Once or twice a week injection on long ester gear???

[MMAFIGHTER]

If im taking 500mg test and 800mg of EQ a week should i take 250mg test and 400mg of EQ on tuesday and then take the other 250mg of test and 400mg of EQ on thursday or friday to equil the 500mg of test and 800mg of EQ that im looking for a week, and i will see less sides that way? Either way to me doesnt matter but if one way is going to keep my blood levels more stable then i would rather do it that way!

Thanks guys for any help.

EQ 1x wk
sust 2x wk
test cyp-ent-e5d

youre not saying what kind of test...

Test enan, i know your half life times you posted and thats all good and all but i was curious about blood levels staying steady with splitting up the doses?

the more you split up your doses, the more stable they'll be.

you can do M and Tr

M, W, F is even better.... with the esters your using (assuming its Te or Tcyp) then you'd be fine with M/Tr. anything is better than one day/wk

I only shoot my Enenthate or Cyp once per week. I realize that my blood levels won't be as steady as q5d but does anyone think that matters that much? My 6th day trough levels are still going to be hugely supraphysiologic. I guess if you are sensitive to test fluctuations for acne or something then split them up on a shorter interval, but I can't imagine my total test dropping from 4000 to 3500 is going to make much difference.

Pharm questions...

After about 4-5 half-lives, you reach a steady state where your excretion rate matches your input rate.

Prior to this you will get some fluctuation, but with 8 day half-lives on long-acting test, this isn't really an issue.

Loading a bigger dose in the early stages gets your steady-state levels higher, but does not shorten the 4-5 half-lives necessary to reach the steady state.

Personally I seem to be getting better results & less sides (in particular MUCH less water retention) from going from injecting enanth twice weekly to 4 times (using the same dose).

What Dad says is right, especially if you front load and build up then one half-life will make no difference with items of longer half-lives.
Some people will want to do it more often just because it makes them feel better mentally, but me the less I would have to stick myself the better.
Remember its not just the half-life of the analyte but also the metabolic rate of decay, i.e. you body rids itself of different substances at different rates.
