I used deca to bulk and eq to cut for prep last year. I notice much greater water retention on deca but my joints feel great which is good when lifting heavier in off season. Eq doesn't seem to increase my appetite too much. Eq is almost side effect free and I seem to be able to retain the gains better when cutting.

I've run both. I like deca, if you keep the dose moderate, there is no need for caber etc. Feels good on the joints too. I would run test a minimum of 2 weeks longer than deca though.

2 totally different products. like comparing apples and oranges. one thing they do both have in common is that they are both very difficult to recover from.

It is widely believed that Deca is more suited for bulking cycles while Equipoise is more suitable for cutting cycles. Each one of them gets more of one kind of side effects than the other, when its comes to sides, pick your poison. Deca Durabolin is superior to Equipoise when it comes to retention of muscle mass and body strength but if you are ok with moderate slow but steady gains in terms of muscle mass and strength then EQ is likely the better choice due to its low estrogenic side effects. Equipoise also stimulates appetite slightly which puts it ahead of Deca in a way. I always stick with EQ, because I get amazing results with low sides.

Do you like dogs or cats?

2 completely different products. You will find equal amount of people liking each one of them. Which one will work best for you will depend on your goals. In my opinon both are for more advanced cycles and both should be treated with respect and require good research as each one of them can bite you back if you don't know what you are doing. Also both need to be run for longer periods of time so well put PCT is a must.
I like both of them, which one I use depends on my goals in given cycle

I love both, just for different reasons. Both have their purpose and work great and each has different downfalls.
