Question about running a high dose of test

**RendellUnit** · 06-01-2009, 02:15 PM

25 years old
6ft
205lbs
11%bf
almost 4 years training at the gym
Did 5 cycles to date

If someone were to run a gram of test per week say for 10 weeks would it be better to split it up 500mg twice a week or inject the gram of test once per week.

I was just wondering what the bennifits were if there were any when u split it up, or do it in one shot?

If you're asking this type of question you shouldn't even be considering running 1g of test a week.. But the answer is split the doses up to keep blood levels stable

twice a wk

**bjpennnn** · 06-01-2009, 02:17 PM

5 cycles at 6 feet at 205 hmmm. diet? a gram of test is a lot, what intrested you in this amount? you would want to break up the dose to keep your levels more even so that you have less sides.

**amcon** · 06-01-2009, 02:18 PM

first read up on esters and half life of the drug you are looking to use... next what is your goal ... gram of test a week is high, but not for ever one...

**amcon** · 06-01-2009, 02:19 PM

test what? e c p??

**crazyjoe2344** · 06-01-2009, 02:19 PM

split it up and why 1000mg way to much post some of your last cycles...what ester test long short? And you always wanna keep your levels balanced so two shots for enan or cyp would be ideal a whole gram is a bit much for only being on your 5th cycle ive done more than that and still have yet to go over 500mg per week and am mid 20's 215 and 9% bf withabout 6 solid years training 10 reg years training. just my opinion bro

Thanks for the advice people, It was just something I have been considering and i just wanted to get some input on a gram of test a week.

I did 800mg of test for 10 weeks my last cycle, every week consisted of:

300mg of cyp
300mg of enanthate
200mg of decanoate

It was 2 bottles of T400 and I did 1cc shot twice a week

weeks 1-4 I ran amiredex .5mg
weeks 4 - 10 20mg nolva
weeks 8 -12 50mg proviron

The only side I got was a few pimples, my bp was slightly elevated but nothing major and I was on a clean bulking diet, gained 18lbs, kept 13lbs after my cycle was over.

So I was just going to bumb is up to a gram of test this time, but Im no expert and im still learning, there is so many threads, so much information.

Thanks for the advice

keep reading this site is loaded with tons of info

Whenever I have free time this where I usually spend it

Rendell , what were your other cycles and doses?

Seriously, I have been cycling for about 10 years now and have NEVER needed to go over 600 mgs of test.

the amount of compounds don't always determine your gains. It seems like your DIET is way off as you should be WELL over 200 lbs after all those cycles

I am 5'11 and bulked to 275 this cycle with only about 600 mgs of test
It is ALL in the diet and training steroids only make up about 5 % of the equation here

you may want to get your diet looked over in the diet section before considering this cycle or any other

Why's that? He is simply inquiring about people's experience that have run 1gm of test. Nothing wrong with that. In fact, it appears to me he is trying to make an informed decision.

To the OP, give us some more color on your cycling history (dosages, compounds, duration, etc.).

Everybody responds different to different dosages. For example, 350mgs of Tren A/wk (ed injects) makes me crazy while others have no problem at 700mgs/wk and sleep like a baby. Some may think 1gm of test is overkill while others get marginal results with anything less than 1gm. Anything over 450mgs of Deca gives me progesterone related gyno while others have no sides at 600mgs and higher.

Cycling history is a factor but I also know people of plenty that have cycled as long as you have and still see no need to go over 500-600mgs/wk. It appears your body responds well to test. That's great but it doesn't apply to everyone. I know others that don't respond well at all to test or at least that is what they claim. I do however agree with everything else you said.

We know you are saying it's 5% to get your message across, but be honest... it's more like 4.3618%. If your diet and training is not PERFECTED, lets face it, gear is as good as jerkin' off.

I agree with you for the most part, the problem I have and am trying to stress is that MOST people think MORE is better and use more to make up for poor diets or other deficiencies in their programs.

and IF you look at this guys stats, its obvious that there is something NOT right , probably with diet, so it would sound like he is thinking MORE test will make up for lack of proper diet... I may be wrong, but that is what I am getting from the info we got from him so far

**stpete** · 06-01-2009, 05:45 PM

Too much. Get that diet in check.

Oftentimes less is more, at least that's the case for me. I was making more of a generalized statement, not a personal one. I prefer low dosed cycles and I actually think my gains are better on lower doses. Less sides, better sleep (this is very important and often overlooked) and more quality gains. Anyone can mega-dose, gain 30 pounds of water weight, and then end up giving most of it back and then some post-cycle. Simple fact, the more you use the harder it is to recovery AND the longer it takes.

**Navy-boi-kai** · 06-01-2009, 06:30 PM

I agree with tmos. You should really get you diet looked at I have done on 2 cycles same hieght as you and im rite at 200 with 12% bodyfat. I would suggest you get you diet a lil more clean. Ansk youself this question. Can you honostly say you know how many calories your taking in? Exactly whats you pretien and carb rations are to you fat ratios. Not a made up or a guess number. Do you know all that? if not you not dieting properly.

**Navy-boi-kai** · 06-01-2009, 09:26 PM

try running just 500-600 mgs a weeks with a clean strict diet i bet you will make better more quality gains.

anyone who has any knowledge on test cycles knows you don't shoot anytype once per week, and since the guy has ran 5 cycles you think he would know about different types of test and the pin rate on them

Why not? I've done cycles where I would shoot Sust, Cyp or Test E 1x/wk and the results were just fine but then again I don't typically go over 750mgs/wk. I didn't notice any difference whatsoever from pinning Test E, Sust or Cyp once a week to 2-3x/wk. I know, the thought process is to keep a stable blood concentration level, blah, blah, blah...but in reality it doesn't make a dogshit bit of difference either way with long acting esters. You 'may' notice less acne but that's about it. The OP didn't specify which form of test he was planning to use so we'll assume for sake of argument that he was talking about Cyp, Test E or Sust. Any of those compounds can be shot 1x/wk with just fine results.

**sigman roid** · 06-02-2009, 01:11 AM

i wouldnt shoot 1g a week seems to much to me as said allready more is not always better and imo i dont think the results would be much better than doing half a gram a week
