TRT to Cycle Dosage Questions

[anthonyo]

First of all...

43YO
230 - 12% BF Range
Training many years
4-5 days per week currently

Been on TRT (250mg Test-E) for about a year and a half. First got hooked up by the Dr. then went to ALin about a year ago and have been doing real well with it. Natural Test was not that low, but I talked the doc into it to pop my cherry.

Ran a cycle of Test E at 500mg (with adex, eod) last year around this time for 12 weeks. Had great results and strength. Ran some Winny (50mg tabs ED) for the last couple of weeks then dropped down to TRT, but extended the Winny for 2-3 weeks more. Got really ripped and strong right at the end once the rest of the water came off I'm guessing.

OK so I am running the same Test E cycle now, just hitting week 12 and not getting the results I expected. Training harder than last year and pounding the protein? So I guess my question is when running a cycle after TRT, do I need a bigger dosage on top of the TRT levels? To get the results from a 500mg cycle do I need to jump to 750mg now since I curise at 250mg all year?

I know the board has some good experienced TRT users and appreciate your input. Thanks...

i have heard people on trt need to go slightly higher because of the reason you stated, PM OJS

bump. I'd like to hear others views on this also.

To get the results from a 500mg cycle do I need to jump to 750mg now since I curise at 250mg all year? no, but there is nothing wrong with 750mg test. if your doing everything right and not seeing the results you want at 500mg bump it up to 750. but to ask if 750mg is more like 500mg for someone who is doing 250mg on TRT, that answer is no.

im not on TRT but 500mg is a moderate dose IMO for a cycle. you will see more gains from 750.

That makes sence to jump to 750mg, but I guess I'm suprised at the minimal results on only a second cycle. Don't get me wrong I can make gaines at TRT levels, but expected more at 500mg. Now I will say that once I throw in the Winny at the end, I tend to see more results very quickly, but I'm at week 12 not at 5 or 6 as expected...

Some guys claim the same of Proverin(sp?) needed to kick the test in the ass. Any TRT guys with more cycles under the belt to chime in???
