Masters, always good to see you around my good man.
Around 265 lbs right now. Been off of everything since November, crossing off days on the calendar until the next run.
I am pretty fortunate in that I don't lose a ton off cycle, but that is by choice as I keep my dosages moderate, number of compounds per cycle low, and I don't go crazy with my cals during cycle. I make it a priority to avoid radical weight fluctuations on and off cycle.
Nothing more awkward than seeing a guy you haven't seen in a couple of months, and he has gone from jacked to looking like just another dude. To each his own, but I cringe at the thought of going through that every few months. I absolutely try to avoid that roller coaster for health reasons, but also for the sake of my ego.
I feel exactly the same. You know I don't use AAS because they are illegal where I'm from but if i did I would look the same off cycle as I do on cycle for many of the reasons you stated.
Having said that it is likely a hell of a lot easier for me to do at right around 200 than it is for you at 265. Excellent work!
