    Why is prop limited to 10wks?

    Prop is always run for 8-10 wks. I've tried to find the answer to this but why can't someone go longer. Like a 16wk prop cycle for example. Is it just too harsh, or gains stall or what? I've never understood why cycles are limited to certain lengths?

    Since its fast acting typically you don't have to go that long. Also eod injections get to be alot for some. Not saying you can't run it like that
    If people can't tell your on steroids then your doing them wrong

    Cpl things. The longer your run a compound the harder it is to recover in most cases. More drastic PCT measures might be required to bounce back from a long cycle.
    Also there is a gains/sides ratio. After time unless adjustments are made mid cycle, the gains will start to diminish and the risk of sides increases.

    That's the great thing about short esters. Fast in and fast out. And i couldn't pin ED or EOD for that period of time.

    longest I have done prop is 10 weeks and I had to force myself to do it the last week or 2.

    I dont envy the guys that choose ED....

    Testosterone Cyp/Enanthate would be a better option because of cost and the trouble of EOD injections. Personally I like short cycles(6-8) but I prefer frontloading long esters and using them for the first weeks then transpose to short esters.

    Test P for that amount of time would be a lot more expensive Use your funds on food/protein instead.

    Price:
    Lets say you do 500mg Test for 10 weeks
    That would be 5 vials of Test P(100mg/ml). Roughly /vial=
    Test C/E(250mg) you need 2 Vials. Roughly /vial=
    This may be borderline price discussion......

    I agree with the front loading long ester cycles and now will also be utilizing back loading it as well.

    Awesome! I have some that are partly eaten. They still taste great though if you eat from the parts that hasn't been chewed on.
