I did a cycle of 400mg test E, 400mg, deca, 50mg ed all for 10 wks. I did not use pct because my dealer said that it was low dose and i wouldnt get any side effects. I gained 30lbs from this and after 4 wks off i have lost 15lbs . I know that a lot of it was water but im affraid im going to lose all my gains. This was my first cycle after 12yrs of training. Im training harder now to keep my gains but i fade sooner now and cant keep up the same workload . Should i use pct next time to keep most of my gains, is there anything i can do to keep what i have ? Any and all advice would be GREATLY appreciated thanx!
First please don't call hima 'dealer'. He is a 'source' ok. We are not rec using numbskulls.
Second: find a new source. If this guy doesn't know that deca shuts you down harder(HPTA) then any other AS then I wouldn't trust him with anything else.
What I mean by the above statement is this. When you take (most)AAS you natural test production shuts down. Your testes make the test, you must have noticed some atrophy in your nuts. This happens because your body has an overabundance of test running through it so the bodythinks that it is tso much that in fact it doesn't need to make any of it's own.
Since your body has been shut down for 10 weeks it is going to take that long in order for you to get back into full production again unless some pct is in place. We use pct so that we can shorten the time it takes for our bodies to start making it's own test again. The shorter the time this takes the more of your gains you will keep. Make sense?
Now, because Deca shuts you down so hard I like to use HCG into my cycle, towards the end but not at the end. HCG therapy should be ended 2 weeks before you start PCT. HCG basically gets your nutsa back up to the normal size so it is even easier for your body to begin producing its own test. Keeping the horse in the barn so to speak.
A typical PCT would look like this.
------------------------------------------
3 weeks before last AAS shots:
HCG @ 500UI twice a week for 3 weeks shot sub-q(into fat, like slin, usually in the belly area)
2 weeks after your last shot:\
Nolva(week 1/2/3) : 40mg/30/20 ED
Clomid: first day take 200mg, second day 150, third day 100 then 50 mgED for the remainder of your pct.
This is just a basic idea of PCT and is not set in stone, just enough to give you an idea of what you are doing.
No matter how small or mild the cycle always do PCT, plz. Forget what this yahoo says, next time tell him you want to do PCT anyways. If he does not have at least Nolva and Clomid find a new source.
