Coming down from a blast

For all you B and C’ers, how do you feel coming off a blast down to a cruise level? Do you feel like shit for a week or two until your body adjusts? Or is it pretty much seamless? Thanks!

Relatively seamless. I can feel it mostly at the gym. Like ~2 weeks after lowering to cruise dose, I’ll grab the weights and my body is just going “why the fuck are you here?”

Personally, I felt a little better. Didn’t lose any strength or muscle, just water weight which was a plus.

Feel like a natty on cruise. Some guys out there cruise 300-500mgs of test which is beyond me…

What is your cruise dose? Week 2 of 150mg Test c here. Not much strength difference. Could be to early to tell but blasted 500mg of test e from that underdosed
Batch of gear heros (glad they are gone btw) running Gumball now

Pinning once or twice on cruise?

Pin twice for 175mg a wk

Really? As far as I know you shouldn’t be able to retain all your strength as there is no longer supraphysiological amounts of steroids in your blood… Did your weight not take a hit after going on a cruise?

Been “on” for 5 years now, tbh i don’t feel any subjective difference between 250-750

I’ve trained in blocks of strength and hypertrophy for years so my strength has been built-up for a long time. Greg Nuckols has a great write-up about how much steroids contribute to trained athletes. I also don’t take much compared to most guys here. 400/500 test and 25 dbol a wk is my go to. I’m sure once I add other compounds I’ll take a significant hit on a cruise. I lost 8 lbs, from 221 to 213 morning weight.

That’s not too bad, assuming most of that will be water weight? AFAIK dbol does cause strength to increase quite a bit though.

I typically feel better. Whether it’s nagging minor injuries I’ve experienced, overuse/tendonitis starting to creep up, or BP/HR returning to normal it’s always nice as things come down to cruise. Then the reality sinks in that I’m not quite as superhero as I was a few weeks ago.

Yeah, it’s just water weight. How long have you been training? You can actually gain strength on a cruise if you haven’t been training long. It’s not like you are at your peak natural limits and there are more variables to strength than mass. That’s why stronger guys starting steroids won’t see as much of a drastic jump in strength. Nuckols is smarter than me and explains it better. I wouldn’t worry about it

I’m just worrying about it because when I hopped off cycle last time I felt very very weak at the gym, could not push the weight I had been pushing, and I’m 100% sure this is what contirbuted to a loss in muscle mass- if I’m pushing a certain weight and then I start doing much less, the body is going to adapt to that and get rid of the muscle mass it doesn’t need… right?

I usually feel a bit better overall, tbh. I cruise at 200 mg/ml test and will retain most, if not all, of my strength depending on what I was blasting on.

I don’t know why you lost that much. Way too many variables to guess and I don’t know what you did. All I can tell you is that mass isn’t the only factor with strength. If it was than bodybuilders would be the strongest guys, but they’re not.

I think you’re at high risk of abusing steroids tbh. You want too much, too soon. Cruising at 250 would more than likely put you way higher than a cruise dose. Good luck

Hardly, just want to make sure I retain at least 80%. 500mg blast and 250mg cruise (just test) is hardly what I call abuse.

Oh do enlighten me. All I know is 250mg is the dose my doctor puts me on and lands me at 990 ng/dL.

You don’t say, hmm, didn’t you say you’re currently on your 2nd cycle and have decided to cruise after? So you’re already been prescribed try? Very confusing lol. Anyways, like I said, do what you want because I literally could not care any less. I’m sure you have it all figured out and you sound like you know a lot about training.
