cruising and blasting?

What are your ideas on this, and how many are doing it? How safe is it long term? It looks like a 12 week cycle of blasting and then a cruising time would not be to bad.

the point of blasting is to keep it shorter duration high dose so HPTA recovery is easier. 12 weeks would be a common cycle.

I do it and like it. Others here have more experience w the science of it, but for me, at age 48, (since I'm on hrt and dont make enough natural test to maintain my size anyway, and will be on test the rest of my life anyway), the blast and cruise thing works real good for me.

I am thinking about cruising at a dose of 250mg/week. Is there any health probs or sides at this dose?
you shouldn't imo as some people are actually prescribed trt at 200mg/week. I would get bloodwork done every few months to monitor however as your lipids could become skewed or your hemoglobin/hemocrit values rise too high.

also, i didn't realize you meant blasting and cruising in that manner (ie cruising being trt). i was thinking of it in the manner of DC training where the blast phase also entails aas at higher amounts and the cruise is pct and recovery from training.

Yea I was not very clear on that. (cruising as in trt) How much can you keep coming off a cycle with a PCT compared to just cruising at a low dose of 250? My problem is that when I come off a cycle I lose almost everything I gained, and I use a proper PCT.

i think that will depend a lot upon your training and diet. everyone is different there but you should certainly have better results cruising for the simple fact you will never have that abrupt drop in test then the slow rise back to normal levels.

keep the intensity up once you are off. don't immediately start a cut or diet after as that will also lead to the possibility of losing more muscle. continue eating slightly above maintenance but realize maintenance calories may change due to the lower amount of aas you are on and less protein synthesis occurring.

id also focus even more strictly on your diet here. eat proteins that are easy to digest such as fish and grass fed beef and salmon. this will make sure you are getting the most protein synthesis possible.

How do you know if you are getting grass fed beef or plain beef

Hahaha BY THE FUCKING PRICE!!! LOL.

No, it will say it. You will more than likely have to get it from an organic type store. Your local super market MAYYYYYY carry it but it's a long shot. It will be more expensive than your normal beef but I have found ground for $4.97 per lb which is pretty good. Most will be around $6 per lb.

I personally purchase it from a local a farm that raises grass fed beef. No hormones, no antibiotics, etc. Plus buying in bulk gets better prices :D

Or if you live out in the boonies there are cattle farms everywhere advertising grass fed cattle. You go and pick one out and get it slaughtered at the age you choose. I actually went went my father-in-law to look at some down the road. Its not cheap but for the amount of beef it pretty good. We are looking at four families going in together to split it.

Call it what you want but its basically HRT. My prescribed HRT dosage is 200mg Cyp/wk although I typically run 300-350 between cycles unless I know I have labs coming up within 5-6wks. Actually in the last several months I've resorted to running a gram or so (most of it being Prop.) then dropping to about 600mg/wk between cycles. I have a friend that's done the same thing for the last 6 years or so with great success running mainly Test. and adding in HGH periodically. I have been running other compounds as well but its mainly for experimentation. I'm moving closer each day to running Test only cycles.

I've been on for almost a year and plan to stay on.
Cruise dose - 200-300mg per week, 25mg Proviron per day
Blast - 500-750mg per week, 50mg Proviron per day
HCG 250iu twice a week for both.
I don't use anything else.

I'm on the wrong side of 40 and didn't recover from my last cycle, even with a proper PCT. I've had two full physicals and everything is fine. Doc said I'm the healthiest 47 year old guy he's ever seen.

Sounds like a solid plan. How do you like the proviron added in? Is it worth the price? I have ran low dose mast enth in the past and it helped incredibly with how I actually felt on cycle. Libido increased a ton.

I have HCG prescribed as well for 250iu 2x/wk but because of the 60 day shelf life after its reconstituted my insurance pays for 10000iu/month due to availability. The brand name gives a 30 day shelf life but the generic they send says 60, lucky for me they go with the 30 so I get plenty. lol
