500 or 750

[blowitup]

my brother is starting his first run of test E next week and he told me he was going to do 750 a week instead of the traditional 500 to start off-when I asked him why he would do this he simply thought that since he is 31 and has been training/dieting for well over a decade his body can handle it-which I thought made no sense what so ever since I took 500 my first go around along with 30mgs of D and blew up-any thoughts on this? I would think 750 would be more than enough but then again he isn't stacking it with anything else.
Thanks

Honestly, it probably won't matter either way.

Agreed. But I would still start with 500 - since it's his first go around he doesn't know how much he'll need to grow.

Agree.

Only reason I'd bump it up is if he was thinking about adding deca to the mix.  Otherwise, 500 should do him nicely.  There's plenty of future cycles upon which to up the dosages...

500 is the magic number for a first cycle, but he will probably do fine on 750. I think he is wasting his gear using 750 on #1 though.

what they said.  get him to run his first at 500mg per week and make sure all else is getting done right( eating, sleeping, training). save the 750+ for the next one cuz we all know there will be another. the dark side is strong.

750 is fine, just because you start at a certain dose doesn't mean you have to keep increasing and increasing and increasing the dose of test, think instead of keeping the test dose the same and increasing the poundages you're handling in your workouts, decreasing rest between sets and eating more quality food slowly over time.

If you're getting the results from 500 I don't see why anyone should try going up to 750 unless they experimented and saw a marked improvement. Just playing a numbers game is a waste of money - I took test enanthate at 500 and with the amount of acne, horniness, depression and paranoia I experienced there's no way I would have considered 750.

no need what-so-ever to do 750mg of test on first cycle. If he absolutely has to add more tell him to add some decca @300mgew, and some dbol about 30mg ed. No need to run the test to 750!

Second this notion
