Repost:Short cycle strategies....

[HUCKLEBERRY FINNaplex]

I see a lot of misconceptions of what constitutes a"short cycle"going on lately.I constantly hear so and so talk about"Yeah,I'm planning on doing a short cycle that will consist of four weeks of test".This is missing the whole benificial strategem behind this newer"fad"type of cycling,and I'll explain why that is--2 WEEKS is the maximum one should be"on",for the following reasons:In the first two weeks of high androgen levels,pituitary response to Leutenizing-Hormone-Releasing-Hormone(LHRH)not only does not decrease,it actually IMPROVES(Which basically means your pituitary is sensitized,and therefore leutinizing hormone output is increased,which is obviously quite benificial).BUT-AFTER THE 2 WEEK POINT:The pituitary rapidly becomes unresponsive to L-H-R-H.Thus,both the Hypothalamus(which produces L-H-R-H)and the Pituitary(which produces Leutenizing Hormone)are now in a state of inhibition,and must ride out a longer recovery process.The moral here is,from a SUPPRESSIONAL standpoint--You guys that are stretching your cycles out past the two week point might as well just do the standard 8 week cycles,since full inhibition has already occurred.If kept to 14 days and under,recovery is almost immediate,as only the hypothalamus has to recover,not the pituitary.Here's some helpful hints for staying within the time frame,thus reaping the benifits behind this particular method of cycle:Stick to orals and injectibles with short acting esters.Any of the orals are acceptable as they all have fast clearance times out of the body.Suitable injectibles include:Suspensions(Aqueous,Winstrol)acetates,propionates,and phenylpropionates.Hope this clears up some of the misconceptions and helps any of you fellas thinking about experimenting with this method in the future.---Huck

I never tried a short cycle. Is 2 weeks on 2 weeks off ok?

No,you need a full 4 weeks off for complete recovery of the H-P-T axis.Otherwise,you will be in a state of continual inhibition...

Huck I see people talking about using a light drug in-between the heavy ones i.e. anavar or primo. Any thoughts ? Would there be any drug that would be good to use this way?
Are there any steroids that dont affect the pituitary?

 

[HUCKLEBERRY FINNaplex]

Yes.The two you mentioned will not inhibit LH production to any great degree if used in light to moderate amounts.Primo can be used to bridge with at 200-400mgs/week.Oxandrolone can be used at 20-30mgs/day with little to no LH inhibition whatsoever.Marvelous compounds,no doubt

Thanks so much for the info Huck , Its so nice to have people like you on these boards.
Im going to try the short cycle and see how I like it

 

[HUCKLEBERRY FINNaplex]

Good luck buddy.Look forward to hearing your results...

Huck should I use the dbol/prop for 2 weeks or would 10 days be safer?
I was thinking 10 days but wanted to get your feedback . Thanks again

 

[HUCKLEBERRY FINNaplex]

You could go up to day 11 to 12 with the prop,and day 13 with the d-bol...

Ok thanks again Huck
