This is absurd. If you have never run it, how would you know what dose is most effective?!? This is just parroting what some guy told you. Everyone responds differently to every compound and you should start lower and work up. There is no need to run Eq above 500mgs for the first time. Also, after only 3 cycles, are you finding that 500mgs of test no longer works for you? So many of you guys think you have to up the doses every time and you do not. Remember to grow of the least amount of gear necessary is the safe way to do this.
