Advice on using different compounds within one cycle
As a long time user I'm always trying new things to keep my body guessing, the last thing I want is for it to get "used" to my cycles. I've currently been testing using different compounds every couple weeks to keep my body guessing. I've come across this more and more, and recently watched a YouTube video on steroid cycle theories by Rich Piana where he discusses the benefits, which includes increased gains and not having to up dosages every 2-4 weeks. He even went as far as taking one kind of oral for half of a week and a different one for the rest of the week.
Anyways it's an interesting concept because anyone who has done extended cycles knows that you need to start upping the dose farther in your cycle to continue achieving consistent benefits. Which decreases as your body builds up a tolerance, which is why people cycle in addition to health, if you were to continue on the same gear at the same dose you'd start to see diminishing returns.
A bit about me, I've been running this cycle for about a month and a half. My starting weight was 225 and my current weight is 236. I'm 32 and 6'1.
I usually like to start with an oral to kick start my cycle, in this case I started with 50mg a day of anadrol with 750mg a week of sustanon. Sust has fast acting esters, which hit you faster than test e.
Around week 3-4 I upped my anadrol to 75mg a day. From the anadrol and sust I saw a gain in approx 10-15 lbs, as well as typical increases in strength and size, I made sure to keep my eating pretty clean so I didn't blow up.
Around week 4 I started up test e to replace the sustanon. Once I was fully off the anadrol around week 5, I started on deca with the test e.
I am currently in the regime and am about two weeks in, I'm seeing continued gains with no drop off, I'm taking 250-500mg of deca a week and 750 mg of test e, I've seen consistent gains and I haven't been upping my dose which people often have to do to see gains. This seems to be an indication that by switching compounds I won't need to up my dose.
I'll continue this to see how it goes for a few weeks and then I'll be transferring to tren and back to sust for my test. Although tren is a different compound I expect my test levels can be the same and I won't have to increase them.
We'll have to wait and see how this goes. Overall it makes sense to me and it seems to be going good so far. This could also be a good way to save some money on your cycle by not having to increase doses and also reduces the total amount of gear your taking and in turn reduces the wear of processing on your body.
I'll revisit this with updates but if anyone has any input it'd be greatly appreciated. Personally I've usually stuck to traditional cycles of just a few compounds and have increased the dose during a cycle to maintain consistent gains.

I actually plan to use somewhat of the same idea. I too watched that video and did some more research on it. But I'm using sustanon to prop and deca to tren ace. Anadrol to tbol. Basically going from long to short esters which seems like a better idea to me. I would have rather ran npp but unfortunately I didn't plan on changing compounds until after I already had a fuck load of deca. Anyway, I'm curious to see how this works out also because my gains seem to happen fast as fuck at the beginning and then slow down on same diet and same training. I'm sure some people disagree with certain aspects but I'll be just fine. I would try it next time with npp and tren ace. Anyway, Good luck bro.
Agree w you Roid Noid, I felt it was time to switch things up from my standard cycles, you never know until you try. Also feel that someone will learn from hopefully just my trials here! But even if there are errors that's something to learn from as well.
I'll be running the deca for 3 wks to a month, off the anadrol now. I'm coming up on 2 months and feel I'm still making significant progress, more so than my previous standard cycles, without having to up any of my doses. I'm super happy with the progress and increases in both size and strength.
This method is something I've read a lot about and have done my research. Aiming to find a method that works with the lowest doses possible providing maximum results. To any who are considering this method make sure you have a number of standard cycles under your belt and know your body. Reading and running your cycle on the advice of others should be taken with a grain of salt as each person's body responds to different compounds differently.
Started test e at week 4 and deca at week 5? That's not how you go about a "kick-start" my friend. How long is this cycle?
ive read about this kind of "cycle", ive done it but in a much different way then you are doing. By mixing shorts and longs at strategic times and doses, but nothing shorter then 4 weeks for orals and shorts and nothing shorter then 10ish weeks for longs.
I think your problem is food not chemicals, but with that said experience comes from trial and error, just make sure your keeping yourself safe with all these changes and milligrams....
New one on me but I'm a pretty straight forward old school kind of guy. The deca at week 4 is odd unless it's a long run but switching it up to another 19 nor(tren) kind of got me scratching my head. I'll have to wait for gearhead to split this one open and learn something.
RustyhookerThing that stands out to me is your deca started week 5...hits around week 9. How long are you taking this one?
Dang bro, I dunno where even to start with this. I would need to set aside a good 45 min. just to reply. LMAO I'm not sure there is anything you have written in the whole post I agree with. LOL This is a first for me.

Also, everyone is entitled to their opinion and we each have our own experiences, so if I can find the time to respond it will not be with any arrogance or high karma false sense of superiority. Karma does not represent how much we know about AAS.
