1. I think daily dosing may be optimal even for larger cycles, forget mimicking pulsatile natty release, that really isn't the point, just a possible side benefit when doing TRT doses. Daily seems to lead to high levels of free hormone.
I have never seen any evidence that daily dosing increases levels of free testosterone nor any other analogue or anabolic. I can't even think of a reason why this would rven be remotely true. The "may be" or "seems to" is fine but we'd have to look at esterase enzymatic activity over a 24hr period, aromarase levels and replenishment time over a 24hr period, 5alpha reductase levels, and a large variety of other individual factors.
2. Health is HUGE for maximizing size and growth! Perhaps the biggest factor! This is what allows you to keep pushing over the long term and what lets you use higher doses, recover, utilize food, etc. The healthier you are, the bigger you will get in the long run, EVEN IF YOUR GOAL IS PURE SIZE. The more you take the bigger you will get IF you can remain healthy. The second your health falters, all your gains are limited.
Obviously nobody is going to be slinging big steel from a hospital bed. But absent individual factors like health, general well-being, financial constraints, etc (as I said before) and all things being equal, more juice = more gains along a steep dose-respondent curve. It is an immutable fact. Why anyone would even dispute it is beyond me.
3. You can do even larger precontest cycles with 30g slin pins (even without backloading) to minimize scar tissue. You will get less scar tissue from 30g daily dosing than 25g anything for sure.
There is absolutely no evidence of this. Scar tissue (size and appearance) varies by individual. 90 x 31g slin pins vs 21 x 25g pins = less scar tissue for sure? Good luck backing that up. After pushing a slin pin through a stopper then going to the muscle with it vs a fresh 25g out of the wrapper? I'd say it's probably close to a wash even on a 1 to 1 basis, let alone a 7 to 1 basis.
4. Daily dosing was common among pros in the 90s, lots of them talked about it, Dillet, Levrone, Milos (just to name a few) all talked about daily dosing.
True. We're talking 30+ml's of oil a week. I'm certain they did. But not because of any additional pharmacological performance or potency. I'm also reasonably certain they didn't use slin pins. And I'm absolutely certain they weren't extremely concerned about scar tissue (even though it was actually visible on some of them).
5. In reference to testosterone aromatization above, sure activity level of non-testicular aromatase varies in individuals, but that doesn't change the fact that only a TINY fraction of total testosterone is ever aromatized to E2, even in hyper-aromatizing individuals.
Absolutely, only the very tiniest of amounts (< 2% free testosterone).

It's difficult in these communities to sift through information and distill it all down to truth versus word of mouth, common practice, bro-science, opinion or theory because all to often the information is conflated with personal preferences, "feels", philosophy, and even message board politics at times.
If you find me contradicting you, it's not personal or performative. It's functional. You might find it hard to believe, but I love to be proven wrong. The reason being, is because at that moment I come just a little bit closer to the truth.
My philosophy is to best adhere to the scientifically documented evidence of the pharmacokinetics of the AAS, peptide, et al itself combined with the pharmacodynamics of a deep intramuscular inj, a subcutaneous inj, a tablet, a gel, etc as relates to human physiology and biochemistry.
It's no easy task. And since much of it is undocumented, not published, not peer-reviewed, we're left throwing shit up against a wall and seeing what sticks.

But I understand how it can happen. I'm sure we could exchange some crazy stories.
