Ideas for keeping gains

[Mag1234]

I recently decided to run a test prop only cycle, 8 weeks at 150 mg eod with normal pct and AI. Im 5'10 190 at around 9% bf. been lifting seriously for ~6 years. it will be my first cycle in years. However, I feel the gains with test are difficult to maintain. I've always been content with slow,steady but permanent gains. Any ideas on compounds that would be easier to maintain post cycle? Orals or injectables welcome.

Ideas so far
-mast and eq
-mast and low dose dbol
-tbol
-primo and var

The issue isn't the compound used its the pct. that's what makes or breaks your gains bro. You could add in every compound in the book and it won't matter if you don't run a good pct.

I disagree, if that were the case we would see the same recovery and shutdown from var and tren. It's been shown that dbol and primo will not fully suppress, and bill Roberts advocates oral timing for less suppression. So there's definitely more into maintaining gains than pct. I agree that its largely based on regaining natural test, but different compounds definitely change time needed for normalizing nat production.

I wasn't stating that every steroid requires the same method of pct and recovery. I was saying that no matter which steroid you use, retaining gains is dependent on recovery afterwards and returning to normal.

The only way to acheive and maintain gains is diet. All the drugs in the world will not help you keep muscle if you aren't eating enough. This needs to be scientific in its approach to be truly effective. Work with your research along with photos of yourself, tracking weight, and bf%. I agree, a good PCT after a cycle will help stimulate your natural system to support gained muscle, but its all about the diet.

hey bud, lots of bodybuilders keeps their gains after a steroid cycle by following it with peptides such as cjc, ghrh, igf, study and consider them, its on the expensive side but i hope it helps
