Does anyone factor in ester weight when planning dosage?

[Krazydiamond]

Just coming off my test/tren/mast cycle and now going to just run my 250mg/week test e trt dose (along with the sarms triple stack but that's a different topic) until about mid April. In reality my 250mg dose is actually about 175mg once you factor in the weight of the enthate ester which is slightly lower than what I want. I've noticed in pretty much all cases whether it be a cycle log or just a casual roid discussion with a gym rat that nobody really takes this into account and previously neither have I. Just wondering how many people actually factor this in or just go by what it says on the vial?

I've never put much thought into that.

yeah but can you truley know unless your getting pharma grade Test from the doctor? Never really thought of that, maybe I should up my dosage. LOL.

I think with all the recommended doses, ester weight is already taken into consideration.

Also, ester weight should be the same from every lab.

Ester actual mg/100mg dose
Testosterone Cypionate : 70mg
Testosterone Decanoate: 65mg
Testosterone Enantate: 72mg
Testosterone Isocaproate: 75mg
Testosterone Phenylpropionate: 69mg
Testosterone Propionate : 84mg
Testosterone Suspension : 100mg
Testosterone Undecanoate: 63mg

Depending on what I'm running, if I'm doing a test suspension cycle, for example, then I do cause there is a pretty significant difference between no ester and the enanthate esters, or even prop. I'd probably run alittle more enanthate that prop or acetate, might be over thinking it though.

I never get involved in this shit. We over think this stuff wayyyy too much. Just trust your source and pin the gear and enjoy. Lol.

I do take it into account.
200mg of test prop is stronger then 200 mg of test ena.
Long esters ill run 750-800 test per week for example, and ill do 600-700 approx for short esters like prop.

 

[Krazydiamond]

I've heard a lot of guys say they get better results from prop than they do from a equivalent dose of dose of cyp or enthate. When you factor in the esters it makes perfect sense, they're getting more overall test per week when running prop. Kicking myself for not realizing this sooner

 

[copaseet]

can you pin test prop through an insulin syringe?

i homebrew. so i overdose my gear a little to compensate for the ester weight.
