So I've done my research and my question is if I blast and cruise for a year or so what are the chances of recovering after pct?

Honestly mate, blast and cruise is a longterm commitement, not just a one year thing. Lots of things to consider.
What do you want to obtain in a year that say 2 cycles couldnt? The more your on the lesser the chances of recovery. No one can say for sure as i know guys who can recover after 10 years of being on and some that cant recover after a 6 week 250mg of test EW cycle.
If you plan on blast and cruising then there really is no PCT as that defeats the purpose, ONLY reason i see guys going onto a PCT after b/c is to get there other half pregnant, ive browsed many forums and talk to many people and the only reason they come off is for that purpose, never hear of giving the body a rest or anything like that.
Honestly its a risky game but one only you can make. Can you deal with regular needle for the next 60 years, regular BW, regular prostate checks if your using things like masteron that flare up your prostate. regular blood letting. etc etc. All things to take into consideration mate.
Good luck
If your national caliber or have a pro career in the making then maybe it's worth it. Other than that it's simply ego and not worth it. You can make progress during normal down times.
Yea well I have 2 kids already the not getting anyone pregnant again sounds pretty good haha.
At 24 < ouch
I am damn near a decade on you & I have decided to stay on year round
It's not pretty, sides, more sides & regular BW.
You cool with self phlebotomy? Pinning all year is nothing compared to having to give blood year round
What do you want out of it? Are you having any other issues already? What are your regular baseline numbers?
It's no fun that's for sure, but it does more good for me so far than bad.
Pinning and giving blood is no biggie I give double red every time I can anyway. I want to possibly compete at some point. I haven't even had bloodwork done since my first cycle and after pct my t levels were pretty low don't know exact numbers off the top of my head.Quote:

I once saw an interview with Lee Priest and he said he liked training off cycle more, and that he never thought that way (depressed) when he was off cycle because he loved training anyway. If you love training, i don't think it should be a problem.
I think it's a hormone thing not a mindsetQuote:

In my case - I started with shit, my test was low, I felt like crap since my mid 20's & had the sex drive of 60 year old - along with not making gains worth a crap
But, it's not too cool staying on forever - I do it because I am way better off on then off
Only you can answer the question of staying on something forever - But, it's not all that fun
Weigh out the pros & cons - Give it some time. . . . But, when you stay on for a extended period of time like a year. It's not likely that you will ever come back off & just be okay.
I blast and cruise and brother it sucksQuote:

I'm on TRT and I blast and cruise and never need PCT. That said, when I drop back down to my TRT dosage I feel the same as when I did PCT. I lack motivation and get upset easily. It only last 2-4 weeks and then I feel great. Would def. be nice though to be able to take a break from jabbing needles into my body all the frigen time.
