Why do?.?.?...

[BrotherIron]

This is something I'm even guilty of... Why does everyone run Test Cyp or Test Enanth for their TRT (self-prescribed or even from a clinic)???

I know with a shorter ester you have greater control of the AAS in your body and you can try to limit peaks and valleys but I remember back in the day a member of another board had evidence that peaks and valleys in blood serum levels aren't necessarily a bad thing.

I've thought about trying Test U for my self-prescribed TRT but haven't taken the plunge. I, like so many others, use Test Cyp.

Another question is with the half-life of Enanth and Cyp, why don't more take a shot just 1x a week instead of 2x a week? I gotta admit if I could take a shot 1x every 3 weeks that would be nice.

So, what's everyone thoughts???

Technically sust for example if I remember correctly was developed to be used as little as once a month, now hell I'd never do it once a month myself but some drs still prescribe 1 or 2x inject protocols for trt cyp/sust etc.

Half life on cyp and e actually very over stated on bro science few months ago I read several actual scientific sites, med sites stating half lifes were like less than half of what bro science states.

That being said I know there are issues I've read about undec like anything, but the much longer half life I myself would use instead of cyp/sust for TRT and I have in the past when I went from blast to cruise. I don't recall exact injection protocol however but it worked and much less pinning.

This isn't one I read before but has elimination half life
How Long Does Testosterone Stay In Your System? - Mental Health Daily

estosterone enanthate: Literature suggests that the approximate elimination half-life of testosterone enanthate when administered intramuscularly is 4 days. With this information, we can estimate that it’ll take a person an average of 22 days (3.14 weeks) to clear testosterone enanthate from systemic circulation. While testosterone enanthate stays in a person’s system for longer than propionate esters, it is eliminated nearly 2-fold quicker than cypionate formats.

Testosterone cypionate: Reports document that the plasma elimination half-life of testosterone cypionate after intramuscular injection is around 8 days. This means that it’ll take slightly over a week to eliminate 50% of the exogenous testosterone from your system. Knowing this, we can estimate that it’ll take around 44 days (6.29 weeks) to have fully eliminated exogenous testosterone cypionate from your system. Testosterone cypionate is known to stay in a user’s system for a considerably longer duration than enanthate and propionate esters.

That is very interesting. Broscience always says that Cyp and Enanth are virtually the same in terms of half-life. This changes a lot and would require someone to run Enanth 2x week but one could still run Cyp 1x week and have it be effective. I know one person who runs Und. and he takes his shots 1x every 2 weeks.

I've become a less is more person and if I can take shots even less frequently while maintaining and working towards goals... then, why not?

That article is very interesting....

from experience, i feel you could get by on 1 shot a week of cyp, but not quite for enanthate

there are several, including studies etc I've read

What's crazy is for years, people have been doing things wrong. What's even worse is that the old regime don't/ won't listen to the new information. Call it being old and stubborn but that's not good.

I'm going to drop my Cyp shots to 1x week which will make things easier since I take Deca 1x week.

Interesting you mention test U. I will be adding that to my list very soon and will be cruising on it myself.
