I am not a seasoned vet when it comes to AAS but I have a fair amount of cycles under my belt. I look at AAS as a smorgasbord of compounds to choose from and I am trying to find my *synergy*.
I have run test-d, test-e, TIPP and TPA. Another injectable I have run is NPP which I REALLY like. Orals I have used are Anavar, Tbol and Proviron. I have on hand TPA, tren-a and proviron for my next cycle and for the following cycle this summer test-e, primo-e and proviron.
1. How long do you make your cycles?
With long esters I have run 10-12 weeks and with short esters 8-10 weeks. Maybe it's just me but I start topping out on gains on long esters at 8 weeks and 6 weeks on short esters and it does not matter how much I crank up the gear. In the future I am thinking 6-7 weeks for short esters and 8-9 weeks for long esters (Anavar and Primo are an exception as you need to run these for a long time to get the benefit). I like short esters most and I am experimenting now with run and gun cycle of 6 weeks blasting 6 weeks cruising then 6 weeks blasting again to be followed by 10-12 weeks off.
2. What test dosages do you use?
Past cycles I have run 600mg-700mg a week. For the first time I am currently running a gram a week of TPA. The gains are great at higher doses but I am fighting lethargy and think a gram a week is too much hormone for me. I think I will keep my doses below 800mg test in the future.
3. Why did you start blasting and cruising?
My HPTA has nothing in the tank. Coming off a cycle and to PCT I would lose everything. Prior to starting blast and cruise my test level was 208.
4. Do you regret starting B&C? If so...why?
No-never!
5. What have been the benefits for you?
Everybody knows about the obvious, I have the libido, motivation and drive of an alpha male in his 20s. One area of improvement I noticed and nobody discusses is cognition or cognitive loading. Prior to AAS I had memory issues that started to affect my work and home life. Since being on AAS that is no longer an issue.
BTW Smokey, I see you posted here that your natural test levels are over 800ng and you are in your 40s. Just thought I would let you know I hate you
