    Test E w/ Deca or Dbol?

    I am 26yrs old 225lbs 6'2" with 8%bf and this will be my fourth cycle. I have previously ran three test e cycles at 600mg a week for 12 weeks with nolvadex for pct. Side effects being only bacne.

    I am looking to add more mass with my third cycle; preferably a leaner mass. I have been debating between deca and dbol. Would like to hear from experienced people.


    My first choice
    500mg test e wk 1-12
    200mg deca wk 1-10
    40 40 20 20 nolvadex wk 14-18

    My second choice would be
    500mg test e wk 1-12
    25mg of DBol wk 1-6
    40 40 20 20 nolvadex wk 14-18

    Thanks for your time.
    Experienced help only.

    40mg-60mg Dbol would be my preference. Deca takes too long to kick and at that dose it isn't really worth it, even if frontloading.

    If you are looking for leaner gains why not go with test E & primo? I realize primo wasn't one of the compounds you mentioned but the gains with dbol or deca wouldn't be as dry as those with primo.

    Is the goal to kickstart the cycle or be easier on your liver? I am assuming kickstart the cycle
    Sworder- would either of those goals change your recommendation?

    Just personal preference, I like keeping cycles shorter so I can do more. The dbol/Test E @ 12 weeks should elicit about the same gains as Deca/Test @ 14 weeks. Also, deca can be a little harsher on the recovery.

    Many roads lead to Rome! Jimmy's suggestion was great.

    Remember hCG @ 250iu x2 week too!

    Thanks for the recommendation sworder. How much bloating or water retention can I expect? I will have a clean diet while cycling and rumor has it most your gains kick started with Dbol disappear after usage. Any truth to that?

    Thanks again

    Hold on. Sworder, you're saying that the test/dbol will be just as good as the test/deca?

    And what do you mean by "keeping your cycles shorter so i can do more"?

    Dianabol bloats you a lot and the bloat disappears. But the muscle you gained stays. Muscle gains with bloat or muscle gains without bloat doesn't matter to me. Some people are very picky I am not. I am a letro fiend though that helps a lot with the bloat.

    @Pete
    Yes, look at the ester he is using, had it been NPP then I would have said go with NPP instead of deca. Deca for 12 weeks @ 400mg or 6 weeks 60 mg Dianabol. I would prefer the dianabol, deca doesn't give that good gains IMO! Especially under 500mg/week without a frontload. I like dianabol more, like I said though. Many roads lead to Rome. If you prefer the deca state so!

    Shorter cycles so you can do more/year.

    How does this stack look? Would there be noticeable different gains by stacking all 3 vs 2. Is the risk of bad effects that much greater by doing this?

    500mg test e wk 1-12
    400mg deca wk 1-10
    25mg dbol wk 1-6
    40 40 20 20 nolvadex wk 14-18
    .5adex eod

    Thanks for the responses

    Jimmy's PCT looks stronger! You can do Nolva 40mg first 2 weeks too doesn't hurt..

    Yes, that looks better. I would up the Dianabol though, 40mg. Maybe a lot of gear though for you maybe drop the dbol to 5 weeks that's about when the Test/Deca(<- hopefully) kicks. What did you run last time?

    I see what you're getting at and that's fine. Personal preference.

    I rarely call someone on something, but i have to say that your deca has been bunk, my friend. There's no way on earth your d-bol held to a good deca cycle!

    D-Bols back pumps and half life makes it undesirable. I like it, but i prefer something easier and more productive.

    What is a good deca cycle in your opinion? Mgs and duration.

    4 hour hl is a pain, BUT very nice to get you pumped pre-workout along with a stimulant. Provides a nice peak IMO! To get full benefit of dbol you have to take one before bed and also one midnight, i take a midnight shake so it doesn't matter I am up anyway.

    I gotta say...only tryed dbol once at 50mg for 4 weeks and had no back pumps at all and did not experience any "pre-workout pumps" that is when I took the whole 50.

    There's your answer, deca would be far better than the dbol imho .

    Curious on what you decided on? Because this was one of the thoughts on my mind for my next cycle!
