So I have 3 weeks left on my 300mg 150x2 a week test cyp cycle, 10 week total, in week 7. Question is, just pct an let body recover an consider another cycle? Or if I had the resources for more test it’d be nice to be able to cruise at 150-200, running with hcg an armidex/arromasin aswell for awhile? This is only my second cycle an haven’t done a ton of research so please be kind, I feel great 7 weeks in, an just curious how some of you have gone about your next cycle or cruise till next? Thanks guys!

Natural hormones are a wonderful gift.
Don't throw them away.
PCT.

cruising is really more about accepting you will end up on trt imo bro.

how old are you? Have you had all the kids you want?

they are the key questions in this context.

cruising involves shutting down your natural production for a long time. Yeah some guys can do that and recover full levels (in the same way some guys run one cycle and never recover). On average though the longer you cruise/stay on the more likely you are to only have low natural production when you come off.

what was your natural level before you started using?

Cruise if youre willing to end up on trt for life. Cruise if you’re a psychopath and your whole life is around bodybuilding and lifting weight. Do not cruise otherwise you will regret it.

Yeahh I figured that was the smart play, I don’t have the children I want yet, I’m 28, my T level was really low prior tho, 30 points over the point where my insurance would cover TRT or my dr woulda put me on it, an yeah ima pct an see where I land. Just figure it’ll go back to bein low again an I won’t be able to keep muscle and weight on, but Atleast stay fertile, my mother just got diagnosed with breast cancer 2 weeks ago so put things in perspective , one thing I needa give her is a grandchild, I owe her that Atleast. I appreciate it

This is true. Cruise/blasting is a selfish endeavour.
Yeah the selfish part is true, I do I needa make my mother a grandmother, I owe her that. Appreciate the input

Appreciate all the input, gonna pct an see where I land. Hopefully I’m ok, if not see from there but prob try natural things first before gettting on TRT, not the time to make a lifetime commitment atm.

TRT aside, if you add in all the support/health supps and ancilliaries it can get quite expensive. Plus obviously there is the food commitment, training, cardio, etc. And it can 100% fuk with your headspace in any number of ways. Juggling all this with a family...you need an understanding and sympathetic partner. Just my thoughts :)

I started cruising and blasting early in my age. I don’t want children and I’ve gone a few years without any gear. This is my first year in a long time I’m doing a blast and cruise. If you decide to do it be prepared for the consequence. You’ll be fine I’m sure a lot of ppl do it. Be ready to be shut down possibly for the rest of your life

Just remember in three years your mindset could be completely different and you may be much happier just maintaining a lean muscular build where steroids aren't even needed. But you might be stuck pinning just to feel normal. If you pcted in 3 years and gave it 6 months you'd probably be fine but just saying its a risk

sorry to hear about your mother bro. Hope she is ok.

your making the smart move based on where your at, life is way more than a few pounds of muscle. The options for cruising/blasting/trt etc aren’t going anywhere so you can revisit when circumstances are right.

Since test cyp lasts a week in the body, you want to start PCT a week after your last shot.

Just to echo the sentiment already presented: if you do not need to cruise to accomplish specific serious competitive endeavors, don’t cruise.

Otherwise, there will come a time when you will know you want/need to cruise. That may be after the next cycle, but you want to KNOW it’s time - it’s not a light decision. I have been cycling since I was 21, now 30. I have always PCT’d and just now finally we tried and I am going to be a father in a couple months. I am very grateful I made the decision to PCT when my friends stayed on for life - I will eventually blast and cruise, but it was great to be able to get my wife pregnant without needing a fertility protocol when we made the decision to go for it.

The muscle always comes back when I go back on. It’s just more of a dramatic transition between Clark Kent and Superman for me.

the half life is a approx week bro, it’s about 4-5 weeks to clear......

would normally start Pct 2-3 weeks after last shot.

nolva should be enough bro, most people just use one or the other.

if you’ve been using hcg on cycle you don’t need to mega dose it pre pct (there is two different ways to use it commonly suggested, 500 a week on cycle like you have been to keep the boys bouncing or none on cycle then a few big doses for a 1-2 week period before pct. I personally just use all the time on blast or my cruise)

I would take the nolva for 5 weeks (so 20/20/20/20/10 if your going to start two weeks after last pin. Metabolism of compounds varies person to person but on average it’ll take 4-5 weeks to clear the test so you want at least 3 weeks for the nolva to clearly be having an effect.
