4 to 6 week cycles

[Stryker1992]

I am curious, has anyone done the 4 to 6 weeks on and then 8 to 10 off? (or something like that?) I have been thinking about trying it. I am simply just not wanting to be off very long so I thought this may be a good option???

Appreciate it guys!

I guess depending on the compounds you chose this will be alright...and who doesnt wanna be off for too long =)

i have heard more of guys doing three week cycles as and then taking three weeks off and on so. Check the archives, there's probably info there.

I believe 6 weeks on, 12 weeks off is optimum for long term permanent gains.

Any compound in particular nelson?

The only reason I don't do shorter cycles is because I travel quite often with work, so I need to stick to 1xEW injections...there's no way I'm checking juice on a plane. Otherwise I'd prefer an 8-10 weeker.

No matter what I'm home on weekends so I can count on injecting...the orals I just put in an advil bottle along with my vitamins...never any problems.

Are you advising a full HC.G nol.v/C.lomid P.CT even for short cycles?

I am confused, you do long cycles?

short or long cycles depend I think on each person. Some people using even short esters like NPP or prop feel it "kickin in" by week 3-4 so for that dude a 4-6 week cycle would not be as productive as for another dude feeling it by week 2-3. Now, we have to keep in mind that whatever it takes to feel the effects in strength and size, BOTH have elevated doses of AAS in their bloodstream from day one; so the protein synthesis, recovery and all the anabolic effects are working anyways 24/7. At this point is where I still don't know if feeling the drug kicking in is a good indicator of having a good response to that specific compound.

I believe Primmo and Test are best so I see no reason to use anything else.

A little HC G won't hurt -- 500 mgs a day for 3 days at the end.

No nolva. No clomid.

A little dexx during the cycle and 1 month following along with some supps like UNLEASHED and "POST-CYCLE" and you walk away with some nice solid gains and an easy recovery as long as dosages don't exceed 800 mgs of primmo and 400 mgs of test a week.

I do basically a 6-8 week cycle, usually a 5-6 week full on and then taper for 2-3 weeks. I don't want to start a debate on tapering, just my preference- it's always worked well for me. I try to take at least as much time off as I was on total. usually quite a bit more, depends on situation and contest plans..

My advice would be to plan ahead, be ready to really make the cycle count. Don't go too overboard on dosing just because the cycle is short. If you do your dieting and cardio off cycle, your body will be primed and ready to soak up nutrients when you start cycling. Eat a lot and push the limits. Pay close attention to your body and your body composition while cycling, monitoring diet etc. Then you'll learn what works exactly for you.

I'm all for short cycles, and agree with Nelson totally on the 6 week on 12 week off thing. That sounds about right for the long haul.

care to share on what compounds you choose for your short cycles and PCt protocol?

Stryker: I have done both....to be completely honest 8-12 week cycle with a good PCT yield the best overall/keepable gains but the downside is that you need to stay off for 3-4 months which isn't as fun.

Short 6 week cycles are good for minor physique changes... i.e. adding a little more mass to the upper chest, or leaning down the waist and lower back etc. BUT trying to transform yourself in 6 weeks is unralistic and leads to overeating or overdieting depending on your goal.

If you do short cycles, stick soley to test prop, tren ace, winstrol, var, or npp is your libido allows

Also consider the standard 8-12 week cycles and using peptides like IGF/gh/slin during pct and your "off" period. personally I have found that just using a small dose (50mcg) igf post workout along with something like Nelsons product or dermacrine works wonders and will allow you to keep everything you gains.

I have also used 20mg var in the am and didn't like the resutls....seemed to keep me shutdown while not really doing that much for me anabolically.

Either way... best of luck bro!!

I do not do high doses, that is not really in the game for me. I ctaully use 500 mgs per week max. I am not looking to be, nor do I think i have the genetics to get huge like many of the guys here. Plus...I am somewhat of an athlete that relies on his cardio ability, as well as strength. It is more of a functional fitness thing as well as injury/recovery desire for myself. The extra strength and few extra lbs. are nice as well.

The issue for me is I feel so muh better when on and being off sucks my ballz! I am 33 and want to not quite go into hrt yet. Plus, my sport will not allow it.

If thats the case you could safely run longer duration cycles of test e and primo at dosages of 250mg test/400mg primo....that would keep recovery time up, strength, hardbness, libido all in check with virtually no sides
