Opinions on cruising and blasting.. instead of standard cycling?

So here's a logical question.....

What IF being on TRT actually gives you the gains you associate with cycling... without the cycling? If you could just do 100 mg of Test Cyp every week year round and get the results of doing a Test/Tren/Anavar/Whatever cycle.... which one would you do? What if "cycling" is all wrong due to sides that you lessen by doing long term TRT? Anyone research the variances between cycling and long term TRT yet (and document it)?

The idea of TRT is to give normal test levels, so your basically asking will training natty all year give better results then doing 1-5 cycles per year, my understanding of why people make sometimes drastic gains when they start TRT is from having the test levels of a teenager again, pre TRT they had test of a 80yr old man and struggled to make any gains so it comes as a nice shock when they make quick gains at start of treatment

Also I dont see how the short term sides from a moderate cycle prop/var for example are worse then from TRT if everything is kept in normal ranges, I have heard storys of people having terrible trouble with TRT (including several members here) basically due to poor advise from docs undereducated on the treatment

Yea- but with "tuning" you can keep your TRT levels in the upper portion of the "normal" range quite easily. My test per blood work is around the 900's range which is pretty high (like 17/18 year old) as to where some people on TRT are in the 500's in happy. I stay in the 900's just because I feel a lot better than I do at 500 both which were tuned by blood work.

What I'm asking in my example is if you are strictly on cycles only to gain muscle mass (not because of medical necessity)... and you cycle 3 times a year where your test levels are going to 3 times the normal range... how much more if any benefit are you getting over someone that keeps themselves at 900 all year long. Make sense?
