Hi, planning to do 500mg Test Enanthate only cycle and I'm currently doing full body 3 times a week. Would that be okay to continue to train three days a week? The reason I'm asking I am an ectomorph and my tendons/joints get injured a lot if I increase weights too fast or if I go too hard on some new exercises and I heard that Test even reduces collagen synthesis. So getting injured on cycle is probably the last thing you wanna do, right? Wouldn't it then be wise for me to continue with the same 3 days a week routine and just add weights/reps progressively every week?
That's going to depend on quite a few factors.
I'm assuming you bodybuild for physique?
The Mountaindog has a great video on training natural vs enhanced.
You really want to take advantage of the faster recovery.
personally on high test, I only feel sore from a crazy workout for one day and I'm ready to rock the day after.
When I'm blasting I like to add as much volume as I can, as my body can recover more readily.
Basically you'll make gains on your cycle no matter what...
BUT
We put our bodies through hell when we cycle, IMHO it's best to push yourself to the limit to maximize the gains on cycle.
Especially since I assume this is...
A) your first cycle
B) You still PCT
You have to remember, you're going to crash your test when you PCT and lose gains, you'll want to offset all those losses, or you'll have put your body through the ringer and youll have felt like shit for months during PCT.. all for a few lbs of EXTRA muscle when ots all said and done?
Doesnt make sense to me personally, I like to crank it up to 11
I'll rest on cruise or when I'm dead
