How long between cycles

[marklewis68]

I am 50 yrs old started HRT 200mg test cypionate per week. Felt great had been going to the gym for couple years and finally had bloodwork done showing low test. After 4 months I decided I wanted to cut fat and but not lose strength so I went up to 400 per week....8 weeks in I wen from 255 to 220 and haven't lost any strength. So now I'm hooked...lol....goal at end of 12th week is to be at 205 with no strength loss. At end of 12 weeks I will go back down to 200mg per week but plan on doing a second cycle to build more muscle this time doing 800mg per week. How long should I wait until starting second cycle....I was thinking 12 weeks???

Just my opinion but breaks between blasts are driven by recovery aspects. If you are on hrt, like I am, breaks are much less necessary because you don't plan on recovering. If BP n other stuff is ok.

I'd just get to it!

Listen to your body, when you feel ready, you probably are.
But ofcourse, check your bloodwork

Well the "safe" standard is time off + PCT

So if you were on for 12 weeks, then you wouldn't start PCT for 2 weeks, then PCT for 4 weeks so you're looking at a time off total of 18 weeks...
but of course that's too long lol.

Do I need the PCT if I'm still staying on HRT 200mg per week?

No, pct will not be needed. Simply go back down to your trt dose, make sure your bloods arent fucked, and then ramp it back up. the minimim is probably 6 weeks between blasts but thats with rotating different compounds in.
Are you on prescribed trt or self medicating? (Blasting and cruising)
