Thread: high dose TRT or blast

I'm on 100mg / week TRT

Would be it more effective to run a higher dose of TRT at 150-200mg constant, or 100mg 12 weeks then 12 weeks 300-400mg ?

Have you ever run a cycle before?

only TRT 100mg, been on it for around one year.. Actually made very nice gains from that alone.

I assume you are new to training or have not trained in a while? Dudes I know that get trt from anti-aging clinics get dosed 200mgs/week. I am under an endo and only get prescribed 100mgs/week; they have different philosophies on what is best for the long term.

IMO since you are making progress you should think about bumping it up to 200mgs/week for a bit, access how you feel and if your progress slows you can do a 400mgs/week blast and see how you like it. If you are making progress and feel better there is no need to go fast. Nice and slow allows you to access how the compounds affect you at different doses.

its been around 5 years since I trained last... But have been training hard for the past several months.

Blasting and cruising is the way to go unless you're a competitive athlete or you just don't give a fuck. No sense in running high all the time and putting yourself at a higher risk for sides and long term health risks if you don't have to.

When you're cruising, you're taking the TRT dose that keeps your Testosterone levels where they "should" be naturally. An important question to answer before determining where your cruising TRT dose should be is what are your Testosterone levels on your current TRT dose? If your Testosterone levels are already around 1000 then there's no need to bump up the dose unless you're going to blast for a bit, however while not impossible it's unlikely your levels are that high on 100mg.

Whatever the case, get tested and know for sure before deciding if you haven't already.

Once you know where you stand, plan out a 2-3 month blast. I would start at 3-400mg weekly like you said. Make sure you have an AI on hand if you don't already. I know some people around here seem to be immune to sides at under a gram per week but that's not the case for all of us. Better safe than sorry.

Plan to get tested again 6 weeks in. See where your levels are at. Pay attention to Estradiol and see if you need or need to adjust your AI. Check liver and lipids just in case.

After your 2-3 month blast, plan to cruise for at least the same amount of time you blasted. Address and fix any issues that showed up on your last blood test, get tested to verify.

Use your notes to adjust/increase or decrease dosages to plan for the next blast, and repeat.

That's the safe and sane way to go about it IMO anyway.

Agree with post only start with 200mg/ml . Start there if you say it has gone great for you at 100mg

Im not sure if i'll ever add anything in.. I may just stick with Test only cycles. ( I'm too nervous getting stuff online and if the stuff is legit, I'm new to all this )
Basically I'm taking a lot less test. than given which lets me stock pile.

900-1200 is excellent for 100mg per week. I would personally keep it there for my TRT cruises, then if you get a good stockpile and decide you want to blast for a 2-3 months you would likely get great results on just 300mg per week of Test. Particularly if your diet is in order.

There are some very legit suppliers here. If you stick around and keep reading you'll get a little more comfortable with the protocols, even with a relatively small Test only blast. You'll also get a feel for what suppliers quality are based on bloodwork submitted by members.

900-1200 TRT is fantastic. I recommend you do a full hormone blood panel. You can get a script on the net and go to a clinic listed with the site (they are literally everywhere). The problem with a single number test is it doesn't show specifics, like free test, estrogen levels, etc.

I'm on TRT and ring in at 450. Personally, if I was at 900, the most I would up it to is 150 per week. 1200 is at the high end of the scale anyway.

As far as blasting goes, that's great if you have an actual goal in mind. There are tons of compounds you can cycle with to get you where you want to be.
