[NFG123]

All,

New Guy here. Two questions re: gear use. Iv'e been a big fan of testosterone magazine and their no bs approach to bodybuilding. In the S files articles on dosing your gear, it is suggested to use short acting anaobolics in a two weeks on, one week off, two weeks on, two weeks off approach. The rationale is that testosterone-mediated androgen receptor downregulation occurs after the first two weeks of use. If you pull the plug on the gear, and make sure your "off" time is really off (short acting anabolics, small esters of testosterone), you can avoid screwing up your pituitary axis. What do you guys think of this? Is this bogus or good science? For my first cycle, I wanted to play it safe and would be running 8 weeks of Sustanon 250 @ 250 mg week / once a week ... unless there is truth to this cycling pattern. Also, what should I use to taper ... a non-androgenic steroid?

Thanks,
New Guy

I think you should stick to a simple first cycle. I would up the dose to 500 a week. I wieghed 180 my first cycle and used 250 sus a week and I regret every day of that cycle. Anyways if you are going to run it 8 weeks i dont think you need to taper just take your clomid 3 weeks after your last shot. If you are going to add anything else I would choose deca, eq, or Dbol.

I think the short cycle is kind of for tweaking your cycle to get a couple extra pounds out of it. I have never tried but I will start this type of cycle soon. I will also be using R3 Long and I will let you know how it goes.
