Question peeps, I’m 5 weeks into my 5th cycle and seeing massive gains with my stack… but my question is should I replace npp with Deca or drop it all together? It has turned more into a body recomp than a bulk is my reason for asking… here’s my stats and stack. Any help would be appreciated guys!
50yo
230lbs
5’11”
Bench PR, 355
HGH 4iu ED
Test-C 600mg
EQ 300mg
Mast 300mg
NPP 100mg EOD
Why would you want to change that?
I swapped NPP for Deca and started getting sides i couldn’t handle. Id have rather stuck with NPP.
Your too far into the cycle to change unless your going long.
I’m running 16-20 weeks depending on bloods and sides….
If you go 20 then switching to deca would work. I’d prob lower the dose to 150mg/wk.
If you do it run the NPP along side the deca for 2-3 weeks and taper down the NPP dose as the deca builds in your system.
I just YOLO it and frontload with 2x normal dose.
If i die, i die
I dont understand why you chose what you chose in the first place. Test/Nand/Mast make sense but why EQ? Thats going to add very little other than complications with the other three.
If you’re going for recomp over bulk than your Test is too high, you don’t need a Nand derivative and there are other compounds that are better. I’m at a loss.
As to your first question, it probably matters little but I would stick with what has been working.
Can you please elaborate on how it’s working against the other ones? No sarcasm, just trying to learn bro
Test aromatizes moderately. NPP barely does. Mast is a DHT that acts like an E2 antagonist and helps with NPP libido related issues. These three work well together for MASS better than recomp. But if you throw a wild card like EQ in which also can throw off the affect of E2 you’re gonna have a hell of time chasing down any symptoms or side effects. Further 300mg EQ barely does anything compared to the other compounds.
As far as recomping goes you could use EQ, prob a little higher, and just Test or some other combos that work better for lean gains.
The cycle had started off with the intention of bulking but do to a couple of things has since turned into more of a recomp… unexpectedly lol
This post is kinda lacking in scope. Are you saying that you are finding a recomping effect from the NPP and wanting to switch to Deca in order to get back into more of a bulk?
Essentially yes that is the goal, plus the less pinning would be desirable
Mixing and matching AAS for specific outcomes is far from my expertise, as I could achieve my objective with whatever AAS were available. That said, I believe you are best served never getting your % body fat above 15%. I always wanted to be no more than 8 weeks out of being in contest shape.
If you want to bulk adjust your calories/macros. Has nothing to do with the drugs your taking.
Recomp= high protien/lowish carbs/fats eating around maint.
Bulk=Mod protien/mod to high carb/mod fat and eat in a surplus.
I generally agree with with but there are far better combos for specific goal oriented purposes which is why we used to call them wet stacks for mass and dry stacks for closer to stage appearances.
The whole thing seems odd to me.
5th cycle?
Seeing Massive gains?
Wants to change compounds?
He’s bulking?
He’s recomping?
Zero diet questions.
His responses are kind of vague?
The curse of the internet. It is much easier to help those that you can see lifting in the gym.
Seems like he’s not eating enough to gain weight
Exactly. I would have thought that the EQ would have made him hungry AF by now. The whole. “This is my 5th cycle” thing has got me like WHF?
