Recovery Cycle (Test/Trest/DHB)

[topicheadline]

First post!!

I am 5'7, was 175 9% bf as of May 3rd this year.

I was in the hospital for a long time and have lost a significant amount of weight. I'm approximately 140lbs now, estimating around 11%bf as well. Have not been able to train at all. Finally starting again

For my winter bulk to try and regain a lot of mass I lost, I was thinking:

• Test E 30mg ED
• Trest A 10mg ED
• DHB C 30mg ED

For a total weekly dose of Test/Trest/DHB of 210/70/210

I will note that I am taking other supplements (BP meds, GW0742, ITPP, albuterol on demand)

I never had a bad reaction to DHB at higher doses, so I'm not afraid in having any ill effects hindering my recovery. Mainly using it for cosmetic purposes & keeping me looking lean w/ trest's fluid retention.

Trest I have only used on 1-5mg dosages. It was nice. Relatively tame but definitely better than TRT test in terms of libido/appetite/mood
I hear it's a great bulking agent when used at higher dosages, similar to nandrolone albeit with some different characteristics, but most of what I have heard is anecdotal.


Opinions? Comments? Would love to hear what you guys have to say.

Honestly, if you've been out of gym and shrunk down that light, why not just run some test and call it a day? Maybe even just a sprinkle of deca. The doses are low I admit. Or if you love the dhb just the test/dhb?

I'd agree with Sam, I'd probably stick to just Test and Maybe Deca but just on test itself you should be making great progress if diet and food is in check.

 

[Montego]

Just moderate dosed test IMO.

You'll regain a lot of your lost size easily enough with just test, food and training.

Save the goodies for next run when you'll need them more.

 

[aimanabolic]

Agree with everyone, low dose test will do most of the work.

 

[SuppsForLife]

why would you choose trest and DHB? I mean, there are things such as Deca that would do a better job.
Moreover, have you ever used steroids before?
Regardless, I agree with the rest - test alone will do the job, there's no need to risk adding trest and DHB

Some of my most productive, and in hindsight…favorite blasts, have been weird combos like what is proposed here. The wetness of the Ment and the dryness from the DHB will probably create a great look and feel.

Op, I like your proposed plan. I’d probably end up around 300mg weekly of the DHB and Test after about a month though. Then a month or 6 weeks there and then come off or cruise a while depending on your plans.

 

[Sickxlost]

If you have ran gear before I would stick with the original plan.

Maybe even if you haven’t. It’s not an absurd amount of juice, it’s relatively low. I’m a tren fan sooooo.

You do you boo

 

[Meetketchup]

You shouldn't be running anything yet. You will regain so many lost gains by simply diet, training and consistency that jumping on gear now makes no sense. Save the gear for after months of consistency and when you can capitalize on it.

Stupid analogy....It's like putting nitro in a Honda Civic. Wait until you have a car that can take advantage of the nitro.

 

[SuppsForLife]

@Meetketchup is 100% right.
unless you can train and diet at your best, I wouldn't see why would you use gear. unless we're talking about low doses of test and/or hgh (maybe with some micro deca dosage if joint pains are persistent) as a form of HRT and/or for recovery

Do you know what your current test levels are?

Deca always makes me feel really depressed. I like to use trest because it's similar but I feel really good actually

I've ran many cycles. I was on test/trest/mast until a sudden hospital stay

Diet and and sleep have been good. I haven't been able to train until now. I feel ready to jump back in. I was on cycle before my sudden hospital stay

I was mid blast before I had to stay in the hospital until August. Wasn't able to pin at all in the hospital. Getting bloodwork done this week to see what I'm working with.

My plans are to run this cycle until my bloodwork and vitals deteriorate enough and then cruise until June and get my summer cycle going

I can understand wanting to jump right back on then. Fuck having a cycle interrupted.

 

[Wardamn]

140lbs!!!!

Train and eat for a little while.

interesting. im the same way with deca and im like 10 days into my first trest run having a similar experience

 

[topicheadline]

Trest for me has me feeling a few notches below mania. Like very good in most aspects. Hyper-hyper masculine in a good way. Deca makes me feel unmotivated and apathetic. I'm sorry trest isn't working for you

Deaf ears my man.

His mind was already made up before the post.

I would stick to test c only, up that to more like 50mgs/day if you prefer daily pins.

I'm trying to be open minded if you'd like to be constructive with me about this instead of comments like that. What do you think? Feel free to read my replies to others for more context.

What would be the advantage of hopping on a moderate test cycle versus hopping back on a full cycle like I was on before it was interrupted? I do see what you're saying, I just want to understand your route versus hopping right back on a cycle like mine. Wouldn't my cycle help me recover faster?

I already gave you my input with a constructive answer based on your situation.

Simply put...If you run anything more than a real trt dose at 140lbs you will be limiting your future gains while having to use MORE gear and higher doses later on. You will gain a fuck ton of muscle back coming out of the hospital without a cycle, so save the cycle for when it will take you past that point. If you run a cycle now, what are you going to do gear wise when you get back to baseline gains (before hospital)? You will have too run higher doses and be on longer. I don't care what you do as it's your body but god damn what I'm saying makes sense. I don't see the rush.
