hey guys so im planning out my next run and i'm wondering if i actually need to be running a full 500mg test base if im using dbol alongside it. i see people saying you need a high base to keep things balanced but then other people say its overkill and just leads to way more water retention and estrogen issues.
is it possible to run a lower test dose- maybe like a cruise dose or just slightly above- while the dbol does the heavy lifting for the gains? just dont want to blow up like a balloon or have to deal with crazy sides if i dont have to but i also dont want to mess up the cycle or feel like crap because my ratios are off. what have you guys found works best when your mixing the two?
feels like there’s a million opinions on this and none of them agree lol
ballooning up from water is always the part people forget to mention
ratios matter but so does not wrecking yourself with sides
internet loves pushing high test for everything tbh
smart to even be thinking about how you’ll feel instead of just chasing scale weight
dbol already does a lot on its own so i get questioning the need for sky high test
water retention + estrogen sides can sneak up fast if you’re not careful
lower test sounds appealing if the goal is staying functional and not puffy
everyone swears their way is the only way which makes it harder lol
definitely one of those cycles where dialing things in matters more than max dosing
