I’m 28 6’1 and walk around at 215lbs w/ around 10% bodyfat.
Benching 315 for 5-6, rowing 315 for reps as well. I have a really solid base and plan on doing my first classic physique show next year.
I lift diligently 5-6x a week, and I am hitting my daily protein goal of approx 350g a day. Extremely consistent; My diet and training are bulletproof and there are no holes in my work ethic and or plan.
I’ve been on TRT (200mg) weekly of Test Cyp administered 3x a week for six months now accompanied by a pregnyl dose 2x a week subcutaneously. I put on around 10-12 solid solid pounds and my lifts improved. My physique is noticeably more impressive and I have not experienced any unwanted sides.
I was going to up my test to 400-500mg along with 200-250mg of Deca per week for ten weeks and continue my TRT protocol in conclusion.
Ive been told if It’s wiser to switch to Test Enanthate for my 10 week cycle and raise it to 400-500mg rather than continuing the Cyp as I will hold more unwanted water with the Cyp.
I have no problem switching to Enanthate if there are more benefits, but I’m inquiring as I have a lot of Cypionate still left. It’s what my body has been used to the last 6 months and I’m not sure if it’s worth changing or not.
Any advice, insight, or perspective is greatly appreciated
Testosterone esters matter much less than you think. Other that deca dose being so low im not sure it will do much for someone with your development, not much else to add.
I appreciate the feedback.
I’m not sure it’d be wise to drop my test from 200-250 down to 80…
As far as NPP goes, I’ve gone a good amount of research and have spoken to a handful of people. I’m going to go the Deca route first as I’ve seen and have been told NPP is a harsher compound and there’s a higher probability of encountering prolactin issues on my first cycle.
NPP has a much shorter half life than Deca, but I don’t know if it’s necessarily ‘harsher’. The prolactin issues you might face on NPP could be resolved within a few days on it’s own due to the short half life, whereas the prolactin issues you could face with Deca will last for weeks. Pick your poison lol.
Either way, it sounds like you came here looking for a green light - not critiques. Good luck with your cycle.
I said that test esters dont matter much.
Well you see, deca and NPP is the same drug but a different ester. Its still nandrolone. Its either decanoate or phenylpropionate. Its the same as test prop or cyp or sust…
Exactly. I don’t really care one way or another what drugs a fellow forum member uses, but this bother me. It discredits the legitimacy of TRT in general. Some of us that are stuck on it for diagnosed hypogonadism still have to deal with the stigma that it’s a lifestyle choice rather than medicine.
I got a chuckle out of his statement. I’m guessing he’s got zero to limited stage time and is already talking “pro card”.
I think I explained that already. I find a 28 year old on TRT with the levels you stated to be an extreme abuse of medicine. My beef is with shady clinics not you personally.
I think your statement about getting a pro card so quickly without ever competing to be quite childish. From your statements you don’t know anything about pharma, in fact you know a lot of false information to make matters worse.
Regardless I seriously have no ill will toward you. I just think you have a lot to learn and a long way to go. Stick around and soak it up.
as mentioned in a different thread, i could not orgasm on NPP at 200mg/week+280 T base/week (on 200mg trt) took close to a week to fully recover. like smarter people then me here mentioned, try NPP instead of deca, I assume that you don’t get deca legitimately anyways so might as well buy NPP?
that way if your dick starts hanging flat like a cloth, it won’t take you forever to recover.
