I have just started a Deca cycle 200mg-300mg a week nothing strong, for 8 weeks. I always did freeweghts on past cycles and had great results but i have been doing more machines for shape wich have worked great. But you know the old saying freeweight for size machines for spahe and cuts.. Would a mix be the best

Thanks for the input

" That which does not kill me, will make me stronger"

Pulling exercises are self stabilizing so
in my opinion, there is no down side for
using machines. They load and unload
easier and they force you to use good form.

Also, if any freeweight exercise ever
causes pain in the wrong muscle (eg
sometimes barbell curls kill my deltoids)
I switch to a machine.

Others may differ in opinion, but I'm not
convinced that compound exercises are mass
builders and isolation exercises are for
detailing. I think this is a myth created
by observing the physiques of powerlifters
and bodybuilders and comparing their
respective routines. I, therefore, don't
think it makes sense to extend this logic
to mean "compound exercises during mass
cycles" and "isolation exercises during
cutting cycles."

I think the only generalization you can make
is "compound exercises for working lots of
muscles at the same time" and "isolation
exercises for working one muscle at a time"

Great input bros.
