AFTER READING THOUGH AN EXTREMELY LARGE LIST OF OLD POST IN THE SEARCH, I AM WONDERING IF ITS BETTER TO TAPER WITH SUST OR NOT. MANY SAY "NO NEED TO TAPER, BECAUSE ITS SELF TAPERING". WHILE OTHER PEOPLE SAY TO TAPER IT, SO THAT YOU DON'T END SO ABRUPTLY. I'M JUST CURIOUS AT TO WHAT EVERYONES OPINION IS ON THIS? OH AND IF YOU WANT TO KNOW WHAT ELSE WOULD BE IN THE CYCLE, HMMMM, LETS SAY DBOL FOR THE FIRST 5 WEEKS, AND THE SUST WILL BE 500MG FOR 8 WEEKS, OR DO YOU TAPER? EAST_COAST_BB     | ||

You answered your own question, bro. There are many conflicting opinions out there, and that's most likely what you'll get on this thread, too, IF anyone else replies to it! It's your choice, and your's alone! The sust is "self-tapering," so it makes sense to run it straight through, in my opinion, though...just my 2 cents! ------------------ | ||

I ALWAYS THOUGHT OF IT AS SELF TAPERING, BUT I FOUND AND OLD POST WHERE E2 SAID HE WAS TAPERING IT AT THE END OF HIS CYCLE IN WHICH HE TOOK DECA AND SUST. I KNOW HE KNOWS HIS SHIT, BUT THIS MADE ME CURIOUS AS TO WHAT EVERYONE WOULD SAY AND THEIR REASON FOR TAPERING OR NOT. EAST_COAST_BB | ||

Here is my 2 cents: Run it at the same dose for the amount of time you wanted to do the cycle. Then add on two weeks and taper by 250. Or taper 1 week 250 then the next 500...Thats what i do. My cycle went like this: | ||

I would say do the last two weeks at 250 making it last nine weeks all together. Although it is self tapering. The more you do in doseage, the more careful you wanna be from tapering off too fast. ------------------ Rock On! | ||

Are you taking all 500mg at the same time, once a week? If so...I would wait 8-10 days after your last 500 mg injection and then take 250mg. I am a firm believer in hitting it really hard while on and taking a long time to cycle down. I think that you keep more of your gains if you use a long taper or sustaining dose at the end.

I'm in the same boat you are, and I decided that I will run it straight through. A lot of people are split on this one and you will get replies that say taper and some that say don't taper. Use you judgement and I'm sure you'll do it right. Good luck! | ||

From 500mgs there is no need to taper sust. | ||

No need to lower dose. The beauty of Sus is it will take 4-6 weeks to fully exit anyway. If you taper, you'd just be lowering the existing blood levels over that time. I think its better to keep the blood levels as high and stable as possible. Continue eating and use your ancillary Nalv/clom on the way out. | ||

Sus is self tapering. I would suggest u go straight through w/ only 500mgs/per week. ------------------ | ||

Omly taper if your max dosage is over 1 gram a week. In that case taper down to one half of the max dose for 2 weeks. ------------------ The moral? It doesn't matter whether you are a lion or a gazelle, when the sun comes up - you had better be running. | ||

YES SUSTANON IS SOME WHAT SELF-TAPERING BUT BETTER SAFE THAN SORRY. EXTEND YOUR CYCLE TO 10 WEEKS LAST 2 WEEKS 250 MG. SUSTANON BUILDS UP OVER TIME SO AT WEEK 8 YOUR NOT DEALING WITH JUST 5OO MG OF TEST. YOU WOULD PROBLEY BE CLOSER TO THE GRAM MARK SO YOU CAN SEE HOW TAPERING THOSE LAST TWO WEEKS COULD HELP. TEST OF ANY KIND BUILDS UP YES EVEN SUSPENSION. ON PROP. IT'S ONLY NECESSARY TO INJECT TWICE PER WEEK TO GET GREAT RESULTS. DON'T ALWAYS GO WITH EVERYTHING YOU HAVE READ OR WAS TOLD. TEST FOR THOUGHT!!!!! ------------------ | ||

There is alot of knowledge on this board with out a doubt.....But one thing I have learned through out the years is that what may work well for person may not for the next...The reality of cycling is that you must go through a sort of trail and error phase....tapering may or may not work for you. E2 and I beleave that some gear should not be tapered while others should 90% of that reasoning is due to the effects that the tapering took.......The only tapering I beleave in is androgens tapered by anabolics.....I for one do not taper dbol, sus250, anadrol, I just follow with a nice dose of anabolics. Sponge up the info weigh it out the options and get busy bro.... BIZ!! ------------------ GET BIG GUY'S!!!!!!!!! [This message has been edited by BIZ (edited October 27, 2000).] | ||

Sus can self taper and on only 500mg /week you'd be OK to go straight. However I believe that as you approach the 1g mark (or more) a taper is helpful. Its a much harsher drop in test if you are on higher amounts. You can jump off a car OK but if you were to jump off of something much bigger, say an airplane then you'd want a ramp to slow you down, wouldn't you? (that's my analogy) [This message has been edited by strengthmonster (edited October 27, 2000).] | ||
