    all year round cycling

    I alwyas read threads about gains coming to a halt after a certain point of a cycle, I know this does happen there is no denying it but my thought is that they will not slow as much as someone who is natural all year round will they???? the subject w/ the gear will probably be able to gain all year as well, not have anymore growth spurts i realize this but still be able to grow none the less. how do pros stay on most of the year and continue to grow??? switching compounds? cruising? I know it is a bad idea to do this, if you dont earn your living by your physique then why do it at all but for shits and giggles here how do pros continue to gain?

    on juice all year around wont let u gain & gain. if that was the case u would be able to gains 20lbs of muscle every year. pro's staying on all year run heavy cycles but then for a long period of time administrate a low dosage of test and/or a milder compound to cruise thru their next cycle. its their job, like u stated above, but it is a stressful & miserable way of living day to day w/ diet, eating, & training, if u ask me, its not fun.. but its the nature...

    i dont know how or if they cotinue to grow, cause at one point ur body will come to a stop regardless, but doing what they do (year round) makes them look steadily progressive in their gains... JMO

    Ive been on for about....18 months now and I have continued to make progress...you wont see the scale keep increasing but what you will get is muscle quality..im 292..im shooting for 300 but i dont want to be a fat and sloppy 300..like mentioned earlier....whats done is in my case anyway I run high doses for 16-24 weeks and then cruise on test 500mg/week for a month or two then kick it back up..ive been cruising now for about 7 weeks and am getting ready to go balls to the wall for another 4 months or so.it has worked well for me..but just know ive been doing this for over 18yrs,i know my body and what it can and cant handle...im in no way suggesting this is the best idea for everyone but again its what i found that works for me.

    Staying on gear all year round isnt idea, the top pro's have to cycle high dose and low dose year round so they can compete at that level, if your prepered to use it for that lenght of time, the sides are very harsh especailly when you eventually come off, recovery is so hard ive seen many BB struggling with this sides, HRT comes alot sooner than you would want to and you will have to be prepered jab yourself for the rest of your life.

    They dont gain all year round its impossible growth comes in short burst's, if it was true they would all be 500lbs+ and still gaining, all they do is increase the dosages with each following cycle which in turn increase's the side effects, which alot dont understand until they stop competeing and come off and then thats when they realise what is been doing, recovery and maintenace are so hard but if your willing to pay the price!! play the game

    I wonder if it is better to stay on year-around if you are a person who does more than 2 cycles per year?

    through my research and experience I wonder if one could cycle, say for ten weeks, then cruise on a trt dose of test and hcg for a few months then cycle again.

    Research has shown that low or sub-opimal test levels in men can lead to; Alzhiemers(sp?), cancer, depression, osteopenia, heart disease etc. This has been proven through Cenegenics Institute research. Also, our levels TEND to drop naturally every year after the age 25-30yrs old. So IMO, wouldnt it make more sense to avoid the hormonal health rollercoaster and stay on year-around???

    Keep in mind, this is a suggetion for those that cycle more than once a year, and are over 30yrs old.

    If you compete,or just a plain madman,then yes....otherwise,for the novice cycler it's foolish.

    I've been on for several years now.Like DD said,the gains are slow,but you just have to keep plugging and try new approaches to cycling.

    I agree with you on the novice issue, and although most on this board are novices, they still cycle more than once or twice a year, and many may be close to 30yrs of age as well. I am not trying to send the wrong message, I'm actually trying to present the power of hormones and there effects so people can consider this into their decisions.

    For example; What if a 28 yr old male begins cycling twice a year 10-15 weeks per cycle (average from what I see), therefore 'on' for more than half the year. Although not conclusive, from the studies I've read it takes anywhere from 3-8 months for the HPTA to recover from AAS or androgen replacment; wouldnt it be better for this individual to supp testosterone year around, since he may be naturally declining anyway (bloodwork is a MUST, of course), and he plans on cycling in the years to come??

    Hell Yeah bro....Semper Fi


    I stay on cause I hate pct, its the worst possable thing to do to your body...why come off,get your hormone levels back to normal and then do it all over again....dont make much sense...theres NO ducumented evidence that staying on indefinately is any worse...or better. for that matter then cycleing.
    and recovery shouldnt be an issue if you planned it out right.I said it before..im running this cycle for 5 yrs,ill be 40 and then im done completely with AAS........hopefully by then there will be an alterative

    Keep in mind, the latest research has shown HCg maintains intratesticular T levels even while on TRT. There have also been cases of men who were misdiagnosed with hypogonadism (low T) and put on TRT (HCg included); they successfully obtained high-normal natural T levels after discontinuing TRT. So in other words, if you 'plan' on cycling for a few years, and take proper precautions (blood work, check ups etc), it may be healthier to keep your levels from dropping to hypogonadic levels, which is inevitable after AAS, rather than just waiting to start juicing again. The trt 'bridge' approach may alleviate these issues along with keeping our sanity (and libido), possibly without creating any permanent HPTA damage. Just some food for thought.

    I am def not promoting year-around cycles, I'm just curious myself on what you guys think, along with getting a decent discussion going for our veteran AAS users (a little break from 'can I take Deca by itself?LOL).

    imo, its fine if you are not planning on having kids. its not imposible to have kids while on and there is a chance that they will be normal but why risk it.

    testosterone is the male sex hormone. if u want to take it and have kids, thats your choice. im not going to take any chances. im not a doctor but it doesnt take a scientist to figure out that it might not be the best idea bro.

    i ran a 24 week cycle last year and did not see a lot of growth during the latter stages of the cycle,now during this cycle i fathered my 4th child,a beutiful little girl,touch wood she is perfectly fine and healthy!!there is no evidence whatsoever that roids cause any defects in babys!i am just puttin my point of veuw over!!
    imo for me bein on for any longer than the standard 12-16 weeks is not for me,anylonger and it is a waste,i am not saying that it is pointless for everybody,people respond to certain ways others do not!
    i am goin for marcuses 30 dayers after this year!
    last time i looked this was a discussion board and not a boxing ring!
    not tryin to offend anyone but lets be nice girls!!

    No....I never said anything of the sort.I was replying to the posters question in regards to staying on year round with cycles in between.So,without having to mention it,it would be quite obvious a low dose cruise would be used in off cycle periods.

    No,you know what puts a damper on this board is the fact it has been over run with NOVICE AAS users who think they know everything.I dont claim to know everything but what I do know I stand behind 100% WITH FACTUAL INFORMATION.

    GS..seeing how my opinions were not directed towards you,id expect the same curtousy
