Question about trt blast(maybe mini blast)

[Gossamer]

I've been on trt for 16 months. 75mg/2w of test cypionate. I figured out that I have enough to double that dose for 10-12 weeks. Is it worth upping my dose to 300mg/wk for that short period? Will I see any benefit?

You would sew a benefit. It would put you at supraphysiological TT levels. Remember that you will need to increase your AI dosage or start using one most likely if your currently are not on one.

500 would be better for a starting dosage. You should consider supplementing your supply.

Make sure you take into consideration any upcoming blood work that your doc will want to run. You don't want to get busted.

Also, you may want to have Raloxifene on hand and even consider running it on cycle as an insurance policy against gyno. Learning how to manage estradiol on your first blast can be tricky.

Make sure you get blood work during your blast

Thanks Megatron.

I just wanted to start out on the conservative side. 300mg a week is all I'm willing to do at this time. On 150mg/week, I take .5mg anastrozole. Both test and anastrozole are split into 2 doses a week. So since I'd be doubling my test, I figured I'd start with doubling my anastrozole dose as well. Then maybe a month in, I'd get my E2 tested to see if I need to adjust.

I just want to know if 300mg/wk of test is going to make a noticeable difference.

And my next blood work for my Dr. Won't be until April. So I have plenty of time to get back down to my trt dose.

You should notice a difference. But it won't be an insane difference like if you were to run a full on blast. I always say if you are going to do it, do it right. But I understand your desire to be conservative.

What would you say your body fat % is?

On the 150mg of test per week and .50mg of adex per week, where does your TT and E2 come in at? Just trying to gauge how much AI you will need. Unfortunately it is not always a linear conversion.

My last labcorp test at trough, TT was 963, and estradiol sensitive was at 17.

Bf percentage is a tough one. I looked at a few sites that had pictures with corresponding body fat percent. I'd have to guess somewhere in the 15-18% range. I carry virtually no fat at all below my waist. And I can see my abs, but they're not ripped.

I would recommend starting at .25mg of adex every other day then. That might be a little too much so pay attention to how you feel and get labs. But if you like your E2 at 17pg/ml on TRT you will probably like it on the lower side on your blast.

@Gossamer : definitely don't double the AI to start off the blast like Mega said. My TRT had me initially on 1mg of Anastrozole twice a week taking 210mg of Test Enanthate and my E2 crashed. Doesn't feel good that's for sure. Im off AI for two weeks to bring it back up and will be starting a blast of my won. Good luck with the blast and the changes you will see. Id say 500 mg too, your already doing it and what you will see will be more to your liking.

Thanks guys.

I'll keep in mind that there's a good chance that 1mg anastrozole is too much for 300mg test. I had low E2 once (10 on the Labcorp sensitive test) and it didn't feel good. But then I overcompensated for low E, by waiting too long to resume taking anastrozole. I overshot my E2, and it went up to over 57! That caused random crying over nothing.

I'll tell you, keeping E2 in check has been easily the most difficult thing about trt.

57 is not that high. Give 200+ a try!

Was that 200 reading at trough? My 57 was at trough, when I didn't feel as bad. I can imagine what it was at peak when I felt my worst.

Often times until you have blood work on cycle or blast the same can be said. Luckily once you get dialed in you will have a great future starting point. Good luck and keep us posted.
