Thanks for your input bro!! Glad the caber is making you feel great! Your deca at 200mg just make sure you don't crash prolactin. I know your going for bloods so that will be interesting to see!

Ya I know, running the caber at 0.25mg E3D. Will probably pull bloods late next week or the following week.

Interested in seeing your results!

 

[Carmel cowboy]

I'll be interested to see that. I know caber goes a long way for me.

Me to! Even at 400mg of deca I didn't need much.

Me to! Even at 400mg of deca I didn't need much.

The initial plan was to run .5mg E3D because that is what I have seen recommended. However, I then read that .5mg was an upper limit dose and that .25mg was usually more than adequate for reasonable Deca doses. How much caber did you need at 400mg Deca? Being the way I am, I will be pulling bloods as mentioned to see where things are at. I am the type to pull to many bloods than not enough. My health and well being are my #1 priority and take precedence over gains any day.

I agree bro!! I used .5mg 2xs a week then went to .25mg 1x a week with 400 mg of deca. Aromasin was at 12.5mg eod and kept my estrogen within range and test was at 500mg/wk.

How did you feel at only .25 caber only once compared to the .5 ??? Wow, that's cutting down to 1/4 dose!!

Huh, interesting. That caber must be some strong stuff. Ya, better get that blood test.

Honestly felt great!!

I have asthma too, but I haven't taken my advair I'm prescribed in over a year. Tren didn't stir up my asthma, I did notice my body has to work a little harder when doing cardio but it was fairly minor I felt. Tren didn't raise my BP much at all by itself, but the combo of tren/anadrol was the only thing so far to make my BP move much.

Interesting!! I have heard of people taking singulair with it at 10mg! Have you heard of that?

So will continue to cut for 4 more weeks after contest. Still doing the mock peak week leading into the last day of contest.

Happy Easter man! I am interested to know how you decide when to run a high carb day. Do you do them on specific workout days, like legs or chest?
