End of cycle ester switch?

[alphalife]

Anyone ever switch from TestC or TestE to Test Prop at the end of a cycle (i.e. last two weeks)? Invariably, if I am using a long acting ester, aren't I effectively tapering those last two weeks after the last pin? And don't I want to avoid that? Isn't the whole idea with hormones to promote stable levels? Also, for example, in my current cycle, I'm running Var and Winny as well so wouldn't running those alone or at reduced test levels actually be bad at the end of my cycle? Won't my libido bomb?

Stable levels really applies to the bulk of your cycle. Levels are going to climb in the beginning and drop at the end, obviously. Prop finisher can make timimg pct a little easier. As for orals just drop with last pin regardless of ester.

So, no roll out for another 7-10 days with the Var while the test e dissipates?

You could for sure with such a short half-life. Really just preference. I like to drop long esters 1 month before pct and then drop the short esters/half-lifes with the test e at 2 weeks.

This is good info. That sounds like a hard last two weeks before starting PCT. Why exactly do you do that if you know the esters' half life within a few days at most?

Simplicity's sake. As I said it really just preference, this is how I've decided to run any cycle. It's all got to stop eventually and this way a bunch of compounds aren't vacating the system at the same time (since test will naturally taper after most everything else clears).

I don't see any point in this personally unless before getting on stage or something, let the ester clear out on its own then start PCT

You will self taper off no matter what ester you use. If you wanted to not have to deal with that you'd have to use suspension or something without an ester. There's nothing wrong with letting esters clear. Its actually better than just going from 10 times normal hormone levels to nothing at all (shutdown). A slow gradual decrease of exogenous test with a transition into recovering your natty levels is the smoothest way to do it

I do this on occasion depending on length of cycle

 

[alphalife]

That makes sense Rick

yes you can use test prop at the end to get into pct quicker .

Don't taper. There's no reason to do that. Same dose every time. No reason to switch esters either IMO

I like using short esters personally so I've never done it that way, but seems like it would make PCT smoother

^ this is what I'm getting at
