Just looking to get some discussion going here.
Dante Trudel is very well respected across all sectors of enhanced bodybuilding, and rightfully so. If anything over time his credibility has only increased. People still train in Doggcrapp approved methods and his supplementation advice is superb.
However what gets discussed and implemented a lot less these days is shorter duration cycles, in particular 4 weeks blast followed by 2-3 weeks cruise which he promoted in his original Cycle For Pennies:
"The cheapest and best stack I can think of anyone doing to put on major size is a gram or two of test with arimidex to keep water off with fina 75 to 150mg every other day for 4 weeks --then 2 to 3 weeks of cruising (test at 300-400mg and clomid at 5 (day one), 4(day two), 3(day three),then 2 every day for 2 weeks)--and then back on everything full again (maybe equipoise used instead of fina this time)for 4 weeks (then 2 to 3 weeks cruising again etc etc)"
There were some threads from way back when on this forum, as far back as 2006 which look at shorter cycles but very little in the last 2 decades: https://www.professionalmuscle.com/forums/index.php?threads/short-cycles.21250/
Now admittedly I'm a little out of touch, but I don't see anyone discussing this anymore. Now whether people do cycle like this and don't talk about it, what changed? Are people still using short cycles or do people prefer longer ones? Obviously the human body hasn't changed much in 20 years and Dante was clearly putting a lot of muscle on people back in the day with approach. What is the current consensus. Thanks.
