How to cycle up for a bench max at a power lifting comp?

TJ Cline · 08-22-2005, 12:37 PM

I will be doing 2 cycles, 8-9 weeks of 400-500mg test and 450 deca. I will take off 12-14 weeks between cycles.
I plan to be 250+ at 10% body fat after this ( doing 405 for sets of 8), and then want to cycle for a power lifting ( bench only ) comp.
I was thinking of doing this.
1-10 Test 500mg
1-4 EQ 600mg
5-9 Deca 600mg
7-10 Anadrol 100mg ED
6-10 tren 76mg EOD

I did something like this 4 years ago and put another 40lbs on my bench....
and that was after doing the same test deca 8 week cycles listed above.
Bench went from 385 for sets of 8/8/6 to 405 for sets of 12/10/8.

Only tested meets. It's just like bodybuilding.

If you are only going to run the EQ for 4 weeks then forget it. EQ needs to be run long and hard. At that dose, I would say you need it for at least 10 weeks.

Would you use EQ or Deca for the entire cycle......?

I have no experience with deca, but ran EQ for 11 weeks at 600mg/week. It's known more for it's vascularity than it is for strength gains, but I liked it when stacked with 500mg/week of test e.

EQ is extremely week for strength gains, but I have heard it give minor results over a gram - still nothing like tren. I'd choose it over deca unless joint pains are in your future. I liked EQ and would like to run it again soon, but its no tren.

Mudge what did you like about EQ? I know you love tren for its strength increases but does tren help with anything else?

Sure, tren is like super EQ.
