can confirm it because they saw my blood tests and adex and aromasin do nothing for me and letro in a small dose controls e2 perfectly

Yeah as we’ve discussed offline there are some cases where aromosin or adex won’t touch E2. This applies to me on higher amounts of tren.

It’s much less harsh on the body IMO to use a little Letro 2-3 times a week at a minimum viable dosage then to try and keep ramping up Aromosin or Adex which will certainly impact lipids and not move E2.

We’ve both done bloodwork both ways and the second path with Letro is less impact on markers.

Exceptions prove the rule.
They're uncommon but DO exist.
I don't respond to other drugs as well in inexplicable ways.

I can tell you this in my 20+ years of cycling letro is the only thing that has worked for me! I’ve tried pharm grade aromasin, added, ralox, nolvadex all did not work to prevent gyno. I’ll also go a step further and share if you get gyno surgery make sure you triple check the surgeons qualifications! I’ve had the surgery 3 separate times and it was never completely removed and I still to this day have problems with gyno

 

[gunz78]

Thank you everyone for your responses! Again if anyone could share a detailed set of markers they would check on cycle like myself please let me know

What’s your body fat typically when in maintenance?

I have listed what I suggest and run each time out in my AMA thread. But to make it easier I just took screenshots of my orders.

These are the exact test I order each time from Ulta Labs. The only thing that didn’t fit was thyroid- free and total T3/T4, prolactin and ferritin.

I care more about E2 than estrogen. I’m just OCD and like to run both.

This would be good markers for a lifestyle guy to run every 4-6 months. Someone competing at a top level could do more often based on their program.

Brother I really appreciate this! Very detailed some of the markers you list I don’t even know what they are looking for. It’s crazy all of these years of doing this and I never cared to check my bloodwork until recently from a rec drug problem. Sadly this almost killed me and now in recovery everything about my health matters to me!

My bodyfat always stays fairly low the worst it’s ever been is around 12%

But 30-40 isn't a bit low for a growth phase?
Shouldn't we stay more near 50? Or doesn't change much....
