      EQ & Deca are very, very similar from everything I read. Which do you guys think is the better of the two and why.

      I don't see how they are both similar. Maybe similar in way that they both give you some mass or strength, but one bloats you and other one does not.

      EQ;




      by Bill Roberts - This drug appears to be comparable to nandrolone in its potency. It lacks nandrolone’s advantage of being metabolically deactivated by 5a -reductase. It is only slightly estrogenic, and only after conversion to estrogen. I cannot at the moment comment on whether the effect it does produce is owed to strong binding at the AR or to effectiveness in promoting non-AR-mediated mechanisms for growth. I wouldn’t expect much results with less than 400 mg/week. With that dose I would expect to see some noticeable but not dramatic results by the third week. Below 200 mg/week I would expect to see essentially nothing.

      Deca;
      by Bill Roberts - This drug is unique (so far as I know) in that 5a -reductase, the enzyme which converts testosterone to the more-potent DHT, actually converts nandrolone to a less-potent compound. Therefore this AAS is somewhat deactivated in the skin, scalp, and prostate, and these tissues experience an effectively-lower androgen level than the rest of the body. Therefore, for the same amount of activity as another drug at the androgen receptors (ARs) in muscle tissue, Deca gives less activity in the scalp, skin, and prostate. Thus, it is the best choice for those particularly concerned with these things.

      First let me stress that I did use the word "similar" and not "the same" Secondly, That statement comes from what I have read and I will try to find the articles again. And lastly, I never go just by what I read. I always like to get 1st hand knowledge which is why I made this thread, and once again all the the great bros at FG came through with great responses so thanks. I will try and find the articles that I had read previously.

      Deca will build more mass, but i like the EQ, as i retain more of the gains post cycle, less bloat, better quality mass, and mostly no limp and faster recovery.

      I'm going let you guys know. I've got some deca, eq, enanthate and winny. I'm not going do it all at once but the first of the year I think I'm gonna do a deca test combo and finish with eq and winny then pct with clomid. But before I start I'm gonna gather a little more eq to make sure I do it right. I've never done eq or deca so I'm excited to see how it works. I was gonna start a while back but decided to wait until the first of the year and go all out.
      I used to have superhuman powers....until my therapist took them away.

      I never understood how they were the same when 1 is a derivative of test and the other is a 19-nor.

      I've never used deca so I can't say much about except iy doesn't appeal to me, I use EQ instead

      I never have had much luck with eq as in gains kinda a waste imo,many love it.Deca will shut me down but hcg and pct always get me back together,as for gains I think there is no comparison deca is far superior.I guess it depends on what u are planning bulking or cutting and what are the other chemicals u are planning on stacking it with if any?

      deca build more mass and quicker then eq, joints are painless, retain a bit water and welcome to my limp dick.
      now eq is slower, will make u harder, leaner and vascular and retain more gains but doesn't shut me down as hard as deca

      Eq has never gave me gains, close to what i get from deca.....But this winter we will see what a gram of eq a week will do!
      I will never do deca again....I have been a mess for 4 months trying to recover fully from it. I kept alot of gains, but 4 months af acne, depression, and limp dick has not been fun.
      Eq gets my vote

      YOU GET PROB MORE STRENGTH GAINS OFF THE DECA QUICKER ALONG WITH MORE BLOAT AND WATER RETENTION. EQ WILL TAKE LONGER TO KICK IN AND GIVE MORE KEEPABLE GAINS.
