Water retention

**fugi1** · 12-14-2003, 11:31 AM

I've started my cutting cycle with clen and deca , and I'm worried about water retention. On my bulking cycles I always hold alot of water on my face, my mate told me to wait a couple of weeks and start taking water retention tabs, don't know which ones though, any suggestions?

Deca and Clen are not really cutting cycle bro..no flame but I hope these are only being used in conjunction with something else. deca will cause water weight gain/bloating...just the nature of it. L-dex should help with the bloat and to keep the estogen down from the excessive aromitization of Deca.
If you are in fact, cutting, I would drop the Deca, get some Test, Fina , T3, EQ, ...anything other than Deca. But as for your question, L-dex will help with the bloat.

So deca won't do anything as far as burning fat? I was told that deca can be used as a hardening drug and as a fat burner. I'll probably just stick to clen then. Thanks

Decca is def not for cuttin, clen is but that is not at all a cuttin cycle.....

To be honest i'm not bothered about being cut at the mo, i just want to burn fat and not shrink my muscles in the process. I'm dieting well with my cardio, just need a bit of help, but want to keep it simple so clen and something extra

Well with the Clen (2on 2off) and a clean diet and some cardio..along with a good w/out program, you can harden up/lose fat..save the Deca for a bulker..Deca will bloat you..If you want to cut/save muscle etc etc..look to test/fina/eq...numerous options! Clen will help burn some fat..Deca will probably add a bit!

agreed, when i use deca , even with a very strict sodium intake and anti-e's, i still bloat. i love deca.....just not to cut with.
