Winstrol as bridge?

This is my 3rd cycle (currently only on week 3)

I'm running:
Week 1-4 D-Bol 40mg ED
Week 1-12 test e 250mg every 3.5 days
Starting pct 2 weeks after last pin and doing mix of clomid/nolva

Although this is a bulking cycle, I wouldn't mind getting the puffy mass look slightly more dense at the end.

My question is should i add in winstrol (50mg ED) from week 8 or 10 all the way up to when pct starts? My thoughts are it might slightly harden my look up, but also act as a bridge during the 2 weeks completely off test e leading up to pct. has anyone had experience with this?

This was just a thought and wanted advice if this was a good, or pointless idea.

Thanks!

Winstrol will not do anything for you aside from some strength gains. Your body fat is far too high for Winstrol to be effective. Save it and use it while cutting when you're at or below 11%; that's when you'll have notable changes in your physique.

On a side note, steroids should never, ever be used as a "bridge" to PCT in my opinion. That period is your transition to recovery, especially when long esters are cycled.

I'll keep the cycle as is and not add in the winny then. Makes sense not to bridge when you put it that way. Thanks austinite, I've read tons of your stuff and its given me an incredible amount of great info.

Are you asking about bridging or just backloading?

Are you asking about bridging or just backloading?

Backloading, I was using the term bridge to describe the winny taking effect to bridge the test e leaving and pct starting to keep strength and gains. Once again I haven't had experience with this ever so I wanted opinions on how/if this method would work.

Backloading is fine bridging is not. lots of people finish with tbol var winny. But as austinite said winny won't have much effect

Yall must be getting some bunk ass winny and i like running an oral finisher right up to pct.

I like an oral at the end of a cycle when gains have stalled but winny at that bf % is a waste of time/gear.

It may not help him much aesthetically but should still help strength, help squeeze out a lil more lbm, as well as drop any water hes carrying so he knows more realistically where he is at weight wise. I have never been very high bf but I still don't buy into the saying that mast and winny are useless unless low bf. Especially winny I actually put on nice lbm gains with it.
