Hey all. I’m training to go into the military, specifically special forces 75th/ranger battalion and I have 6 months to do a cycle and PCT beforehand to get my body and mind prepped. So largely a 3 month cycle + 3 month PCT is what I had in mind. I have been on a very small TRT dose for a while so I would have to go through PCT no matter what anyway so I figured fuck it, i’ll make the best out of the situation while I can.
My goal is to lose about 20lbs of fat, while increasing my muscular strength and vastly increasing my cardio. Currently I can run an 8 minute mile, but my goal is to run a 5 min mile, and complete the 5 mile run in under 33-32 minutes. So avg pace of 6.5mins per mile for 5 miles.
I have done tren years ago and know how fast it works (while also wrecking my lipids) but I also know it typically wrecks your cardio. And cardio is extremely important to me. I know i’ve seen some people say take cardarine or ITPP to counter act the negative cardio effects but i’ve never taken either of those sarm/peptides and there isn’t a ton of research on it.
My other option was take EQ but frontload it. I will be doing training like weighed vest stairclimbing, lots of running, lots of shit that is putting high intensity stress on your joints and while i’ve never done EQ I see nothing but great stuff about joint health and cardio/endurance being amazing on EQ.
I’m curious on what everyone’s take is who have taken tren or EQ or both, and cardiovascular endurance was a big priority to them while taking it how it went and what is recommended. Thanks!
