I’m now planning my first cycle so am really interested in your results mate and how much you keep etc.
Does it make a difference if we have 2 weeks worth of Test E left over and we run 12 weeks instead of 10? same PCT protocol, etc.

Just start pct ~2 weeks after last injection.

The eight to twelve week cycle mark is about the point before myostatin begins to inhibit more gains. Studies indicate when you cycle off testosterone the myostatin levels go back down.
That doesn’t mean everyone will stop making gains, we’re all different. Start at a lower dose and work up to a moderate one for a longer cycle. Wait till subsequent cycles to add more gear.
“Myostatin is a naturally occurring regulatory protein of the TGF-beta family of growth factors known to negatively regulate, or inhibit, muscle growth. Myostatin is produced primarily in skeletal muscle cells, circulates in the blood and acts on muscle tissue.”
“Animals lacking myostatin or animals treated with substances that block the activity of myostatin have significantly larger muscles.”
“Considerable published literature suggests that lowering myostatin levels results in increased lean body muscle mass and improved body composition. In fact, myostatin-null mice show hyper-muscularity and resistance to diet-induced liver fat accumulation and insulin resistance.”
“Myostatin inhibitors may improve athletic performance and therefore there is a concern these inhibitors might be abused in the field of sports. However, studies in mice suggest that myostatin inhibition does not directly increase the strength of individual muscle fibers.”
Cdog, thank you for the valuable finger typing. 12 week would always be my max, and yes the minimum amount of gear for my goals is where I will stay. A minimalist in that regard.
I’ve started my own thread with new revision of cycle so anyone willing to help go to;
