Diet coming off blast

[petemitchell30]

When coming off of a blast, what is the best diet to maintain gains without gaining fat? Is the compound blasted consequential in determining this? If so, lets say, hypothetically, the compound blasted was tren. Caloric deficiency, excess, maintenance? Macros??

Any suggestions, experience, knowledge shared is appreciated.

Keep the diet the same , if you built more muscle you need to eat more to keep strength up and muscles feed ,

I just got off a 20 week tren blast bulk , gained 50 pounds been off for almost 6 weeks or something haven't lost a pound strength actually going up still , I ate 3000 on blast and now im eating 3000 off ,

you need to eat to support your gains or you will lose them don't change nothing

if you where cutting maybe go to a small surplus and bulk clean

So you've blasted, I'm assuming to bulk? Are you cruising and want to maintain the gains or cut down fat and get leaner? I would keep the total calories the same but change the timing of the carbs. When I'm cutting or maintaining I eat little carbs in the morning. I eat just enough so there's enough sugar in my blood stream to keep me going. I eat the bulk of my complex carbs about an hour before I go to workout. I know that in a 2 hour workout session, I'm going to burn about 1500 cals so I eat enough potatoes to provide fuel for the workout. Then when I'm done with the workout, my carb intake is balanced. I eat a little protein/fats (like egg whites and cottage cheese) before I go to bed so there's something in my stomach that will fuel my body over the sleeping period. Just by changing the timing of your carbs you can stay lean or cut.

So, it was more of a recomp. Tren at 100EOD along w/ TRT. Tried to stay at around a 500 cal deficit on a 40/40/20 split. Coming off, I'd like to keep as much of my gains as possible without gaining fat.

eat at maintaince to maintain ..... eat a surplus to gain.... very simple

assuming you have you diet dialed in since you are using AAS there should be no problems how to eat on or off no diference

So, I guess to be more specific....I have read several places that tren suppresses your T3. If that is the case, should I take in less calories until it rebounds? If so, how long until T3 rebounds completely after one ceases taking tren?

I've never heard this TREN actually helps metabolize carbs , I ate 3000 on tren for 20weeks been off for 6 weeks or so eating the exact same weight has not moved

Eat exactly what you did on cycle... if you where eating in a deficit I recommend eating at maintance at the very least to maintain everything you gained on cycle , you need to eat more to support the new tissue growth more muscle means more food required

Actually with my labs it did not impact T3. It did impact T4 and I did supplement that.

This is a side. Treat the side. Diet remains the same. Maint and you are not gaining and above you gain.

Thyroids are pretty resilient. I would think your thyroids will be back to normal in a couple of weeks after the Tren comes out of your system. I do have to tell you that a female competitor killed her thyroids getting down to 4% for a competition. Yeah, the extreme diet put her thyroids to sleep and it never woke up.

yeah I hit below 4% bf myself and I think it really fucked up something I gian fat so easy now
