Deload/Strategic Deconditioning Before Cycle? was created by Devildriver
So my last thread seems to have died, I'd like to get some input regarding this asap as I'm planning on starting my first Test Cyp/Dbol cycle on Monday morning:
I've been using the same Power/Hypertrophy routine for the past few months now with maybe 3 days off (not counting scheduled rest days) in total over the whole period. I've been reading up on the advantages of deloading and Strategic Deconditioning and was wondering what your thoughts would be on possibly delaying my cycle for a few weeks and doing a 1-2 week deload (or Strategic Deconditioning) to prime my muscles for(hopefully) some extra growth during my cycle. Or will this just be a waste of time?
I can't seem to find anything on the net addressing whether something like this would be beneficial for an AAS cycle, possibly because the drugs would give my training a massive kick in the ass anyway...

A deload week after 3 months of solid training is never a bad idea whatever the circumstances. A lot of well thought out training methods have built in deloads every 4-6 weeks depending on various parameters.
Rather go into a cycle fresh and make use of the gear in a completely fresh state than in a potentially fatigued state. Remember deload doesnt mean do nothing, it means deload. Use 50-60% of your normal weights, use stuff like neural charge workouts to keep the CNS lively and enjoy the easier week.
