Dylan, first off let me say I respect your opinion and really appreciate all the time and advice u spend on these forums. I’ve been watching u help folks and reading your posts for YEARS! I’m going to have to respectfully disagree FOR MYSELF ONLY, everyone’s body is different and can tolerate/ handle diff things diff ways. I’ve never ran a cycle shorter than 20 weeks and have always continued to make gains and keep them and NEVER ( knock on wood, I’m superstitious as fuck) have any serious sides. I’ve had injuries that have resulted in me losing some gains but I never lose much gains from stopping a blast. I also stay on year round so recovery isn’t a worry for me. I run bloods constantly (and will post them if needed) and they always come back fine. Yea my cholesterol is a little high and I’m working on bringing it down. Again, this is ONLY ME but I tend to do better on longer cycles and I’m sure if everybody was truly honest you wouldn’t hear of many real “recommended” 10-16 week cycle lengths.
