EF bros doing longer cycles over the years.

[Vascular Freak]

When I first joined this board four years ago everyone seemed to be advocating 8-10 week cycles max. Recently the trend is swaying toward longer cycle durations. Are we discovering that they are just as safe but more effective.... or just more effective (the obvious)???

The reason I ask is because I am falling into the longer cycles myself because the bros on the board seem to think its ok. What is the reality of longer cycles, are they much harsher on the body?

But if you go back 6 years you'll find the posts by E2, Ranger, Ulter, etc. about staying on year round. The people that do that just stopped posting, cept me and a couple others. There used to be a guy named The Ape. I wonder where he went. Huckster, do you remember that guy?

There is no clinical proof that staying on year round is any different than cycling. Cycling is cheaper and people feel safer doing it.

good question, i have noticed the same trend. bump for more responses. experianced or knowledgable responses

Ulter.... I do remember huckster but isn't he still on this board? I just remember back in the day when I came on here before I did my first test cycle and did a bunch of reading with the understanding that 8 weeks was about the upper duration limit for which one should stay "on". I ran a few test e and eq cycles like that and I was beginning PCT by the time the effect started to become really prominent.

Lately I haven't heard anyone really say the word "8 weeks" unless talking about pre contest dieting

I guess maybe I would read your posts and other bros who were on longer and thought that was just a "hardcore" approach and safety wasn't there top priority. You vets have been doing this for a lot longer than me so I was just kind of throwing this out there to see what you all felt.

Man Ranger....... what ever happened to him?

 

[Ulter]

He's doing better now. His Mom died and he was a little distraught for a while.
One of the most fun guys you can spend a day with.

Hes still around.

 

[solidspine]

8 weeks was the norm,

anti E- and then PCT


How about DNP Guru, do any of you remember him?

Remember The Hilarious Post's Ranger Would Post Back In The Day? Btw, I've Actually Been A Member Off And On Since 98 Or 99 (can't Remember) My Old Handle Was Sost250. Just Incase You Were Wondering How The Hell I Would Remember Posts From Back Then When It Says I've Only Been A Member For A Couple Months. I Just Spent A Couple Years Out Of The Gym And Lost My Sign In Info, Had A Different E-mail Addy Ect. But Yeah, There Used To Be A Lot Of Good Bro's On Here. Seemed Like A Lot Of Bro's Used To Have Tons Of Knowledge Of Chemistry, But Shit Without This Forum I Wouldn't Know Shit About Gear. Everything I Have Learned Over The Years About Gear Came From This Board.

 

[boops]

man the good ol days board didnt nearly have the propaganda type shit going on like now...in any event your gonna see trends of all types going on and they are more like "flavor of the month" type things...like the 100mgs per day of var or such as the primo fad, comes and goes....just find out what works for you and stick with it as we are all individuals and what works for someone else may not in fact work for you......

I remember when they were all about the 10wk cycles max! But I also remember quite a few threads about year-round ontime. Damn, quite a few oldschool names mentioned! What about BodyByFinaplix? And who could EVER forget that fuckstick Fonz. Them and I remember Metal Gear! Definantly the most jacked guy I've ever spoken with! If I remember correctly he got locked back up for x distribution.

I gotta admit there is a shitload more drama nowadays than use to be though.

(PS. And theres quite a few of us who remember who brought on that gay fucking primofest.)

Thats what I'm talking about, they were 10 week max cycles! Back then 1 gram of test was for the big dudes that actually needed that to push their genetic potential. Now it seems that people want to start training and use 1 gram as a base plus every oral known to man.

Some of those names you throw out there bro go back a little in time

This was back when nolva was THE anti-e and a-dex was the strongest shit know to man. QV gear was the most common UG lab and avena sativa was promoted as being better than clomid by Nelson Montana (though I am not knocking the dude, he had some good ideas)

 

[khemix]

Bro I remember when everybody thought adex was the shit!! And wow...havn't thought about Nelson in quite awhile! He was definantly a really intelligent man...just had some really off-the-wall prospects!! Mmm... the goold ole' days!

Yeah - I wonder if he is still incarcerated...?

 

[black sheep]

I remember when Liquidex came out - that 4mg/ml Gel. That was a real breakthru at the time for a reasonably priced AI.

 

[Big O]

I always did 16 weeks and 8 off...2 cycles a year...

Now there's some feed back about longer cycles less gear with next to normal blood work coming back....I think its the individual rather than the norm

A 20 weeker using d-bol and drol....30 mgs of d-bol and 50-100 mgs of drol and the gains were solid especially after the water kicks in....There's a claim that most of the gains were kept....I couldn't say either way unless I did it myself...

20 weeks of those 2 orals would wreak havoc....no?

 

[drols of steel]

Shit, I'm talkin further back then the QV craze. I'm talkin like back when the only deca you could find was the 20ml 50mg shit (Can't remember the name) T-200 (Test-E) By Brovel & Tornel Omnadren by Polfa-Jelfa, Oh, and the Grand daddy of everything was Organon Sostenon 250 Pre-Loads W/ the God Forsaken 18 gage Exaust Pipes. LOL.... Damn, The memories.....Drol's
That's righ just remembered "Norandren 50" (The Deca)

 

[glover]

Didn't we used to do cycles because we thought that our bodies (liver) needed the break and that after several weeks the effects were diminished. That is what I remember was the reasoning for cycles rather than year round use.

 

[gymratforlife]

I go all the way back to 93 before there were boards and highest concentration EQ was 50mg.Syntex anadrol was the unspoken taboo lol.

 

[glennds]

not surprised guys want to stay on. coming off sucks, PCT is just not fun.

i love steroids but have taken time off after each cycle, done PCT. but each time "off" has become shorter and shorter. planning on trying masteron on current cycle for first time.
