Front Load SD?

[skih00k]

I noticed that during my cycle with SD that the effects kicked in major around day 4 or 5. I also noticed that the "constant pump" and night sweats continued until around 5 days into PCT. With that in mind I'm guessing that each dose of SD will stay in your system to some degree for around 5 days. Based on that I "loosely" calculated that each day 20% of the dosage is removed from the system. So, I'm wondering if it would be possible to kick up the dosage on day one and maybe even day two or three so that the total amount of SD in your system for those first few days would be equal to or maybe even greater than the rest of the cycle. I put togther a few theoretical scenarios of SD daily dosage and buildup in the body. The "Total in Body" column is calculated by adding that day's dosage plus 80% of the previous day's dosage plus 60% of the day previous to that, etc.

Normal Cycle:
Dosage Total in Body

Day 1 10 10
Day 2 10 18
Day 3 10 24
Day 4 10 28
Day 5 10 30 - Constant Pump Kicks In
Day 6 10 30
Day 7 10 30
Day 8 10 30
Day 9 10 30
Day 10 10 30
Day 11 10 30
Day 12 10 30
Day 13 10 30
Day 14 10 30
Day 15 10 30
Day 16 10 30
Day 17 10 30
Day 18 10 30
Day 19 10 30
Day 20 10 30
Day 21 10 30
Day 22 0 20
Day 23 0 12
Day 24 0 6
Day 25 0 2 - Constant Pump Gone


Accelerated Cycle 1:
Dosage Total in Body

Day 1 40 40
Day 2 10 42
Day 3 10 42
Day 4 10 40
Day 5 10 36
Day 6 10 30
Day 7 10 30
Day 8 10 30


Accelerated Cycle 2:
Dosage Total in Body

Day 1 40 40
Day 2 20 52
Day 3 10 50
Day 4 10 46
Day 5 10 40
Day 6 10 32
Day 7 10 30
Day 8 10 30


So, it would appear that you could possibly kick-start your cycle by bumping up the first day or first and second day. Then maybe you would see the results of day 5 or 6 on day 2 or 3.

Please understand that I am a complete noob and I'm not even complete with PCT of my first cycle. All of the above is just me thinking out loud about a simple idea I've been kicking around. Feel free to shoot at will.

Is all of this based on the fact that it stays in your body and leaves in exact increments of 20%? That's not exactly exact science...

What if it goes 33% on day one, 18% on day two, etc. etc.?

Yes, I guess that the rate of removal from the system could be more of a curve than a straight line. I just felt like the decrease in the constant pump was a consistent, slow decrease as opposed to an abrupt change.

Then again, the constant pump could be a secondary effect and not directly related to the actual anabolic effect that gives the strength increases and weight gains.

Anyone have a better understanding on how SD is processed from intake to anabolic effects?

It depends on the exact half life of the substance you're ingesting. If you knew that you could calculate the rate at which it is emitted into your system and develop the type of dosing protocol you're talking about. Someone correct me if I'm way off here

It was the same for me. But I have to add that the pumps decreased constantly til the 5th/6th days after the cycle, it wasnt a night and day cessation of the effect.

As a follow-up I just started a new cycle and front loaded with 40 mg on Day 1. Here's the results:

Day 1 - 40 mg -> Bench 4x225
Day 2 - 20 mg
Day 3 - 20 mg -> Started feeling the constant pump; not major though. Up 3 lbs.
Day 4 - 20 mg -> Bench 6x225 (Had been stuck at 3-4 reps since end of last cycle). Up 4 lbs.
Day 5 - 20 mg -> Up 5.5 lbs (did 1200 cals worth of light jogging last night too)

I'm really focusing on my protein count this time and I think it might be helping my weight gain. As you can see I'm doing 20 mg/day on this cycle and that is probably jump starting the weight gain too. So, the weight gain and early pump seem to be indicators that things are moving along quickly but I can't say for sure that the front load made a significant contribution.
