Frontloading/Backloading?

[Gladiator]

I have read alot about frontloading, my question is can you backload like say weeks 7-10 of a 10 week cycle, and is it better to frontload or backload and why?

[Gladiator]

Anyone?

If by backloading you meant tapering down, I don't think it's a good idea.

i think he means upping the dose at the end of a cycle

think he meant taking more at the beginning and/or more towards the end...frontloading has some merit...i plan on frontloading with a double dose the first week of my next cycle...i don't think it's a good idea backloading, or taking more towards the end...better to keep intake consistent throughout (for the most part) with the exception of the first week IMO

This is how I frontload - and it should be noted that you only need to do this with long lasting esters

Take the dose you plan on using for 5 days and add it to your regular injection. So if your doing 500mg per wk then 5 days worth is 350mg.

Wk1
Sun 600mg (frontload)
Thurs 250mg
Wk2
Sun 250mg
Thurs 250mg

i personally never taper or pyramid. I keep it the same dose throughout my whole cycle..:p

I agree, I just stick with the basics. Works great for me.

Thanks bros the basics it is!

I think upping dosage at the end is a good idea. Gains are slowing down, usually toward the end of the cycle, tolerance gets built up, so upping dosage will give extra kick, extra squeese out of the cycle. IMO, for 12 weeks cycle, last 4 weeks could be very resultfull if dosage is upped.

good point....but for a newcomer i think staying consistent for 10 weeks with the dose will be sufficient........but i might do that next cycle small :p

won't upping dosage towards the end make recovery that much more difficult though? if you're using long-acting esters and injecting weekly, the total amount in your body is building up higher and higher each week so you should continue to make gains even towards the end with a consistent dosage...just my 2¢

i dont have that much experience but what small said sounds very interesting. what the hell; he talked me into it. i'm doing it on my next cycle!

Backloading - Interesting question. I'd be curious to get some feedback on this one.

[BullFX]

IMO backloading would make the recovery MUCH harder ...

I frontload with prop just to get the blood concentration a bit more stable, and generally try to end with it, it makes my recovery much easier, than coming off 16 weeks of enanthate, or cyp..but thats just me...im sure a few other feel the same way
