Substituting with other steroids during a cycle

**TheWarriorWithin** · 01-29-2011, 06:01 AM

Just curious to know can you/should you substitute one steroid for another during a cycle in particular similarly structured steroids . So for example could you sub deca for equipoise or test e for test c? and still see continual gains or would it just "reset" and ruin your whole cycle.

seems like that would not be a good thing ,did you run out of 1?

I'm not really sure what you're asking.

the substitution of one long estered test for another is hypothetically fine mid cycle, but depending on the length of your cycle, it doesn't really make much sense to substitute deca with EQ.

I'm asking because the dude I get deca off is off to another country and I managed to find some other juice temporarily. Problem is the dude only has equipoise and prop however I'm taking test cyp and deca. The cycle I'm doing atm is a good cycle but I decided I wanted to go a little longer. I was thinking well if test is test and deca is similarly structured to equipoise it shouldn't matter right?

No, you should have just planned better, and had everything you need for your cycle on hand before beginning.

What was your originally planned cycle, and where are you at now?

Why? You just said it was hypothetically possible?

I'm trying to help you, so: what was your originally planned cycle and where are you at now?

**TheWarriorWithin** · 01-29-2011, 07:34 AM

Test Cyp 500mg p/w
Deca 300mg p/w

injecting twice a week for 12 weeks would like to extend to 20 weeks. This is my 3rd cycle I am in the 6th week.

***D7M*** · 01-29-2011, 07:36 AM

And where in the cycle are you now?

**TheWarriorWithin** · 01-29-2011, 07:42 AM

6th week

***D7M*** · 01-29-2011, 07:47 AM

Your original plan sounds great, actually, and you have plenty of time to grow. I would honestly just leave it as is.

What's the desire to run it to 20 weeks?

Or, think about it this way, if you run the deca for 12 weeks, then you want to start EQ? Another long estered AAS for only 8 weeks?

If you did want to run a 20 weeker for whatever reason, you'd be better off using the same long estered steroids throughout.

ok. Maybe I'll just keep the equipoise n prop for another cycle. thanks.

**Bonaparte** · 01-29-2011, 08:40 PM

Agreed with DM7. Just keep it at 12 weeks. You only feel like extending it right now because it just kicked in recently so you feel amazing and never want to come down. By week 12 your gains will have largely dried up and dragging out the cycle will do much more harm than good.

Ok. Didn't know that. Yeh what you said is exactly what I'm feeling. I think this is how God must feel lol. Coz I walk into the gym and mentally nothing feels impossible and every time I go in I seem to be just stacking more and more plates on everything I use. Just amazing.
