Question about cruising.

[DanielPaul]

I you do not drink, smoke, use rec drugs and keep BP in check how long could you cruise on 250 mg of test cyp before developing some negative side effects?

[Humble Narcissist]

For life.

[Van_Bilderass]

Come on man, there's no way to answer this.

I do however think quite a few could keep it up for say 50 years. Some while drinking, smoking some weed and doing occasional rec drugs.

One of my training partners has been on since he was about 20. He's 56 now. His cruise is 1000mg of test with a few CCs of this and that. Recently he did a year of Anadrol, 50-250mg/day, took a few weeks off and then went back on. No it's not healthy but he claims a gram of test is no big deal, it's basically HRT 

[DanielPaul]

I get it that everyone is different, that being said I’m just looking for personal experience people may have had. I like this dose and pretty much have no sides other than an insane libido. I do add 50 mg of Deca every once in a while if I’m having joint pain but all and all it’s been pretty great.

do you intend to be on for life, if so would you reduce your dosage as you get older and how often do you get bloods?

have you accrued considerable size from prolonged use at that dosage? I would be smashing the weights all year round, could not take it easy.

and your problem is?

[deadz]

I maintain 210lbs yr round. Not interested in being heavier a 6’. I have a hard time taking it easy also and I pay for that on recovery.

[deadz]

I’ve gone up to 1000mg a week for eight months and never looked better. Now I stay at 500mg and throw some var in a couple times a year. I also donate blood.

Came off for three months with HCG to get wifey pregnant. Healthy 5 yr old son.

There were guys years ago on the old MFW newsgroup that were 50's - 70's staying on decent, but mellow stacks ( under a gram, no tren, halotestin, anadrol ) that didn't have horrible problems.

Realistically, you'd have to think that a decent amount of the older (60's - 80's) pro bodybuilders, powerlifters, etc....stay on probably better than trt doses year round, and they're not dropping like flies if they stay active, etc....

If you're even half way built for it, you can stay on for a long time.

Heck even wild Billy Mimnaugh lasted till his mid 50's before he got sick.

[LurkerNoMore]

Just to compare what the OP asked with what the standard protocol for HRT is here :

200mg Test Cyp weekly
500 ius twice weekly HCG
1mg arimidex weekly

If your lipids and hematocrit are in range, should not have any problems.  The most obvious problem for long term test use is, of course enlarged prostate.

Possibly.

Depends on many things.

I've been on Test for 12 years, up and down, blast and cruise.

My prostate is perfect. No homo.

The only issues i've had are with blood pressure and that seems to be more due to my bodyweight. Once i hit 230 pounds it's like my BP skyrockets, it doesn't matter if i'm on 200mg a week or 800mg.

I try to stay around 220 and i cut down to around 205 every Spring for 3-4 months.

I'm in perfect health on "paper". There are some AAS that mess up my cholesterol and blood cell count. I do not use Tren, Mast, Proviron, Drol or winny.

I will only use Test, Deca, EQ, Dbol and Var.

Also Anti-e's wreck my cholesterol, so i don't bother with them.

I'm monitored by an Endo and have bloodwork every 60 days.

Sometimes i'll cruise on 200mg Test EW for 8 months or so, i don't blast for more than 4 months and when i do it's typically 400mg Test and 400mg Deca or Eq with some Dbol.

There is no telling what is really going on inside, but based on my Endo's feedback and how i feel; i'm definately healthier than the average American. No question there.

I believe eating shit food, drinking, smoking ,etc. are far worse for you "long term". But i do drink some wine every now and then. Smoke some weed a few times a year too.

My brother is in terrible health, has smoked and drank daily for almost 20 years. I'm sure he will stroke out far before i do, but who knows.
