For a long time I've been a fan of short cycles but I've kept my mouth shut cuz honestly I didn't wanna have to deal with people tellin me I don't know what I'm talking about but stick to what works for u. I am a moderate juicer I do one cycle every 2-3 years at veryyyy minimal doses to get most benefits n the least sides. My gains stop around week 7 no matter what the compound so it I run my cycles of whatever compound at 1.5 cc a week which comes out to about 6.77 ccs a week perfect for me, but do not listen to anyoneeee, listen to ur body! If u can't make gains off a simpe test low dose deca dbol cycle ur taking way too much n not enuf time off, hope this helps, every cycle I have run has looked like 375 test and about 250 deca for 7 weeks with about a year break n my resuslts r phenominal n keepable
