yes thats always an option. but if its possible to run without Test Id like to at least give it a try (Im one of the unlucky fellows who doesnt respond well to Test)
the article states that:
"The androgenic value of boldenone seems to cancel the anti-libido effect of nandrolone"
Is this proven? would anyone with some chemistry knowledge care to elaborate on the above statement??
I recall while on a straight EQ cycle i had no sides whatsoever even when i came off and didnt run a post cycle therapy, memory is vague but i think my libodo even increased from experience.
hopefully there's someone out there that has tryed this cycle?
this cycle isnt really a good idea. it really does not make sense that you would not respond well to testosterone, you were either not using enough, not using it correctly, or received a bunk supply. i have run overlapping eq/deca before, but never both at full force at the same time.
Nandrolone has a greater binding affinity for the AR than testosterone or eq. EQ has the same as testosterone. it seems to me that you are looking to maximize the anabolic effect while experiencing as little sides as possible. deca/eq certainly wouldnt be my choice....Also, eq is NOT as androgenic as testosterone...if you dont count the 1-testosterone conversion.
I have heard plenty of complaints about EQ and libido, and deca's libido restricting properties are very serious. Testosterone is always the best bet when it comes to libido. there is no substitute. i find eq and deca to give me MUCH more defined sides than testosterone. EQ shot my hematocrit up to 70% on 750mgs a week. that is no joke, extremely dangerous. Deca caused me to bloat up like a balloon and oblitered libido. furthermore, its lack of androgenic activity provided very sub par strength gains...I also wouldnt want to experience EQ and deca's mental sides at the same time. EQ tends to make people "on edge/paranoid" and deca tends to make people "euphoric" in a downright silly manner. I certainly received both of these sides, and looking back you will realize you were really quite a bit "off".
If you want the full package, just run a gram of testosterone a week, preferrably long ester. i dont know how people got it into their heads that test is "harsh" or "hardcore". it is really the most predictable and trustworthy steroid a bodybuilder can experience.
1-1 anabolic to androgenic ratio....androgenic and estrogenic sides completely controlabble...reliable strength gains and consistent mass gains.
in short, i would much rather run high dose testosterone than drop the dose and add eq or deca. On heavy bulking cycles or when joint problems arise....300-400mgs of deca will take care of it. that is probably the only situation i will ever find myself using deca in again. EQ and i just dont get along.
