Is this normal?

[vinced80]

Finished a 16-week primo/var(8 weeks) cycle almost a month and half ago.

Only did 2 weeks of Nolva as PCT. That's it.

Still the same weight. Not losing any mass at all. Haven't lost any strength. In fact, my military press has even INCREASED these last few weeks.

I'm not taking any creatine or any other supplement at all.

Is this normal or is the big "crash" still looming up ahead?


Only thing I don't like is the f'ng ACNE. How long do I expect the ACNE to stop breaking out? When does your skin usually subside and go back to "normal" for you guys, after your cycles?

Acne is a strange thing. I have a friend who does not get rid of it till about 4 months after. So I would have to say it is different for each of us.

do you use tanning beds?

Proof positive that PRIMO builds sustainable muscle. I think that's your answer regarding strength with no loss of your gains. Acne has a mind of it's own. Even at my age. It can appear during ramp up, On cycle, or even during low dose HRT. Wash with good acne scrub/ cleaner. face, neck, arms, chest and back. I really like PanOxyl, $8.99 at any drug store.

wow, what a/b libido issues etc, i'm pretty sure from any 16 week cycle, even primo/var i'd be pretty shut down.

what kind of results did you get, what dosages did you run.

post cycle acne for me gets slowly but gradually better over a few months.

the real bad part of it lasted maybe a month or two. actually interestingly enough it's been kind of worse ever since my first cycle, also ironically my libido has been higher (besides first 6 weeks off cycle it was a lot lower) than it has in a long time, kinda like goin through puberty again. i'd say generally it takes a good 6+ months to get back to your hormones fully evening out.
