    Will saturation levels going from TRT, to a test blast, be achieved faster? As compared to natural testosterone levels and then introducing exogenous test? Obv having bloods pulled would tell you for sure. Ie, you’re normally looking at +/- 6 weeks of a long ester to “notice.” Is this time frame cut down in regards to appearance and strength changes since you’re already injecting exogenous and simply increasing your dose? Does anyone have any actual blood work, or even just an anecdotal opinion on this?
    Maybe it'll be a little sooner? It's not enough of a difference though to make a difference. But I've never had to wait 6 weeks to notice something from test E or C to kick in. It'd always come in around 4 weeks for me, but no I don't get blood work to see if it's kicked in. It's pretty apparent, unless it's not working.

    If you want it to kick in quicker, you might want to use a shorter ester. Downside is you have to pin more often, but even with longer esters, breaking up the doses in to ever other day shots would reduce the peaks and valleys in your blood.

    This is the way.

    A lot of us want to avoid surprising our docs and the shorter esters get in and out faster. Just something to think about if you want to time a blast between blood work.
