How many people cycle their supplements?

[dsbhaver]

Everything

Agmatine, BCAA's, test boosters etc

Do you guys just have 2 weeks off here and there?

[kbayne]

Everything doesn't really help us help you. No one is gonna go thru every supp and say what you need to cycle and what you dont. What are the supps you are even taking?

[dsbhaver]

Oh I meant in a general sense!

Like does everyone just cycle all their supps as a general rule of thumb? Give your body a break etc

Agmatine
Creatine
Cirtulline malate
Beta analine
Test boosters (triazole & endo)

Green tea, cissus, fish oil and BCAA'S
Might chuck in a shake but hardly ever

[kbayne]

For many of your staples no need to cycle. But some people to. Personal preference.

For test boosters, natural anabolics, aromatase inhibitors, hormonal supplements, ect... depends on product but many you can take for 8-12 weeks then cycle off for 4 weeks.

Oh ok so need to cycle staples.

Yeah that's what I have to get better at. Cycling test boosters. Even libido boosters?

Yes even libido boosters.

I cycle my preworkouts every couple months.i take about a 2 week break just to take a break from stims,so at that point I usually don't take creatine.also test boosters as I saw stated in here do need to be cycled,libido boosters,ai products as well.

Ya I cycle stimmed pre-workouts every once and a while and go to a non-stim. But probably every few months.

The past 12-14 months I've Learned to cycle all products and ingredients and really read labels and directions to ensure I was following guidelines.. It has helped my wallet, my body, progress, etc.. I adhere to all label advice and usually when I cycle off one product (ie a test booster/AI) I will replace it for four weeks with something to help keep my gains (a gh booster / natty anabolic that doesn't work hormonal level..) hope that helps.

What about non stim pre workouts?

[mr.cooper69]

You should really cycle everything outside of creatine and maybe a probiotic. Yes, even multivitamins and fish oil (to prevent hypervitaminosis and omega 3 imbalances, respectively).

My, how quickly they grow.

[dsbhaver]

Ok, so 2-4 weeks off every 8 weeks everything is the normal protocol?

Oh I also take vitamin E every day

I am gonna miss the agmatine pumps! Haha

Just swap it out with something i.e., citrulline malate or nitrates easy peezy

I refuse to cycle my hemavol and compete.. I just can't train the same without em and they taste to damn good.. but I do cycle just about everything else but protein! The longest I'll run test boosters is 8 weeks.. Mike

Good idea!

So 2 weeks for the staples?

Is it 4 weeks more for the test boosters? (Hormones)

Haha this is the problem I have

[dsbhaver]

And plus I only go to the gym four times a week. Every other day I don't take citrlline, agmatine, creatine or beta analine or even BCAA's.

[bla55]

I sure do cycle them... whenever I run out of money it becomes hard for me to buy them so I end up taking a forced 1 month break every now and then. hahah

[VaughnTrue]

Not all supplements need to be cycled.

As CriticalBench already mentioned, no one ever needs to cycle off of Hemavol or Compete...so you get to enjoy the intense effects 24/7/365!
