Stronger after PCT on short cycle

**chaps** · 06-14-2014, 02:35 PM

Hey guys, was curious if anyone has ever done/experienced something like this and can explain why. About a month ago I finished a 4 week cycle, mainly for recovery (had a herniated disc and partial tear in my left bicep at the start of the year). The setup was like this:

500mg test p wk 1-2
800mg eq wk 1-2
500mg test e wk 1-4
400mg eq wk 14

nolva & clomid for pct, 3 weeks.

Anyways, whats surprising is around week 2 of my pct I started making great gains. I've now been off pct for over a week and still am noticing improvements in strength and size. Has anyone experienced anything like this?

so let me try & understand...
weeks 1-2 1000mg test. 500mg of prop and 500mg test E with 1200mg EQ
weeks 2-4 500mg test E with 400mg EQ
????
either way at 4 weeks you were probably just starting to see the effects in your system when you stopped.
Cant say I see the logic in this protocol but maybe others have different opinions

Yea that's what I'm saying, seems really odd. And @sicko, the test p and double eq dose is a preload, that isn't an uncommon way to jumpstart a cycle. Test E and EQ are long esters if you want effect faster you have to preload.

Yes I know.
That kind of was the basis of my comment. Being that they are both are long esters do you feel that you benefited by running them only 4 weeks? I get the frontloading with the prop but am curious what you were able to accomplish with long ester compounds in 4 weeks.
I have heard of cycles like these but have not heard of any real positive/solid outcome of a 4week cycle of this nature.
can you elaborate on your results?
