Here are a few replies to a thread on another board that I wrote. It is in response to adding more gear to keep gains during a cycle and after too, Its really doesnt come down to gear...ITS DIET!!!
I think this thread got more confusing!
This thread was started for a basic knowledge of cycling! I emphasized diet on multiple occassions!
Orals really dont make that big of a difference, believe me!
When you that far along in a cycle, its the diet that is the key!
Just think to when your gains start to slow. This isnt because of the Androgen receptor down-regulation( Myth ), its because of diet! If you eat the same throughout a cycle you will eventually top out!
If you consistantly keep eating more as the cycle progresses, you should make consistant gains throughout, but most dont realize this.
What is the result??? Ok, well lets take more next time, or lets add an oral and see what that does, or let me frontload...Etc, Etc, Etc.
Gear is just a tool! If you dont have the knowledge of how to complete the task, it doesnt matter what tools you have in your tool box....you still dont know how to do the job!
BUT....to maintain consitant gains throughout a cycle really has nothing to do with your dose or type of gear you are using, it all comes down to diet.
I can say I could gain as much as you would adding an oral to the last 2 weeks of the cycle by just consuming more cals.
Gains all come down to genetic potential and diet. If you dont eat to cross that line, you never will. If you do eat to cross that line, you must maintain that eating habit to keep those gains after the gear has left your system.
Most people I know surpass their genetic potential right around 6 weeks. Now for the most part they stop gaining. Why?? Because they cant or just dont want to eat the food needed to keep gaining.
Now this usually doesnt happen in your first few cycles as most have not even come close to their genetic potential.
I really dont like where you took this thread, but I'm glad we had some Mods ready to step in a clarify!
Please...all you guys who are thinking af using gear, please focus on your diet! This will be the key. This is why so many gain 25lbs and then lose it. They forget to eat and dont understand that food and only food will enable them to maintain the gains they just made!
As for my first post, the cycles are only there to give you an idea how to structure a cycle and not the Holy grail. The Holy Grail is diet, training, and rest!
Please read the main points!
