is it possible

Is it possible to or should I say advisable to come off one thing and get on another. If I came off test and wanted to continue growing, is there something I could replace it with that would allow this? Does everyone get on the wagon (go cold turkey) after a cycle? How do the people we see in magazines stay huge? Do they only allow photos when they are peaking on a cycle? With multiple shows and contests, how do pros pull this off?

can't just switch from one thing to another all compounds shut you down, and that is what you need a break from, you need to let your body start producing it's own test again.. most pro's are not cut 365days a year

Pro's run very demanding cycles and bridges and burst cycles and insulin and growth hormone . Its very difficult and taxing on the body even durring in thier "off season" while they're still asked to make appearances. Unless you have a chance at really making money in competitive bodybuilding, the standard protocol of PCT then equal time off is the best way to go.

Yea I figured it would be too good to be true to jump from one thing to another and keep growing. Thanks for the reality check though.

agreed,the ones that you see have demanding schedules that include photo shoots and guest appearences,so the truth is they are staying on something from 1 degree to another year around,no they will not be ripped at 3% BF for the year but they will remain hard and tight,as mentioned time off is very important for you,most will not be a pro regardless of how much compounds they take.
