Hey everyone,

I'm new to this website and I have a question regarding my first cycle coming up in March. I was looking to post a thread under 'Questions and Answers' but it says they are no longer accepting new threads. So I was hoping that if I posted this reply on a highly viewed thread, somebody would see it and maybe provide me with the answer I'm looking for. Also, if anyone knows a better place for me to post a separate thread with my question, please let me know.

I'm a first time user and I decided to go with a friend's advice to stack Anavar with Test Cypionate. I have 100 10mg tabs of Anavar and 15ml of Test Cypionate - so my question is, how should I work my dosages for an 8 week cycle? I heard that I should slowly wean down my dosages of both so as not to increase estrogen and cortisol so quickly.

Any input would be greatly appreciated! Thank you,

DL

Skip the anavar and run 500 mgs of test per week.

What exactly are strip sets? I understand drop sets, rest-pause, supersets etc. but I can't figure out what is meant by strip sets. I know one thing for sure, your against them, so I need to know what they are...LOL. By the way, I do straight sets to good failure using the best form I'm capable of...

Titan strip sets are drop sets. They can be referee to either, the idea is if you had a barbell with 3 plates a side on it you do one set of say bench press with 315 then you STRIP a plate off for 225 and do as many at that weight. Exactly the same as a drop set just called something different

Ronnie I was over on bodybuilding(dot)com just to see what ideasthey have on training over there... Side every forum is different! And I saw somebody had posted something on STS and they seem to think that if your doing 12 sets of cheat for a reload at say 8-10 to good failure then when it's time to do a deload that you cutthe
Volume in half and do pretty much warm up sets of 12-15reps... Not to failure. So if they were to fail with bench press at 225lbs/12... They would do say 150lbs/12 not reaching failure... I said the idea
Of a deload and reload is to go goodfailure for both and the main thing is to cut the volume in half. Seems to me like they have your Program a little mixed up like they are reloading then doing a prime instead of a deload... So they just keep on reloading and priming.......

Yes so far me describing how a deload properly works is turning into an argument that I don't know what I'm talking about and my proper explanation of how a deload works is here is a quote from what one of the I guess experienced kid members said "I don't think the idea of a deload is to lift to failure...that is actually completely contrary to the point of a deload" I do recall you saying there were alot of know it all kids over there a while ago... I should have listened LOL

heres an example of a strip set: You get under 315 lbs and do 10 reps to failure on squats. Two training partners strip the weight down as fast as they can to 225 lbs and you crank out another 10 reps to failure. They strip it down again and you do 135 lbs for 10 reps to failure. Lastly, they take off all the weight and you do as many reps as possible with just the bar. All that work constitutes 1 strip set. (it's a nauseating workout that causes people to become ill and/or pass out!!!)
