How long should a cycle really be?

Snake47 · 14-10-2004, 02:10 PM

Stared taking 1-ad (300mg a day) but i was wondering how long to be on cycle? A lot of people say to be on cycle around 8 weeks but i was reading up that if you are only on a cycle for 2 weeks then your natural test production dosn't shut down. I was maybe thinking of doing 2 weeks on and 2 weeks off and repeating (using 6 oxo During pct). How would this work?

That ould work quite well.

I would however suggest a 4-6 week cycle followed by 4 weeks PCT of 6oxo

600mg weeks 1-2
300mg week 3
100mg week 4

personally i would run the same dosage all the way though for 6 weeks.

use pct at the end if you feel it is nessecary.

i have never done a 2week on 2 week off cycle, if you do it this way snake,

keep us all informed on how you get on, plus it will help others out in the future

i'm w/ steve, keep your dosage @ 600mg for 4 weeks... pyramiding is pointless as your test production is suppressed either way, so u might as well have 600 instead of 100.
Don't do a 2 on 2 off w/ 1ad... it doesn't act fast enough to do it this way. Do a solid 4 weeks since it won't kick in til the middle of week 2 if you're lucky. You might also wanna get some 4ad to throw in there @ around 600-900mg ED. If not, you'll be quite lethargic and not eat as much as you should.

Whoops, seems like you misread my post, either tht or it was badly put. The dosages I suggested were for the 6oxo.

I was suggesting he ran the 300mg a day of 1AD for 4-6weeks, then the 6oxo

lol meathead,

yeah i misread your post, thought it was for the ph

GettinSwole · 14-10-2004, 09:58 PM

I did as well, your 6-oxo doses are fine, but maybe a lil over-dosed. I would pyramid down weekly
PCT
Week 1 - 600mg 6oxo
Week 2 - 400mg 6oxo
Week 3 - 300mg 6oxo
Week 4 - 200mg 6oxo

You should also consider throwing some other natural test enhancers in there like tribulus or ZMA

Thanks.I think i will go with the 4 weeks on and four weeks off taking 300mgs a day. If i only do two cycles of 1-ad, as long as my pct is fine will i keep all or most of the gains forever, also what kinds of tricks are there for the best pct please.
PS...I read some sites talking about taking 500-600mgs a day. Is there a point and if so, do i take two tablets three times a day or one tablet six times a day?
Cheers

It takes a long time for aromatose to recover, so 6 once a day(before bedis best) will do fine.

No-one ever does only 2 cycles

And in fairness, you probably wont keep all of your gains!

Snake47 · 15-10-2004, 06:26 PM

sorry meathead, i meant 600mgs of 1-ad a day, how would that be spaced out?
