It’s supposed to be

First cycle : stage 1 loops
Second cycle : stage 2 loops / or stage 1 loops if you want to continue with stage 1 for longer
Etc etc. you’re not supposed to do all stages in one cycle. If you want to, do it but it’s not in the official guidelines. You might have misunderstood it.

You could try

Cycle one
St1
Rest
Rest
St1

Cycle 2

Repeat from beginning

If you really like to be sure you get enough stage 1;

Just go through all the stages as guided (21 days + washout for each stage)

After that is completed:

-Do 1 21 days + washout Stage 1
-Do 1 21 days + washout Stage 4

Repeat till satisfied…

Yes I have listened stage 1 two times.Will start again with Stage 1 on Jan 1st.

Uhh I now understand.I think I’ll do one full cycle of all stages first.Then see which Stage I want to build up on.

I wrote it wrong in the first time, what i mean is if you do this repeating pattern after the full run (1,2,3,4):

Do 1 21 days + washout Stage 1
-Do 1 21 days + washout Stage 4

You get all stages constantly since stage 4 already contains 2 & 3…

And you open space with stage 1 for the other stages to come in…

@Spartan Only do one loop the first stage? Even if it’s a micro loop?

Also two days off between loops? Still a 21 day cycle correct?
