Shit bro, after my last time off with no energy or sex drive and every joint in my body aching like a MOFO, I doubt that I will ever be completely clean again!

I was very proficient with my PCT, but I am 42 yo now so only producing so much naturally.


So, essentially I am all for your idea!

I don't go that long. I cruise 3 months and then cycle 2-3, then do it over again. I have been cruising for months now. Since my injury.

Strong advocate of staying on ( Cycle then cruise and so forth) once you pass 40. Too much spikes and dips if you come off, then the PCT, to eventually come back on. Fucks with your levels even more!

It's not a bad plan TrenA, but you really have to work what you are going to do to keep growing for 26 weeks.

I am a fan of growing the first 8-10 and then holding it for 4-6 then dropping back to HRT and trying to keep the weight up as best as I can for 8 plus which puts me at a 1/2 year. Then I normally work at reducing some BF over the next 8-10 and hold that through the summer and then cruise again in early fall.

I've been on "HRT" for over 6 years now. 500mg test and 400deca mainly. Every 3 moths I'll ramp that up and and change the brew. My results are great. I feel fantastic, am still gaining muscle, and still turn a head now and again. BTW I'm 57 and still growing.

What does that mean to cruise? Take a low amount during your time off your cycle?

Thats exactly what it is......Its more like a maintenance dose. every so often ur on cycle (higher/mixed doses) when the time comes (differs for all) to cruise you lower your dose (some take it down to 250-500, usually but not always test) ) and run it till your ready to run another cycle.

Going to be 47 soon and have stayed on since 2005, upping the dose here and there, adding something different every now and then. Aside from the hurting shoulder, knees and back ( all post surgery ) I feel great and don't plan and stopping.

I have been on between 150-250mgs test prop eod for the last several years with the 150 being more the cruiseing dosage and the 250 being the "cycling" dosage. I also toss in tren when I "cycle". I can't wait till I got a little extra money to toss around here soon to start another cycle of tren. Been gaining real good and steady.

Damn, that sucks. I was hoping that would be a distant memory for you by now. It's amazing how as time goes on shit just keeps breaking down...thank God there are people out there to put us masochists back together again. I recently got a nerve pain running down my right arm stemming from between my scapula. I know I have some disc degeneration there as well so I backed off for a coulple weeks and it feels much better. Made me think of you and the shit they did to your neck. Hence, I learned from your predicament. Im fed up with surgery for now.

I only go off, which means I drop to 500-750mg test and 3 shots b-12 a week, when I am injured,


But once I am back on, I will stay on, and change my gear about every 12-14 weeks

Do a cycle for 3 months

Test alone for a month or so

Do a completely different cycle.


Try and remain injury free.

I always have test and Fina in my cycles, will drop the Fina after 90 days cruise for a couple of months on test only, then start another cycle.

when I feel the need.Right now,I'm just going w/Test 400mg and Deca at 200mg.will probably run this for 8-10 weeks,then drop back to 250mg. of test per week, and see how things go.
