I don't know where gman is coming from, but trust me, if you go from 250 a week (or 500 every two weeks as you are doing), to say 750 a week by doing 1 cc of sust every other day, you WILL notice a big difference.
Another 5 weeks of that and you will be able to get much more cut, as long as you take arimidex or something to keep the test from turning to estrogen.
You will lose even more water when you get off, and the cuts will really show. The cuts don't show as well when you are on test alone. Too much water...
So yes, take arimidex, maybe .25 daily, to keep the estrogen down while you are on sust.
I don't know gman or where he's getting his info, but he's just wrong. Get some more input from other sources though if you are concerned. But you can look at the top forum posts which show examples of cycles, and they show much larger levels than 250 per week... it's perfectly safe to do 750, and you will gain a lot more from it than 250. That's just the way it is.
And it's not bad to increase as you go to, because your body gets more used to test as you go. you get more receptors, so you need more.
Stopping now short of your goals doesn't make any sense, not when you could run another 5 weeks of 750 a week. That's when all the real gains would be seen.
You will want to get some hcg though, if you are running that long of a cycle. Look into that if you don't know what it is. It brings your nuts back up to size. Guy on long cycles often use it mid cycle to keep them from atrophying too much. Then at the end, while still on test, you bring them up to normal function again, and a week or so (I think with sust it's longer, because it's so long lasting in your system, look it up...), you take clomid to let your pituitary normalize LH production.
That way you keep your gains.
Please read the stickes at the top of the forum.
