testosterone cypionate cycle completion

Post by miller1089 »

this shit sucks, yeah its used for hormone replacement therapy in older men, but aside from MASSIVE strength gains i didnt gain any weight. total waste of hard earned money. dont ever consider using, theyre a painful waste of time and money. stupid move on part so, no need for harsh words.

it's a hormone replacer, not booster...even then boosting T through supp isn't the best way to go anyway...raising it naturally so it stays raised is the key through heavy training, diet and rest

and more importantly monitoring and decreasing cortisol release

Agreed. I'll say this because you need to be aware, not to lecture you, but you should ALWAYS find out about any supplements, Prohormones etc etc, before you use them. Really do the research and use ONLY internet info, quantified as from independant sources, never sites selling the stuff, linking to other sites with discounts, or sites, where people tell you it's given them big gains, as you aren't that guy, and he isn't you.

Also sites who sell stuff may neglect to mention minor downsides on purpose, because if a supplement occasionally causes headaches or mild drowsiness in a small percentage for example, why state it, and scare half your potential buyers off it. You might be forced to state side effects like misscarriage, not for use in people wiht Pacemakers etc etc, to avoid a Fat lawsuit.

So indpendant information / reviews always for research, it's a MUST.

Also, never take any supplement,s hormones etc etc, becasue some guy on the internet likes it, your mates use it, some guy in a gym uses it, Tiger Woods uses it, Shaq O'neill uses it, or any one else in the entire world uses it.

You MUST make sure it's really what you want, and consider your personal, financial and physical circumstances, before using anything that has physiological effects on you, and isn't classed as food.

If you cause yourself physical harm from not taking adequate safeguards beforehand, you can't blame a single person but yourself. Some guy who told you it's "da bomb" for example, isn't to blame, you made the choice, he never forced it down your throat.

I'm not saying this to give you some whoopass, I'm telling you because if you don't fully rationalise the sort of stuff I'm telling you, and employ the right mental processes in the decision making process, you could make the same mistake again, and next time, what you take may not just be a bit crap, and a slight waste of money, it could be possibly life threatening, or leave you with permanent physical damage, or at least maybe a long hard road to recovery.

first off, you can bet your arse i checked every viable source for info everywhere before i did anything, second i thought about what i was doing even after i had purchased it for 2 weeks before i began the cycle.

it wasnt that expensive and was actually a presciption i had gotten from a doctor, although it seemed slightly illegal, so i was given precise direcrtions on use and side effects.

Just curious why the doctor prescribed it. Was it for a specific condition, as some Steroids are given for medical reasons?

Not saying the Doctor was a don't ask, question back street kind of guy, but I have heard of such people.
