Sup Roiders,
Been a while since I've posted. Had our second baby girl recently in a foreign country so life's been a little crazy.

I finally got my hip checked out and I'm up for a hip resurfacing procedure sometime this year (probably August 2013. I've worn my left hip into the ground with basketball (20+ years).

Hip resurfacing is not a total hip replacement but it is close. If anyone has experience with this do let me know interested to find out some experiences. My hope is to return to an active and sporty lifestyle in my early to mid 30s.

I'm up for my second cycle (once a year only for me). I am preparing my body for a cycle that should start around 9 weeks from today (need to drop body fat and get to a 'natural' goal first. My cycle plan is still in the works but it is a Test E (weeks 1-16) + Equipoise cycle (Weeks 1-14) + PCT (and Aromasin EOD on-cycle), from a first high level stab.

But with just major surgery coming up, I wanted to know what people's advice are for being on cycle or 'just-off' cycle prior to such a major operation?

I understand the cleaner my body and blood is the better it is for the surgeon's work, but I also want to be in peak physical condition to allow for a speedier recovery. I also have goals this year that I don't want to put on hold because after hip recon I will only fall behind the 8-ball because I'll be in crutches for a while and then limited in activity.

Your advice is welcome:
1. Postpone the cycle altogether for next year post-op?
2. Time the cycle to end within a safe period off-cycle prior to surgery (1 month I am assuming is safe, I have no idea looking for help)?

Obviously being ON-CYCLE during surgery has too many unknowns. I won't risk it. Unless someone has a different experience.

Thanks!
