A looming question for many who use anabolics is…
Do I Need A Testosterone Base?
The answer is both simple and complicated at the same time… Yes and No! LOL. I know what you’re thinking… that didn’t help much, so allow me to elaborate further…
The answer as to if you need a testosterone base in your anabolic cycle lies on the cycle itself, and on you personally. The things that need to be considered are mainly the exact compounds you are planning on running, and if you are on TRT. Those will be the main considerations, but there can be others… so beware!
While there are a few compounds which can be run without a “test base”… I would have to say that most will greatly benefit from adding testosterone.
Bear in mind, for those of you reading this who do not like injections, there are oral options available… best of which is Testosterone Undecanoate. Don’t go for 4-Andro as many of the Sarms sellers will try to sell you on. It is harsher on the liver, and with only about 15% conversion to testosterone… it’s really not very effective. Real Testosterone Undecanoate is both extremely mild to the liver (so much so it is recommended for ongoing TRT), but it is REAL test and is far more effective! Contact us if needed.
Some of the main compounds that will almost always require a test base are the nandrolones such as: Deca-durabolin, Trenbolone, Trestolone (MENT), NPP. This list is by no means indicative of the only compounds that should use a test base… the list goes on, but. much depends on the individual products being used, and the entirety of the stack you are planning as a whole.
There are many variables to consider when planning a cycle, and whether or not you should incorporate a testosterone base into your cycle can be complicated, so the best advice I can give to you is to seek out help from a highly experienced person when making these decisions. And please, please, please don’t take advice (on anything) from guys on most anabolic forums and FB groups. Many of the guys on these groups and forums, even if they are well meaning, simply do not have the experience needed to guide you properly. Many of them are either trying to sell you something, or are simply regurgitating the same old bro-science BS they have read or been told… often times it is really bad information that can hurt you instead of help you!
Seen this a million times.
Remember, just because you read it in print does not make it so! There is literally endless opinions and tons of misinformation out there which has been propagated over and over until the masses, even some of the guys you think you should be able to trust believes it… unfortunate but true. So, don’t fall prey to misinformation. Seek out advice from only highly experienced persons you KNOW you can trust.
Another mistake guys often make is taking “steroid” advice from guys at a Sarms group…
Not smart!
I’ve personally seen many guys on sarms groups who think they know what they are talking about… but unfortunately don’t. But these same guys who don’t even really know about the Sarms they peddle want to give advice on steroids too, a subject that they also know little to nothing about as well. Not good. Now imagine some unwitting guy (a newbie) comes along and takes their bad advice at face value and they then plan their cycle with this bad info as the root of everything… this can spell disaster. Unfortunately, I’ve seen many guys mess up their body and health this way!
Don’t allow this to happen to you!
I recommend avoiding the groups and forums like the plague if you want sound advice and help. You’d be much better off taking advice from a nut in an asylum in most cases! LOL. Actually, in all seriousness, it’s not a laughing matter. The only real way to know you are doing things right is to read real science backed clinical data (if you understand what you’re reading) from accredited science and research organizations and facilities. This is really the only way to get accurate data and information you can count on!
Or seek out help from a trusted and experienced person, if you know one. But it’s often hard to know who that person really is!
At the end of the day, you didn’t read this article for my lame attempt at humorous anecdotes.. or to hear me bitch about bad info and the people who spew it… so, to cut to the chase, if you need help determining what you need and what would best benefit you in your cycle…
I will be happy to help you!
