Coming off test but staying on deca to give receptors a break

[dianabolman]

Okay so i dont want to get into all the broscience shit but to make it simple we all know that when you cycle off and get back on you make tremendous gains. ive been on 3 years, still making decent gains but the amount of test i have to take is stupid , so the dumb question is, is if i come off test completely and just take deca, to maintain my gains, and give my body a rest, will my body clear the test and see it as if i cycled off and then when i do decide to get back on test make better gains off of less test because my “receptors have had a break”? or will it just be the same as before because i never really came off. I have done a deca only cycle before to experiment, kept all my sexual functions, really it was like normal to be honest, however when i introduced test again it was only a trt dose and i didnt drop the deca, so i cant really go off of that for experience. thanks

This whole receptor break thing is not proven but if you want to try I would just do a real cruise (100 mg Test ONLY per week for most people) with no other compounds for at least two months. Then do a blast.

IMO people who don’t take extended breaks (real cruise or PCT) are significantly harming their short term and long term health without actually making much better gains than if they took breaks.

Deca has most of its binding at the Ar receptor. Test actually binds at the AR and the non AR meditated receptors. Apparently deca binds to the receptors stronger and there is more available at the receptor site than test but is only half as anabolic.

In my experience Its better to come off or at least drop down to a low dose TRT. whether it be test or deca. I think we reach a point of over saturation where were obtaining more sides by pushing the dose but not getting much more gains out of it. I was on for 3 years as well and kept pushing higher. I Dropped for 4 months to TRT dose of test, got my bloods right, and when I started up again packed on 9LBS of muscle in 8 months and maintained 8% BF. I grew like crazy and felt healthy. I only used 500mg test ew and 600mg Eq EW The last 8 weeks I bumped test to 750

Might as well just come off everything for the time you’ve chosen right?

Regardless of the hormone you’re still stimulating the receptor at a rate greater then natural and not getting the “break” you’re looking for. A nice cruise is probably just what you need. Get yourself down to a normal physiological dose of test (700-1200ng) and give your body a break. Get a nice deload in while you’re cruising so that when you go back to blasting your entire body is ready to go.

If you’re afraid to go back to “normal” on a true cruise, you can dabble with some Proviron or Anavar at reasonable doses to fend off SHBG, Coritsol, and the other numerous benefits. REASONABLE. Yes, you’re still taking additional compound but these are mild and “easy” relatively speaking.

Okay I like The sound of this one what would be a reasonable dose of the orals and which one would you choose?

One of the biggest reasons to cruise is to normalize your cholesterol, anavar will do the exact opposite of that.

I agree. 25-50mg of Proviron daily should give OP the feeling of being “on” without wrecking his lipids or liver. I would start at 25mg since it’s a cruise and he’s trying to give himself a break.
