What’s your average length of cycle?

[Mattyn551]

How many folks run their cycles the “recommended “ lengths (12-16 weeks). I personally have never ran one shorter than 20 weeks and to be honest more like 30 weeks. I do blast and cruise so recovery isn’t a concern. It’s so hard to want to stop at 16 weeks. Most AAS don’t even really get goin til week 8-10. I am a recovering addict and always want more. I always check my bloods before, during and after. Never had any red flags on long cycles but would stop if I did or if sides begin to get bad. Anyways what’s your average length cycle?

8-24 weeks. Depends on the goal and the compounds being used. Typically I aim for 16-20

It's become much easier to get trt or cruise these days but anyone who does want to do a bunch of cycles and have a chance of rebound should stick with shorter esters in my opinion or even just transdermal. I always preferred the smaller more frequent pins.

Orals are between 8-12 weeks and injectables are usually 24 weeks. I used very low doses of whatever I'm planning on using, I'm injury prone and slow steady realistic gains are what I like... Blowing up 25lbs in the course of 3 months is insanity and begging myself for a torn something lol

Currently I'm on a epistane cycle at 30mg which will be 12 weeks. I'm trying to recomp into abs and stay over 195lbs, I'd like to end it at 200 with abs tbh.

3 to 5 years depending on the goal ...technically you can stay on as long as your bloodwork is on range. I just choose to use doses that don't make that possible

8-24. Just did a very modest blast for 8 weeks. I was making weight and couldn’t really take anything. I added some SARMS to my cruise, & the last 3 weeks bumped my oil total from 260mg/wk to an average of 400/wk. I also took an Anadrol daily the last 8 days plus some Dbol & Mtren on the meet day.

Previous cycle was something like 20-24 weeks, progressing from 500mg to 1.5g total the last month. Probably 750mg total average for most of it.

I guess my point is everyone is different and it should be needs-based. Whatever I take doesn’t affect your health, or necessarily align with your goals. Do what you need to to pursue your goals, balanced with your personal risk tolerance.
