I blast and cruise, never go off completely. I do 200 mg test a wk on cruises, and usually 200 mg eq also. I do the eq at the low dose because its just enough to help my joints and i think it helps my appetite a little at that dose. I have bloodwork done every 2 or 3 months, and am fine, unless i used an oral, then my liver values go up a little, but they drop after a few weeks off. I wouldn't stay on my blast protocol for long peroids of time, just my opinion

Do you have your RBC checked. WHen using EQ and Test or any AAS for long peroids you can have issues with your red blood cells getting high. This can be a big problem for some people and they are forced to donate blood every now and then. This happens to a good friend of mine every 8 months or so. Personally I have stayed on for 18 wks for a blast.

Are there any symptoms to look for that indicate high RBC's rather than just high blood pressure? I don't think it'll be an issue at 250mg test but I've heard it can for some people

As for op's question the longest I've stayed on "cycle" was about 24 weeks, though I took a 4 week break in the middle to pct. I've since decided to blast and cruise so I hopped back on and now cruise at 250mg a week.

I have the high hematocrit problem and I can tell when my RBC count is getting too high because I get a persistent slight headache in the front of my skull right above my eyes. This happens even before my blood pressure starts to increase, so I go and give blood to get it back down. My hematocrit is usually about 50% when I get those headaches. I've read a couple of other posts on other boards where guys report similar symptoms.

I cruise at 300mg year round, and then blast for 8-12 weeks followed by a 6 week break on the cruise then repeat

 

[bigdtrain]

pros blast at like 5 to 6 months

Blasting and cruising since 2001, have regular bloodwork done and take support supps religiously.

Cruise is 250mg test a week twice a week, blast is one gram plus weekly plus either deca/NPP and I'll run dbol for the first 6 weeks. Recommended, no. But it works for me.

 

[bigdtrain]

to each there own, i blast longer than by the book

For everyone cruising, do you have to take an AI? I cruise on 250 mg and still have to take some aromasin to keep levels down.

 

[BigBird]

Been blasting for 10 months and counting.....might cruise when blasting is finished.

And I don't recommend anyone to blast for this long but I assume the risk and choose to do it this way - for now at least.

Over nearly a 2 year period I took a total of 18 weeks off. The rest of the time I was on something. Right now I've been off for 5 months. When I get back to it I'll do 8 on 4 off cycling for a while. That seems to work best for me now.
