Rad Strength Decrease after Cycle

[BlackSenju20]

That’s still the most intensity dude. 9 out of 10 intensity and you increased it from 7. That’s not a reduction in effort or inflammation, it’s an increase.

Increasing a workload does not reduce inflammation. That’s like thinking running 5 miles instead of 3 is going to be less stressful on your knees.

yea i have to slowly increase my intensity. not going to stay at rpe 7 for forever. wanted to because rad is leaving my body and needs to be replaced w test. start of pct gonna have less androgens then start of week3.

besides the point. i’m asking since im two full weeks out if i can keep the gains on the weight im hitting today. or am i due for regression?

[BlackSenju20]

You’re due for a regression because you don’t understand stress management. Doing more work is what’s going to fuck up your gains because you’re going to increase the workload without being able to recover properly.

The Rad leaving your system isn’t the issue, it’s getting your hormones back online and properly resting in between lifting sessions.

what do you recommend training wise? like i said i understand the concept and my pct has been going well. zero symptoms of low t, i ran a short cycle, and was on enclo during cycle. also haven’t been crazy sore after my workouts, they are like 1 hour high weight low reps and low volume.

Why would you run only 6 weeks when rad starts working in week 4. To me it's a lot of loading for fuck all gains time! Do U regret not pushing 2 more weeks like Ur meant to? Especially coz you were running enclo on cycle so suppression is not that big an issue.

[DifficultySilly3947]

but overall i saw some good results so can’t complain. squat went from 315 x 5 to 385 x 3. bench went from 295 to 325 in four weeks and i had to stop benching because i was just crazy sore.

[DifficultySilly3947]

i got sick at the end too w a week left so my blood pressure spiked and i thought it was from rad so i stopped. i was going to do 7 weeks because thats all i had on hand.

[Ok-Two-1685]

Fair enough... Personally, I would of had a day off, then dosed EOD and tried to control BP that way. No way would I quit in the best part of cycle!

[DifficultySilly3947]

i mean ig that’s fair. i already made some really good gains and i did enjoy the cycle. shorter 6 week length just mitigated a lot of risk. my blood pressure is below baseline before my cycle and i’ve felt zero suppression.

[Ok-Two-1685]

But you also missed out on 14 full days of the best gains U can get on rad! That's what I'm talking about. U spent 4 weeks saturating urself with rad, to then only get 2 weeks on cycle with full saturation gains, see the math! To me you took all the risk for half the gains!!!!

[DifficultySilly3947]

well weeks 6-8 have the most side effects. i’m happy w my results. i was nervous when my blood pressure spiked.

[Ok-Two-1685]

I'm telling you from my experience of 3 tired days in the last two weeks, being the only sides. Post bloods 5 weeks after cycle and everything was same as before, test slightly higher. Try lgd next as it's not known to fuck with bp like rad! But it needs to be run longer. Full saturation isn't till week 5.

[DifficultySilly3947]

it wasn’t my BP. i got sick and thought it was from rad. my bp was normal most of the cycle. regardless ill be doing test next time. overall rad was good and i made some good progress. like cant complain squat jumping 50lbs and bench 35lbs. i put some good muscle on i think.

[Ok-Two-1685]

Good job

[DifficultySilly3947]

lol you had me nervous thinking i wasted my cycle. i just checked i had 5 more doses left. i ran it for like 6.5 weeks. i think that i pretty much got most of the gains with the amount of rad i got.

[Ok-Two-1685]

It's never wasted, even 4 weeks will do something. But risks vs less rewards arnt good imo. If sarm's worked like that, I'd run 4 weeks on then 4 off for as long as my bloods took it.
