    Test & Tren compete for same receptor?

    Another newbie question here.
    I've seen some people cycling test at low TRT dose around 100-200mgs with tren at 400-600mgs. They say that test and tren compete for the same receptor so u wan the gains to come from tren and test should only be used to keep sexual functions. BUT I've also seen people with great results from high test and high tren cycles. So, is it really necessary to run test low with high tren or this whole receptor thing is just BS?

    No it is not necessary.

    Only reason some people run low test high tren is because it keeps sides away.

    You can run it 1:1, 2:1, or 1:2. Many people have different preferences and you need to see what ratio works best for the goals you want. I would recommend always starting with a modest 1:1 ratio.

    You have enough receptors to go around.....

    As far as receptor count, think of this:

    Androgen's, for the desired purpose we use them bind to the intercellular receptor (and maybe plasma membrane receptors, dunno). The androgen is a lipid so that it can diffuse into he cell wall (hence why it's dissolved in oil). Ask yourself how many receptors each cell will have, then ask yourself how many cells you have, and that's without even beginning to talk about binding affinity, how much cyp gets destroyed by the liver and other normal functions, how much of the androgen is made water soluble and removed before it gets a chance to bind, on and on.
