I'm about three weeks into my little "dose finding expedition" with Tren Ace. I started out at 20 mg EOD and just bumped it up to 50 mg yesterday. That's going to be my limit for this run- I won't be pushing it any higher. The plan is to keep this going until Christmas, and then I'll switch over to a health phase. I'm running this alongside 420 test and 350 mast weekly, plus 5 mg reta, 4 iu GH, and a grain of Armour thyroid. I've also got plenty of support stuff in the mix like statins and Zetia. I'm planning to pull bloods in about a week or so to see how the 50 mg dose is actually treating me- I'm mostly interested to see what's happening with my lipids and cystatin C.
So far, I've had zero bad side effects. My blood pressure is fine and my sleep hasn't changed at all. No mood swings or anxiety either. If I had to rate night sweats on a scale of 1 to 10, they’re maybe a 1 at most.
The visual changes were obvious within the first week and they just keep coming. Since I was already pretty lean when I started, it's been easy to see the progress. Body fat is dropping at a great pace and I don't even feel like I'm suffering- though I'm sure the Reta is doing a lot of the heavy lifting on that front.
As for performance, my strength has stayed pretty solid. I’ve maybe seen a 5% dip since I started this cut, which is incredible considering I’ve dropped 40 lbs since the beginning. I'm stoked with that.
People might call me naive, but I actually believe the 90s pros when they said they only used a couple of amps of Parabolan a week. This 50 mg EOD of Ace is definitely my ceiling. Sure, I could blast more, but I doubt the extra results would be worth the side effects that would inevitably show up.
honestly sounds like you’re being way more reasonable with it than most people who touch tren
50mg eod being your ceiling is refreshing to hear- too many guys just keep pushing it
zero sleep issues on tren is wild ngl, that’s usually the first thing to go
dropping 40 lbs and only losing like 5% strength is crazy impressive
pulling bloods instead of guessing already puts you ahead of most
I kinda agree with you on the old school dosing- more isn’t always better
honestly sounds like you found a sweet spot. low-ish dose, good results, no sides is kinda the dream with tren
that’s wild you’re getting basically no sleep issues or sweats. most people don’t get that lucky even way lower
i’m with you on the old school parabolan stuff. a little goes a long way and chasing more usually just buys you problems
dropping 40 lbs and only losing like 5% strength is huge, that alone tells me you’re doing a lot right
smart move capping it where you are and actually checking bloods instead of just winging it. health phase after christmas sounds like a solid plan too
