Ignoring ester weight, 700mg per week is 700mg per week. Testosterone is not active until the ester is cleaved - at which point it has a serum half life of a couple hours. Testosterone enanthate becomes testerone base before it binds to an AR receptor.
Test-e is more fat soluble than testosterone base. There are also lipase and aromatase enzymes in fat cells. That could mean the 1000s of milligrams of test-e youre injecting is sitting dissolved in your fat and is slowly being turning into active testosterone in your fat (some of which then turns into estrogen in the very same adipose tissue before it can circulate and have an effect as testosterone). Testosterone base is less lipid soluble so less of it will dissolve into your adipose tissue.
If testosterone enanthate exerted an anabolic effect for the entire two weeks it stayed in your system it would be much much stronger than testosterone base. But the enanthate just sits there and is released at a steady (hopefully) rate through lipase activity.
You don't think longer esters have a stacking effect? When your say 10 weeks in your test will be higher and as a result e2 is likely gonna be higher due to the higher aromatization (compared to a cycle of test p eod injs for example). 700mg test is 700mg test in a general sense but excluding ester attached you don't think the dosing frequency makes a difference either? The dosing frequency imo can effect numerous processes and just the general feel of a cycle.
The obvious difference in cycles is also guys just do 500mg test p per week or 500mg test e per week. I don't know anyone who calculates ester weight and deducts it. So 500mg test p will always be more test per mg than longer esters. That is all basic stuff as you know but accounts for the difference in most peoples feel on a cycle (they are using more test). That's why most think shorter esters are stronger as they are doing different amounts thinking they are the same.
You don't think dosing frequency will effect aromatization? The body definitely reacts differently to one massive shot of test as opposed to 7 daily smaller injs. I think this is all abit silly though as differences are minor. Sure esters are only there to effect the steroids water solubility (increase fat solubility). You are spot on about test being inactive when esterification takes place. It's only active once it hits the blood. As you say 700mg test is 700mg test.
I can see what you are getting with everything (and agree) but I think your way overthinking things. I think everyone should just experiment and find what they like most. Fact is there isn't much difference with the different esters in regards to results. It's just finding what fits you best imo. Most guys I know who have started using short or esterless gear prefer it. You do feel more of a boost... but they obviously have to be run everyday that's brings about the con for most users. I think rotating or combining both is usually the best way. I see suspensions are in now and seem to be getting more and more popular. I personally like the convenience of longer esters but will be starting a short blast soon comprising of test p, tren a and npp
