Short cycles: 2on/4off?

[Gobus]

I'm about to get off a 10 wk cycle of 400mg EQ wk and 500mg Test wk. I was reading about the short cycle program here:

Short cycle

A couple of questions:

1.) If this a good cycling method? Does it actually work well?
2.) How long should I wait after my current cycle before beginning this type of protocol?
3.)Just to make sure, I would do something like 500mg Test/wk for 2 weeks, stop for 4 weeks, and begin again at 500mg Test/wk for a few cycles?


Thanks for any help.

even if these short cycles work you couldnt use anything but very short acting esters of injectables which means no deca,eq,eth,cyp,omnas,sus250,etc . im not a fan of these short cycles

you could do like 2 weeks of 150mg prop EOD and 40mg dbol ED...then stop for 4 weeks and do it again... but most say that longer cycles are better, but i would see short ones like this as better for people who have a hard time being off for so long...
if you want to do this, you should probly wait at least 10 weeks after you finish this last cycle to start...so you can get your hormones back to normal and all...

I think they are a great alternative to those who are not trying to become serious bodybuilders or competitors. 2 weeks on shouldnt be nearly as hard on your body, and the 4 weeks off is a good time to help solidify those gains before your next 2 weeker. I think they work good and I will be doing the same thing with Dbol as soon as my blood tests come back. Gotta make sure everything is in line before hand.

I think they're a waste. I remember posting on some threads about short cycle, the last guy was going to run them because he though they were a good idea and post his results.

I haven't seen anyone post any results from doing short cycles and the idea has been around for over a year, that I know of.

There are a few people out there that have tried them, if they were good they'd be posting results and singing the high praises of short cycles.

you might and i mean MIGHT get results with 2 week blitzes of short acting esters and orals followed by 4 weeks of hrt , cycled back and forth

 

[What_It_Is]

I think everyone's ideas of results are different and the scale of which one determines success is very broad. Someone such as myself see 10 lbs of muscle with some fat is successful. I'm an ectomorph who needs just a little boost though. To someone else, this method is a complete waste of time and money. Just like all steroids are different, so are people's body types and intentions.
To each his own, as long as its thought out thoroughly. Someone doing 2 weeks of Dbol should not be expecting much, its that simple.

if i was to do it, it would be all orals and suspensions and bases. No esthers whatsoever. But I wouldn't do it, the reasoning behind it supposedly is that you dont' shut down at 2 weeks I beleive. But who cares, most of us don't have recovery problems. it takes me six weeks to really get good results off tren, i doubt this would do shit for me.

I'm summation, I think dumb is a good description. Stick to what works.

I did a 4wk cycle of Tren, Prop and Dbol. The first 2wks were bad because I got the flu twice from the Tren/Pro shots. But I did manage to gain 15lbs. But 12lbs of that was what I lost from my last cycle. But when I stopped I only lost 5lbs. I dropped from 225 to 220 and strength was holding up good. That was 2 1/2 months ago and just this last wk I lost another 5lbs. Had alot of stress the last couple of wks, so now I'm down to 215. I want to gain that 5lbs back before I start up again. But my next cycle will be alot longer. You just have to stick yourself to much with those short cycle.

But to answer your question I think 2wks cycles are a waste of time.

But your still on some kind of juice. I think the idea behind the short cycle 2on 4off is that you won't need recovery(pct), at least that's the way I heard it.

I could try that, I'm on HRT who needs recovery when your on all the time

I tried the short cycle approach and it didnt work for me, but there were other variables that may have affected it. I do prefer long cycles myself
