Well, 14 weeks into this cycle and I'm in better shape than I've ever been in my life. This is my 2nd cycle (straight test E for 9 weeks earlier this year with good results that were partly lost due to diet, kept 10lbs of LBM through the summer though, so I was content)

This primo dried me out and cut me up and afforded me some nice LBM gains. I'm finally sub 10% BF, when 6 years ago I was 20%+, so this is a big deal for me and without the primo I would have never gotten here. So big props to juced_porkchop, DreDay, & Austinite, because without their collective guidance and time invested to make me aware of everything I needed to know I wouldn't be here. So thanks again guys, really, thank you all.

Some disclosure: I'm really not looking to be massive, and I purposely am continuing to not go way above maintenance on my cals. I am eating clean though 95% of the time. I started with some real consistent cardio in the first 6 weeks with HIIT training 4 days a week at 25 minute sessions PostWO. I think it did me well because I never really looked like I held too much water from the test from the get-go, but I eased up off the HIIT to 2 days a week and focused more on longer resistance sessions. For those who've never done primo, understand that this stuff DOES NOT make you a monster if your just running it with test. Well, it didn't for me. I jumped 18 lbs in the first 6 weeks on 800primo / 450test / 60ed Tbol. Then I dropped the Tbol after the 6th week (dropped 7lbs on the scale), as I guess the primo started to slowly kick in and lean me out WITHOUT allowing my body to lose any LBM. The stuff is ridiculous and not too many sides at all. The attention I get is nuts and the strength is nuts. 405 for reps on squats? DaFuq! That's alot for me personally (5'10 - ~190lbs) Again people, for me personally, that's alot of weight.

So, that leaves me a question. I'm planning on dropping the test tomorrow (start of week 15) and continuing the primo for who knows how much longer. Can anyone give a recco on how much longer I should run the primo? 3-5weeks? Any other things I need to keep in mind if I do so?

Note: 500iu/wk HCG, 12.5/every 3rd day Stane. Do I drop the Stane now if I'm dropping the Test?

Thank you very much man!
Happy we could help!
I would run stane MIN 25mg ed, but your done now so w/e lol. males tend to under dose stane alot, in males i find you need more like 25-50mg ed for it to work. i just use low dose letro or 0.5mg eod dex mostly now.
why would you run primo longer than test?
I would end both when ready and do a PCT. the primo is long ester you got right? if so end it same time as test IMO.
make sure to drop the HCG a few days before you start PCT.


AWESOME results man!
happy it worked out well!!

what post cycle therapy (pct) are you gonna do?

I would rec a Clomid Tamox combo personally.

Hey Juced,

yeah man, happy with the results thus far! Thanks again bro!

As for the primo going longer than the test, I thought that was normal for most primo/test cycles? I mean, from what I've read, primo doesn't really grab a strong hold of you until roughly week 8 or 9. And I also have read many times that primo is best run for 18-20 weeks irrespective of what you're running it with. I'm not going to end the primo now because I'm confident that its best efficacy is seen at durations over 16 weeks, but i just wanted to get the test to stop.

Now I'm not sure, do I just run the test at a lower dose for a few more weeks with the primo? Faaack :/
