How close to Comps do physique and Bodybuilders end a cycle?

[Athlete127]

Do they time it out to end a week or two before a show or comp... Or do they run it through?

[Muscleduke]

Run it through.

[Bert]

That a loaded question. Different compounds are stopped at different times. Some guys cut out everything 2 weeks out.

Depends on what level of competition they're at, as well as each individuals contest prep. I think it's safe to say the Olympia competitors were all running some sort of gear through the contest.

[Bonaparte]

They'll normally drop test ahead of time, but the hardeners are run all the way through.
