Get Shredded!
So Im 59y.o. and just finishing up my first ever cycle after TRT for 2 years. It was a 16 week bulk cycle and I started with TEST C at 300 a week and Deca at 200 a week. I gradually increased both finishing up at TEST 400 ( had to switch to test E as I ran out of the C ) and Deca at 300 pinning Mondays and Wednesdays. I did throw some DBOL in on occasion and definitely noticed an increase in my intensity on those days. Thankfully ZERO sides except for insane night sweats...like 4 tee shirts a night worth! I managed to go from 166lbs to 177lbs with minimal chub showing on the waistline so I'm psyched about that and have added Cardio back in. I ride a road bike and see my 40 mile ride speed avg went up from 12.8mph to 14+ mph. (VO2 max took a hit from the minimum cardio on cycle and im sucking wind!)
The question now as I plan to return to TRT levels at +/- 200 a week is should I drop from the 400 a week test to the TRT levels in one shot (no pun intended) or do I take it down incrementally by mb 100mgs a week. Bloodwork to follow ASAP.
Thanks for looking.

Tapering down isn't necessary. Just start your trt dose, preferably as Wiseguy stated, 100mg 2x pw.
Also, nice job on the gains. Ten pounds is legit at any age.

I split my trt dose into two injections a week. Wednesday and Saturday. IMO it’s better than once a weeks for more stable levels.
