    Thoughts on shorter cycles?

    So I have my 8.5 week (60 day) cycle of Test prop g2g. The only thing is, the first full 8 weeks with a week or two for solidification that I can 100% dedicate to training is next March. Don't get me wrong, I'm always as close to 100% dedication as can be, but with the holidays and my trip planned, I don't want a single day on the juice to be wasted.

    What are your thoughts about shorter cycles on short esters, IE: 4 weeks on test prop instead of the standard 8? I assume that a single 8 week cycle would yield better results than 2, 4 week cycles due to a sort of momentum for mass gain, but I could be wrong.

    I'm on TRT, so HPTA recovery isn't really a factor IMO.

    I've read Marcus's articles on priming and burst cycling, but am interested in others' opinions and experiences as well.

    I went through a 2 year phase of doing allot of short cycles and i thought they worked great.....only problem for me was they aren't as cost effective running short esters and pct more often

    Test prop cycles provide the greatest gains between weeks 3 - 8. With that being said, I would think a 4 week wouldn't be very efficient because you only really get 2 weeks of solid gains
