Strength cycle advice

[bang_bang]

Doing a couple of power lifting comps this year so I'm wanting to get a bit juicier than normal. I've done 3 cycles test/deca 450mg pw, test/eq 450mgs pw, and test/eq 700mgs pw. Lifts are 160 bench, 195x3 squat (then injured myself) and 260 dlift all at 98kg. Approx 15% bf. I've recently recovered from my injury so I should be squatting around 220 soon.

I want to compete in the 90-100kg class. I've been on test/eq for 25 weeks and I'm going to bridge this cycle on 250mg test before doing a proper pct post comp. I'm anticipating I'll be in the low 90s under 10% when I start my prep. At this stage I'm thinking about using, starting 12 weeks out, 200mg deca, 500mg test

and 4 weeks of 50mg anadrol daily coming into comp. I'll run adex too.

How does my proposed cycle look to you guys? Any other suggestions? I'm keen to hear about peoples anadrol experiences.

If you 12 weeks out run anadrol 50mg pw first 4 weeks and last 4 weeks. But last few days before comp id be using more and on day of comp. That what id do anyway.

Deca and test be good inj. Your doses seem low but how much you use up to you. Get stronger with more of both tho. Got my 200kg bench on deca (actually npp) 700 test 875 (PW).

Yeah fairly average dose but still a decent step up from what I've done.

I was considering npp as well do you reckon you hold less water with npp over deca? I've never run adex I'm hoping It'll help with water retention or is a prami/caber a better option for that purpose? I used deca/test on my first cycle and gained 19kg in 12 weeks lol.

Inject deca more frequently to avoid plasma spikes and subsequent metabolization...

Adex won't help with estrogenic issues caused by nandrolone..

D2 agonists are prescribed for prolactinoma, or PD, they won't do shite for nandrolone side effects... 

[bang_bang]

I was thinking any estrogenic issues would be due to the higher test and I thought prolactin couldn't do anything if estrogen is under control anyway? What's the best way to minimise water retention Daz?

Not be a fat piece of shit. Thats a serious answer.

Water retention good for strength training. Grow a beard, hide moon face.

I think you've previously mentioned 200mg Deca, 500mg Test..!!

From memory once the ester weight has been removed from 200mg Deca, about 120mg of nandrolone is left.. I'd be doubling the deca at least...

500mg test is OK, and the only compound you can control with an AI... But unless your very estrogen sensitive I wouldn't bother with an AI, your body needs estrogen for healthy bodily functions....

 

Why the big concern with prolactin, have you previously shown high on blood tests, or are you panicking for no reason? Your body needs prolactin also..

 

If you experience gyno type symptoms on Nandrolone, drop it..!!

 

Why are you concerned with water retention..? Manage salt intake..!!

 

As previously stated, don't be a fat c*nt, and you shouldn't have to worry about estrogen too much..!!

A lot of people recommend 2:1 test deca ratio. I could bump it up but I'm already going to be running 350mg more and first time using something as potent as anadrol. Not overly concerned about estro or prolactin but I did get some mild estro or prolactin sides when I ran deca/test. Bloat, itchy puffy nips and felt quite lethargic all the time. 20mg nolva for a few days stopped the itchy nips but I thought a more preventive approach might be prudent this time considering I'll be running almost twice as much.. I was well under 10% when I began that cycle. It was my first though and I bulked hard so controlling my diet will probably help a lot.

Not wanting to blow up too much as I want to compete under 100. Just want the deca in there for joint support
