you might actually put on muscle and allow your body to catch up if you overcompensate on the calories, also gives your body time to deload and allow your joints to freshen up

sometimes i just do a week without even thinking about diet, training, whatever, and its a really great breather

nah man. after i got my sleeve done i didn't lift for 2 weeks, but was cruising on test cyp @ 500 mg weekly, and i actually came back after the 2 weeks very energetic, very full, and truly bigger than ever.

Doubt it.
I just took over two weeks off for a vacation out of the country, trained like a madman up to that point.
I gained a few lbs of solid muscle while I was gone, eating a lot of everything. (shot some long esters before leaving)
Just came back to the gym two days ago and was stronger than ever, the break was just what I needed.

So you are building muscles for years, even on gear just a several pounds of LBM might take pretty long time, but than you take just  2 weeks off and already panic on losing muscles?

Just relax and enjoy your time off.

How could you loose muscle when you are anabolic 24/7 ? You can't be catabolic on steroids

As long as you eat calories, no matter from wich food they are, you will put on weight on steroids
