Considering a year long cycle.

Since Im on TRT I was considering a year long blast , as so are some of our other members as well. I would perform regular labs and if anything goes outta whack I would discontinue the cycle and return to my TRT levels.

Goal to increase muscle mass as much as I can. Some fat is ok but not too much.

Cycle:
Test 500mg / Deca 500mg as a base (I have ran test 600mg and deca 500mg for 5 months before)


Aug thru Oct- Bulk- Just test/deca base - Eat alot and train hard

Nov - maintenance- Just test/deca base. Reduce calories slightly and consider some time off (a week?) from the gym IF needed or just cut back for active rest and recovery.

Dec thru Feb- Bulk - Base cycle plus Add in Tbol at 50-80mg for 8-10 weeks (get blood work)

March thru april - maintenance - Just test/deca base (get blood work before cut)

May thru June - Cutting phase - Base cycle plus tren ace 75mg eod, T3 50mcg, Clen . No/low carb, increase cardio, shift weight training -(run var??)

July - maintenance- Base cycle (Blood work)

Cardio- bike,treadmill,mountain biking - adjust accordingly to Bulk,maintenance,or cutting.

AI is Aromasin 20mg EOD.
Prami on hand
HCG 250 iu 2x/wk
Cialis for prostate health
Fish oil, Pregnenlone,Ubiquinol,Green tea extract ,tumeric, NAC, Vitamine D, Brewers yeast, Vit. C, MCT oil, Fiber supplement, Red Yeast powder from Hard Rhino and creatine.

42 yrs old Training for 20 plus years, AAS for past 8 yrs. TRT going on my 3rd year. Lab work looks good but gotta watch my lipids so I may not even run the TBOL.

This is what Im considering. Im already bulking and have put some weight on and strength is going up.

I was thinking about running 500mg test E year round too, just do a long bulking cycle. I've ran it for 22 weeks so far and I'm going down to a cruise dosage. I hear so much about how the longer u run the test at high dosages the less benefit u get out of it. I read that a lot on various forums and sites, but I recall talking to halfwit about it and he believes that 500 year round should not slow down gains as long as diet keeps going up, so basically saying the whole androgen receptor saturation thing is a myth. However, I can't confirm this. I guess wait for him to post!


I think though that if u choose this long year cycle, u better off adding using the Blast and cruise method with 500 test as a base atleast, Maybe the deca might be too much to run year round at 500. so just keep doing ur compound switching like u posted above. Looks good to me man

just curios, what is your trt dose? Only thing I would make sure to specify is getting a lipid panel everytime you get your bloods (just in case you weren't already planning no doing that)
 
Good point OMG I will think about that... or maybe reduce the deca to 250mg.

Weav .... My TRT dose is 200mg.
 
I've read on other boards that some will stay on but just switch the compounds up every 6 weeks or so. Gains keep coming so they say. I've never tried it but probably will in the future. Why not? Lol

This is my thought as well on a cycle this long. Although I wouldnt switch them every 6 weeks I would switch them at the point were you would normally drop them.....eg. Deca at 16 weeks, EQ at 16 weeks+ etc etc. I wouldnt run any compound other than the test for the full 52 weeks.

And if you plan on using Test for gains I think 500 will only provide you them for a certain period before your going to have to up it and up it and up it again. 52 weeks is a long time. But if just used as a base with other compounds doing the brunt of the work then 500 would be fine.

As far as a 52 week cycle. I see no issue with it if you are on TRT AND get regular bloodwork to ensure you are healthy and nothing is going a way ot shouldnt.

Just my .02

This is a good point Shredder.... So I can run test/deca then test/ primo then just test for the 8 weeks before I cut and then bring in the tren.

For sure brother! just don't cut out any hormones before you've actually reaped the benefits from them. You could do something like Test/Deca for 20 weeks then Test/Primo for 20 weeks then Test/Mast for 12 weeks with the last 8 weeks of those 12 including Tren. Pretty well what you stated just with some Masteron. That equals 52 weeks. I think adding Mast at the end like I posted there would really compliment the Tren and as well your cutting phase.
 
So off the top of my head it would look like;

test 500/deca 500 16-20 weeks
test 500/primo 500 16-20weeks
test 500/mast 500 12 weeks running into an 8 week cut with tren A. , t3 and clen
 
The only thing I am unsure of in that mix is the Primo. Some guys say you have to run A LOT of that stuff to see the benefits, whether or not thats true Im not sure as I have never personally run it. I don't want to comment on something I haven't ran before. Everything else looks good though.

Have you ran Tren before? What do you plan on running it at?
 
Yes i just tried it out at 50mg EOD..... Plan on running it at 75mg this time.

Yeah I read dont run primo under 600mg......
 
Doing the same thing with 500mg Test and 500mg EQ and have just started... Plan on going for 20 weeks or so, along with Cialis and Adex as ancillaries. Plan on doing this thde entire spring and summer (AU here). Come the 20 weeks mark will make a judgement on how gains are comming along and most likely will cut to 250mg Test/250mg Deca and then blast them up to 500mg each possibly 750mg each maximum.

Bloods are essential to this.

Yes , an absolute must!!

Why bother dropping the test and deca to 250?
 
What if your blood work was g2g? You wouldnt want to keep the dose up?

Basically thats what Im considering here. If I should go back down to TRT level or go all the way
