TweetWhen using a long estered test. Why would you not want to use something fast acting (prop, suspension, fina, dbol) to end your cycle with? I notice almost everyone kickstarts the long estered test's but ending strong is not as common. I was just wondering why.
For example
Cycle 1
Dbol 35mg/ed wks1-4
Test Enan 500mg/wk wks1-12
Nolvadex or Clomid wks14-15
Cycle 2
Dbol 35mg/ed wks1-4
Test Enan 500mg/wk wks1-12
Test Prop 50mg/ed wks11-13 (350mg/wk)
Nolvadex or Clomid wks14-15
How much more significant mass could you expect from cycle 2.

TweetI like this thinking, and I'm planning on ending all my future cycels, this current one included, in this manner. The use of a short ester test during the last few weeks allows you to move right into PCT without having to wait 2-3 weeks for the longer estered test to leave your system. During this longer taper, you are at lower levels of test for longer periods of time before you can get to work on restarting your natural test production again. It makes a lot of sense, and should definitely be looked at if you like to keep the large majority of your gains intact.

TweetDiet is important but it isn't everything. If it were we wouldn't even need gear at all. I have seen where many end with prop then jump right into pct like motox said so you should get some good responses to your question.Originally posted by Colorao
its all in the diet brutha
Tweetyour upping the dose of test for 2 weeeks that is not long enough to really do much if you did the prop 10-14 i would bet you would gain a few extra pounds over the first. instead of prop i end all of my cycles with winstrol, i dont gain weight but i harden up my gains and i personally feel i keep my weight better with it after cycle.
Tweetend cycles with prop and winny, it's better for retention of gains.

TweetIf you are planning a 10 week cycle, the goal is to be at highest blood concentrations for as many of the 10 weeks as possible.
If you use a long ester such as deca at xmg/week, it will take you 4-5 weeks to build up to max blood concentrations possible for xmg/week. So half of your cycle is not wasted, but you are not maximizing efficiency.
When coming off a cycle, the waiting period before clomid therapy begins will vary depending on the type and dose of the AAS. If you ran 500mg/week of deca for 10 weeks, a month after your last shot, you will still have around 200mg of esterified deca in your system. This is more than enough to prevent recovery. This is the reason why recovery is more difficult with a deca (or another long acting ester).
Let's calculate the amount accumulated in the body after 6 weeks of 500mg/deca. Let's say you inject it once a week and we'll give it a 1.5 week half life. Note that injection frequency makes a huge difference in blood concentration stability but no difference in amount of esterified in the system
E (greek letter "sigma") 500*e^(ln(1/2)n/1.5) from n=0 to n=6. So after 6 weeks, about 1300mg of esterified nandrolone remain in the body.
Now lets see how long, after the initial injection, it takes to reduce to a small enough amount that permits recovery.
1300*e^(ln(1/2)n/1.5) After 3 weeks, 325 mg of esterified remain
after 6 weeks, 81 mg of esterified remain.
After 8 weeks, 32mg of esterified remain.
Most guys go with "time on=time off." This will not work with long esters as I have demonstrated above. For at least a month after your last shot you are in what I call a "time in-effiency" period where you are no longer reaping the benefits of you AAS but you are not recovering either. The goal of the modern cycle is to minimize this wasted time.
The key components are:
1) Front end loading this cuts down on wasted time in the beginning of your cycle waiting for the doses to reach full theraputic levels. This concept has been used before but (as far as I know) I was the first one to quantify it mathmatically. Zyg has taken the math one step further with a graph showing, visually, the importance. Graph of eq loading
The use of orals in the beginning of a cycle is a popular component of a cycle. While I don't feel it is a nessecity, it too is a (different) type of front end load. For the advnaced BBer, dbol should be taken in the beginning of a cycle as well as loading the injectables since the anabolic response from dbol is alleged to be by a different mechanism than most injectables. If one had to chose between a dbol load and and injectable load, in most cases, the injectable load should be prefered over the dbol load.
2) Injection frequency This is crucial to obtaining even blood concentrations of androgens. Ideally, the more often injected, the better. An acceptable rule of thumb is "inject at half of the half life." For instance, if the half life of a steroid is 7 days, this should be injected at least twice weekly. For cycles that involve multiple injectables, the injections should be fractioned out and divided up based on the injectable with the shortest half life. For instance, if you were doing a test propionate and deca cycle, the old school way to do it would be to inject the prop EOD and the deca once a week. Both compounds should not be viewed as separate, but together with total androgen concentration taken into consideration. If you injected the deca only once a week, probably along with one of the propionate injections, that day will have a much larger spike on total blood androgen concentrations. Instead, the deca should be split up and taken with the propionate injections, EOD. This way there is no one day of the week that has a "spike" and even blood concentrations are maintained throughout the week.
3) Ending the cycle Switching to shorter esters toward the end of a cycle makes perfect sence however not too many guys incorporate this practice- perhaps because of the lack of variety of drugs. The modern cycle should include replacing long ester injectables with shorter ones so that recovery time is made more efficient. The necesity of switching to shorter esters toward the end of a cycle depends on the type of drugs used. Longer esters such as deca and eq should be replaced with shorter acting versions of these compounds no later than four weeks before the end of a cycle. Medium length esters such as t-enanthate and cypionate should be replaced no later than three weeks before the end of a cycle. A couple examples of appropriate replacements are: trenbolone acetate and testosterone propionate. There is no need to "load" these compounds in the middle of a cycle since 1) they are already "fast acting" and 2) blood androgen concentrations are already high.
4) Recovery With the replacement of the faster acting injectables toward the end of a cycle, the "wasted" time between the end of a cycle and beginning of clomid therapy is reduced. For instance, if 100mg TA is used ED, clomid therapy may begin in as little as 5 days after the last shot. This tremendously impoves time efficiency. Clomid therapy usually last for four weeks. An excellent thread posted by The Iron Game describes this in further detail Clomid FAQ's .
When the above recomendations are made, your cycle itself is made much more efficient and if recovery time is made more efficient as well, time "off" AAS may very well be reduced so that the overall efficiency of AAS use over time is tremendously improved.

Tweeti like the theory. i am ending with winny but i am considering adding some prop in there the last 4 weeks

TweetI always end my cycles with prop but not to get an extra kick out of my cycle. I take it 2 weeks beyond the date that the long esters should be out of my system, so for example a month after my last enantate shot. I also start Femara at the same time as the prop so estrogen will be low when I end the cycle.
I don't think you'll get much extra mass from cycle 2, it'll probably bump up your side effects without increasing your gains much. If you want a last kick dbol or anadrol works better but I don't think that's a very healthy thing to do.
I don't want to get toned, I just want to become a fucking freak.
I just work out because I want to look good with my XXXXL shirt on.
Tweetbro i did this for my last cycle. But i did it as a taper to keep blood levels stable while longer acting drug ran out. I was taking enanthate at 300mg and prop at 150mg. After my last shot of enanthate I increased the prop dose eod accordingly until the enanthate ran out. So inessense I ended strong on long ester.
pretty much what orion just said
