I'm gonna throw in my .2 cents, my first cycle consisted of 500mg sustanon, one shot per week (what kind of idiot shoots sust EOD?) as a result I put on about 20 lbs. of lean muscle. My cycle lasted 12 weeks, overall great results, so I highly recommend sust as a first cycle, enanthate and/or cyp will make you retain more water, for a newbie sust is a great product.
