This. Keeping performance up whilst training and dropping weight is hard!

Libido is worse, water retention and everything that goes with it. I look like a beast but a bloated one. I’ve been at 120 for a few weeks and feel decent. Cutting at 120 seems easier but I’m sure it’s only because I’m holding less water.
I think I must have been getting a lot of testosterone injected when I was an alter boy then……
Feel is never different for me with test. Other compounds yes. Performance doesn’t “feel” different either but building mass and adding weight is what’s different.
That might not have been the body of Christ lol. Maybe the body of priest.

One thing a blast will do for you is raise your HCT hematocrit (he-MAT-uh-krit) test measures the proportion of red blood cells in your blood. Red blood cells carry oxygen throughout your body. Getting your HCT up in the 50-52% range will feed your legs O2.
If you have been a roadie for very long and follow the big races. Racers would do blood transfusions and also the doc would give the racer extra blood. You can’t do that but the effect is the same more red blood cells to carry O2 to your legs.
Also have you considers sarms or peptides?
One that really boosts my endurance is Cardarine is also known as Endurobol or GW – 501516. Google it.
Last comment for now. A 300mg/w blast for 12 weeks would probably raise your HCT nicely but be warned any blast will raise your E2 and that means water weight. You might try a diuretic like Excel or an AI to keep your E2 in range.

Does EQ aromatase?
I’m considering leaving my T dosage the same and adding a small amount of eq in?
Would that help with recovery and improve performance without water weight?
No, the opposite, actually, it’s been shown to cause effects of low e2

No, it kills e2… if you dont have high e2 issues, you probably wont be able to take as much as needed to get any effects, before it sets your e2 on 0…

Thats actually pretty useful. I’m on slightly less T than I’d like to be for TRT and an e3d pin schedule to keep e2 in check. I was going to use a small amount of ai for the blast.
So I could up T slightly and add in EQ and it would help keep e2 down during a short blast whilst adding red blood cells and possibly avoiding the need for an ai.
Sounds like its tailor made for me… . Whats the catch?
Say I upped T to 250mg per week-
How much EQ for say an 8 week blast?
EQ isn’t good for a short blast, takes a long time to build levels even if you front load. Take a look at a steroid blotter (google it) with this plan, you won’t have levels you’re looking for until long after 8 wks.
Its a really long ester then?
How long do people generally run it? Remember I’m not looking to add a tonne of mass though.
What sort of doseages is it normally ran at for a first go in someone’s say third steroid cycle when they’ve only done test only for their first 2?
I’m thinking I’d half that dosage?
Some sources have Bold Cyp, which is a shorter ester. 8 weeks is still too short though. Also I have heard Bold Cyp is got a nasty bite to it. The big downside IMO, is anxiety which some get.
I only know one person who has actually run EQ, and he ran it a few years. He is off of it now. He did say that he feels more calm off of it.
I’m assuming the anxiety is low E2 with people running T supra.
I could switch to once weekly T to raise e2 to counter the EQ I guess?
I am not sure what causes the anxiety TBH.
I believe Equipose affects GABA resulting in anxiety for some.
Yes, for me - half the EQ of what i take test, and e2 is perfectly in range altho i am prone to high e2.
Catch might be the fact that it takes like 5 weeks to do anything and its needed to be ran as long as possible. And its also not too strong, so it wont do much anyways.
Never had any anxiety since i am fucked from all my training as it is.
EQ is not suggested if you dont do cardio and only fluff and pump, since you are never tired, that extra energy MIGHT turn into anxiety, but for people like me, who are barelly alive between training sessions, that anxiety might be just like extra 5% of energy some times 
Yep thats what I’m looking for. Be able to do an 8 hour ride on a Sunday with hours on and off threshold then get back at it 3 or 4 nights in the week!
Its super funny- you can see half the blokes in any decent level pelaton are on loads of gear but no-one can discuss it because of racing etc!
What’s gaba?
A neurotransmitter.

People with clinical depression(not oh I am having a bad day), and or anxiety have neurotransmitter issues in their brains. They are lacking either serotonin and dopamine or GABA.
A lack of serotonin is usually treated with an SSRI or SNRI. These are people that are clinically depressed.
If you are not depressed but have anxiety with or without panic attacks that is usually a lace of GABA in your brain and is treated with benzos.
