High reps while on cycle?

Everyone is different and I would say do what you find works best for you. Research support that a mixture of low and high rep ranges is the most optimal. Gear increases recovery rates but does not change the fundamentals. I would recommend a daily undulating peridoization routine to maximize both hypertrophy via volume, and strength via heavy loads. I usually keep my strength reps around 5 or less, and my hypertrophy reps between 8-12. I rest 3 min inbetween strength sets and 1.5min for hypertrophy sets.

Yea you right.
Ill be doing 1 strength day once a week, 1 body part per week

This, except gear changes more than recovery rates. One of the primary fundamentals changed is MPS (muscle protein synthesis) turnover and up-time. When you stimulate a muscle (naturally) MPS is raised in that muscle for a period of anywhere between 1-3 days where as you stimulate a muscle on gear and you get more like 3-6 days of spiked MPS. So as a natural lifter you're only making positive adaptations for those 1-3 days, after that all the extra volume you did is now just worthless recovery time. Where as on gear all the volume you can do you'll be making positive adaptations for a 3-6 day period. This is a primary reason why higher frequency training with lower volume (higher frequency usually works out to higher total volume anyway) is superior for naturals.

Completely agree on DUP, 2-3 sessions per muscle group per week using varying rep ranges will produce superior gains over a single rep range, especially since getting optimal stimulation varies per muscle group and per exercise. So sticking with any one rep range is simply short-changing yourself.
