Men's Steroid Discussion

I know the saying that you should take as long off as you were 'on'. Some take twice that long. I know a guy who does 1x6 week cycle per year and he's happy with it. I know another guy who once stayed 'on' for a whole year without break.

How long do you stay 'off'?
Include AAS, HGH, 'slin, workout stimulants.
Exclude periods leading up to competitions.

These days I'm lucky if I get 2x8 week'ers per year.

Mines more from a HRT approach. Have been on gh for 18 months. My levels were low and just got my blood work back Friday and on one IU a day, 5 days a week am maintaining the levels of a 30 year old. For first three months was on 3 IU 7 days a week. On test I was on 250mg Sustanon for 10 weeks and now 250mg every two weeks and maintaining similar levels. Have been running for six months like this.

the time on = time off thing has only grew up since the advent of the internet to be perfectly honest, and has no factual basis. I hate the way it is banded about with certainty all over discussion boards.

I have tried all sorts of different things, long on/short off, short on/long off, staying on for extended periods, staying off, coming off with PCT/without PCT.

No one method is better than the rest to be totally frank, and I am contemplating a more dynamic approach these days - stay on until it feels like I CBA, take a break until motivation returns - however long these 2 time periods may be.

Think about it. Every time we start a new cycle, the gains gather momentum, but inevitably the grind to a halt for whatever reason - no one grows continuously. Surely it makes more sense to come off then, and dodge along - maybe with slightly reduced training intensity, then when fire returns, crank it up again - dynamically adjust your usage to what is happening on the ground.

Just my 2cents - but I know there is no point me styaing on for a rigid 12 weeks, just because that was the plan, when gains stop at 8weeks - I'd rather get off, recover a bit - not neccesarily run a full PCT because the more I read the more I dont see the point unless intending to stay of for an extended period - maybe jsut a little hcg to keep things idling along... just thinking out loud really.
