First Cut Cycle advice
I've always had an issue with a spare tire. The past 7 weeks of carb cycling hasn't helped it at all. I followed Marcus300's 40% lower carbs 5 days followed by a day 15% higher carbs 1 day; repeat. These were based on my maintenance calories. I may need to plan this cycle as my first cut cycle to finally lose it.
If you were me, at 233, with a lifelong spare tire. How would you plan a cut cycle to allow lean gains as well? I currently have test Cyp, Deca , hcg , Anastrozole, and prami on hand.
Maintenance cals are about 3500 and macros for that at 475 carb, 230 pro, 75 fat.
On the carb cycle though, it's 5 days @ 3400 @ 270/310/120, 1 day @ 4000 (600/230/75).
On a side note, there is the possibility of a looming random drug test at work. Doubtful they will test for AAS, but you never know.

You say you have a spare tire but your at 13% BF... We have some what the same stats I am 6'4 6'5 I weighed today at 237. I would guess my BF at 13% give or take 1%. Any way you can post a pic so we can get a est. on your BF?
I like to stay somewhat lean year around. 13% I would think is avg. if not a tad better.
AAS drug test cost a lot of money so I would't worry about that with work, or stress over it. Most don't test for them.
Are you doing any cardio? Do you feel like your having good workouts?

I can cut with what you have but here is what i would do. Save the deca and prami for a bulk later on. Up your trt dose and drop your calories by 500 below maintenance. Up your cardio or even consider fasted cardio in the am. Do this cut and loose the extra bf to prepare you for a bulk later down the road. You only have time

I have great weight sessions with reliable results doing Marcus300's HIT training since January.
My cardio is usually 20 min treadmill at 10% incline at 3mph 3 times a week. Plus I mountain bike 1-2 times a week high intensity 20-45 minutes on average.

I agree with BIO 500 is plenty. Sounds like your doing cardio and HIT. Those are both good things! I would cut cals by 500 and go from there. BIO told me about a year ago he prob doesn't even remember I posted my diet up and he told me I needed to get more greens also. So now I eat .75 cup to one cup of greens with almost every meal if I can. I can't always but I try my best.
10% incline 3mph for 20mins. That's good but damn that almost sounds like a leg workout. That's good cardio for sure. Have you tried just like a light jog or anything. Maybe change it up some. I always switch from incline walking to incline jogging to just a light flat jog.

You look good brother everything is there. I really think you should run a cut. Like I said once you strip down some bf you will be lighter but look much bigger

Looking solid man! I think you should just cut your cals like BIO said by 500 and see how it goes for 4-6 weeks. Eat clean and bust your ass off. Do cardio at the end of your workout. You will burn more cals lifting. Plus you will be stronger lifting first. If you feel like doing cardio at the end your workout wasn't good enough. You should have to make your self do it.

My last blast was 800/week, what do you recommend? Same or less? I did just start running Deca at a therapeutic dose of 150/week about 2 weeks ago and was planning to maintain to help recover injuries and ongoing knee pains. Kel said he does this with his TRT ongoing and I like that idea.

Hey guys,
I am completely open to other AAS I don't currently have if you think those would be more promising in my first cut stack.
So far, I'm gathering that I should just run a blast, lower than my last (800/week), and run at a 500 calorie deficit from my current, for about 6 weeks.
So, is this just a 6-8 week cut cycle then? Then off the same time and then hit a bulk cycle without the spare tire?
I would be running Deca at a therapeutic dose of 150/week for now on, with trt or cycle....obviously, on a bulk, I would increase that dose.

Okay, so 12 weeks at a 500 calorie daily negative. Any AAS or just a blast? Weekly cheat meals to throw metabolism off?
Anything else?

My Meal Plan (fasted cardio?)
That's awesome. I don't believe I have ever been below 13%...probably even came into this world with at least that
Mind approving of my meal plan for this, or disapproving with recommendations?
3000 calories - 40% of daily calories from protein, 40% from carbohydrate, and 20% from fat. That's 300 protein, 300 carbohydrates, and 67 fat.
Current meal plan is built around workouts being after work, daily, with weekends off, if not cardio only.
Breakfast
Coffee with Stevia and nondairy creamer
1 slice Ezekial Toast w/ 1 tbsp natural Skippy PB
250g egg whites w/ 1 whole egg w/ 1 slice fat-free cheese
Work Meal 1 and 2
150g whole grain brown rice
150g baked chicken breast
1/2 ounce lightly salted almonds
1 cup fresh green beans
PreWorkout Meal
200g jasmine rice
100g baked chicken breast
1 tsp garlic salt
Post workout meal
1 scoop whey protein blend w/ creatine (immediately after)
400g jasmine rice
150g baked chicken breast
Bedtime Meal
1 cup small curd cottage cheese
1/2 tsp Mio (for flavor)
Is there a real benefit to doing the fasted cardio? If so, I can commit to at least Saturday and Sunday mornings for that. Otherwise, during the work week, I'm already getting up too damn early (430 am).
Thanks!

Greens and fasted cardio
Okay, I have a cup of green beans already in both of my work meals; I will add another cup to my pre-workout meal as well.
I'll get my fasted cardio done on the weekends first thing. I understand that some whey or leucine beforehand is ideal to prevent muscle breakdown?
For fasted cardio, is 30-45 minutes of incline treadmill at about 120-130 bpm the ideal target for this?

Low Dose Tren on TRT instead?
Hey Bio,
How do you feel about incorporating some low dose Tren in lieu of a blast?
I would simply maintain my TRT dose of Test Cyp and HcG as well as a therapeutic dose of Deca (150/week).
I ask for two reasons:
1) Tren is more powerful than Test and it has better fat loss benefits.
2) I have a looming 'random' drug test and there is a fair chance that steroids are part of that test as they have the resources and there has been growing suspicion of myself and another (this other has a big mouth about it to make matters worse). If I stayed on TRT and did a low dose of Tren E (200/week), there is very little risk of detection on such a test. However, a blast would definitely show with the high test levels.
Thoughts?
This would be the planned cycle:
100 Tren E Twice Weekly
75 Deca Twice Weekly
75 Test Cyp Twice Weekly
250 HcG Twice Weekly
.25 Anastrozole Twice Weekly
Prami - Titrate up to .5 ED (bedtime)

The Deca is to help me with some injuries I am recovering from.
A mountain biking accident resulted in a concussion and several contusions and bruised ribs. Additionally, my knees have been a bit of a pain for some years now. I just started the Deca about 3 weeks ago now, so it is only starting to take effect. Does such a low dose really stand in the way of my cuts?
