I think mon-wed-fri for 21 days is not the play for me.
I feel more exhausted and out of it on rest days lately, even though I’m doing less work overall.
Not confirmed, but this feels very similar to the subtle overexposure symptoms I usually felt back then before i used 9 on 4 off 9 on 4 off.
The only way to find out is to get more data.
I’ll use it again the next cycle and compare how I feel near the end of the cycle.
By then I’ll have a better idea about whether it’s caused by the schedule or other factors.
The 2 rest days on the weekends might not be enough for me.
I need at least 3 to 4 consecutive rest days in the middle of the cycle.
Or, I should stop before day 15. I found that I only feel the symptoms if I go over it.
I’m fine with recon like the one from DRR2, but anything that risks lethargy is a no.
That goes against my main goal of using subs.
Nevermind, experimentation is not worth it right now. I gotta focus.
I’ll just go back to the tried & tested 9 on 4 off 9 on 4 off. though i want to try 3 & 5 instead of 4 & 4.
Update 1:
Yep, this is the familiar subtle overexposure symptom that usually shows up near the end of a cycle.
It feels exactly like every single one i’ve felt in the past.
Mon-wed-fri is not cutting it.
I need longer rest days in the middle.
I’ll start the washout early (this is the 20th day) and try 11 on 4 off 9 on 4 off next cycle.
I’ve been wanting to try 11 on 4 off for a long time. This is a good opportunity to test it out.
