[QUOTE="mairomaster, post: 177999, member: 40343"] [USER=843]@Vince[/USER] Sustanon is a mix of 4 esters as you know, I'm sure. Here is a list of their half-lifes: Propionate 2d (30 mg/ml) Phenylpropionate 2.5d (60 mg/ml) Isocaproate 4.5 (60 mg/ml) Decanoate 7d (100 mg/ml) I couldn't find many sources about the half-life of Testosterone Decanoate, but even if it's longer than 7 days it won't be much longer I guess. I used the following calculator to estimate the blood saturation of Sustanon, while admitted 3 times a week as in my case: [URL unfurl="true"]https://roidcalc.powerbody.ru/[/URL] I've attached a screenshot. You can see that it takes about 5 weeks to achieve relative saturation (~95% of the final level). However, to achieve saturation faster, during the first week I injected 200 mg instead of 150 mg. That brings the levels up quite a bit quicker. That is demonstrated on my second screenshot. The saturation in this case is reached in only 2 weeks. Even if those estimations are not quite right and we take some uncertainty into account, I am pretty sure that I will get fairly close to saturation with this method in 4 weeks time.
