I always wondered..

When bb'ers are on a cycle for a comp, when do they compete in relation to the cycle? I imagine they won't be off cycle when they jump on stage, so do they compete on the last day of cycle? Last week? after PCT?

I just always wanted to know that!

most pro's NEVER get off....they don't cycle, they 're constantly on gear

the only thing that changes is the compound....closer to competition they'll switch to compounds to get lean, hard, and dry.....and vica versa when bulking

ok, well for someone like me, who is not a pro, when would I jump on stage in relation to my cycle?

**takedownII** · 04-23-2009, 08:34 PM

if they test, you want to end with something that will be out of your system quickly and before the comp...something with a shorter ester/half-life....if they're not testing you won't have to worry about getting off

please correct me if i'm wrong anyone

so when wud b the peak point of my cycle? for example, 12 weeks test with weeks 9-14 winny. when shud I plan to step on stage? last day of the cycle?

My friend is on his last week of test when he is competing.

**takedownII** · 04-24-2009, 02:51 PM

yeah i would assume closer at the end of the cycle would be the best time to get on stage....at that point you have seen all of the gains you will from that full cycle

Actually if they test and you are on, you picked the wrong show. That would be called cheating. Good luck being proud of your accomplishment.

I was not speaking to you in specifically and was not suggesting this is something you personally do. But...if you enter a Natural Show juiced up why not just save the money you spent on gear and go buy a trophy? You will have earned it about the same either way.

oh ok bro my bad, i thought you were flaming me....i apologize

and i do agree with you....natural shows should be left to the natural competitors

**NewMuscle83** · 04-29-2009, 04:14 PM

Well, natural shows give polygraphs now and you can't have done anything in 7 years. I think they'll be ok.

My question wasn't in regards to a tested show. If I were to jump on stage, I was gonna plan to be on cycle. Hence why I asked what point I should schedule the competition.

***FireGuy*** · 04-29-2009, 07:25 PM

Sorry we got off track, there are a few subjects that get me going and that was one of them. Anyways, most competitors who choose to run AAS do so with a show scheduled towards the end of the cycle.
