it really depends on your goals...frontloading will cost a bit more because you need the extra gear for the load IN ADDITION to you planned cycle. So, if you are in a hurry for gains, and have the money, I guess its worth it. I've tried frontloading starting on the first day of a cycle, as well as starting the loading 2 weeks out from my "official" first day of a planned cycle. It does work really well, especially psychologically, because you'll start to see results withing a few weeks instead of waiting say 6-7 weeks to really see it. As far as AAS and dose, I like prop at 150mg/day or higher.
