Thread: Experiences with test only cycles, worth shutting down natural test for?

I want to get everyones opinions on doing a test-e only cycle. Is it worth shuttin down your test for? Are the results worthy?

I guess i just don't see myself being able to constantly inject multiple compounds and consume multiple orals on a weekly basis.

What’s your age?

Body fat?

Goals?

What’s your natural test level at the moment?

Said the same thing, did first few cycles with Test only, made good gains (didnt keep due to crappy PCT/diet/overall lack of knowledge of anabolic compounds).

Is it worth it? Thats ultimately up to you, you CAN make progress if you put in the time to do your research, train and eat right.

Said the same thing but now i've tried a little more than just the Test and really enjoying it.

Here's my take on the matter and what helped me make my decision.
The simple answer to me is no. I never saw the point in putting yourself through the rollercoaster ride of cycling and pct. Unless of course you're a young competitor which not many of us are.
I didn't decide to do my first cycle until I verified with bloodwork that my natural test levels were declining and I was ready to commit to a lifetime of TRT.
I did my first cycle of Test-E 500mg/wk 6 years ago. It was awesome. For shits and giggles I attempted a PCT and just as I suspected it was nothing short of a shit show. It's doable, but I don't think it's worth it. Blast and cruise is the only manageable approach in my opinion, but that comes with the inevitability of irreversible natural test production and TRT for life. Not a decision to take lightly.
I would never suggest a steroid cycle to anyone unless they are willing and ready for the lifetime commitment.
Just my 2¢.

Amen to that brother that's why I waited until my early 50's to blast and cruise plus if I can do it 20 or so more yrs I'm good nothing like being in your 50's and having guys half my age say damn man I hope I'm still getting it done when I'm your age feels really good to hear. Glad I waited it's odd to see people in their 50-60's with that's keeping up with people half they're ages.

If this is your first cycle ever I highly recommend a test cycle. See how you react to probably the best steroid out there. Just make sure you have a dailed diet and good workout plan and also have a good pct to help keep the gains. I’ll never forget my first test-c 500mg/week cycle. It was my favorite ever.

The question makes no sense to me. Are you a lifter? Do you plan to keep lifting? Have you ever done aas?

Your first cycle should only be test. That’s it. 500mg/wk of cyp or enth. Run it 12-16 weeks, then pct. Evaluate then if it’s worth it

Test is best

Definitely.
