Staying on

[andysutils]

Can anyone see anything really bad about staying on lets say for 8 months on 500mg test?

If you live a healthy lifestyle, eat well, rest and train smart and get regular bloods done say every 12 weeks, recovery shouldnt be that hard right?

It could cause potential recovery issues. Its probably not a great idea, but Im sure many have done it. Why would you feel the need/desire to stay on for 8 months if you dont mind me asking?

Anything to avoid running shitty PCT for as long as possible, also depends how long id stay off, but im not one of those completely insane people who runs PCT crashing the bodies hormoanes and jumping back on only 3 months after my last cycle it would be better to just run through out for longer than doing PCT and jumping back on in another 3 months plus I would make more gains on a longer cycle. Im still going natural now for a long time, just getting as much pre-info as possible.

I probably wont stay on for that long, I just want to avoid running PCT anytime near summer.

i know i said id stay out of this section, but theres not much going on down below (on the forum i mean )

I believe that running a good cycle twice a year gives optimal results and allows the body efficient time to recover in between. I wouldnt encourage anyone to run a cycle every three months. Thats just me. If bloodwork is done regularly, it should show how youre recovering.

After a long time, and it's different from person to person, all your anabolic/androgenic receptors

for skeletal muscles get saturated...the steriod will still bind though, just in other areas...kidneys,

heart, etc...I agree with Ironhorse, two reasonable cycles per year with solid PCT and recovery

time between gets best results. If you stay on 8 months you could see some "After School

Special" type, bad side effects!!!

Fair point i suppose, 2 cycles per year would give me a good break in between.

whats your opinion on bridging on lets say 200mg per week inbetween cycles and coming off and PCT?

Do you think you would see better gains on your next cycle from PCT recovery compared to Cruising & blasting?

cold turkey...directly to 4-5 weeks PCT...gotta get your nuts workin again. my first cycle was way

2 long without off time...good rule, if you run a 12 week cycle take at least 12 off if you plan to

cycle more than twice a year. I'd suggest 2, 14 week, intense cycles per year and fo sho PCT!!

[Ironhorse]

The rule of thumb that I go by personally is, if you run a 12 week cycle, and PCT for 6 weeks, that would be a total of 18 weeks off. Got to remember to include PCT time as well, not just the AAS part. After that, granted bloodwork is good begin another if you want. As for crusing in between cycles, if you dont need TRT right now dont do it. The results wont be any better by doing that. As long as your body can produce test naturally, let it. Its a good thing.

See your point and staying on is not worth it, im gonna play by the rule of 3 months and coming off.
The quicker you come off the less you will suffer later on it looks like.

Can see theres obviously a good reason now why 12 weeks is the standard.
