    fat and cycle?

    How much fat is acceptable on a cycle? Everytime I cycle I get a little heavy in the mid section. My normal bf is around 10-14%. When I cycle I think it gets up to mabey as much as 20%. Of course there is a lot of fluid retention. My ? is do you guys experience this and if so what is acceptable?

    How do you come up with 15 tops?

    Most bb will got way over that on a true bulking cycle. If you looking fo as much muscle as posible you need to eat eat and eat. So what if you cutting cycle takes 10 8 weeks no 6

    HAHAHA im with you, I cut for 2 months this summer just to make sure I could get around 5-6%, now Im fat and happy around 10. Sooooo much more energy. As for the question at hand, jumping 10% during cycle makes me think you need to clean your diet up a bit, but as long as you get it to come off at the end who gives a fuc, Im much stronger the heavier I am, even if its fat.

    Thanks guys! The measurements I had were wrong, I am 18%bf and I am eating like a horse. All carbs before 6:00pm and over 350grams protein/day. I just noticed a small tire around mid section but think now it could be water retention. I am running adex at .50mg/day. Could I up the adex to say .75mg/day and see if that removed some of the water? I am also having this thing where my nipples swell but I have no pain, sensitivity, or lump. It is just the areola looks bigger than normal. I started the adex at .25mg/day at the beginning of the cycle and when I noticed this, I uped the dose to .50mg/day. It went away for a couple of days and now it is back again.

    What are you cycling? Sounds like it must be a heavy cycle due to sides. Even when bulking I can't stand excess water retention, sometimes I need upwards of two gallons water per day to fix this.
