How have you been affected by this situation with the virus?

Me, personally, I started with my 12 week cycle and the first 2 weeks of my steroid cycle were great, I was following the virus updates as it was only in China and then 2 weeks later it got out of control and started spreading all over the world. Then it came to a point where the government announced that all gyms needs to be closed for "unknown period".

And I was just getting into 5th week of my cycle right when test fully kicked in. However I decided to stop with the cycle at week 5. Even though I have equipment at home, I know that I can make a lot more progress in the gym rather than working out at home. So that's what I did. I stopped with the cycle, at 5th week I did blood work to check where my estrogen levels are and they were through the roof so I was taking Aromasin for 1 week (every other day), then 1 week later I started with the PCT protocol (5 weeks Tamoxifen at 20mg every day and 5 weeks Clomid at 50mg every day).

This was my current 12 week cycle:
week 1 - 12 = Test E - 400mg per week (Mon & Thur pin)
week 3 - 12 = HCG - 250iu per week (Wed & Sat pin)
week 6 = blood work (to determine whether I need Aromasin or not)
PCT:
5 weeks Tamoxifen at 20mg every day
5 weeks Clomid at 50mg every day

I am still on PCT, currently I am in 2nd week.

Once this is over I will be giving my body a break. I won't be taking anything for 12 weeks.

Still workout at home just to maintain my muscles so once I get back at the gym I can continue with full blast.

How it is for you people?

Well there's quite a few that are still taking. And most of them got screwed by the virus just like me so they either low dosages or stop taking and do PCT right away.

I am not sure what you mean by "post body", if it's a picture, I would rather not. I'll just drop my stats below.

Height: 6.4ft
Weight: 220

Stop pushing it, reason why I am self conscious is because I am on PCT now. Maybe next time when I am on cycle.

I have heard a lot of people having to stop their cycles. Did you notice any acne when going into PCT?

Nope, I don't have that kind of issue at all. I never had any side effects at all. I am just more estrogen prone, I convert a lot in estrogen so thats why I have to start taking aromasin since the first week of my pinning.

That's really good. Are you worried about infertility at all? Sometimes HCG doesn't work for this.

I am not worried about it at all. Because I know what I am doing unlike some people where they abuse drug use for years and once they realize they are fully screwed they try to take HCG and later you see them ranting all over the internet how HCG does not help.

That's why the best is whenever you start the cycle, during the cycle you should start taking HCG so your nuts don't shrink and stimulate just enough. Been using steroids for 3 years (same cycle since the beginning, the one that is written above) and I am completely fine, 0 side effects.

This is usually the HCG protocol to follow.

1-7 week cycle - No HCG
8 week  cycle - Week 3-8 250iu twice a week
12 week  cycle - Week 3-12 250iu twice a week
16 week  cycle - Week 3-8 250iu twice a week
Week 11-16 250iu twice a week

Why do people do steroids

Why do people do steroids

Maybe because I have lower testosterone than every other normal human being. And with that being said instead of taking the recommended TRT dose, I take a bit higher dosage for shorter period of time. Some people take just to feel better or to build muscle, some take for shows etc ... But I do agree with you that taking steroids just to show off on the beach and to get girls is extremely stupid.

Lower testosterone? That’s interesting, is it possible to do the bigger dosage for a shorter period of time and it to have permanent effects? Not like your dick or balls shrinking but the desired outcome you want?

Lower testosterone? That’s interesting, is it possible to do the bigger dosage for a shorter period of time and it to have permanent effects? Not like your dick or balls shrinking but the desired outcome you want?

At the age of 24 I went to the doctor to check whats wrong with me (I was feeling a bit tired than normal and didn't felt that I had that much strength compared to the guys at my age, usually after gym I was pretty much collapsed and my body needed a sleep of at least 14 hours in order to recover, this was all due to lower testosterone) and after some tests they found out that I have lower testosterone so they prescribed me testosterone.

And to clear the confusion. Steroids does not shrink your dick, only your balls (but if you use hcg, there will be only slight difference in terms of shrinking compared to if you don't use it. Hcg helps to stimulate your testicles) .

So here's what I do.

I do 2 cycles per year. Usually I start at January.
I take test e at 400mg per week for 12 weeks. Keep in mind that this is considered a "beginner dosage" between the gym bros. After my last pin i wait for 2 weeks for my test to clear a bit and then I go into post cycle therapy for 5 weeks. Thats total 19 weeks. Thats how much I rest from steroids after my cycle and then I do it again. Like I said 2 cycles per year and I've been doing this for quite awhile and everything is normal. No side effects no nothing. Blood is perfect, thyroid functions normally as before and this is all due to me using test in normal dosages and with taking all the protection which helps with recovery.

The most important thing is to do 3 bloodworks which only some people do. You do pre-cycle, to check how is your blood and everything else, then you do mid blood work (mostly it is done to determine how high is your estrogen and whether you need to take something to bring it down a bit, else you will get gyno) and last blood work is done 2 weeks after you finish your PCT to see how you've recovered.

The most important is to have your bodyfat low, preferably is to be lean before you start with a cycle else all the fat in your stomach or anywhere else will play big part of getting a gyno. Thats why it is a MUST, to be lean before hopping on a cycle. 10-12% is perfect but no more than that.

And to answer your question. Yes it is possible to take higher dosages for short period of time, lets say instead of 12 weeks you go for 8 weeks. But I dont recommend as chances of screwing yourself are higher and abusing at abnormal dosages will definitely have an impact on your body later down the road. But if you use at normal dosages and have sorted diet, for example like me, you can build good muscle.

Also I've seen people doing lower dosages but instead of 12 weeks they go for 16 weeks. Well, I can tell you that if you plan on not to have kids then go for this. Your body will take so long to recover it's just won't worth the length of the cycle to be extended this much.

But most important is your diet and sleep. Good diet + 8 hours of sleep = amazing results. If you haven't figure out how much calories you need and what type of food your body can digest faster, you better dont even think about taking steroids. Because you can still make good muscle even if you eat like shit but once you drop that testosterone you will lose everything. Thats why its important to play smart and thing long term, think about the future...

Like I said food and rest play big part of your steroid cycle. If I get to break them down it would be: 45% food, 45% rest, 10% steroids. This is what will have most impact on you. If you are on a good quality diet and forget about all the shitty food you can make so much progress and even when you drop the steroid cycle you can maintain most of what you've build. Its just that you will have less strength but still you can maintain your muscle very easy. You can have cheat meal from time to time but I wont recommend after you stop with the cycle to completely change your diet and start eating donuts, drink coke, eating chocolate and all kinds of junk food.

This is my opinion on it. A bit longer but worth reading.

I personally don't use them but there's people all around the world taking them, it's always been like that.
Bodybuilders use roids all the time...

I don't understand why you seem surprised about it lol

Bruh I like the fact you aren't pushing it with the gear unlike a lot of guys I know. What is your own experience with Test E when compared to the other esters? I'm yet to run my first cycle but probably next year end due to the shitshow that this year has been. I plan on a simple 300g Test cycle but I haven't thought on the ester yet. Also ik side effects are subjective but how has it been for you?
