    Calories while dieting on cycle??

    Right now Im 9 weeks out of comp, and Im getting about 2700 calories, 280gr protein, 280gr carbs and 46gr fat. Im not cycling now but in 2 weeks I will all the way through my competition. It will be test prop 150mg eod and winny at 50 mg eod, along with 10mg nolva ed. Should I leave my calories the same or up them a bit.

    Sorry I left out some information, Right now im leaning out nicely about 1-3 pounds a week. Im 200lbs right now. If I keep the same calories with high protein, will i add any muscle?

    I'd refrain from trying to add muscle pre-contest, that is what the off-season is for. I'd focus on making sure I keep what I have now, and shed all adipose tissue for the show.

    Ok but would you keep the calories the same or bump up the carbs a bit?

    everybody is different and it usually takes a few tight diets to dial in the best thing for you. I myself can take in 300 grams of carbs a day, eat 3500cals/day and still lose 2 lbs a week and shred. If it were myself I'd just try to stay heavy with the weights and if it takes 500 more cals a day to do so then do it ,at least until you get on your cycle.

    actually, after looking at your diet again, you may wanna up the fat intake a little bit, say 80-100 grams a day.
