Testosterone and bf

**bodybuilder** · 10-07-2010, 01:39 PM

Question for the experienced. Do you guys experience body fat increase or decrees on a test only cycle? Lets just say i start my cycle of test e only at 15%bf. diet on check, cardio threw-out cycle. Would i be expected to gain bf or loss bf.

Diet and cardio will be the most determining factors not just the drug it self. You over eat expect fat along with muscle gain (provided protein intake is adequate); you under eat expect maybe nothing; you eat correctly you could gain muscle and lose body fat or you could hold on to muscle and just lose body fat. Many ways to go about it and with the little info you provide no one could tell you.

Well i asked the question because I'm currently at 15% Bf. I don't wanna gain anymore fat during my cycle i have been preparing for my first test cycle, went from 18%-15%bf. Just wondering if i should drop some more bf thats all.

Being 15% bf tells me nothing... What will be your outlined diet, cardio, and training routine. Is it going to be the same as MBMETC?

But maybe this will answer your questions better: http://forums.steroid.com/showthread...ffects-Bodyfat

In case you are still wondering reed her are my stats.

Height:5'10

DIET:300g protin, 190g carbs, 75g fat.

I work out 6 days a week and do cardio 4 times a week for about 30-45min.
My goal is to get lean and add some muscle. Id rather look like rambo then jay lol.

I felt leaner than usual when I was running test e at 500 mg a week and also more vascular. I was also eating a little more than normal.

Quid pro quo - decreases.

Your diet will determine the fat you put on during a cycle.

**Bonaparte** · 10-08-2010, 06:23 AM

Unless you overeat in an attempt to bulk, it should decrease (but I also use an AI and never get all bloated). I tend to eat a bit over maintenance on cycle (maybe 500 cals over), so I gain some muscle and lose a bit of fat. If I were to eat 1000 over, I would probably put on a bit more mass, but I'd likely add some fat as well.

I am trying to add lbm while trying to drop 1-2% bf i am eating more protien and stepping up the cario. last time i weighed my self i was up 8lbs and down .5 a notch on my belt, starting 5th week monday

**40plusnewbie** · 10-08-2010, 08:26 AM

Also, maybe this is just a coincidence but I've been on several compounds for about a month or more and added in 500mg of test cyp (was not taking any test before). my weight was steadily gaining until yesterday when I lost a lb despite 2 intense workouts at the gym and noticeable muscle growth, and then like 2 lbs this monring wiht again 2 intense workouts yesterday. I wonder if it's related to the test. I'm not doing any cardio. I am on var and ghrp-2 and cjc which could be contributing factors but I was on these before the test and my lbm/weight was rising, not falling.
