DR.D-
I have been extremely happy (and tired) to read through this thread, and learn about pulsing.
After swearing off SD for its side-effects, I think I'm going to run it as a pulse. My last two cycles (regular, not pulsed) have been Epi (Havoc), and the last one I ran was 5 weeks, 20-30-40-40-40. I've come back fine with OTC PCT both times, and have been happy with my results.
I have a couple of questions, because I see some differences in some of the recommendations you've given (which is bound to happen over 97 pages!)
1. What would you recommend for dose/length? My plan is for 4-5 weeks, M-W-F, 10-20-20-30-(30). And if I remember correctly, on the odd doses, I want to take the larger dose post-, versus pre-workout, because SD is anabolic, correct?
2. You made the statement early that running a Test Booster as a core, with the pulsing, would be an excellent cycle, but then have also talked about taking just AIs on days off, low doses of T-Boosters on days off only, etc. What would be your recommendation for SD, at the doses and lengths I laid out above? My fave T-Booster right now is T-Bol from Thermolife, and my AI of choice is usually 6-OXO. Would you recommend something different/better?
3. Would my Havoc OTC PCT be sufficient? I run T-Bol and Post Cycle Support (from AI) for 4 weeks, beginning day one, at the recommended doses on the bottle, and I bring in 6-OXO on week 2 (or 3, I've done both), and taper it for 4 weeks, at 3-2-2-1 pills per day.
I genuinely appreciate you taking the time to share your experience with the rest of us, and answering peoples questions. I'm sure there are times when 'if I only had a nickel...' runs through your mind, but you answer it anyway!
Thanks!
