I AGREE WITH GREEN, I WOULD TRY SOMETHING NEW AS WELL. I DON'T THINK THAT YOU WILL GET THE SAME GAINS AS YOU DID ON YOUR FIRST CYCLE BECAUSE ON YOUR FIRST CYCLE YOUR RECEPTORS ARE FRESH. GOOD LUCK M18 ------------------ | ||

I for one don't suscribe to the first cycle-best cycle theory. There is no counter in you AS receptors that keeps track of how many cycles you've completed. The reason most newbies gain the most on their first cycle is because they are at the furthest point from the amount of lbm their body can accomodate. This said, you may want to try the same cycle again but chances are you won't see the same gains since you are closer to that lbm maximum. You may want to try other AS however to see how your body responds to the various "supplements" available. | ||

There's no cycle like your first cycle because your body is totally unprepared to metabolize the exogenous hormone so it stays active for longer. In fact, if the number of receptors didn't increase, you wouldn't benefit nearly as much from additional cycles (IMO). People are concerned with receptor "clearance" or "saturation" but that is not as much as an issue as you may think. Gear doesn't make your receptors less responsive, it will actually UPREGULATE the receptors increasing their concentrations. Its the metabolization of the hormone that is going to make the difference from cycle to cycle in the amount of time the hormone remains active. You will develop a tolerance to whatever steroid you are taking just as you can develop a tolerance for other medications such as nicotine, painkillers, alcohol, etc. But, the longer you stay off, the lower your tolerance becomes. With that in mind, you could theoreticly attain the same results as your first cycle but it may be a long time before your body looses its ability to quickly metabolise it. -Stew | ||
