How will this affect my cycle? Will my T drop as these are different esters and will take a while to build up in my system? Or is it just to do with how long they will stay in my system.
Sorry for being a noob, this is all a sudden change which I havent prepared. Any help is appreciated.
This question tells me you have no business doing any cycle… And probably the reason why you want to exdend the cycle is poor results which are caused by you lacking knowledge about training, diet and steroids you are taking…
Couldn’t be more wrong. While my knowledge is still developing as this is my first ever cycle, my gains have been top notch. I started out wanting a 10 week cycle, now I want to extend this, and want information.
I have been training for a good 5 years now and have built a good base thus going on steroids.
Whoa whoa, keep your naked pics. I wasnt asking naked ones, you creep.
Anyways, for starters - if the cycle was such a win, dont double the dose for no reason. Do the cycle as planned. If you got such amazing gains, doubling the dose and duration is what is immature. You can also just do a bit longer on same dosage - i dont understand WHY you want to double up un everything if the cycle is good. If my cycle is good, id want to do it, then cruise and the repeat the SAME cycle, as our goal is to use as little as possible while it works.
Usually people do such dumb shit as double the dose and/or extend the cycle only when its a shit cycle or their training and eating sucks. If your cycle is so good, i suggest you take a break and repeat it.
Also, keep in mind that doubling the dose WONT double the gains. If 300mg is good, 600mg will maybe get you 5-10% more gains, and tripple the sides. The more you use, the less you get the good stuff and more you get the bad stuff.
Same goes for duration - “hit and run” is the best way to go about this.
But if you have considered all these factors and you are willing to double or tripple the sides for additional 5lbs of weight(not muscle) in the next 2-3months then…
I preffer EOD shots. Nowdays even ED shots.
Test is test. Also, if you are using a mix of so much different esters, the fast ones will be ready the same evening. You wont be able to tell the difference.
In reality these mixes and esters dont matter that much. Maybe for the first few shots, but thats it. You already have test in your system - it will take a while to drop, but you will be doing prop and ace and P-prop which are all fast acting.
There is no way you would feel anything.
When people stop blasts, it sometimes takes a month for them to actually notice that the drugs are gone.
When i was on stanazolol and later anavar, even tho orals are fast acting and have halflife of like 6-12 hours, it took me 3 weeks to actually lose the strenght a bit from quiting them.
Currently its only week 5 into my cycle and im happy with the results so far. I think I am a little addicted to the progress and just want MORE! and FASTER! lol.
But I will probably just stick it out then. I have a lot of people telling me that 300mg is a waste of time and that 500mg is the lowest they would go for atleast 10 weeks!
First of all - see if you even continue gaining. There is a huge chance that when you will be closer to the end, your gains will stop and adding more time or drugs wont do much anymore. Thats why i said - hit and run. The longer you go, the less you gain. The higher the dose, the lower the benefit compared to the lower dose.
in my experience, upping the dose does not speed up stuff… if something works good, then when i added more and more, i actually didnt gain nothing more or faster but i got mental addiction that made me think that now i need this amount to keep on gaining, and then i was on 5 different drugs, gaining just as much as i was on 1, but i couldnt drop the extra 4 because i was afraid the gains will stop…
That is why i asked your pictures. Depending on the overall development we can speculate about the dosages a bit. For some 300mg might be a cruise. But for some 300mg is enough to make slow, steady and SAFE gains.
Remember that dosages dont come without cost. There are cases when people overdo it, gain a lot and then one day wake up with enlarged heart or atherosclerosis and then all your gains go bye bye anyway.
@gertdf876d you’re at week 5, then your TT is just now peaked & holding consistently, so very likely you’ll see more improvements into the 10 week mark and won’t need to raise your dose. Get labs done, if all looks reasonably well, extend into the 16-20 week range. Don’t go to 500 or 600mg cos the internet tells you to; do it cos you’ve maxed out everything below that
I would suggest finishing your 10 week cycle as planned, take 10-12 weeks off get blood work and see how you recover. Then cycle again if you’d like. I agree with @hankthetank89 that longer duration cycles don’t give the best results.
I am not convinced about this. I think that perception can skew reality sometimes. In the beginning, water weight is a big factor in how someone perceives gains, and those plateau. Also, the feeling of being stronger fades off. But, I am not sure gains in LBM actually plateau off like that.
That is true, but the pros now don’t seem to be using that strategy (at least not close to universally). I am sure it can work. I am just not sure if it is better.
Please omit the “Pro” part. I only competed in 2 IFBB shows and those were Couples Shows. I was far from “Pro” level. My ex-wife was very good compared to the competition of those days. She was 1st in the Lightweight Class at the 1981 World Games.
I am with you on this. I think it comes down to individual response more so than anything. As much as we want a “one size fits all” approach so we can just run with it, in reality there is a lot of experimenting that must be done to figure out what works best for the individual.
