+ 1 Over 45 once a year cycle.

ad

I'm 45, 5 ft 3/163cm and 83kgs/183lbs.

I usually do a cycle once a year the rest of the time I'm on 200mgs of test a week for TRT as per endo.

Last year I used 500mgs Sustanon and 250mgs Deca and 400mgs Mast a week for 12 weeks. Arimidex 1mg every 3rd day. Ended up nice and hard and gained about 4.5kgs/10lbs good lean muscle.

Wanted to try another similar cycle,maybe using a few different compounds. Had thought of Tren but at my age there is'nt much point is there. Would you guys do what I did above or try something new?

Thanks.

Edit: I would be less than 10% bodyfat though I have no idea really. My avatar is me a few months ago. I eat 7 meals a day,2 shakes the rest are a protein,carb and veg with some fats and oats berries etc. No idea on calories but I've been doing it 25 years and would be between 3000-4000 a day most likely.

Walk everyday 1-1 /2 hours as I have dogs and they need that much exercise.

Never had BP issues,all cholesterol and general blood-work is normal.

I train 4-5 times a week.

Thanks for that mate ,much appreciated ! That would be easy to do cos I can get all of that easily,already have half that now. May switch to NPP,as a change as you are right it will ramp faster,been 4-5 years since I last used that.

I would of ran the deca at least 16 weeks. But, I did a 6-7 week cycle using test e, test p, and npp, couple months ago. It was great.

I really liked npp. It was my 1st time using it. I was looking for something different, other than tren. And it was a very successful cycle. Sust, test p, npp, and mast is what I'm considering next time. Those 12+ week cycles get rough, 4 me anyways. I like short, to the point big dose, then recover. It's all personal preference though.

Thanks for the feedback,what sort of dose for those 6 weeks then? All my bloods are ok over 12 weeks,in saying that I still only like to cycle once a year. Just wondering how my system might react to 2 shorter cycles a year? Interesting.

A good starting point would b the following.
Test c 200mg a week
Test p 300-400mg a week
Npp 250-300mgs a week
Drop all compounds on last week except cruise dose and continue with trt.

Just keep the test double whatever u run npp at. And u should be fine.

I like short cycles better bc u recover faster and pinning all the time gets old. Keep it simple, get nutrition in check and u will really like that cycle. No harsh or negative sides. Just lift heavy, and have fun.

I've had great success doing these little cycles and really enjoy em.

Thanks mate,for all your info,will sit and ponder on this for a while,means I could get 2 smaller cycles a year in and am sure they are safer than one longer one. Not that I've had issues ,but as we get older,its something to always consider. Cheers.

P.S How can I vote up on these replies...I click the thumbs up and nothing happens...

No problem man. I like the 2 smaller cycle idea. Not as hard on you.

No worries on the up vote. U have to have 50 b4 u can up vote someone. Take care.

Thanks for the answer on that History. Tossing up whether to do your smaller cycle idea as a change or go with what I am used to,but switch the Deca for NPP...have a few weeks to make my mind up. Thanks again :-)

U welcome, try something new. Very simple, yet effective. Good luck with whatever you choose.

Like you, i'm on TRT and have done a few cycles as well. I'm 50 and have added tren ace on a cycle last year. I liked it as it did provide nice gains but i'd suggest the 1st time that you keep the dosage low and see how you react with it.I found the sides (no sleep, and night sweats) became a problem when i went higher than 50 mg/day. As long as you use tren Ace, it clears your system fairly quick compared to Tren Enthanate, so if you don't like it, (or it doesnt like you) you can stop and have it out of your system within a few days.

I did become a bit more short tempered on it but it was nothing unmanageable.

Thank you,if I was to use Tren,it would be Acetate and I had thought of 25mg Prop/40mg Tren and 40mg Mast a day...as another option from what I have been used to over the years. But those sides always scare me,as I need my sleep!
I've seen people say that low a dose would not be worth it,but I seem to grow on low ish doses and as I only cycle once a year ,for the last 10 years, I keep most of my gains.

When you added it,what did you add it to? Also how long did you run it?
