    Test Fat

    How many pounds of fat do you think is contributed from taking 500mg of Test/wk for 10 weeks...is the fat caused by an increased calorie intake or both?

    Test doesn't make you fat................ It's the food that you eat and when you eat them that makes you fat.......... and yes if your take in more calories than you can burn they have to turn into something...... fat

    Yeah that's not too good.............. Post your diet when you get a chance.

    It's all about timing when you eat certain foods at what times........... like if your insulin levels are high you don't want to take any fats in at those times....

    Mudman, can u send me those bulk diets also? i want to go on a bulking cycle, but im afraid of adding too much bf, thats why i was interested in the winni and eq. it would be a great help if u could hook me up with sum good diets so i can gain muscle but not alot of bf. rite now im 6' 195lbs around 13-15%bf. or do u think i could take care of the fat issue by taking a cutting cycle later on?

    Yeah I know.............. I thought this was easier and less work.

    BigBow - Yes it can be expensive but you got to eat to grow.

    You know that excess calories can "turn" into something other than fat, right?

    I am having a hard time getting just the right mix also. I am also on a 500mg/wk of test enanthate and I am putting on good mass with some fat although I thnk it's bound to happen.

    Right there's no way that you will not put some fat on while bulking........... but putting on way more fat then muscle is not my idea of bulking............ when it comes time for me to cut I want it to be as easy as possible.

    To build muscle, you generally have to have a caloric surplus.

    Bro........... I know about nutrition......... I know what needs to be done to grow.

    This was your post:
    "You know that excess calories can "turn" into something other than fat, right?"

    EXCESS calories we are talking about.......... if they are excess then they will be stored as fat for energy for a later use.

    Are you saying that if you maintain weight at 2500 calories a day, it's not necessary to exceed that in order to gain muscle?

    No I never said that

    You see the 2 posts of the diets I use............

    Maintence calories will keep you at that weight

    Exceed maintence you will either put fat, muscle or both

    Go below maintence shed bf, could or will lose muscle, or both.

    Ok, I'd agree with that. When you said

    "and yes if your take in more calories than you can burn they have to turn into something...... fat"

    it sounded like you said that calories above maintence can only be metabolized into fat.

    I eat every 2hrs I start the day with a tablespoon of pb go to the gym have a pro shake 4 eggs 2pcs toast. The rest of the day I have only low glycemic carbs like veggies. Eating this way has changed everything for me. I keep fat off I am never craving junk and make great gains.

    I think you all are assuming your water gain is fat, post cycle this stuff melts away quickly. If you get some muscle growth activity it takes like an enourmous amount of calaries to grow a pound of muscle, like 3500 calaries but that has to be above and beyond your maintenance calaries.
