I prefer to run low dose Test with another compound like Eq or Deca. Maybe add some Var into the mix.
I haven't used an AI in 5 years.
Also, two years ago i ran 600mg Eq and 600mg Deca for 16 weeks; felt great the entire time with no issues. I can't say it made me look any different.
The only compounds that really make me look different, when i'm lean, are Tren, Winny, Drol and GH.
I still believe a low replacement dose of Test is needed for about any cycle, but leaning away from high Test cycles mainly due to BP issues. I actually hold more water on Deca than any other compound, but with a tight diet i don't get bloated on high doses of anything really. Test and Tren just seem to send my BP through the roof.
