Hello I have done about 4 real cycles in my life. Started when I was 23. I used a lot of test in my earlier cycles and loved it but I was wondering why every body is so down on the deca d-bal cycle. Its worked great for me. I would like to have some test but I dont. Dan Dushane had nothing but good things to say about deca d-bal. Is test just better for your first few cycles untill you know what your doing or what?
