Yeah I wasn't concerned about side effects at those dosages for that length of time
Was more concerned about it just being overkill
Having said that though, I was going to do 500/400 which is 900 a week so doubling the doses of test and deca to 1000/800 would be the same amount
I've never believed (well, at one time, I did... then I smartened up) that you needed to increase the dose with each cycle to keep making gains... this just isn't true.
I use the same amount now.... wait... no, I use LESS now than I did 10years ago and I still make gains.
I think the "prime" spot is around 4-5g's... in the past I've used 7g. but I look better now at about 20-25lbs less bodyweight and about 4% less bodyfat (which I maintain year round) using around 4g/wk than I did back when I used 7+... and back then, my diet was better. eating is a bitch when you're busy all day. i'm lucky if I get 4 training days a week, and since I do FSt7-style shit, my workouts are only about 30mins...... and I get even less done if my girl works out with me.
listen, if more was always better, I have enough stuff to run 20g/wk for years... but I don't. 4-5g or a few months, then back down to 1g for a month or so to "reset", mentally and physically, then back at it.
