    Cytomel T4

    I just got the Cytomel T4 I ordered a while back and I was wondering if anyone has ever taken this. If so could you tell me what a good cycle would be and what kind of results you saw. I am 295 pounds right now and want to do a 4 week cycle but I am not sure how I should do it. Anyone that has info on this or experience with it please post. Thanks

    to start with cytomel is the name for synthetic t3. synthetic t4 is called synthroid . you need to establish which you have 1st because they are very different in terms of what results you can expect. i have personally run both. t3 is much stronger and much more effective. i have personally not seen great results with t4 but you can stack either with clen for a stronger effect. either way if your not using any aas at the same time it can be catabolic causing muscle loss. add some test in there to help prevent this. i personally do t3 in 4 week cycles as part of a longer aas one or t4 in 10 week cycles, t3 has given some great results but is totally dependant on your diet and training regime. post some further details on these

    thanks for the quick response King. I currently have the T4 version of Cytomel . I have never taken any kind of supplement besides Creatine and Andro. I am very very new to this so anything you can tell me would be great. I know what Clen is but I was hoping the Cytomel would be enough for this cut. I could very wrong here and if so please let me know. My goals are pretty cut and dry. I am 295lbs right now with a very strong base under this fat. I was a D1 football player so I am strong but I have flabby body right now from the fat I have put on. I want to drop the fat to cut a little deffinition in my body. I know most of the people on this site are extremly strong and extremly cut but thats not what I am going for. I would really just like to drop 30-40lbs to better show the muscle I have underneath this coat of fat. I have also heard rumors of Clen hardening heart vessle muscles is this true?

    well what you have heard about clen hardening the surrounding heart muscles is true of a study that was carried out on mice.out of the thousands of people using clen i don't believe anyone has ever had serious problems with it.t4 is a good place to start for cutting, because it is a lot weaker than t3 and doesn't effect the bodies natural thyroid output as much it can be run at higher doses and for longer periods. i would say not to go higher than 200mcgs per day but start much lower and work up to that.if you have the 100mcg pills split them and take in 2 halfs daily and move up to 150 and then 200mcgs over a couple of weeks. run for 8-10 weeks with a high protein diet which will help prevent muscle loss and try doing cardio 1st thing on a morning on an empty stomach. you could easily loose 10-15 pounds of fat if everything is in check maybe more. it's a hard thing to forecast because everyone has different metabolisms etc

    No you don't. Cytomel is T3. Synthroid is T4. Two different drugs. They do the same thing, sort of. But one is much stronger than the other.

    hey decon, the cycle looks good bro, you are increasing the dosages just right. you can go up to 200mcgs with synthroid but as its your 1st cycle i'd say 100mcgs daily will be fine. if you find you get any headaches during this cycle don't worry as it's normal. if they are bad just increase the dosages slower at your own rate.for your next cycle you might want to try ephedrine. i think it would be better for you as you already have a large frame and ephedrine helps curve the appetite so it's sometimes helpfull to keep your diet clean as your not always craving for things and eating crap

    He King thanks again for the response. I have another question for you guys. If my subject engages in the use of marijuana. Will this effect my experiment at all?

    is it possible to get T4 called cytomel cos my guy has a web site and it lists cytomel as T4 which always confused me

    i always assumed it was a mistake, but now i'm hearing people talking about a T4 version of Cytomel??

    I think we are probably looking at the same website. At least on the one that I am reading from it says that T4 is just a nickname for it. It's actually called synthroid but it's the same thing.

    cytomel is just the brand name for the synthetic thyroid hormones made by the main pharmacy that produces them. I've heard about cytomel t3 and t4 before but obviously its the chemical name thats important and it should state this on the packaging. if it is t4 that you have it should say levothyroxine sodium so you know you have the right one
