I know the way I cycle shit is pretty far out there but I do 2 weeks on 2 weeks off with about 4-6 weeks off after a few cycles, but I never have a bad experience with PCT doing things this way. I run Nolva during the off weeks along with Creatine and Beta Alanine and lots of BCAA and I really only eat at maintenance level, and I still make some minimal gains in the first few days off gear. The on and off periods are so brief that I don't see any DRAMATIC positive or negative effects. However, my progression is slow but very steady. Really most of my gains come during the 2nd ON week and the 1st OFF week. In my mind I seem to take 2 steps forward, and stand still for two steps. Psychologically this is much easier for me mentally then doing a 12-14 week cycle, making HUGE gains, then being off for a few months and watch my gains slowly and steadily drop to about half of what I had worked so hard to achieve. It would suck to know that I would be going into the gym today and my lifts are going to be sucking for a while. Not to mention, being on for only two weeks, I experience no NOTICEABLE side effects whatsoever, no acne, no water, no sexual issues, no testicular atrophy (I don't even use HCG). My cycle ends and I mentally I am fine, because gains keep coming during PCT, then my 2nd week of PCT hits and my gains taper off but I know I only have a week until I am back on. I generally only do 6-12 days of injections (depending on dose and half life) so that by day 14 my blood levels are at a level to allow my body to begin recovery. I do run an oral all 14 days (sometimes I increase the oral on the days I drop the injections). I like to use test (always Prop), a 19 nor (always NPP never Tren), and a DHT oral (winny or Var). I use them all in moderate doses. This is a pretty unusual approach to gear. But from what I have gathered, it allows for MUCH less negative side effects, and MUCH faster recovery but at the expense of huge gains (which helps to mitigate injury) for slow and steady, solid, easily maintainable gains. And I have no issue when I go off cycle.

Brother, it's the price we pay to walk, live, breath, lift and fuck on a higher plain than the mere mortals... Yes, post cycle depression is a motherfucker (always) but I've grown to accept it as part of the deal. On a good year i get 6-7 months ON and those 6+months make every moment of the OFF 6 worth it. And now I'm contemplating blast n cruise (thank you tread) which (in my mind) will only reduce me to Demi-God on my off months. Not everyone has the will, desire, fortitude and discipline to "live" as we do and thank God... how much would it suck if everyone walked with the immortals (LOL)

Like bodybuilder said I go out to gnc(rather not, fucking thieves), and get a weight gainer, preworkout, and maybe some nitric oxide or creatine. Just to experience somewhat of placebo affect for a week or 2. Usually tides me over for a little bit.

By the way welcome back bro

I know the feeling bro just finished my pct last week. What I do to try and get motivated to workout is load up on some pre workout supps. Belive it or not some of those actually work. Well at least for a couple of weeks.
