First time running NPP. Continuing to diet down until 8/26 bloods and 9/2 dexa scan before the blast. Plan to obviously run labs in between and at the end. I’ll get another dexa scan as well. For anyone that gives a shit, I’ll keep ya posted.
Let’s get these gains!

Nice TD. I have some of this on the way as well.
Sweet TD. I think you’re going to love NPP. You say you’ve never tried NPP. Have you ever run a cycle with Deca?
Would you recommend NPP for a bulking cycle? Pros / cons?
Nandrolone is typically preferred in a growth phase because it causes water retention and increases your scale weight and strength. There is also the added bonus of more fluid in your joints which helps as the weights get heavier. Much of the weight and strength you gain will be temporary and disappear once you stop taking the drug. However, if you eat in a surplus and train hard while using it, I believe you’ll grow more than if you were to stick with just dryer compound in addition to your test base. NPP is not a short ester but it is much shorter than Deca so it is good to use to see if you get on with nandrolone or if you’re more prone to the negative sides that many experience.
I have not. I wanted to have both on hand because I’m still toying with the idea of running them together and dropping the NPP for deca say 4+ weeks in.
The first time I ran a Deca cycle, I started by pinning NPP EOD and Deca EOD for the first three weeks and then dropped the NPP and continued with just Deca. It worked really well for me.
