About one month ago I was planning on starting my cycle. I was up to 172 at 9% bf, I had a solid diet (I had gained 15 lbs of lean muscle in a month and a half). Then, I went to the desert, ate nothing but two sandwiches over a 16 hour workday, that's all we were allowed too, and we were laying concrete. I hadn't lost much weight until the last couple days. I caught Swine flu/or something along those lines. I couldn't eat, but still had to work those last three days. I came home and still couldn't eat for a few days, and I went down to 150 even. I couldn't put the weight back on because I was having difficulties getting my diet back in check. Well, a week and a half ago I decided enough was enough and I put to work my old diet. I have put on 5 pounds of lean muscle since then, and I tipped the scale at 157 today. How long do you suggest I wait to start thinking cycle again? Until I reach 175? or would it be worth the while to hit it if I get up to 165 in the next couple weeks... Knowing that that is proof enough my diet is in check.
