    Seems like a high dose of test every 5 days for hrt? Are you in the states?

    Yes! Been on 200 mg every 7 days for 7 months and then off for 2 months
    Just started 300 mg...and dropped it to every 5 days to get a more consistent level

    You are absolutely on a very high dose of T. Do you get bloodwork?

    As far as "cycling" that is not something you do on TRT. Typically, it is done lifelong especially at your age.

    I would really urge you to talk to your doctor and/or find a new one because coming off for 2 months, the doses listed, and your basic questions after 7 months tell me that you have not been properly informed about what is being done to you.

    300 mgs every 5 days is equivelant to about 430mgs a week, that is NOT a trt protocol. Unless you have some rare condition (and some here do)

    To answer your question.....yes, you need to cycle that amount and come back down to where your blood work says you are back in range. In other words if your blood work shows your levels are good at an amount of 100mgs a week you should stay at that level permanantly(of course you will adjust from time to time) then if you wanted to "blast" or do a "cycle" you could use a higher dose for 12 to 16 weeks and then drop back to your normal level you could do that a couple times a year if you choose to. Do you have specific body building goals? bloodwork?

    Tell you what, I've read a lot about "blasting" and while I can't say I wont try it someday I have been really impressed at the gains I've made at just my normal 100mg/week.

    I've added 40lbs to my bench workout weight in under 3 months. Granted I had LOTS of room for improvement coming from barely working out 2x/week to working out 5 days a week might have something to do with it.

    i also saw similar gains in similar time with similar doses of test(androgel actually)...

    i usually recommend adding in another compound(deca /var) for blast purposes rather than raising the trt dose

    Not to hijack but there is a thread concerning lower doses and the gains to be made from them.......I could be wrong but I believe Swifto posted it a couple weeks back, interesting observations in that thread. I agree with JP stacking more than one compound, even at lower doses can produce good gains.

    Agree with most of the posts here...this is not a hormone repla***ent protocol...not at that level.

    What is your hCG and AI weekly dosages?

    You need to post your current BW. You'll get a lot of very good responses if you do.
