2 cycles in one year

[Hermogenes]

I am determined to do 2 cycles this year, both test prop based (100 mg EOD)

42 yo
lifting for more than 10
looking to look muscular and cut

My questions are

1 - what should be the length of each cycle 8 or 12 weeks?

2 - how do I know that I have recovered already for the next cycle? I have heard a lot about time on = time off

8 weeks.
Blood Work tells you if you've recovered. But, you should pull it pre-cycle as well to establish baselines to return to.
Read Austinites Educational Articles Sticky Thread at the top of this forum.
Time on + pct = time off.
Good example of BW is in the Finding A Doc sticky in the HRT Forum. Pare it down if need be.
HCG and AI on cycle and be sure to have all pct in hand.
