So, I've searched around a lot and can't find any good info on this thing.. Found like two threads but none was very informative.

Then i noticed there is a few on this forum that do the 5/3/1 program.

So I was hoping there was someone who could share some info on how you cycle steroids with 5/3/1?
PM if you want to be discreet of your use please..

You know, when you get off what do you do? As you your progression will halt, or even go down in weights.



Thanks=)

Being a natty I'm not going to be a great deal of help here but an idea would be to run it the same way people who are cutting often have recommended: Just run the prescribed reps, don't go for a rep max. I'm not sure how long it takes for your system to reset itself after a steroid cycle so others might have better ideas.

I'm going to suggest...
1st post-steroid cycle: just run prescribed reps from last cycle
2nd post-steroid cycle: go for rep maxes using same numbers as last cycle
3rd post steroid cycle: if the previous cycle's numbers were ok, continue program as normal, if not then reset using last cycle's maxes.

My 2c.
