(again , your not running it as your stand alone cycle, its part of a much bigger picture so you don't need that 12+ weeks). same with EQ or other long esters. works just fine for short blasts for phase cycling or compound rotation, but not quite so well as a stand alone.
example - running EQ at say 400mg for 6 weeks and thats your entire cycle (with some test in there) is not going to yield a ton of gains, your much better running it for like 16 weeks at 400. BUT , if your phase cycling. you can take that EQ that you would have ran for 16 weeks (which is a total of 6,400 mgs) and run that total amount, 6,400 mg, and just run it all during a 6 week burst. so like 1100mg per week for 6 weeks as part of a compound rotation stacked with other compounds during a certain 'phase' of your cycle..
now that will yield some pretty good gains (depending on how your stack and rotate your compounds).
make sense ?
so
scenario 1 - EQ at 400mg a week for 6 weeks -- thats not really ideal
scenario 2 - EQ at 400mg a week for 16 weeks (3 bottles of EQ) -- much more ideal
scenario 3 - EQ at 1100mg a week in just 6 weeks (3 bottles of EQ) -- advanced and very ideal especially when stacked properly during the right phase of a phase cycle.
in scenario 2 and 3 your using the exact same amount of EQ .. your body is going to utilize it all. but in scenario 3 you use it all and you still have more compounds to run and a lot more time left in your cycle.
same thing can be done with deca
