I am certain that I join many others in frustration surrounding methylated PH/PS (Methyl 1-test in particular) cycles and questions. I've been thinking quite a bit about a sane, conservative cycling alternative to counter all of the questions such as, "How many 2 on 2 off cycles can I run in a row?"
The first thing that jumped in my mind for short cycling was MuscleTrainee's "Initial thoughts on short cycling" thread at Anabolic Extreme. He is a proponent of short 2, 3, and 4 week cycles with fast acting injectibles and methylated orals/injectibles followed by standard PCT protocol and then a minimum 2 weeks of being clean. Since the methylated PH/PS, transdermal PH/PS, and 4-AD prop are fast acting PH/PS I was thinking this could be the basis for a sane cycling regiment.

2 Week Cycle:
- Days 1-14: Methyl 1-test - as low as possible dose that will still illicit gains
- Days 1-14: 4-AD - as low as possible dose that will still illicit gains and counter M1T sides(166.67 mg - 666.67 mg transdermal or 750+ mg injectible propionate).
- Days 15-25: 40 mg of Nolvadex or 150 mg of Clomid (use SERMs only)
- Days 26-30: 20 mg of Nolvadex or 100 mg of Clomid (use SERMs only)
- Days 31-35: 10 mg of Nolvadex or 50 mg of Clomid (use SERMs only)
- Days 35-49 (even better would be day 63): 100% clean. That means zero anabolics, androgenics, anti-estrogens, or SERMs.
- Assess cycle and repeat if desired.
- Days 1-21: Methyl 1-test - as low as possible dose that will still illicit gains
- Days 1-21: 4-AD - as low as possible dose that will still illicit gains and counter M1T sides(166.67 mg - 666.67 mg transdermal or 750+ mg injectible propionate).
- Days 22-32: 40 mg of Nolvadex or 150 mg of Clomid (use SERMs only)
- Days 33-37: 20 mg of Nolvadex or 100 mg of Clomid (use SERMs only)
- Days 38-42: 10 mg of Nolvadex or 50 mg of Clomid (use SERMs only)
- Days 43-56 (even better would be day 70): 100% clean. That means zero anabolics, androgenics, anti-estrogens, or SERMs.
- Assess cycle and repeat if desired.
- Days 1-28: Methyl 1-test - as low as possible dose that will still illicit gains
- Days 1-28: 4-AD - as low as possible dose that will still illicit gains and counter M1T sides(166.67 mg - 666.67 mg transdermal or 750+ mg injectible propionate).
- Days 29-41: 40 mg of Nolvadex or 150 mg of Clomid (use SERMs only)
- Days 42-46: 30 mg of Nolvadex or 100 mg of Clomid (use SERMs only)
- Days 47-51: 20 mg of Nolvadex or 100 mg of Clomid (use SERMs only)
- Days 52-56: 10 mg of Nolvadex or 50 mg of Clomid (use SERMs only)
- Days 57-70 (even better would be day 84): 100% clean. That means zero anabolics, androgenics, anti-estrogens, or SERMs.
- Assess cycle and repeat if desired.
- Athlete would always have off time greater than on time
- The tapering of SERMs and 100% clean time would allow sufficient time to recover.
- The 100% clean time would allow athlete to train naturally with the new muscle, and some time to get their bodies used to adding weight or reps each workout without hormonal assistance.
- The 100% clean time would allow time to re-establish caloric intake necessary to keep making gains.
- Bodybuilding is a sport for life, and continuous 2 on, 2 off cycling is not a lifetime approach to the sport.
