Thanks for your wonderful input about this. I consider myself very knowledgeable on science (not bragging about it) and I actually enjoy researching all of this. But since you've been so cooperative, if you wish, can you clear me up why in a deca cycle, test is needed (I know it helps to maintain your test levels) but isn't test suppresive to the HPTA also? I've tried to look and look everywhere for my answer and still don't know why.

My friend is thinking of doing a cycle like this one: 200mg/week of deca for 8 weeks then the last 2 weeks increase it to 300mg. He was thinking of adding only 100mg of test each week, but he wasn't sure due to the fact that he still thinks Test will **** him up more than Deca, especially both combined. Hopefully you can clear this up. Thanks everyone again.
