250mg/wk maintenance

[markshark]

after a cycle instead of totally coming off i know many of you have stayed on a 250 mg/week dose of test. thats where im at. i havent gotten weaker just lost some water weight and acne is disappearing. what advice could those of you give me who have done this on pct while maintenencing before another cycle and also how long were you able to hold onto gains?

You should still be gaining. You have about 3x the amount of test in your system that the average person has.

not Necessarily orbly

250 of of Exogenous Test does not even come close to the the natural pulsatile metting out of Naturally occurring Endogenous Test

so even though a typical male produces a mere 5-12 mgs of Test a day ( dependant on environment and race) that Test goes MUCH further then the 30 mgs you may get from that 250 a week.

of course this varies form person to person, but I know of many where 400 mgs of Test a wekk is where they begin to break even

300-400 mgs a week seems to keep me going and I'm old. Double those mgs and I is blowin' up!!! Triple those mgs and I honestly can't feel enough of a difference to comprimise my health or justify the expense. I do like to switch up compounds every 6-8 wks though.

I'm not following... isn't 250mg/wk the higher end of HRT dosage prescribed? Doesn't this dosage put most guys up where they should be naturally?

yes its prescribed but it does not necessarily mean its better then what you normally produce if you can produce

however if its precribed then its better then nothing

all I am saying is that if you can naturally produce test , that mg for mg it will be much more effective then 250 a week.

well, if one could produce normal amounts of test naturally, why would he settle for an exogenous amount that would be theoretically less- effective?

 

[needtogetaas]

unless you are plaining on being on steroids for the rest of your life why would you not come of and do pct.ether do a cycle come of and do a proper pct and off time or just stay on for the rest of your life.

agreed, good question

one will only know with Blood work

Right. I know everyone says time on = time off but if you have been on for say four months and you get your bloodwork done a few weeks or a month after you come off and then get it done again in another month or so and everything is fine then I dont see why you wouldnt go back on....if thats what you wanna do of course.

Do you recover in as quickly as 1-2 months? I'm still not recovered to my "normal" even after 2-3 months!

All true.
My friend ran 250mgs a week as HRT until his test came back at 3,000ng/dl.
In working with HRT dr's they have also told me the normal prescription is 100mg's a week. These are not longevity clinics though.
Anyhow. with 302ng/dl I still made gains. So anyone using 250mg's should easily be able to pack on size if they are eating properly.

I agree with that too. Nothing is better then natural test. You can't replace mother nature!

I had blood work done once a monht for a year and a half at one point.
*btw. When you pay for your own insurance it is expensive beyond belief. Esp. bio available test
My blood work showed my test levels dropped right after pct and continued to do so for seven months before it slightly went up.
Getting blood work done is so important. Everyone functions differently. When you see exactly how your body reacts it is eye opening!

After three weeks all my levels were normal. My test levels were still most likely being influenced by test e. So then I went back after I was completely done with derma, clomid all that and everything including test was normal.
