+ 1 What’s the longest you’ve ran tren? (Or any 19nor)

Curious to hear what’s the longest y'all were able to handle? Health marker and mental wise, AND if you feel like it was worth it or if results plateaued after a certain time frame.
Note: not advocating to do this or try to push it if you haven’t, but hey, I think we all have done things that aren’t conventionally the best for us

I was only on Deca for 12 or 13 weeks, felt great physically, but mentally I was becoming really depressed. Maybe a mix of deca, but also had quite a bit of life stressors hitting me all at once!
I'll give them a shot again eventually, now that I'm in a better place
Pack just landed…… Shits like the goblin mask, telling me to say fuck it and do a ton. Shits dark like the smores syrup!
20 weeks
As high as 750mg a week
Health markers didn’t get too out of whack
Mentally I feel fine on Tren
Night sweats come and go
Horny AF
Worth it? Idk. Guess I’ll have to run it again to be for sure.
That’s my bro! Scientific method, boy …gotta replicate the experiment to confirm the findings… preferably at 750 again just to eliminate variables :devil:
For research purposes only, of course.
I ran Deca for 12 weeks but I had a lot of ED problems. Stopped when I took caber at 1 mg a week
First run with Deca many years ago and had always heard about deca dick. I didn't pay it no mind being young and I hooked up with this bangin hot lab tech at the hospital. We went and got a room after work and my shit ran back inside my stomach. I was so freaking pissed. Didn't touch it for a long time after that.
What was his name?
You get redemption with that lab tech though?
6 weeks l had ro pull the plug lol. Zero sleep at week 6.
Too long I'm sure
rhino82Longest I could handle was 3 weeks running the Tren at 400mg per week. The sweating and mental sides just kicked my ass.
Dkoon211A long fucking time.
20 weeks at 300 mg on tren e.
I was able to take Deca at a dose of 600 mg per week for six months, but then I reduced it to 300. Deca with Testosterone and a little Dbol is like driving a luxury car. No problems with mood or health. Sometimes you have to drain blood.
You are a man after my heart.
Ya bro your blood had to be ragu lol.
24 weeks total.
Ran it anywhere from 300mg up to 1.4g at the peak.
Bro, Let’s be real … tren isn’t “healthy” at any dose. There’s no safe version of it.
For me personally:
Minimum effective dose: around 300/350mg
Sweet spot / max tolerable: 700mg
Right now I’m at 175mg (acetate, pinned ED). Been 2 weeks at this dose and planning to hold it for 4 more. It’s basically a final push during a growth phase … figured why not experiment with a “low dose” approach while I’m not deep in a cut and starving.
Honestly?! I feel like I’m on tribulus or something lol
With Tren, it always comes down to cost vs benefit. If you’re already dealing with the usual package … shortness of breath, night sweats, the mental edge … even at a lower dose… but you’re not really getting that full anabolic punch?
Is it even worth it at that point?
I don’t know… what do you think?
All acetate, pinned ED. I honestly don’t know how I’d handle enanthate or parabolan with the longer ester and the compound building up over time.
When I was pushing it hard (2cc/day at one point), I eventually hit a wall mentally and physically. Once I pulled the plug and hit the brakes, I felt noticeably better in about 48 hours, and within a week it was like my soul came back into my body.
That’s one reason I stick to acetate … you have control. If things go south, you can recover fast. With enanthate or hex? If you crash hard, I imagine you’re riding that wave for weeks whether you like it or not.
Was it worth it?!?! Physique-wise, yes. The results are undeniable. But past a certain point, returns definitely start to diminish while stress on health markers and mental state keeps climbing.
That’s just my experience. Tren gives, but it also takes.
Never ran tren, but I'm seeing more and more people pin low amounts now. Low as in 18-30mg a week. From your experience, is that dose going to do anything?
I’m not really aligned with this new trend coming from influencers and YouTubers. To me, Trenbolone is highly individual. Everyone has their own sweet spot … where the benefits are solid and the side effects are minimized.
Personally, though, I don’t buy into the idea of low-dose Tren as a true lean mass builder. Maybe it has a place for maintenance, or for polishing and finishing a bodybuilder who already has a fully developed physique. But as a primary anabolic driver for adding new lean tissue? I’m not convinced.
Dude you are insane. I couldnt sleep on 100mg a week with test and dbol lol
I’m just a conservative lab rat, bro.
Bro mg for mg I honestly think Dbol hits harder than people give it credit for.
Funny enough, Tren doesn’t wreck my BP like Dbol does. By week 2–3 on Dbol my blood pressure is through the roof … headaches, that pressure behind the eyes, and those savage lower back pumps lmao
Everybody reacts different, but Dbol smacks me way harder than most expect.
Agree with everything you said
10 weeks for a prep and I felt on fire. Sides for me is sweats at night and some insomnia. I can handle tren pretty good so I’m thinking of adding it in and running it during this fat loss phase.
Should be posting some goodies today and maybe will be a few tren
For me it’s really dose dependent I can handle 300mg a week with minimal sides. For some strange reason though at the very start I get tired n emotional and it goes away within 2-3 weeks or so. I think it’s body adjusting
It’ll be interesting if I go over the 350mg I’ve maxed at.
With the 76 I get today I think I’ll start at 350mg and maybe go up a little to 455mg
I don’t get the mental sides from tren, mostly just night sweats and the insomnia. With that being said I have run tren for 16+ weeks without feeling terrible. However, because of the lipid impact and that it also is taxing on the liver, I have been only running it for 8-10 weeks. Just to limit my exposure.
Makes total sense. What dose?
I try not to go past 350. Im not a big dude, im only 5’3” and weigh bout 150ish rn (cutting on a cruise). So with that factored in , i generally stay around that as im more keen to using modest doses accross the board not just with tren.
Not hating, I genuinely love your name now that I know your height.
Lol i thought it was very fitting.
Couple years.
Ran 400 NPP and 420 tren e. I ran for 8 weeks with no noticeable mental sides. That said, I did end up killing my lipid profile (anadrol didnt help). 13 HDL and 112 LDL. After getting off for 2 days, I found myself in the hospital with pancreantitus that was caused by poor triglycerides. Won't be experimenting with that high of a dose anymore.
3 weeks and it made me strong AF!!! I was going to run in in my cycle I’m about to do but changed my mind. It doesn’t make me bigger and I don’t need it during cutting
if it makes you stronger, doesn't that correlate with you getting bigger if you give it more time than 3 weeks?
Not really. I have got much stronger without getting bigger. Before I learned to eat.
It depends over what Rep range he is talking about getting stronger in, you also have to remember that trenbolone dehydrates you at the same time and can also to a degree fizzle fat away if you are eating a deficit diet at the same time. So although you gain muscle you are in fact shrinking elsewhere so you don't physically look much bigger I always found.
For example I was at my strongest when I was only 185lbs running high trenbolone, as opposed to me being around 215lb's now but being weaker off tren. I have higher body fat now but on top of muscle I look much bigger if you get me.
That’s exactly right, people don’t get this. Tren really shines physically when ur relatively lean. If you’re not, you’ll get strength gains but possibly look a tad smaller/flatter
In my younger days I was around 225-230. That’s when I ran it at 400mg/wk for eight weeks. Had zero issues, however that was probably the “healthiest” I had ever been.
Did a bulk for 16 weeks with npp (400mg a week) straight into a cut with tren ace (350mg a week) currently on week 9. So 25 so far. Only problem is night sweats and some insomnia at times. But overall everything is still going in the right direction. Plan on stopping this cut at week 12 should be 10% ish BF. Labs have actually been pretty good. Hdl is low but I take cholesterol meds already for LDL control.
16 weeks and counting buddy. Not tren tho. NPP. I'm a moody bitch on it.
Like a swole, angry woman.
Longest I've survived on that devil's cough syrup tren was a glorious 8 weeks.
Weeks 1–4: Pure fucking sorcery. Strength exploding, veins looking like roadmap. Sleep? Decent. Aggression? Manageable.
Weeks 5–8: Gains still rolling in, but the dark side awakens. Night sweats so bad the sheets look like I went swimming in them. Paranoia creeping. Rage boners at random times, zero patience.
Cardio? What cardio? Breathing heavy after tying my shoes. Mental health taking Ls left and right, but PRs keep coming.
Week 9? Hard pass. Woke up one morning realizing I was about to start beef with my own reflection.
Worth it? For those 8 weeks – 1000% yes. Looked like a Greek god carved from granite
Btw that was all when I was younger. Now I wouldn't use it because there are much healthier versions with which I can achieve at least 70% of that feeling/look.
What are, in your opinion, the healthier options. I’m sincerely asking because Im currently running low dose tren (100mg week) but I don’t want to keep doing this. This is my second go around, so I’m looking for future options. I currently do 120/140mg test cyp (super responder), 200mg mast e, 100mg tren e.
DHB is as close as it gets to tren in my experience
I think Primo is a good alternative, obviously not as powerful but results are close without all the sides.
Tren Hex is still my favorite compound. However, I always ran 2:1 Tren/Test ration, I've noticed sides are much less when Test is low.
Look into DHB Hades, I've read/heard it's like a tren-lite. I'm going to be running it in a couple of months once I get lean.
That’s exactly what it is
Imma look into it, sounds promising!!
