T-Men,
I’ve been trying to research 2 week, or short - cycles. Most of what I am coming accross discusses dossages and PCT. The main question I still have is: how many short cycles can be done in the same time frame as a traditional 8-10 0r 6-8 week cycle? Are we going 2on 2 off and then repeating again?
If anyone could add to this or help point me in the right direction I would greatly appreciate it.

Well, simple algebra will show that if you run a 2 weeker (with two off for a total of FOUR), comparing that to an 8 weeker would be as such:
8/4 = 2
Similar logic can be applied for a 10 weeker:
10/4 = 2.5
And for a 12 weeker? That’s right, you guessed it:
12/4 = 3
I hope this helps!

I appreciate the resonse VT, I’m with you on the Math. I Suppose i am more interested with people’s thoughts on short versus long especially when considering 3 back to back short cycles 2on2off X 3 and the time off recomended after the 12 week period. But then again this will depend on blood and lipid levels.
You can run 2 on 2 off for a short while, say maybe two or three times, but then you need a longer break. Shorties can help minimize suppression to a degree, but do not eliminate it at all, and with only two weeks off in between, you are likely not going to be 100% recovered when you go back on…cumulative effect starts to kick in at some point. 2 on 2 off, 2 on 2 off, 2 on 4-6 off would be aggressive enough and still give you a good shot at decent recovery in between, and at the end. I wouldn’t be more aggressive than that, as IMO you’d be defeating the purpose of shorties at that point.

Thanks for that, things are making more sense
