    Should I start cutting mid cycle?

    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.

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

    No. Read what Ashop said carefully...

    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
