Not only psychological, but strength wise, and physique wise. Obviously loss of water weight means a SUDDEN INSTANT drop in strength and a SUDDEN INSTANT shrinking effect on your physique. The less water weight lost suddenly, the better your strength will be and the better you will look. Especially once natural test and estrogen kick back up and allow you once again to pick up some water weight from just training.
Less drop, the better. SD bridge into another cutter steroid = less drop.
It's really not that big of a risk for a 6 week cycle assuming you have no pre-existing conditions, have supports, and you monitor your health and know what to look out for. Jaundice creeps up on people... it doesn't SUDDENLY appear lol. If you let yourself get to the point of Jaundice... you're an idiot. Flat out.
I quickly skimmed through this log and didn't know that's what he wanted to do.
I believe others have already pointed out SD/Phera bridged into Epi is a no no. Nobody told him to do that. They said drop the Phera, leave the Epi.
It made a huge difference for me. A world of difference.
I used hCG for my SD/Epi bridge. After stopping hCG in PCT, balls atrophied 20% for two days. After two days, completely back to normal. It was amazing. I loved it. I ate like sh*t in PCT cuz I didn't plan for school and my schedule got fukked up. Didn't even have protein powder for 1 week of PCT... yet I'm +15. So hCG combats SD/Epi suppressive nature very nicely and allows quick return of test levels (I didn't get bloods but I FEEL it in my nuts and body that I came back to normal rather quick). But I don't thing it's a BIG concern in the scope of real 12-14-16 week steroid cycles without hCG.
Test is really weaksauce in the scope of things. When I started the game, I thought test was the ultimate dark side. The ultimate gains from steroids.... psshhhht. Test is nothing but a base LOL. If you're a newb, test will do ya good, but if you've reached natural limits, test really won't push the envelope. Epi would be even stronger lol. Seriously.
LOL...
In all seriousness this isn't what I call arguing. I like having these discussions with people. Jason, tell us your experience with roids...
I saw Unreal's post first and so addressed alot of these similar points in my reply to him above. I don't want to side track the OP's thread any more than I already have, but I will address your statement on safety. You have to understand that liver tox, specifically cholestatic injury, isn't the only risk to health from using 17a-methylated steroids. Many will also cause substantial reductions in HDL along with similarly large increases in LDL. This will of course normalize a month or so post cycle (usually but not always), but it's not a healthy state to be in for extended periods of time. No, some reasonably dosed and reasonabe duration, well spaced cycles won't kill a healthy person, but often, what began as a reasonable approach can gradually become longer and more frequent. It's then that the problems begin. I'm not saying it's an issue here, just something to be aware of.
Thanks for the solid responses and discussion. I certainly don't see it as negative either. It's interesting and other members might take something from it as well.
See my response to Unreal above for more responses (if you're interested ;-)
I do apologize for the disruption Ninja. Good luck with your cycle bro.
