What's up guys! So I'm planning out my bulk and planning on taking this cycle to the next level, in terms of what I'm trying to accomplish. I do have some questions about homeostasis that I want to nail down before I get it all lined up, and most of you guys are smarter than me when it comes to the science of things.
I have heard throughout the years that homeostasis is a real thing and that progress slows, if not stops after so many weeks, months, etc. I have also heard to continue progress and extend the cycle that one must up the dose of whatever AAS they are using. I'm also wondering if simply continuing to ramp calories would combat this. For me personally, I haven't experienced this, even with very long cycles. A trustworthy guy that most of us are familiar with has said that an 8 week on/2 week off blast and cruise is the way to go, even with long esters like nandrolone deconate and EQ. The science seems to support this and even with the long esters, after 2 weeks, although still working, the hormone is still clearing, and the redosing of the gear would take the same amount of time to reach peak blood plasma levels, hence starting the cycle over.
I'm also curious if planning a long cycle if it would be best to go 10 weeks on/4 off, then back to 10.
My next cycle is going to be a long one, moderately doses, yet very simple. I'm just trying to find out how to get the most out of it with minimal diminishing returns. I have the plan laid out, I just want to get the most of it, as my goals for this cycle is going to be different than any I have ever set before. Its an all out mass cycle.
Also for onlookers...Long cycles carry a very high risk to reward outcome. They are not intended (or I can't recommend them to anyone with a healthy HPTA) for healthy individuals who just want to cycle hear and there. I am on testosterone replacement therapy, so I am willing to risk a little more due to not being able to restore my HTPA. Caution is always advised to anyone, regardless of cycle experience.
