Best time year to cycle?

[DB1982]

So basically I was wondering what time of year do you guys prefer to start and end a cycle and why.

I was going to start my cycle in January and end it in March. But due to shoulder issues it being postponed a little while.

I originally wanted to cycle ( Bulking up ) in the winter . So I'd be able to hide most of the dramatic change in my body with baggy winter clothes. So its not so obvious I was juicing.

What are your thoughts

Doesn't matter when you cycle. Mine started in November and will end in February. My next cycle will start at the end of May and end in August. After that my next cycle will start in January and end in march....I think you see where I'm going with this.

Ideally when you can focus completely on the goal uninterrupted by vacations and other commitments. Diet and workout need to be solid, well before starting.

This would be goal dependent. Also determined by long or short esters. I like to begin a short ester cutting cycle about March bringing me right into the summer season, then a longer cycle in the fall around October or so running through the winter months.

Yeah the goal was to bulk up in the winter drop the fat and maintain through summer.

Anytime you can afford it, and you haven't been "on" for at least the same amount of time you last cycle lasted + PCT.

And, of course, no interruptions as Fit suggested.

I just do it when I feel I am ready.
