    You ever try carb cycling?

    It also sounds as if your not eating enough for your weight which can sliw your metabolism... I'm 193 currently and eat more than that(avg 25-30oz chicken daily 12-15 egg whites, sweet potatoes(200-250g) fresh steamed broccoli/cauliflower/asparagus(dense veggies)

    Have you gotten your thyroid checked or hormones at any recent time??

    First off congrats on the weight loss!

    Oh no I agree, w/like a 3 low 1 high, some stretch it and do 4 low 1 high, but stay the path...

    It's great to see you got BW done... Smart!

    Try looking into our diet thread what are you eating now... It's helped me stay on track tremendously...

    You are making good results... It will take some time... As you know, but also if what your doing is working you could always stay w/it til it's not then switch or try cutting cals to 500 less than your TDEE, or look into carb cycling...

    Your on the right path... Up your cardio as much as you can each time(if not each time each wk etc set sm goals achieve them and re-evaluate... As your new TDEE will be different and need adjusted when you keep losing...

    GL OP!

    Thank you. I was wondering see if what I'm doing is right I been training people for years and I'm putting the lil bit of knowledge I learned in to my self and it's been going good but just wanted other points of view. I panicked because last two week it's gotten harder to lose. But sense the anavar and prop are in use I was thinking I'm just gaining muscle and burning fat so it's not showing on the scale. Shirts fit loose in the belly tighter on the arms and shoulders. .

    It's time consuming no doubt... I'm no where I want to be... And in this game it's a marathon not a sprint(I'm just realizing this as I have some injuries but at least I can still w/o and make progress!

    Keep at it... I don't know if I woulda ran a cycle yet(it's best to get bf down to 15% max b4 you start! It may make you gain some weight but duet and training will dictate this!

    Look into why hCG should be run on cycle(it mimicks LH production and keeps your testes functioning and also makes PCT easier - helos w/a faster recovery, & also keeps your boys from atrophy)... HCG WHY IT SHOULD BE USED ON CYCLE AND HOW TO PREPARE IT(by Austinite) all his threads are updated to the newest and most safest/successful info there is...

    So everybody is just going to ignore that your almost 30% bf and running a cycle. You should have cut down to atleast 20% imo

    My personal experience I took sus and eq last cycle and lost about 25 lbs.

    I don't really care about the weight prop and var with the diet I'm doing won't reduce body fat?

    I'm worried about fat percentage going down I'm not cheating on this either my cheat day witch is sat is a 10 oz stake with veggies. Was on var for two weeks and felt a lil draw on test even on a-HD. So I started the prop to support.

    It's really all diet dependent and thsts a great cheat meal(sounds like one I would do lol), but w/proper traing/diet/cardio(to burn fat you actually want to keep your HR down in the fat burning zone(it's all dependent on age weight and height)...

    You've started... Just watch for sides as your test to estro conversion will be much higher than someone w/15%... Just keep your AI dose strict and pull bloods at wk 6 to see where you are...

    AHH you did! Sorry, i missed that the first time.

    @ lemay1985 nach has given you some solid advice. Ive ran a cycle before with a crappy diet and it turned out to be a crappy cycle. As long as your gear is legit, diet is 80% of it

    Thanks yes diet is 80% I agree 100 I'm back on carb cycling... That was what was working at first I just hate that 3 rd 0 carb day. So I changed to low carb every day that way the draw ain't much... I kill this thing on a daily and I lift pretty heavy all the time .. Should be good. Just wanted some other point of view.

    Also try going 3 low 1 high(3 low would 40% lower than TDEE Of carbs) and on the high day 15% above the TDEE carbs... That way your body is fooling itself and using your glycogen stores first... Thus dropping bf while maintaining muscle tissue... Just food for thought

    Certainly don't bother with the mast. And to be honest it's not worth doing the clen at 25%

    23% now but ok I been iffy about Clen cuz I seen a lot of good and bad things on it... Hope I'm at 20% by the end of the cycle I'm eating as clean as possible. I'm thinking of going back to that idea of carbs every day at moderate portions to.
