Short VS Long cycles

[C.K.]

Every cycle i've done all the gains were made in weeks 1-6/8 so i like to keep em short 2 months cycles 1 month off for PCT and repeat

So u run 4 cycles a year? How much of ur gains u keep? How about ur strengh and size, do they get better each cycle u do? I am guessing u use different gear each cycle, or how do u do it?

I keep every pound... hit it hard and get out i only lose a lil strength in the month off but barely any size... every cycle builds ontop of what i gained on the last only uphill never down.

This is exactly what Needto's new product BRIDGE will address. It'll keep you on "something" year round, but giving the body a break from the drugs, allowing the receptors to refresh and preparing the body for the next cycle. Think of it as a low cost, safe alternative to peptides, IGF and HGH.

hey ck, what compounds are you using for your 6-8 week cycles?

 

[soupeater]

that makes sense thatbloke. from all that ive read it seems like 8 weeks is the conservative sweet spot when using injectables.

I'll chime in though in favor of short cycles.
I ran Test Prop at 150mg EOD for 5 weeks. I stopped because sides (acne) started to catch up and gains slowed down. I took HCGenerate while on and in PCT.
Also for 4 week PCT - Nolva, Unleashed, HCGenerate as I mentioned and OSTA Sarm.
Gained 11 LB in 5 weeks.
The first week of PCT I dropped 4 lb - water weight. I also dropped 20% of the strength I gained.
At the end of 4 week PCT I gained 1 more pound for the total of 8 lb of muscle (7 on cycle + 1 on PCT) I also lost 1% BF. at the end of PCT (which is 2 more pounds of lost fat and gained muscle). All my strength I gained on cycle and lost in the first week of PCT was back at the end of PCT again.
Quick and painless recovery. - I am 38, 6.2, 200lb, 14%bf

I was off for 2.5 month now and about to start my next cycle ... probably Beastdrol (20mg ED) for 4 weeks + Test prop (150mg EOD) for 5 or so weeks depending on how the sides show up.

I am planning to only do short cycles with quick acting orals and short easter injectables.

My thinking - if you run 8-10 weeks of test enan that takes 4 weeks to act, so you actually feel the results in your last 4-6 weeks and then you wait to start PCT for 2 weeks after .... that's a WASTE of time. ...

runing 5 weeks of prop gets you in and out quick and you are actually on decent amount of test on day 3 and you can start your PCT 3 days after last shot. so you are getting the benefits for the same amount of time BUT with no waisted time and unnecessary additional 6 weeks (total) shutdown before and after cycle.

so me doing prop for 5-6 weeks compared to someone doing test enan or cyp for 8-10 weeks - I am WAY ahead of them. and I can do more cycles a year.
that's my logic, took me 1 year of research to learn and 1 cycle to confirm ... I may be wrong though but hey ... it works for me.

i am always on some type of muscle building product....but never anyone thing for longer than 6 weeks. More often less than 6 actually. I rotate between AAS, peptides/anabolic non-AAS chemistry, and cortisol/estrogen inhibiting protocols.
seems to do the trick, keeps me healthy and responding consistently and safely

do you stay on test the whole time ?

 

[soupeater]

i wish i could get Test P joh I wonder if 6 weeks of Test E or Sust would work?

2 cycles a year. 1 short.. like 4-5 weeks... and 1 'long' like 10-12 weeks.

dont forget the esthers dont leave the body for 2-5 weeks depending on the compound.. so really a 12 weeker is really even longer.
