when does the heavy eating need to be started on test E cycle??

**johnnymctrance** · 01-10-2013, 07:26 AM

Hi,

Starting a Test Enanthate cycle soon... 250mg/ x 2 times per week for 10 weeks...

Im am aware that it takes a few weeks to kick in...

My question is...

Should i be eating really heavily from day 1 of pinning or start after lets say 2 weeks???

I dont want to be filling my face, putting on fat when my body doesnt nescessarily need that extra amonut of calories!

Thanks in advance

Yes. You should even be heavily eating before if you are trying to gain. Eat. Food is more anabolic than that test E.

Ah i know that, I am eating heavily enough at the moment... but obviously Kcal intake will need to increase while juicing, im just wondering about letting it be nearer to kicking in or starting eating like a maniac when from your very first pinning???

Start eating clean from the start. No fatty foods.

The "heavy eating" should be started for several years before the cycle is attempted. and then increased based on the new LBM during and after cycle. Then the "diet" should be continued permanently to retain muscle mass.

You have to constantly monitor your fat levels and then adjust calories based on that.

Test E will have kicked in right from your first injection, so you are "on". You might not have an appreciable "bodybuilding" Test level for a few weeks, but there is more test in your system now, however little.

Don't call it "heavy eating". It makes you sound like someone who shouldn't be juicing.

I was just using the phrase 'heavy eating' for descriptive purposes, i know I should be 'consuming' alot of kcals...lol

Not too sure about this statement 'healthy fats' are essential on cycle or not

Im in my 10th week of test e cycle. Ive gained 18lbs in 2 months and Im leaner. It's taken me some time to dial in my eating correctly. I eat clean, very clean and have through out. In terms of hunger my appetite was colossal from the ist week. Now, I eat the same foods for breaky every day, lunch is similar and dinner has 5-6 changes. I eat every 2-3 hours and finish with a shake before bed. Good luck

What you have just said doesn't mean much 'I eat clean' is a statement everybody uses until they break their diet down into calories and macros.

Gaining 18lbs and dropping BF% and in your 10th week tells me your diet must be very good so well done on that. I would still ask you to head over to the nutrition section and get your diet critiqued especially since you will be heading into pct soon where your diet will really matter if you want to keep your gains Good Luck

I dont think you could be leaner in 2 months by eating more and up that much. You would have had to gained some fat as well if its that fast.

I would head over to the Nutrition Section and post my diet for those guys and gals to have a look at. If anythings off, they'll tweak it and get you on the right track.
