Going on and not coming off, or bridging between cycle?

[auslifter90]

honestly thinking about cruising to my next cycle because its cheaper for me to run 1ml of test for a few months to for pct/bridge supplements. i probably wont stay on but financially there is a huge difference

I love being off cycle, it feels good. don't have to worry about sides, getting gyno, taking a zillion pills and ancillaries. don't have to worry about my liver and pissing orange, about waking up de-hydrated...

i still go to the gym and feel a nice pump when i workout. am i as strong off? of course not. do i get those crazy pumps and veins showing as good off? nope. but i still feel great and enjoy it just as much.

not saying you are like this at all but a lot of guys who stay on have the ego thing going on where they always have to be breaking PR's and they always have to get a 2 inch pump in their bicep every workout. unless you are competing i really don't see the point.. not like people can't gain off cycle with the amazing supplements available. its important NOT to always be breaking PR's, gotta give the body a break from pushing all that weight.. the ligaments and tendons and soft tissues cannot handle that.

I can vouch from recent experience this year for that. If you dont like going to the gym while "off" then it wont matter if you only go while "on". It just really sucks going to the gym, adjusting all your weights downward off cycle, feeling weak, etc.

Although i got so strong last cycle i nearly tore my tricep tendon doing over head db extensions with a a weight ive never touched before even when i was in my 20's. Had to go to the doc and make sure it wasnt torn, so even on cycle strong as shit there are drawbacks. Gotta strike the right balance between maximizing the cycle and being safe.
Fuck this stuff is hard lol, gotta love it though

^^^ as i've gotten older i have appreciated more doing lower weight and higher reps.. rather than trying to go heavy for 2 or 3 reps. i do like going heavy don't get me wrong but my body doesn't like it, i've figured out i'm not 18 anymore.

so losing strength doesn't bother me.. i am going for 6-8 reps on compound lifts now and feeling better.

when i did my tren/var cycle end of last year my strength was ridiculous. i was closing in on 400 pounds on the bench press, and my squats were 500+ for 4 reps. but i have a sneaky suspicion that my body took a beating during that because now i have been dealing with neck and back issues all this year. so i've backed way off the heavy shit.. gonna wait till i am 100% before touching tren again.. a buddy of mine at the gym benches 500 pounds and is 50 years old, but the dude is crippled.. i don't want to end up in his shoes. he looks like king tut at the gym with all his wraps and is always taking pain killers

have you tried non suppressive SARM stack for your rats? that could be a solution for you.

Steve...what are your taughts on this. What I am wanting to see is what my Bloods are after I'm done with this mast E. I've been off Test for 10 or 12 weeks I can't recall, running a mild/low dose of Masteron at 200mg Every 4 days. I feel great now, what do you think about the Mast on my test levels as far as suppressing it. Do you think I have a chance of not alot of shut down/recovery?

If you've been on for two years, you're definitely shut down completely bro

Ya, figured that. It's about 2yrs with bridging and some mild compounds between runs. Is what it is now.

masteron will suppress you. any AAS will. some more than others.

you can run bloods and look at your LH and FSH. if they are near 0 then you know you are 'shutdown/suppressed'

then it will be time to blast some hcg/HMG and run a pct to try and get things humming again .. if you were on for 2 years you are gonna want to stretch out a pct for a while.. can't run 4 week pct and expect to get anywhere.

once your LH starts waking up that will trickle over to your test levels slowly. its kinda cool running bloods every couple weeks during this and watching things slowly recover. then all of a sudden you see a huge jump in your LH and total T and then you know your body is finally producing test on its own at a good clip
