Should I start cutting mid cycle?

**dem_gains** · 10-31-2013, 07:21 PM

On first test E cycle currently. Halfway through week 5 up 22 pounds already.

started at 5'9.5 at 165lbs now 187lbs - started out 10% BF maybe 12% now.

tracked fat gains with skinfold capier and gained about 3.5lbs of fat. the rest will be muscle/water weight (am taking arimidex .25 EOD trying to limit that).

Was taking 500mg test 1-4
now 5-12 on 750mg

question is;

should i cut for 4 weeks with a bit of clen and then bulk for the last 4 weeks and then obviously continue bulking through PCT to retain my gains or should I keep bulking hard. Lowered my calorie intake yesterday to 3500 to try cut out fat gains completely because previous was on 4k a day. So gues I could keep bulking at that rate super clean but then again I wouldn't lose any of the fat I have gained?

thoughts?

No. Most of that is water and fat. Keep adding muscle.

3500 or 4k cals?

Impressive gains buddy.

Keep gaining, grow on cycle and cut bf after pct.

When I start getting soft, I always decrease the calories enough to harden up.

Interesting, I just use Cialis.

Cialis can do that? I thought it just midly improved vascularity. I have some on hand how should I take it. Was it 5mg morning 5mg night?

Lol. People walking around with boners saying "what? I'm on a cut."

My mind must be in the gutter and I didn't even know it.

**dem_gains** · 10-31-2013, 10:25 PM

Oh a play on the words "harden up". How joyful

Nope. Why waste what potential you have half way through the cycle by changing gears and getting half the growth.

Why not bro. If you can poke yourself 20-30 times in a few months, swallow pills and risk your health- wouldn't you want to be the same size as when you started the cycle? All the cool kids are doing it cuz they only need a couple pounds and don't want to blow up to much.... makes it obvious they're on roids
