Ok it's my first cycle. Everything is going great, only 2.5 weeks ago I first pinned and started my cycle, already gained around 7-8 lbs of pretty lean mass, without much water (taking 25mg dbol, can't wait to feel the test).
I finished my 6th pin, and the vial looks like it might have 3 pins left when it should have 4. So i'm guessing my syringe isn't measuing whats in the needle portion, or maybe I'm measuring the syringes wrong.
I pull back and match up the furthest bit of oil with the 1 ml mark on the syringe. So the dimple is even a little less than 1 ml and I know some people measure from the dimple. I also use just 1 needle, use the same one to pull from vial and inject, so none is getting wasted.
Anyway, so unless the vial was less than 10ml (GP test cyp btw), I'm getting a little more than the 500/week I was planning on taking. Should I keep measuring the same way, and just space my injections all 4 days apart instead of the twice a week I do now so that my cycle lasts closer to the full 10 weeks? I only bought enough for 10 weeks at 500/week, and I don't want to shorten my cycle because I use it all too fast (speaking of which, any downside to buying more, and then saving a partially used vial for next cycle? Do they go bad faster once you open em?)
Also is there any downside to slightly reducing the test a week I'm getting? If my math is right I'm getting like 580/week if the vial really does only have 3 pins left. If I lower that back to around 500 will that be worse than just continuing the 580/week?
