Cytomel T3

**djack99587** · 01-18-2007, 06:11 PM

can someone tell me how to start of dosing? i heard quarter of a pill then work your way up? any feedback please

***perfectbeast2001*** · 01-18-2007, 06:54 PM

what is the dosage of the pills you have. Usually they are 25mcg each. If so I would dose something like

day 1 25mcg (1 pill)
day 2 25 mcg
day 3 25mcg
day 4 50mcg (2 pills)
day 5 50mcg
day 6 50mcg
day 7 75mcg (3pills)
.......you get the idea, bump the dose by 25mcg every 4 days. I normally go up to 125mcg but that is considered high by many. Taper down in the same way (drop 25mcg every 3-4 days). Hope you are taking some AS along with the T3 or you will lose considerable muscle too.

**djack99587** · 01-18-2007, 08:15 PM

**djack99587** · 01-18-2007, 08:16 PM

bump

***perfectbeast2001*** · 01-19-2007, 03:44 AM

you should run it for as long as needed. there are a lot of myths and horror stories surrounding the use of T3, I have yet to see any of these stories to be proven. I have stayed on for months with no ill effects and many others have too. I would run during cycle and come off before pct. You do not want t3 wasting muscle during this already catabolic time after cycle.
you can expect to lose a lot of BF if your diet is 100% on point, adding clen would definately improve fat loss as these two compounds together are a potent pairing.

so what would be the dosing for a clen /t3 cycle?

Wow someone that hasn't used the stuff!!! If you DON'T tapper you get a rebound effect, you must tapper off slowly.

**Alpha-Male** · 01-20-2007, 10:46 AM

are you ****ing serious? what would make you think i've never used the stuff? and where did you get YOUR information from exactly? other people telling you that? ever go outta your way to do your own research guy? tell you what, before i post the studies proving that there is no rebound effect, i'll give you a chance to prove your case first...

dude...200 posts and your a ****in expert, that's cute...

not dissing you dude, but post count doesn't mean sh!t when it comes to actual knowledge. There are plenty of people that respond to every thread with a one word reply just get their post count up. I guess it makes them feel important to have a high post count. Again not meant as a flame toward you, im just sick of people basing others or their own knowledge on their post count or join date.

**Alpha-Male** · 01-20-2007, 11:33 AM

i agree, and i didn't reference post count in terms of knowledge, it was more about respect and clout HERE at anabolic review. feel free anytime to look over my posts...that's actually why my count isnt as high as some, because i dont usually do the "one-liners"...in this instance, i did it cuz i've had this debate a million times and it seems that people are still hanging on to this "taper" rule, and it's just not true. they say it cuz theyve heard/read someone else say it, without ever taking the time to research it...well i have, and ive seen plenty of studies where, after long periods of therapy, patients recovered natural thyroid production within a few weeks of cessation of treatment...hell, go to the profile section, and find the abstracts to the studies referenced in the cytomel profile...it's a good start, but there's plenty more out there...

Well a man that thinks posts are what make you an expert, really smart guy I see you have a lot of posts. I've been on the board since 2002, and only 200 posts, guess i'm not too smart after all. Ok, enough of the stupidity of how many posts make you smart or not.

It has been MY EXPERIENCE that if you do NOT tapper off T3's you will get a rebound from them. Your thyroid is NOT functioning when you quit taking the stuff and can take sometimes months to fully recover! Are you going to try and tell me that during this time you are NOT GOING to put weight back on? I can tell you there are a 100 or more guys on this forum that have used this stuff before and agree with me.

I did a lot of research on this before I ever used it and more so before my wife used it. We took her off the stuff too fast and she put the weight right back on. We live in Canada, blooding testing and what have you is done free here. She went to the Dr. 2 weeks after she was off the T3's and he said she was had an hypoactive thyroid. After she had told him what she had done, he said to come back in a couple of months and test it again. When she did that, it was back to normal.

http://jcem.endojournals.org/cgi/con...stract/41/1/70

these are just two...and normal levels were attained within approx 22 days or so...either way, adhering to a strict, strict diet during this time should alleviate any "rebound" effects...

and just so we're clear, i clarified my "post" comment...you immediately "attacked" me, since i didn't elaborate on my post (which is fine i suppose)...so from here on out, if you see me post something, rest assured i have done enough research to back up my claims...

**Kevan** · 01-20-2007, 12:22 PM

Ok, I admit i shouldn't have commented on your one liner. But I still say you are wrong, don't care what journals you quote. I know you experience reboud affects from experience and wifes blood tests. How much more sure can I be!!! You can dig around and research all you want on these boards, doesn't mean you are going to get the correct information. I also think it has a lot to do with the amount of T3 you use. If you are only using 50mcg then i'm sure there is little rebound. But if you are using 150mcg for like a month, I promise you, there is a rebound affect !! So from here on out, if you see me post something, rest assured i have done enough research to back up my claims...

**Alpha-Male** · 01-20-2007, 12:32 PM

150mcg? seriously? did you measure the amount of muscle your wife lost also? and i'm sorry, those posts arent from forums, they're from medical studies, you know, actual scientific proof to back up claims...i'm sorry, just cuz your wife isnt dedicated enough to keep up the cardio and diet to avoid any "rebound" effect, doesn't mean the rest of the world lacks the discipline...do you even know how to properly use t3? funny, i bet i can use 50mcg and see better overall gains/results than someone using 150mcg...

and in the future, if you're merely going to use you and your wife's "experiences" to support your claims, then i'll make sure i'm on standby to swoop in and save some newbie from your moronic advice...

**Kevan** · 01-20-2007, 01:05 PM

lol, yeah actual medical proof, we all know how good that is. We would all be dead from roid rage , or burned up from DNP if your so called scientifice proof was worth much of anything!!! I can tell you are a highly educated person that can't have a resonable discussion with out becoming a snot nosed little kid! I am sure you can quote and feel good about giving information you have read, but NEVER experienced ... good job. We already have a few thousand snot nosed guys like you on the board.

**Alpha-Male** · 01-20-2007, 01:23 PM

snot nosed? wow, you know, none of these "crazy, insane" medical studies ever say that roids will kill you, in fact, they say quite the opposite. they are full of mds who've gone the extra mile to actually debunk those myths...damn, is old age eroding your brain dude? maybe we should use you as a case study that steroids might possibly make you retarted after 20 years of usage (j/k), but still, i've got 13 years under my belt, and the fact that i'm able to comingle between real world use and proven science gives me a fairly good assessment on matters...and what is this "we" shit? you got a mouse in your pocket? i'm 31 guy, and i've got just as much experience as you...you know, your small post numbers and the fact that you've been a member here since '02, says to me that you merely pop in here every now and then to ask a few questions about whatever little puta cycle you might be running...eh, i've wasted enough time bickering with you, you ole crotchety thing you...

heh, go post this shit in the profile section...doesn't matter which one, pick...tell the author what you think about the many references he uses to back up his claims...i've concluded that you're an idiot...

I think it is you that has proven to be the idiot here! All this over you should tapper off T3 or not. And you are wrong, you should tapper off it. But you will not admit your wrong so i can't be bothered with you. Some information for those who are interested in using T3.

all this from someoe who's never used it...i never taper and i never have "rebound" effects...i'll man up and elaborate even more on my comment...if you're thinking of going as high as 150mcg, which is completely unnecessary, then sure, as you've managed to eradicate a good amount of muscle, go ahead and taper off...but for those, like me, who have managed to maximize the benefits of this drug, at much, MUCH smaller and reasonable doses, there's no need to taper...go ahead and use that much t3 guy, and watch that massive 170lb frame of yours fade away...

**Kevan** · 01-20-2007, 02:06 PM

Clen/T3 Cutting Cycle... from our own board here, tell him he is wrong and that he is an idiot !!

**Alpha-Male** · 01-20-2007, 02:09 PM

here's a quote from that thread genius...

"I've also been told tapering is not necessary
at all with T3 from someone that dealt with a endocrinologist, so
there are a number of different takes on this"

i guess you'll tell me that an endo doesnt know shit either, hmm?

**Alpha-Male** · 01-20-2007, 02:13 PM

that thread is about three years old also, and you obviously missed the part about how much muslce he lost, at such high doses...

bottom line is, there's really no need to go that high, to maximize the benefits of t3, period. and in keeping your doses lower, you won't need to taper...dude, why dont you take your AARP card and go see a dr., have him tell you what's what, oh, that's right, 13 years of school/study don't mean shit to you, right?

**darkseed** · 01-15-2008, 09:56 AM
