does TEST need to be used in all cycles?

[RyanGreg]

i have some mates at the gym running cycles without test base... he blasts and cruises he is currently on tren and winstrol only no test on his cruise he either uses masteron or EQ he said he has not used test in about 1 year.

apparently a lot of old school bodybuilders never used test in their cycles either.... so does test really need to be used in all cycles?

I think it does. Test with tren will help you maintain libido and erections.

iv heard of eq being used a base of cycles. if i dont use test as an anabolic i still keep a trt dose in to maintain function.

It doesn't HAVE TO be but it's a pretty common protocol

what would be the negative sides of not using test in a cycle?

 

[bigorse]

possible low t side, lethargy, no libido etc.

even low libido if masteron was to replace the test?

Really depends on the individual. Some guys can run tren ALONE with no issues.
