That’s my experience. Everything has slowed down, blood levels have been stable at some time and it doesn’t make sense to up the long esters really - you want to finish by increasing with fast drugs for the last push. NPP, Test/Mast Prop, Tren/Trest Ace, and all your orals.
The loss in water when you pull them will be more obvious because you are also stopping the long esters and coming off after, but they really do give that kick to reach a new zenith as well.
As Dave Tate likes to say, “Drop the jabs & up the tabs” at the end of the blast
