Test E/Deca cycle options

[swollix]

Based off the cycle here under Novice Cycles II

I took out the d bol because I don't feel like it does much for me outside of back pumps. My test E is dosed at 300mg per ml and my deca is 250mg per ml. Is it better to do

500mg test E weeks 1-12
250mg deca weeks 1-10

or

600mg test E weeks 1-10
300mg deca weeks 1-8


This is my second cycle, first was test e 500mg/week weeks 1-8 (I know, too short) and d bol 25 mg weeks 1-2, 50mg weeks 3-4. I gained 13 lbs.
I am 5'11" 190, probably 16% bodyfat. (you judge)

I would up the deca to at least 400mg. My last cycle was 500mg test e/500 mg deca for 13 weeks and I felt the results were lacking. Where I went wrong was I didn't jump start it with something. Doesn't have to be dbol, but I would add something else in there. Just my opinion.

24, look at my join date. I waited till I was older to cycle and I read up rather than posting a bunch!

if it was me i would bump the deca up a little. keep the test at 500mgs like your 1st cycle and bump the deca up to 300-400mgs a week

So you would pick the first option but increase the deca? Also deca kicks in around 4 weeks correct?

600mg test E weeks 1-9
400mg deca weeks 1-7

deca half life is 4 weeks so it kicks in around week 2-3

my 2 cents

7 weeks of deca enough?

Most would say longer the better. Most recommend 12+ weeks..

However there are arguments saying after 8 weeks gains plateau.

Hmm, guess I'll try it and see. I'm leaning toward the shorter cycle because of the higher doses.
