i was reading the about esters in the educational forum and had a question.

what is the pros and cons of using a short acting ester and long acting ester?

well....theoretically.....nothing. test is test is test. Some people might think that test prop helps reduce water retention.

also is a short ester not a faster acting one. therefore fast gains which people like for short cycles??

With a longer acting ester, frequency of injections is less. This may be better for people uncomfortable or unable to do frequent injections. Someone using large amounts of prop and tren in a cycle may find it difficult to inject 3 or 4 ml everyday, even utilizing every available muscle to inject.

The shorter acting tests are good for those who may wish to have greater manipulation of their cycles. With prop, if unnaceptable side effects begin to happen, the amount of hormone can be reduced significantly in the body within 2 days, or stopped completely. Prop can also be used at the end of a cycle to keep test levels high while waiting for a longer acting steroid like deca to clear the system just in time for PCT.
