Kick Start

[Winnipeg Muscle]

If any, what advantages would there be to kick starting a basic Test E cycle with higher dose. I.E. if one was planing 12 weeks Test E at 500mg /week, would starting week one with 1000mg, then week 2 with 750mg, have any advantage?

Here's a repost from FOURARMS earlier today...

Opinions are mixed on frontloading, but if you want to try it its not too late. I'm not recommending either way, but this site should help you decide what's best for your situation. Go to http://www.roidcalc.com/ and play with the values until you get the ramp up in blood levels you want.

If you're running 600mg EQ /week split into 2 shots (day 1 and day 4) your blood levels won't peak (at 90-94mg/day) and level off until week 10. A frontload will bring your values up to this level in less than a week if you want to.

I'm not sure if your first shot was 600 or 300. If it was 600 and you do a second 600 shot on day 4, followed by 2 shots/week of 300mg, your blood level will peak (at 90-94mg/day) and stay level at day 4 till end of cycle. This is a pretty fast ramp up, but your decision. If your first shot was 300mg, you could make your second shot 600mg on day 4, your third shot 450mg on day 8, and all remaining shots 300mg 2/week. This would get you peaked by day 8 (at 90-94mg/day).

Just get some test-susp for the first few weeks. Trust me you will love it:)

Ive been running prop eod at the start of each cycle for a while now and run it for around 6-8 wks, seems to work fine for me

The downside of frontloading is the sudden increase can cause more dramatic sides while the slower increase seems to give your body more time to adjust. Not scientific but definitely noticeable for me.
