My friend and I have argued about this for years. The only reason I cant seem to get my point across is that he is a national level competitior and I am not. He says all successful BB do juice 3 weeks on 4 weeks off. They also never do more than 500mg test in the off season. He says they all rely mainly on food and insulin. He says no one that is not national level should ever have to take more than 250mg test in the off season. The thing is that he is so adamant that it is hard to present facts to the contrary. He is also a superheavy!
