4 week cycles

[Ben Stiller]

Drink a bottle of Bacardi 151 in a night, or spread it out over a week, which do you think is worse.

Nah, wrong analogy. Alcohol is poison either way so less is allways better. Plus nobody is saying use a weeks supply in one day. Drinking three drinks once a week is less damaging then having one drink every single day. You are a casual drinker if you do the first and a alcoholic if you do the second. Try again..

Still a decent topic. FWIW I have switched myself from running longer esters for 3-4 months at a time to now using shorter esters for 4-6 weeks at a time. It seems to be a better fit for me, my gains and my general health and bloodwork numbers

Basically another thing w/ 4 week courses is to just hit is HARD AND FAST!! This works really well cause your body doesn't know what hit it and when your off your body is still confused so your gains won't go bye bye.

This one post cracked me up...

Wrong. One drink (beer or wine) every single day is shown to be healthy.

His was a correct analogy - intaking a ton of any drug at one time is less healthy than taking a small amount spread over time. This holds true for alcohol, speed, aspirin, cocaine, Tylenol - you name it. Why are AAS different? There is a point of moderation, a balance. Some doctors agree that a very moderate dosage of deca/tren/EQ/Mast can be run quite safely for years - 100test/100deca for TRT, safe. Take 2 years worth of that Deca in a 10 week period and you will have a different situation. It's not rocket science.......

I believe that steroids are more harmful when used long term vs high amounts for short periods of time.
For example, I think TRT year round with 3 massive one month blasts is less harsh on the body than say staying on 750mg-1,000mg year round.

It seems that the longer lipids, liver enzymes, and other health markers are out of range, the worse it is for your long term health. I would rather have bad blood work a few times a year than moderately bad blood work all year.

Of course, but that is not really the issue. The question was if it was better to spread out smaller amounts or blast more for shorter. 750-1,000mg year round is NOT a small amount.

Reminds me of the Paul Borreson 30 day blasts....

Days 1-10: 1g Sustanon per day.
days 11-20: 800mg Deca per day, 600mg test prop per day, 400mg primo per day.
Days 21-30: 400mg test prop per day, 200mg Winstrol per day, 4 capsules of T3, dnp, metformin, and 30iu insulin after each meal.

Yes it does, I think he was off on some stuff, but some he was ahead of his time

I like the idea of short powerful blasts but i don't think the doses need to be quite that excessive

I just used that as a more extreme example.
I still said that steroids are more harmful when used long term vs high amounts for short periods of time (long term meaning long duration).
So in other words, I think it more harmful to do moderate dosed blasts spread out over a longer period than it is to do high doses for a short period.

I have heard about high dosed short cycles alot in the past. Although most of the time no real thought has ever gone into them. People using compounds such as Eq for 1 month blasts and coming off on pct whilst the eq is still active... never really got that. The guys I heard about doing them basically just took whatever they had with no real routine week from week.

I have planned to do short cycles (moderate doses) for awhile now. I never seem to do it though. Usually due to coming off for a few months then thinking I need to stay on longer to catch up. I will try them out next year using short esters 4 weeks on 4 weeks off. Probably about 2g total although short esters so maybe not as much. Although leading upto 100mg test p, primo a and npp would be interesting
