00:00:00
even a tiny bit of 19 Knorr are going to
00:00:03
keep you shut down for months not just
00:00:06
you know Oh two weeks and then I can
00:00:08
start my PCT
00:00:18
sup guys Derek more place where nice
00:00:20
calm today I wanted to do a quick video
00:00:22
on the fact that is commonly overlooked
00:00:27
about suppressive compounds and the kind
00:00:32
of illogical PCT practices that have
00:00:36
been passed through the grapevine in
00:00:37
this community for years and years as
00:00:39
gospel but are in fact kind of
00:00:41
ridiculous when you actually look at it
00:00:43
further so basically in general it's
00:00:48
going to take five half-lives for a
00:00:50
compound to clear your system to a point
00:00:53
where it is not suppressing your HP ta
00:00:56
anymore and this is not even considering
00:00:58
19 nor testosterone or its derivatives
00:01:00
of that that are going to be suppressive
00:01:03
even at miniscule dosages for months on
00:01:06
end and at the end of the day the thing
00:01:09
that you know people often talk about
00:01:12
when they talk about oil time on time
00:01:14
off this that the standard kind of
00:01:17
approach that even a lot of guys that
00:01:19
are experienced will take is they'll do
00:01:21
you know like an offseason or they use
00:01:22
like pretty heavy use to try and gain as
00:01:25
much muscle as possible then they'll
00:01:26
have a contest prep where they like
00:01:28
really push the envelope and throw in
00:01:30
the DHT derivatives they throw in the
00:01:32
list they throwing than that they throw
00:01:33
out in a diuretic they throw in the
00:01:35
whatever they throw in like the kitchen
00:01:38
sink of things at themselves to achieve
00:01:40
a cosmetic dry look that would otherwise
00:01:42
not be something you know that's worth
00:01:45
pursuing in the offseason obviously
00:01:46
where you're just trying to pursue
00:01:48
contractile tissue gain so most people
00:01:51
have the highest dosages they go from
00:01:54
you know relatively moderate dosages you
00:01:57
know whatever you consider moderate I
00:01:58
guess it's going to differ
00:01:59
person-to-person but anyway offseason
00:02:01
like moderate use to starting contest
00:02:05
perhaps and it starts to it's sort of
00:02:06
getting a bit more aggressive towards
00:02:08
the end we're more hardening agents are
00:02:11
thrown in and things that increase
00:02:13
oxidative stress things that inhibit
00:02:14
estrogen receptors things that inhibit
00:02:16
aromatization things are going to
00:02:18
increase in neuro and cardiotoxins
00:02:19
things that are just going to put a
00:02:22
massive burden on your system in general
00:02:24
and then most people they're going to
00:02:26
have a three month to six month at most
00:02:30
typically sore
00:02:31
like clean-out where they stop
00:02:34
everything and then get healthy again
00:02:37
and it's like or like go natural is what
00:02:40
they would just think they were doing
00:02:41
but oftenly it's not the case the thing
00:02:44
is is when people progress typically you
00:02:46
you know if you have a guy who's not way
00:02:49
too impatient he's going to start with
00:02:51
something like testosterone only which
00:02:52
is a very common first cycle which you
00:02:55
are going to be able to start your PCT
00:02:58
within a reasonable timeframe after
00:03:01
discontinuation even if it's an athlete
00:03:03
or sipping a tester but the thing people
00:03:05
don't take into account is again five
00:03:08
half-lives before you can even introduce
00:03:11
terms that are going to make a
00:03:13
difference in terms of stimulating and
00:03:15
helping you restore your endogenous
00:03:17
testosterone production so let's just
00:03:19
say you follow the traditional bro model
00:03:21
of Utes stop your you know whatever your
00:03:24
testosterone and anthe and then two
00:03:26
weeks later you start your PCT you're
00:03:28
not going to be at a point if you were
00:03:30
just on five hundred Meg's of tests
00:03:32
where two weeks later you're ready for
00:03:34
those drugs to be introduced into your
00:03:36
system to make a difference like you
00:03:38
have to wait for the hormone to fully
00:03:41
clear at least an amount that is going
00:03:44
to not like you have to consider the
00:03:46
fact here that even small dosages of
00:03:48
steroids regardless it like if you've
00:03:50
seen those clinical studies where you're
00:03:52
having like injecting 25 to 50
00:03:54
milligrams of testosterone and people
00:03:55
are losing muscle versus the dose
00:03:58
response of 125 300 and 600 milligrams
00:04:00
those guys gain muscle the reason for
00:04:03
that is because you only produce a
00:04:05
certain amount of testosterone and even
00:04:06
if you're injecting an exogenous source
00:04:08
but it's like the same amount you
00:04:10
naturally produce or like slightly that
00:04:12
less than that you're still going to
00:04:14
shut down your HP ta so you can actually
00:04:16
end up injecting less testosterone that
00:04:18
you would have otherwise naturally
00:04:19
produced so this is why in that dose
00:04:21
response study you have people who are
00:04:23
having a negative you know response
00:04:25
muscle tissue wise to exogenous
00:04:27
testosterone use because you're going to
00:04:30
get the same level of shutdown above and
00:04:32
beyond the threshold tiny amount of
00:04:35
testosterone that shuts you down
00:04:36
regardless of what your dosages above
00:04:38
that so this is what you have to
00:04:39
consider is even until you get to that
00:04:41
amount where you've cleared enough
00:04:43
hormone on your system that it's no
00:04:44
longer
00:04:45
oppressive nothing you do PCT wise is
00:04:47
going to make a difference and you're
00:04:49
just adding layers of oxidative stress
00:04:51
to your body for no reason whatsoever so
00:04:53
you have a lot of guys starting their
00:04:54
PCT two weeks later when they're not
00:04:56
ready to so they're throwing drugs at
00:04:58
themselves and it's not helping and then
00:05:00
you know they take all I did my PCT you
00:05:02
know two weeks off then I do like a
00:05:04
three to four week PCT and then I take
00:05:07
like four weeks off and then I'm hopping
00:05:08
back on again it's like reality in
00:05:10
reality even if you just did
00:05:13
testosterone Ananth ain't only you're
00:05:15
barely in a position where you've you
00:05:17
know like actually started to recover
00:05:19
properly it's going to be a lot quicker
00:05:21
than these other you know drug
00:05:22
combinations is that people are going to
00:05:24
be doing after their first cycle which
00:05:25
I'm going to delve into now but I'm just
00:05:27
saying even in that context most people
00:05:29
aren't giving themselves an opportunity
00:05:30
to recover properly and it takes longer
00:05:33
for these hormones to clear than most
00:05:36
assume and you have to keep in mind to
00:05:38
most people aren't using short esters
00:05:39
they're using long esters which there's
00:05:42
nothing wrong with long esters but you
00:05:43
have to understand the pharmacokinetics
00:05:45
here and the fact that it's going to
00:05:47
take longer to clear your system for
00:05:49
those five half-lives to finish and for
00:05:51
you to reach a level whereby you can
00:05:53
even think about trying to enhance
00:05:56
endogenous androgen production or you
00:05:58
know support it I should say or even if
00:06:00
you weren't doing a PCT for your body to
00:06:02
you know kick-start and start doing in
00:06:05
itself which is regardless ultimately
00:06:07
what you're waiting for at the end of
00:06:08
the day so people starting their PCTs
00:06:10
within you know like 7 to 14 days it
00:06:12
just like is nonsensical in almost all
00:06:14
situations when you're using long esters
00:06:16
and then you get into the situation
00:06:18
where most guys on their second or third
00:06:20
cycle are so gonna start looking at 19
00:06:23
NORs you have guys using trend Bologna
00:06:25
in their teens now it's insane and you
00:06:27
have people using deca very early the
00:06:29
thing you have to consider with these
00:06:30
drugs is they're suppressive at dosages
00:06:33
much lower than testosterone or DHT
00:06:36
derivatives you're going to stay
00:06:37
suppressed far longer after taking deca
00:06:40
than you are
00:06:41
testosterone only so or you know
00:06:44
testosterone plus per vine or something
00:06:46
like that so if you take nandrolone too
00:06:48
can await if you actually look at the
00:06:50
charting showing the pharmacokinetics as
00:06:54
well as showing the endogenous
00:06:57
testosterone levels
00:06:58
in response to even just like one shot
00:07:01
of deca deca takes around 20 weeks to
00:07:04
even start recovering natural and
00:07:06
doggedness production and the same would
00:07:07
apply for you know like a 19 nor like
00:07:10
trend alone and that's decant away like
00:07:12
even if he have phenol propionate you're
00:07:13
still you know the the clearance time
00:07:16
between the actual ester you know sure
00:07:18
it's it's lower but the actual amount of
00:07:21
suppressive hormone in the body even a
00:07:24
tiny bit of 19 Knorr are going to keep
00:07:27
you shut down for months not just you
00:07:30
know o
00:07:30
two weeks and then I can start my PCT
00:07:32
like if you take trend bolon and ante or
00:07:35
you take nandrolone decant weight which
00:07:36
is something a lot or trainees or
00:07:39
whatever this is something a lot of
00:07:40
people do let's just go with long esters
00:07:42
assuming for now because that's you know
00:07:43
typically the approach most people take
00:07:45
let's say you take your two weeks off
00:07:47
after then you start which a lot of
00:07:49
people coming off contest perhaps are
00:07:51
gonna be heavy using trend below nor
00:07:52
people coming off their you know most
00:07:54
people are gonna bulk in the winter and
00:07:56
and cut in the summer which is often
00:07:58
going to involve either deca in the
00:08:00
winter or trend blown in the summer
00:08:02
regardless of your competing or not
00:08:04
everyone's doing this that is like like
00:08:06
hardcore about like juicing their brains
00:08:08
out right now including teens who are
00:08:10
like just getting into this and are half
00:08:11
as readily using trend bolon already
00:08:13
within like their first couple cycles
00:08:16
anyways so like once you take your you
00:08:18
know your bro science like two weeks off
00:08:20
now you're at a point where you think
00:08:21
you can start your PCT but when reality
00:08:23
your body is not even ready to start
00:08:26
it's still suppressed there's still
00:08:28
suppressive amounts of hormones in your
00:08:30
body that are not going to regardless of
00:08:32
what you do you're not going to recover
00:08:34
you can try and artificially stimulate
00:08:36
whatever you want you can throw sermons
00:08:38
at it you can do whatever you want it's
00:08:39
not going to make a difference until
00:08:41
you've allowed your body to clear the
00:08:42
hormone of your system to a point where
00:08:44
it's no longer suppressing your HP ta so
00:08:46
the fact is most people are actually
00:08:49
just blasting and cruising and thinking
00:08:51
they're cycling even if they're cycling
00:08:53
maybe you have a lot of guys that do
00:08:55
blasting crew is like pretty early now
00:08:57
that's like a very very common go-to now
00:09:00
as people are like you know what look I
00:09:02
don't want to deal with like two steps
00:09:03
forward one step back I wanted to do
00:09:04
three steps forward like every single
00:09:06
time so they'll go to like blasting and
00:09:08
cruising at like 20 21 years old now
00:09:10
which you know
00:09:12
not to judge because who the [ __ ] am I
00:09:14
to judge in that scenario when you've
00:09:16
seen you know my kind of content and my
00:09:18
history and whatnot by it at the end of
00:09:21
the day and it mine wasn't as bad as
00:09:23
that but I'm just saying like you know
00:09:24
in general from an experimental context
00:09:27
like there's I've done dumb things in my
00:09:29
past which is largely why I'm talking
00:09:31
about this stuff so anyways you have
00:09:33
people are like blasting cruisin in
00:09:35
their 20s now and even if they're
00:09:38
cycling the thing is is most people who
00:09:40
were cycling no one's just doing like
00:09:41
test only really no one's really doing
00:09:43
things that are not going to suppress
00:09:45
them and even if they're doing they're
00:09:47
usually doing long Esther's and so if
00:09:49
you're using like a nineteen noir or
00:09:50
something like that and you take your
00:09:52
two weeks off and you start your PCT
00:09:54
you're not you're just like further
00:09:56
damaging your body basically because
00:09:58
you're throwing things trying to like
00:10:00
kickstart stuff that's not ready to
00:10:02
start it's not going to start like
00:10:04
whatever you do you can try and push it
00:10:06
artificially as much as you want until
00:10:08
that stuff is clear to the point where
00:10:10
it's not having that negative feedback
00:10:11
with your HP ta anymore you're not gonna
00:10:13
get the recovery so in reality most
00:10:16
people that are cycling and tell them
00:10:17
tell you they're you know being
00:10:19
responsible and like coming off the gear
00:10:21
like fully it's like they're probably
00:10:22
they're technically blasting and
00:10:24
cruising just to like a different level
00:10:26
than they you know would think because
00:10:28
they have much less hormone in their
00:10:29
system and somebody who's cruising but
00:10:32
it's still you know a same level of
00:10:34
stress to some extent whereby it's not
00:10:36
you know if you're like hyper gonadal
00:10:38
it's not a healthy thing either so
00:10:41
anyways the takeaway from all this is
00:10:43
basically just understand the
00:10:44
pharmacokinetics of whatever you're
00:10:46
gonna be using and also understand that
00:10:48
it's probably not wise to delve into 19
00:10:51
oars until you're prepared to deal with
00:10:53
the very high likelihood of lifelong HRT
00:10:57
in my opinion because these things are
00:10:58
so suppressive that I think it's pretty
00:11:00
unlikely that you're going to actually
00:11:02
restore adequate function in a timeframe
00:11:05
that would you know like most people
00:11:08
aren't going to do time on time off or
00:11:10
like time on and then wait for full
00:11:13
clear and stuff like a nandrolone to
00:11:14
can't wait or a trend below in an
00:11:16
athlete because they're gonna be
00:11:17
suppressed for so damn long that no one
00:11:20
wants to wait that long who's doing this
00:11:21
stuff for bodybuilding purposes and is
00:11:23
you know using these compounds to begin
00:11:25
with
00:11:25
so in the takeaway from that is
00:11:27
basically you know be wary of the risks
00:11:30
before you delve into very very heavily
00:11:34
suppressive compounds like that and even
00:11:37
if you're just using you know
00:11:38
testosterone and DHT derivatives that
00:11:40
aren't this harsh on it be aware of the
00:11:43
ester you're using the clearance time
00:11:45
how long it takes for five half-lives
00:11:47
and what you know what is going to be
00:11:49
residually left that could be
00:11:50
suppressing you still before you start
00:11:52
throwing drugs at your system because
00:11:53
you may just be stressing your body
00:11:55
unnecessarily for no reason or you may
00:11:57
be thinking or you're cleaning out when
00:11:59
in reality you're still in a heavily
00:12:01
compromised state just because you
00:12:03
haven't considered the fact that these
00:12:05
things are still in your system for much
00:12:07
longer than somebody would have
00:12:09
otherwise led you to believe on a forum
00:12:10
that tells you that two weeks is somehow
00:12:13
the magical predetermined time frame
00:12:15
that clears all these hormones from your
00:12:17
system to a point that are no longer
00:12:19
suppressive which is not the case so
00:12:21
take from that way you will thank you
