do you guys prefer running prop for 8 weeks or 10 weeks?

I am doing test prop only 75mg every day. Right now I am finishing up week 5 and am wondering whether I should run this cycle for 8 weeks, 10 weeks, or 12 weeks. My original plan was 10 weeks, but I am thinking maybe I should go 8 weeks so that I won't need as much time off. I think I might go based on whether I am still making gains or not.

What do you guys prefer from your personal experiences?

8 weeks for me but i do this

weeks 1-8 200mgs test prop eod

weeks 1-7 150mgs mastron eod

weeks 1-7 175mgs npp eod

but as you said base it on wheather your still gaining

short esters all the way buddy.

Here is what I think. Its completely individual. If you are still gaining nice then run it for 10 but be honest with yourself. After playing around with it I found it best to run short higher dose cycles and then take some time off and be back on sooner. You should really be trying to see how ur body resonds and go off that. Everyone will say 8wks cause its the protocol or whatever but truth is its just not that simple.

this was the general thought process I had in mind. I also looked ahead at dates and stuff and realized it would allow me to squeeze an extra cycle in before next summer. It's a long way off but it seems like I will be glad if I only run 8 week cycles. Most of my gains from this cycle so far happened the first 3 weeks to be honest
