2nd cycle EQ vs Deca

[getpumped24]

just starting PCT after 10 wk testex cycle at 500mgs. planning 2nd cycle for around Dec. will be running testex again at 500mgs wk. still want to keep bulking, so i'm leaning toward deca, but the sides are less w/ EQ. my joints are killing me during cycle, will EQ help like deca will? currently thinking 500mg testex wk for 15 wks ., 400mgs deca wk for 12 wks, 30mgs ed d bol 1st 4 wks, .5mg l-dex throughout. clomid & nolva ,tribulus PCT. any reason to go with EQ over deca? could i run l-dex w nolva instead of clomid? mixed reviews on whether they cancel each other out.

If your still bulking and have some joint pain i would defo go with deca for the next cycle along side of testex

Yep....deca is a good option for joint pain.






LPR ....dermatology.

i like deca too...eq is weak (for me)

[lucabratzi]

are u plannin on takin the nolva and ldex together during cycle...if so i would choose one...i run both durin pct though....

they both are supposed to build collagen about the same,EQ actually a little better here, but most guys "feel" the deca helps more because deca's progestin-like actions which regulate inflamatory prostaglandins. Inflammaton and pain are both interlinked through the same prostaglandin pathways. So deca may make the cycle more comfortable, but the safety factor is pretty much the same with both.
As far as sides i feel safer with the eq. Deca gives some ppl gyno. Others however seem to think eq makes them thin up top though. more rare than the deca gyno though, so i go with eq. but thats me.
anabolic-wise, eq is supposed to be stronger on paper than deca. General concensus seems to favor deca though for this.

The article where you read that was invalid. It is not true. EQ dries you out along with your joints. I agree about the progesterone water retention in the joints you speak of with deca.

true deca is far superior to EQ as far as joint therapy goes

in all honesty Deca >>> than EQ in all area's if u wanna cut then there are far more optimal compounds u can use or evne use NPP to remain dryer while still getting hte outrageous anabolic properties of deca and the same null sides

[cfiler]

I'd go for deca. It's definately far superior in the joint lubrication. Aswell I prefer it's halflife of the ester more than that of EQ.

[getpumped24]

i agree with everyone, just keeping my options open. thanks guys

2 totally different drugs, even thiough most people think there interchageable.

I think it is completely goal dependent. Deca will give you more sheer size and strength, but some of that size is water. Eq on the other hand is a little weaker but you will not hold near the amount of water as you would with deca. I am on eq right now and I think its great for what my goals are. I am 8 weeks in and am up about 14lbs. I have 6 more weeks left and I think the real eq gains are just starting to kick in. Eq puts muscle on really slowly...so you need patience, but the final product is worth the wait in my opinion.
