    halo is overated. at least for me. good for aggression though. get some dbol. cheap and effective. compounds work different for different people. there isnt one ultimate cycle. it is trial and error. if you can get a hold of halo. definately try it. i know others who love it.

    I was wondering if I was the only one feeling this way... suspension does the trick for me in terms of aggression. Oh, and by the way great to talk to ya DR... it's been too long!

    yo RJ. good to talk to you too! i thought i was the only one feeling that way as well. it worked well for me once, after that , never saw near the same results.

    i am told cheque drops are the real deal for aggression.

    I've tried them and they're not that great. They work good for about 30minutes to an hour then you kind of crash a little.. and oddly enough they give me heart palps..

    good info. i wont even bother looking for them. i dont want to take them for the squat and than a half hour later crash before it is time to bench.

    also great info on your program. i tried to do what you proposed. start with dbol, first few wks, take a break for a few wks, end with halo. again i was i disapointed. i got more out the dbol and the halo did crap at the end besides make me angry. only advantage i could see for myself to choose halo at the end is that if you have to cut weight, this compound wont bloat you

    I agree.. I'm a former Powerlifter but switched to strongman a couple of years ago. The basic cycle idea is the same.

    My current cycle looks something like this.. When I started I was about 14 weeks out from my show but I pretty much stay on all year anymore (I took some time off earlier this year but that's not related to this so I won't get into it). When not gearing up for a contest I usually just run 200mg weekly of test and 500IU's of HCG 2x weekly.

    Here's MY cycle that I'm running for my upcoming meet.

    Weeks 1-6
    Test 750mg weekly
    Dbol 30-50mg Daily ( I back it down when the sides get too bad)
    Deca 300mg weekly (just to keep my joints lubricated)
    HCG 500IU's 2x weekly and .5mg Arimidex E3d

    Weeks 7-10
    Test 750mg Weekly
    Deca 300mg
    (same hcg and arimidex protocal)

    Weeks 11-14 (same as weeks 1-6
    I throw my dbol back in at the end. The only thing I might do is if I'm riding the line on my weight I might run a little Lasix (but I never like to cut more than 10-15lbs that way) It makes it too difficult to recover strength wise by the next morning for your show.

    After the show I'll kill the deca and the dbol but continue the 200mg of test and HCG arimidex protocal for about four or five weeks. By this point I don't need the arimidex anymore and I'm pretty much just taking the low dose of test and HCG.

    I like to run HCG all throughout the year now. It keeps my boys full and 500IU's 2x weekly isn't enough to cause any damage to the leydig cells and it helps with my overall mood.

    I agree about the Halo but I'm considering throwing it back in for this cycle possibly at the end instead of throwing the dbol back in. But I might change my mind based off of the last time I used Halo. Last time I literally tried to pull a guy out of his truck for cutting me off and flipping me off in traffic. I've never been one to put much stock in roid rage but I have to say that Halo definitly makes me personaly more aggressive and I have to stop and count to 10 a lot more while on it.

    But in a nut shell IMO the best simple cycle is just 500mg test weekly and 30-50mg of Dbol daily for the first four or five weeks and the last four or five weeks. IMO running dbol straight for 12 weeks or so is too hard on the liver. I've found that giving myself four or five weeks in between the dbol doesn't cause me any liver problems... but everyone is different.

    Does that make any sense or does it make it about as clear as mud?
