Short and hard cycle or long and mellow???????

[Got Fina?]

Ok i was planning my next cycle and was wondering whats better.

A short but hard cycle, or run it longer but with less gear???

The cycles that i always ran was always easy on the mg but ran them a long time like 5 months...

which would u guys say is better and why???

Thanx.........

Depends ENTIRELY on the gear!

WHAT are you wanting to run?

 

[Bimmer]

depends on what you are running but you do not want to go for too little since most gear take a while to build up steady levels in your blood. I wouldnt do less then 8 weeks.

I think we need to see a comparison really. If you run a short cycle "hard" you are going to have higher blood levels so it will end up being "long" anyway to some degree.

Lets think about this in simple terms!

When you do a crash diet and lose a bunch of weight really fast, what happens? You gain it back even faster!

When you do a short cycle with a lot of gear to gain weight and strength really fast, what happens? You end up losing it.

Now why??

I feel that you body wants to stay where its at. The fast fluxuations throw you body out of whack and it goes crazy trying to get back to normal.

I have had much more succes with cycles lasting 10-15 weeks. I was able to maintain the muscle easier, because I didnt get as much rejection, as the weight came over time. I have also made the adjustments in my diet to maintain the weight.

There are many who love small cycles, but I would say you will find more who understand this concept more.

Good question.. ANy one else care to comment?

I started the game in 1990 and the idea then was 6-8 week cycles that pyraminded up and back down, at the time a LONG cycle was 10 weeks.

With the knowledge I have now after doing it a bit, I would not run one for any less than 12 weeks. Most of my cycles now tend to be based on a 16 week base, a little longer or a little less depending upon how everything is going towards the end.

I go for longer, even if modest doses are use I will at least continue to make small gains along the way.

me too bro , sides are reduced and i feel that long slow gains are more keepable than quick gains

Ride it out for a longer period. The gradual accumulation of gains are much more likely to be maintained post cycle.

Thanx on the replies u guys r always very helpfull..

Ok the reason why i ask because in the past i have done both.

Last year i ran Win 50mg/eod, Fina 50mg/eod for 5 months..

While some said that was crazy my body handled it good and got no sides that i noticed....

About 2 months after cycle seen the Doc and everything seemed normal...

The reason i feel that long cycle worked better on me was because i believe that if u get big over night ur gonnna loose it over night..

Where as when i do mellow doses and run it for longer more is actually mine since i did work out really hard for 5 months instead of 2.....
