Adding Test Prop - Mid Cycle

[jim6893]

Hey guys, im half way through my cycle of 500mg Test Enanthate, 300mg Deca per week, 10 weeks. Arimadex during & Clomid+Nolva for PCT.
I know I should use Test Prop to taper off but I was wondering if I could possibly start it earlier and maybe do it for second half-end?

Why do you think you should use prop to taper?

[Nakanoshima]

I'd like to know why too.

Have some patience. You'll only just start to see results now in your 5th week. If your diet is dialled in then you won't be disappointed.

What is your bf?

Interesting question. Where did you get this info to taper off?

[Lunk1]

Ending a cycle with prop isn't something that "should" be done, it's something that "can" be done normally because the user has a specific goal in mind relating to time. Why switch to a more fequent pinning protocal if it's not necessary?

If anything, change the duration of this cycle from 10 weeks to 12 weeks...

No, you don't need to introduce prop into this cycle. At 23 you're a little young anyway. I'm assuming you're going to run both for 10 weeks. If that's the case i would extend the test for 2 more weeks longer than the deca. PCT 14 days later. You have enough going on for a first cycle which should yield some good gains.

Remember that:

Time on + PCT = Time off at least till next cycle. No need to rush into another cycle after this one.

Good Luck

Agree with everything Pete said, and Lunk.

If you want to include Prop on cycle you can certainly use it in the last two wks of your cycle. In fact i recommend it, for the simple reason that you will transition from on cycle to PCT in only 3 days rather than 14 with the long estered Enth.

Recap:

The last two wks you will only be running Test only as you will have discontinued Deca as Pete suggested. You then introduce Prop at 150EOD to replace the Enth and give you 525mg/wk. When your cycle is complete you will only wait 3 days before you begin PCT.
