*Ross "The Predicament" Erstling!*

OK, now that everyone understands the utter importance of the distinction between HPTA suppression and HPTA shutdown, we can begin to discuss my actual steroid therapies and the different PHASES that comprise my therapies.

The PHASES of a standard Anabolic Steroid Therapy:

Phase 1: Pre-Therapy
Phase 2: Active Phase
Phase 3: Hyperactive Phase
Phase 4: Idle Phase
Phase 5: Pre-PCT
Phase 6: PCT

The first phase of the Anabolic Steroid Therapies that I want to discuss, since it's what most people know as "THE CYCLE", is called "The Hyperactive Phase".

First and foremost, each therapy is UNIQUE to the genetics and current physiological needs of an individual. These are highly CUSTOMIZED medical protocols that are designed to produce the maximum gains in muscle mass, strength, and fat loss that can be achieved, while simultaneously maintaining your optimal physical, mental, and sexual health. In addition, each individual has their own unique goals, so all of my therapies will be different for each individual.

So let's get to the BEEF of the Anabolic Steroid Therapies. As the name implies, I view the use of anabolic steroids as a THERAPEUTIC PROCESS. The enhancement of muscle mass, body composition, and athletic performance are medical tasks, that require a very thorough and detailed understanding of biology, physiology, and chemistry. Therefore, the THERAPY is not complete until an OBJECTIVE is achieved. This is the very purpose of THERAPY.

Each individual will have different goals and different genetics and therefore the number of phases, and the duration of each phase will vary among individuals. However, EVERYONE will be following the STANDARD ANABOLIC STEROID THERAPY protocol, which contains three ESSENTIAL COMPONENTS during the "Hyperactive Phase", the phase during which we utilize a combination of synergistic anabolic steroids:

1.) The Base
2.) The Secondary Anabolic
3.) Hormone Modulator

For now, let's discuss the BASE of the cycle, since this is the most important part of the therapy, and also the component people are most familiar with already.

TESTOSTERONE is the base of ALL anabolic steroid therapies, period. It is a hormone that simply can not be replaced. As the primary male hormone, it is the perfect anabolic steroid, possessing an ideal 100/100 anabolic/androgenic value that is responsible for it's extremely powerful male-enhancing effects. Testosterone doesn't just build muscle, it has profound physical and psychological effects that will enhance the quality of your LIFE, not just your body! Testosterone will cause drastic and almost unbearable increases in libido, as well as an overwhelming sense of power confidence, aggressiveness, and utter well-being. This is largely due to Testosterone's conversion in to the FAR MORE ANDROGENIC hormone DHT(Dihydrotestosterone), which is also responsible for the development of male sexual characteristics. Although DHT can cause hairloss in those who are prone, it is an ESSENTIAL male hormone that should never be reduced. Doing so(by taking Finasteride) can actually cause FEMINIZATION, including Gyno and sexual dysfunction.

However, in higher dosages the side-effects of Testosterone become more apparent. Due to the aromatization of Testosterone(it's conversion in to the female hormone Estrogen), estrogenic side-effects such as Gyno and severe water-retention are very likely to occur. Testosterone is also very androgenic, especially in higher dosages, so users can expect an increase in ACNE and hairloss, for those who are genetically prone. Therefore, I NEVER exceed 200-600mg of Testosterone, and this is why the second ESSENTIAL COMPONENT of the Hyperactive Phase contains a SECONDARY ANABOLIC..

Next I'd like to discuss the other two ESSENTIAL components so that I can start describing the different PHASES of the steroid therapies. For now, let's take some questions about the material I am posting, I hope it was fluent and easy to understand.
 
OK, FAST-FORWARDING..


Phase 1: Pre-Therapy - This first phase requires a complete optimization of the endogenous male hormonal profile. Prior to running your cycle, we want Estrogen to be reduced and total Testosterone and FREE Testosterone elevated. This is accomplished by decreasing SHBG(Sex Hormone Binding Globulin), inhibiting the aromatase enzyme, and stimulating the testicles.

Clomiphene Citrate(Clomid) should be used in conjunction with an Aromatase Inhibitor such as Aromasin, Arimidex, or Letrozole. I personally would advise starting with low dosages of Arimidex or Aromasin(.5mg every day or 25mg EOD, respectively) instead of using Letrozole which may reduce estrogen too much(especially dosing liquids). This combination will maximize endogenous androgenic activity while optimizing hormonal conditions for the Active Phase.


Phase 2: Active Phase - During the Active Phase, we simply use a "Hormone Replacement Dosage" of Testosterone, typically around 150-250mg per week. The duration of this phase will vary greatly among different individuals, depending on goals and current physiological needs. Most often, especially if using a long ester, the Active Phase should be run for 6-8 weeks. During this time, your body will undergo enhanced masculinization, and your androgen receptors will begin to increase in number and in density--this is a documented effect of Testosterone(it makes you more efficient at using steroids). You will experience favorable changes in body composition and mood, while setting the stage for your most important growth phase, the Hyperactive Phase.


Phase 3: Hyperactive Phase - I think we covered enough of this Phase...Anabolic steroids are utilized over the course of many weeks, sometimes many months, as the bodybuilder aquires as much muscle mass as possible, or while dieting to preserve muscle and aid in fatloss.


Phase 4: Idle Phase - This is a "COOL DOWN" period and a time to SOLIDIFY your gains! Your body is always struggling to reach HOMEOSTASIS, and continuing to elevate your primary male hormone(Testosterone) ARTIFICIALLY will offset your natural physiological systems. You will continue to enhance masculinzation while having a favorable impact on androgen receptor characteristics.


Phase 5: Pre-PCT(Active Recovery) - This is the period of time DIRECTLY AFTER YOUR typical "CYCLE", known in the anabolic steroid therapies as The Hyperactive Phase. DO NOT GO STRAIGHT INTO post cycle therapy! This is why you experience a POST-CYCLE CRASH! Utilizing an ACTIVE RECOVERY PERIOD will allow the body to BEGIN producing testosterone once again, while still remaining in an ANABOLIC STATE!

PRE-PCT allows the HPTA to begin LH/FSH output, while still receiving additional anabolic support. This is the peroid of time where we utilize a NON-inhibitory steroid while the endogenous testosterone level begins to recover. This occurs PRIOR TO FULL PCT, so that by the time we begin full PCT the HPTA has already began recovering. During this time, we also use Clomid and usually also an Aromatase Inhibitor.

Active RECOVERY: The HPTA BEGINS to restore endogenous testosterone production once it detects the body's androgen level beginning to decline(end of cycle).

Therefore, HPTA CAN BEGIN TO RECOVER WHILE STILL IN AN ANABOLIC STATE!


The following drugs can be used during Active Recovery:

Anavar/Proviron= 40mgs/25mgs
Anavar/Masteron= 30mgs/200mgs
Primobolan/Masteron= 200mgs/200mgs
Turinabol/Proviron= 30mgs/50mgs
Turinabol/Masteron= 30mgs/200mgs
Winstrol/Masteron= 40mgs/200mgs
Dianabol/Proviron= 15mgs/50mgs
Dianabol/Masteron= 15mgs/200mgs
Andriol/150 = 200mg/Proviron 50mg

*During this time, we also use Clomid and usually also an Aromatase Inhibitor.


Phase 6: PCT - Now that your HPTA has began recovering, and you have successfully transitioned out of your steroid cycle, it is now time to FULLY RESTORE THE HPTA. Now is the time for your FULL agressive post cycle therapy regimen, which I will also explan. At this point, you're testosterone level has already risen and you've managed to keep all of your gains. PCT will be a BREEZE.

4 and 5 seem to be almost the same thing. Also if you should not go directly into Pct then what is your protocol towards the end of a cycle.The endogenous test levels begin to recover while still on? That would be awesome but seems impossible?

My main question is in Pre-pct what allows the HPTA to begin LH/FSH output? Clomid and and ai along with taking something like Anavar & Proviron? How is that?

This is all very interesting however a bit confusing towards ''Idle Phase and ''Active Recovery''.

As I stated, each therapy is somewhat different for each individual, not everyone requires an IDLE PHASE, but EVERYONE MUST run a Pre-PCT(Active Recovery)!

YOU CAN BEGIN TO RECOVER LH SECRETION AND subsquent Testsoterone production WHILE still ON anabolic steroids. For instance, You can be suppressed while using a high dosage of testosterone and simply decrease your dosage and you'll be less suppressed. This can easily be confirmed by getting bloodwork done and checking your LH levels. You can start recovering natural testosterone production while still running anabolic steroids, I've done it DOZENS of times before. For example, my testosterone levels were around 300ng after a cycle of testosterone and after using dianabol for 8 weeks, my testosterone level had risen to almost 550(whil keeping my gains). By the time I did PCT, it was a BREEZE! I have done the same using many different compounds.
 
A+++ good thread

my question is if you are on 7 straight years will you ever go off? or will you stay on for the rest of your life?

I view the use of Anabolic Steroids as a THERAPEUTIC process, so I'll be using my protocols for the rest of my life. When I am around 40, I'll just stay on HRT.

Fertility is not an issue, I am very fertile even right now.

That is my main question. What would be your protocol to recover LH secretion and natural test production while still ON aas?? Lower the dosage and run hcg with an ai?

What products do you typically run while in Pre-Pct??

Also your always running some dosage of test even when you do the active recovery and Pct so when you say your test levels were around 300ng after bloowork they will obviously still be high.

what would be your HRT? just a low dose of test every other week?

that would be economical.. i dunno how many out there can afford to be on for 40 more years... that would hit the wallet hard although I am a big believer on spending as much as necessary on our bodies to look and feel good.
 
This is the best read I've had in years....
 
Ross,
Very Interesting. This whole process is while you are still on a small dosage of Test, including active recovery and Pct? Or in ''Active Recovery'' you drop the test and start clomid, ai, with anavar and proviron?

So if I'm on a Test/Var/Proviron cycle I would continue Var/Proviron for several weeks after I drop the Test and start a natural test boosting compound with adex? Then go into a full Pct?
