Getting older, rethinking my cycling options..

[Theworm]

I'm 38 now and getting harder to recover from long cycles. I know I'll be on HRT in a few years, just not ready yet.
My thoughts are to preserve my HPTA and either do short ester 6 week cycles (prop, var and maybe primo ace) wait 12 weeks and repeat. Or just do 2, 10 week cycles a year with test e, primo e and anavar.
The short cycles would help my HPTA, but probably not long enough for results

You always sound so confused in your threads lol. Dude, the difference in a 6 week and a 10 week cycle in terms of shutting down HPTA is minimal at best. Run HCG with either and the results are the same. 38 isn't old...calm down.

Lol thanks man. I just finished a long test deca cycle and in week 4 of pct and I'll never do that again. I could do it at age 26 fine but at 38, I feel tired and achy as shit, 38 feels old when u pct after deca!

 

[BigSwolenPussy]

Yeah, deca is great for joint relief. Haven't found anything to match it yet.

38 huh. I wish I was that old.

i have not run everything under the sun, but what i have learned is that for me (im in my 40's now) test is best. simple test cycles are easiest to run, control sides, and recover from. it seems most take the 'kid in a candy store' view on gear these days, but this shit isnt candy and the long term effects can be pretty depressing.

What's ur cycles look like? I agree with u

There is more to it then just the amount of time your on cycle , the compound itself plays a role as well . Deca for example needs to be ran a long time, is super suppressive, has a super long ester and is in your system for a really long time. A deca cycle is much harder to recover from them say something like a VAR cycle (with a test base of course).

shorter blasts of things like test prop, stacked along with Var , primo, masteron, winny, Tbol , are going to be much easier to recover from. And have way less sides then traditional bulking cycles, like test, dbol, deca.

if youre worried about recovery i would personally stay away from 19-nors like deca and tren.. no other compound shuts you down harder and faster..

yep , especially deca which you have to run for like 14+ weeks. a 5 week blast of tren ace is not quite as bad ,, but definitely better options out there if recovery is your number one goal

actually it is.. the curve is sharp for both deca and tren.. so even 2 weeks of it has already shut you down really hard.. of course in terms of being shut down, the deca would have you shut down longer.. but we dont have studies on what difference that really makes in the long run

What's ur cycles look like? I agree with u

these days (last few years anyway) i would typically run ~1.5ml of cyp200 e4d for 3-4 months. cycle before last i had good generic hgh i started running a bit before hand and continued it a few months past pct. that cycle recovery was really smooth. last cycle i did everything the same but without the gh as i couldnt find any i was confident in, and recovery was definitely slower going.
