I'm a 31 y/o Male, 5 ft 10, approx 15% bf (have visible upper abs). I've been training hard for the last three years but been active my whole life.

My diet has been locked in for about two years now, I've predominantly been in a deficit where I've gone from 93KG to my current weight of 78KG (2300 calories, 190g protein).

Despite my weight loss, I'm still hiting PB's here and there doing a full body split 4 times a week including the main compound lifts including one or two 5k runs a week.

I've been seriously considering my first cycle. I've had a recent breakup and I'm more motivated then ever. Although I don't see myself blasting and cruising my whole life but wanted to do one cycle, is this a ridiculous thing to consider for just one cycle?

I'm thinking of a test E 250 cycle for 16 weeks.

I've done a blood test about 3 months ago, my test levels were normal - 21.4nmol/l, and my free test being 0.355nmol/l only thing of notice was my SHBG which was considered high. I've been supplementing boron and plan to retest soon.

What do you guys/gals think? Any advice appreciated.
